Robots
Robots are artificial life forms made from inorganic materials. They were created initially to make life easier for Mortals, but as technology progressed, people started to develop AIs or Artificial Intelligences for these robots. Basically this serves as a "brain" for the robot. Because of this, robots have become smarter, and so much smarter than they have become their own individual self. It has long been debated in Pelepia if robots with AI's should be considered real citizens, since they were created artificially by Mortals. Since then, robots have been fighting for these rights, and some have been known to go rogue if they are denied freedom from their creators.
All robots are genderless and do not reproduce. However, unless it was already programmed in their AI, robots with higher levels of thinking can often assign their own gender of choice. Almost all robots are made with some kind of metallic material, making them automatically affiliated with the Metal element. There are some exceptions however.
Every robot has some sort of charger outlet that they use to keep themselves going. Many energy outlets have been placed around cities and neighborhoods in their environment so they wont have to worry about dying. If they run out of energy, they will pretty much be "dead" unless someone gets them to an outlet to charge up their energy again. They may also die if their inner mechanisms get damaged or worn from overuse or rust. Otherwise they can last for thousands of years if cared well for. Unlimited energy sources are extremely rare and expensive, so usually only extremely important, high class robots are allowed to have these.
The majority of the robot population lives and is created in Shalabahala and Zathurek. However, many of them have been distributed to other parts of the world. However, you probably will not find robots in low technological areas like Asumara and Vulkania because of the lack of an sufficient energy source..
There are three types of robots: Service Robots, Obedient Robots and Robots with AI's
Service Robots are robots with little to no brainpower and only do what they were created to do. This can include appliances, machines and robot pets.
Obedient Robots are robots with a high level of thinking and brainpower, but do not think for themselves and obey their users or creators. They are however, capable of learning new skills and gathering new information. Many of them have domestic jobs such as being housekeepers and butlers or factory workers, social service workers, and no-skill labor jobs.
Robots with AIs are robots that have their own free will and can think abstractly and for themselves. Many of them have thier own lives and careers.
