   * **Butler Bots:** Configured as personal assistants, [[Butler Bots|Butler Bots]] served high-ranking officials and wealthy settlers, managing household tasks, preparing meals, and ensuring optimal living conditions for their owners.
   * **Cleaning Bots:** Equipped with sanitation tools, [[Cleaning Bots|Cleaning Bots]] ensured hygiene and cleanliness in living quarters, communal spaces, and key shipboard areas.

   * **Medical Bots:**  Programmed with comprehensive medical knowledge, [[Medical Bots|Medical Bots]]  provided diagnostics, minor medical procedures, and patient monitoring. Their role became crucial after the crash, as they assisted in early settlement healthcare. While all other Service Bots were prohibited in the Gamma Age, Medical Bots remain operational at the Medical Station in New Kourou, where they play an essential role in the [[federal_health_care_system|Federal Health Care System (FHCS)]].
   * **Agricultural Bots:** Designed for farming and crop management, [[Agricultural Bots|Agricultural Bots]] handled planting, harvesting, irrigation, and soil care, ensuring food production remained sustainable.
-  *   * **Maintenance Bots:** Specializing in mechanical diagnostics and system upkeep, [[Maintenance Bots|Maintenance Bots]] were deployed in engineering bays, calibration stations, and utility tunnels. These bots performed preventive maintenance on power conduits, QFB interfaces, service hatches, ventilation systems, and robotic components. Equipped with multi-joint appendages, welding units, diagnostic scanners, and modular tool cartridges, they were indispensable in keeping the Last Frontier and later exohuman settlements operational. Though non-humanoid in design, they were highly autonomous and widely respected among technicians for their reliability and adaptability.

 ===== Appearance and Design =====
-Unlike earlier Service Bot models developed on Earth, Service Bots on the Last Frontier varied widely in design, based on efficiency, energy consumption, and user interaction needs.
+Service Bots fall into two broad chassis families — Humanoid and Non‑Humanoid — each optimised for distinct use‑cases.
+==== Humanoid Models (Approachable & Interactive) ====
+Humanoid Service Bots approximate adult human stature (1.4–1.9 m, 75–120 kg) and are favoured wherever social comfort or manual dexterity is paramount.
+**Humanoid Bot Types**
+  * **Butler Bots** – bipedal frames with articulated five‑finger manipulators, courtesy‑grade synthetic dermal panels, and programmable “face‑plates” capable of 50+ micro‑expressions.
+  * **Medical Bots** – sterile‑white chassis with recessed medical tool bays and soft‑tone speech synthesisers tuned for patient reassurance.
+  * **Guarding Bots ** – armour‑reinforced humanoid shells, helmet‑style sensor suites, and retractable compliance staves.
+**Materials & Finish**
+  * **Endoskeleton:** Titanium‑Duraflex lattice for high strength‑to‑weight efficiency.
+  * **Outer Shell:** Poly‑ceramic composite plates over critical joints; optional synthetic polymer “skin” where tactile interaction is expected.
+  * **Aesthetic Livery:** Colour‑coded plating (e.g., butler black, medical white) plus removable fabric garments reflecting social roles.
+  * **Expressive Systems:** Tier‑2 emotion‑emulation firmware, full‑range speakers, and optical bands capable of subtle colour shifts to indicate status.
-==== 1. Humanoid Models (Optimized for Human Interaction) ====
+==== Non-Humanoid Models (Task‑Centric & Rugged) ====
-Designed to be approachable and relatable, enhancing social integration.
+Non‑humanoid bots prioritise terrain handling, payload capacity, or durability over human familiarity.
-  * **Facial Features:** Simplified synthetic faces with light-emitting optics, capable of basic expressions for comfort and trust.
+**Non‑Humanoid Bot Types**
-  * **Body Structure:** Five-fingered hands, five-toed feet for human-like dexterity, Duraflex Alloy Exteriors, resistant to minor damage (self-repairing to a limited degree).
-  * **Uniforms**: Functional uniforms (e.g., Butler Bots wore formal attire; Medical Bots wore scrubs).
-  * **Speech & Communication:** Equipped with speech synthesizers capable of politeness, tone modulation, and conversation adaptation.
-==== 2. Non-Humanoid Models (Optimized for Efficiency & Performance) ====
+  * **Cleaning Bots** – disc or cricket‑leg mini‑bots that navigate tight gaps and low‑clearance spaces.
+  * **Agricultural Bots** – six‑legged “field crab” platforms designed for uneven soil and long‑range patrols with telescopic sprayer arms.
+  * **Maintenance Bots** – tracked “tool caddies” with 360‑degree turret rigs and interchangeable multi‑joint armatures.
+  * **Manual Labor Bots (Industrial Variant)** – quadrupedal loaders or crawler cranes rated for multi‑tonne payloads.
-  * Quadrupedal and Hexapodal Designs for stability on rugged terrain.
+**Materials & Finish**
-  * Crawler Mode (Tracked Variants) for heavy-lifting tasks and construction.
-  * Retractable Multi-Tool Arms, equipped with task-specific toolsets.
+  * **Chassis:** Hardened alloy monocoques or carbon‑steel tubing paired with shock‑damped servo clusters.
+  * **Mobility Systems:** Independent suspension pods, articulated treads, or micro‑thrusters for zero‑G maintenance.
+  * **Tool Mounts:** Omni‑Rail connectors that accept welders, irrigation nozzles, or weapon hard‑points (pre‑ban).
