((Let's try something silly...))
Go find the Doctor or if I can't find him, send him a message. Ask the Doc if he can make me a horse. ((Note: By "make me a horse" I mean make some sort of flesh abomination for me. Not turn me into a fleshy abomination. And definitely not turn me into a pony.))
Specifically:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Standard:
-It should be able to survive in space. Preferably be able to survive any abuse a MKI can.
-It should be able to run fast.
-It shouldn't have too much armor, since that would make it too heavy to be of any use, but it should be able to regenerate from most hits fairly quickly provided it has food.
-It should be able to obey simple commands, like a well trained attack dog (come here, jump, kill them, stop, go left, stay, be cute, don't eat your teammates, etc.). An implant will allow it to receive commands by radio.

Extras:
-It should be able to understand more complex commands.
-It should have implants that allow for a direct video feed of everything it sees.
-It should be able to carry a battlesuit or at least an exoskeleton.
-It should preferably look lizard-like. Like a big Piecewise or like a big Komodo dragon, but with legs designed to be able to run and jump high.
-It should have some sort of fleshy wings that allow it to glide small distances, something like this: Common Gliding Lizard
-Some redundant systems to increase survivability like partition membranes, secondary heart and brain, etc would be nice.
-It should be able to jump high and climb walls (either with some sort of adhesive or by digging with its claws).
-It should be armored with some kind of lightweight material that will allow it to move fast AND survive light weapons fire like Gauss rifles and laser rifles.
-It should have heavy weapon mounts, for things like Cutting Lasers, Gauss Cannons or Gatling Gauss Rifles. Bonus points if it can use those weapons independently.
-It should have big sharp scary teeth and claws and a scary roar. Bonus points if those can tear light armor apart. Bonus points if it can digest metal and other stuff(within reason) and use them for armor repairs or weapon ammo.
-Bonus points if it can also be used to aid teammates (e.g. carry toolboxes or dispense medical stuff from its teeth-saliva-other organ). It should probably be able to carry artillery and aid in construction in its spare (read: not with a rider) time.
-Extra bonus points if it can breath fire(there are some bacteria that can create a gas that ignites the moment it comes in contact with oxygen but I can't find the article I read it in right now). Super extra bonus points if it can breath namite or white phosphorus or similar. ultra super extra bonus if it can breathe some sort of super oxidizer like chlorine trifluoride. Mega ultra super extra bonus if it can shoot a super heavy laser or high energy projectors from its mouth..

((I don't really need this since I got a mobility battlesuit, just doing this for fun. Perhaps after I train it, I could donate it to someone using the melee or the heavy weapons kind of battlesuit. It was one of the things I wanted the Doctor to build me since the first mission and I want to see if it was ever possible.

I guess I could ask Xan to do it, but I'd prefer not to.))

((CRAP ON A POGO STICK.
I wanted him to make my "angel" into a ammo generator
Basic idea started when I thought about how "angels" tended to be armed with flaming swords, so I imagined it would have some organ that produced gasoline or somesuch from food to spread on the blade and ignite.
THEN I thought, why not expand on that idea and include things like gauss generators and such so it could effectively become a walking reload station.
GARGLE YOU STOLE MY THOUGHTS!))

GARGLE YOU STOLE MY THOUGHTS!))

((Didn't you invent stealing thoughts?

Also, a mechanical horse would be superior. Heavier on the maintenance, but superior.))

[Parisbre56]

((Yeah, I know. But you have to think about the... Hmm... I don't know what the right word is.
Anyway, I need a fleshy horse because a cowboy-lone ranger guy should have a horse that is also his best friend, like Lucky Luke and Jolly Jumper or Bravestarr and Thirty Thirty. And it's harder to get friendly with a robotic animal. Fleshy animals are easier to understand and manage. Not to mention build and maintain. The horse should be like a dog.
And maintenance is a concern. If it is wounded in battle, it is easier to have your horse eat some of the enemy troops to regenerate then find some tech and the necessary spare parts. And there's nothing preventing me from making it a cyber horse. In fact, a cyber horse is what I have asked for.))

[Unholy_Pariah]

((While a mechanical one would be far superior for fabrication purposes id say a biological horse with redundant organs, hypergolic fluid glands, a mithril carapace (possibly pill machine induced), enhanced brain functions and increased cellular regeneration would be far better as a whole.

Its not like you cant surgically implant a titanium encased generator in its body then mount energy weapon turrets on its shoulders.))

((It'll have more trouble controlling the turrets though. And combining an organic creature with complicated machinery gives you a double helping of both the advantages and the drawbacks. It would require both food and maintenance to function, if injured it would require both healing and repair, etc. If you're using a biological creature as nothing but an equipment frame, you could just use a fully robotic one with an organic brain (see: Artee) and skip half the hassle. A robotic unit cannot be "injured" - it suffers damage. It won't feel pain, it won't burn up, it won't succumb to hostile bioweapons or something as trivial as being accidentally cannibalized by another of its kind. You pay for those things with having to manually repair it, and with the absence of the questionable enjoyment of having a living, breathing embodiment of death and nightmares as your personal battle mount, but Anton would find robots to just be much more practical.))

[Unholy_Pariah]

((I dunno, a pill enhanced exoskeleton seems pretty condusive to not burning up and not getting cannibalized. Also the turrets would not be hard to use as they could be operated via AI like my hardmounts and those gunner bots.

And why would it need healing? if you get it from the doc its gonna be able to have trauma partition membranes, redundant organs, increased regen, genehacked pain receptors and all sorts of other genetic modifications that make it pretty much immune to all but heavy weapons and explosives.
All you would need to do is repair the mechanical components once in a while... can sharkmist be used to make self repairing equipment?

[BFEL]

can sharkmist be used to make self repairing equipment?

((NANOBOTS DON'T WORK THAT WAY. STOPPIT, WE DISCUSSED THIS, GWG *JUST* ASKED FOR THE LINK TO THE EXPLAINS!))

[Sean Mirrsen]

((Plus, sharkmist is just a very creative bacteria. Being able to form protocrystalline growths and self-replicate does not qualify it for repair work more complex than patching superficial holes in armor plate. Even then, temporary, as the constructs it makes are not particularly sturdy.))

[Unholy_Pariah]

((Iwasnt expecting it to make turrets or anything,  just stuff like sword blades and armor or structural components.))

@Syvarris/Caellath: Yep, that's what I get for not having read but a fraction of the lore and then making my app at 2AM. 

RE: The Planet; it having lost contact for a while and then being re-integrated rather than subjugated sounds perfect. Same with the stasis pods thing- no reason they couldn't keep her under while doing the procedures for the shock module etc. I'll cover it. 

Piecewise: As long as you don't mind, I've edited the stats on my character sheet as follows:
-Changed Profession to Fleshtech
- -1 to Handiwork and Medical Tech
- +1 to Conventional and Unconventional Weapons

Deep within the haze of a stasis pod, a pair of robotic eyes flicker to life. Even if had seemed like only an instant, it had been far too long. But where would she emerge? A museum? Some secret government lab? Buried in a radioactive crater in a post-apocalyptic wasteland? Time to find out.

Once feeling returns to her limbs and the door to the stasis chamber hisses open, Erin practically leaps to the edge amid a manic cackle.
( ╬ヮ╬) "Hellooooooo, Future!" Quickly, she snaps her left arm into place, twisting and flexing it a bit to make sure everything's in full working order. She didn't hear any guns being pointed at her yet- definitely an auspicious sign!
( ╠ー╣) _{"Suck it, HR-whateverthefucks.} Now--" Her smug smirk drops instantly, replaced by an expression of bemusement, and she unconsciously reaches up to crank at the screw in her head, producing a soft ratcheting sound, as she looks around the chamber.

Some kind of... barracks, fitted with stasis cells? More importantly, this wasn't her pod. Had she been tampered with? Just how long had she been out, anyway?
( ═_═) "...Where the bright blue Hell am I?" She demands of nobody in particular.

[TCM]

And with another new addition to the team, the de facto Greeter makes her way to the statis area. Upon arrival, May comes across some lady naked and gooey from her second exiting of a womb-chamber.
"Hi! Welcome to A.R.M!"

[Doomblade187]

Noticing May rush off to greet a new arrival, Denzel just sighs, having just finished his work. "Always more of us, aren't there? Oh well, more bodies for the crew. Maybe this one will actually know how to fight, too."

[Pancaek]

I see, I'll just have to hope to get some competent teammates when the UWM comes.

Another question, if you would indulge me. During the VR training, you told chin and me that a 1 foot sphere, heated up about 100-150 degrees takes the least amount of effort with the microwave amp. Does the MMA also have someting like this, a 'stadard' setting if you will?

Love and Huggles, Pancaek

Send to AM, recieve wisdom

"Oi, wake up"
"What?"
"You've just been standing in this hallway. Not moving. I think that whole internal messaging thing you robot people do might freak some people out. Also, May just passed, beware."

[HailFire]

Erin stares briefly at the welcoming committee before responding, looking her up and down, hand paused mid-turn.
...Well, whoever this bimbo was, she supposed, and whatever it was she was on about couldn't be all bad...

( ═︿╩) "Welcome to the Who-What now?" She replies somewhat groggily, as she starts wringing her hair back out into the tank.

Spoiler:  OOC Edit (click to show/hide)

Sorry I started responding so late, by the way; internet went down yesterday morning, and we thought the modem had died- fortunately, it seems to have miraculously revived itself rather than forcing me to wait until tomorrow for a new one.
