Petra-torian! How shall we deal with her?
🕑 Added 2025-01-30 00:50:33 +0000 UTC
Keller goes over to interact with our damaged Praetorian in the corridor, finding out from passive Securi-Orb information that she's a part of a harvest team and that the injuries recieved were from a particularly spicy one.
From the Praetorian herself, you can see she's so damaged, she can't even properly activate her holo-emitters.
I guess the question is- what kind of attitude do you want to take with her?
Also, write in comments down below on things you might want to ask her, or make inquiries into the medical technicians in charge of her. All the below conversation points will ideally be explored at some point, but this creates a bit of priority, and ideas as to what insert art or story elements this might introduce from this interaction.
(Attachments contain a couple of MP4's of the glitch effect and passive stance.)

That's really cool looking! The effect came out great. I'd say my biggest question would be what happened? Especially coming flesh off some brain damage, this is another moment to seed doubt and change opinions. Depending on what happened and why, it raises follow-up questions about following proper methodology, risk-taking and pressure to perform, or about the limitations of Thrallworks as whole. It may be that the private question raised here, that's not actually asked outright, is where does fault for the incident truly lie? There might not be a straight or easy answer of course.

I'd ask about why she's trying to activate her holo-emitters. Are they glitched and she can't turn them off? Is she diagnosing them? Because if not, she can just leave them off, she's back at Thrallworks, no need to hide her form, and the glitchy form isn't much better than her base form.
