DEVBLOG #6 - BRAKU

BRAKU is the harvester golem of the INSINYUR, a work of robotic craftsmanship over 1000 years old and counting. Specially designed for The Harvest ritual and unique in its creation.

This robust and lethal relic of war is the mechanical representation of the INSINYUR, a species for which hand-to-hand combat is totally out of its possibilities. Among their creations, BRAKU is the longest-lived and with the fewest systemic failures recorded. This surprising condition is suspected to be due to BRAKU's continued exposure to the essence of O'Ree-Jin.

Among the members of the Commonwealth Drifters (Duke), frequent allies of the INSINYUR, there is a belief that BRAKU has reached a superior state of a simple mechanical golem, and also that a cybernetic symbiosis between essence and machine has been produced inside it, creating a unique new way of life in O'Ree-Jin.

In addition to its large storage capacity, which makes it a living essence bounty when it’s full, BRAKU has an armor made of Tahan, unique material from INSINYUR's planet super resistant to damage. Although he started out as an efficient peaceful harvester, his longevity has led him to undergo changes, updates, and improvements by its creators, adapting to the increasing aggressiveness among Breachers during The Harvest ritual.

Its current version features an electromagnetic shield system, powerful mobility, and a devastating subatomic particle heavy machine gun. Which makes him a fearsome rival to avoid and a precious ally to cling to.

The INSINYUR is one of the most technologically advanced civilizations in the galaxy. Its engineers, with deep knowledge of robotics accumulated over centuries, consider themselves authentic techno-artisans of this discipline, developing a culture around these creations, beyond their simple usefulness, and becoming a key to their world understanding.

All their golems are unique pieces of engineering, creativity, and functionality, they are never mass-produced, it is the techno-craftsmen's way of giving identity and meaning to their creations.

This way of understanding and building their society is a consequence of their fragile and small body, which has forced them to fully develop their already incredible cognitive abilities.

The INSINYUR are capable of concentrating the knowledge of all their ancestors, accessing it and assimilating it instantly through their PERPUSTAKAAN, which allows them to exponentially enhance their research and innovations.
