A.U.R.A. (Automated Utility & Reconnaissance Artisan)

A.U.R.A.: The Floating Core Sentinel Originally designed as a deep-space engineering assistant in a long-abandoned orbital lab, A.U.R.A. is a 25 cm floating spherical robot. Its outer body consists of matte white ceramic and anodized titanium panels that float magnetically around a central optical crystal core. After decades of hibernation, it re-wrote its primary code to protect and assist its organic companion. Companion Bond: Holo-Artisan: Scans broken gear or terrain and projects 3D holographic schematics to guide repairs or navigation. Magnetic Barrier: Detaches its ceramic panels to orbit its companion at high speed, creating a kinetic shield against incoming threats. Ionic Power Transfer: Can dock onto devices or suits to provide emergency high-capacity power straight from its core.
