Daemon/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Acceptable Professional Targets: At one point the Daemon's agents carry out a massacre of spammers.
  • Nightmare Fuel: The fact that the Daemon is not self-aware or intelligent is brought up a number of times with certain characters who realize that once it has them in its power, there is nothing they can do to argue or reason with it. They are told that any deviation from the script will trigger the "you die" action. Not to mention the fact that, based on the answers they give to the script, they may die anyway.
    • The murderous, autonomous, armored, solid-tired Hummer that is essentially invulnerable to anything but anti-tank weapons. And is completely possible to build in reality.[1]
    • The Razorbacks. * shudder* They are intentionally designed to inspire terror, especially once you've seem them in action. Jet black, armored, autonomous racing bikes covered in shark-fin-like metal blades and shamanic runes and symbols, 3-foot long blades mounted on articulated servos instead of handlebars and blinding lasers to incapacitate you. They can operate in close-quarters (i.e. inside buildings), their hardened blades are sharp and fast enough to cut a man to pieces and then cut the pieces to pieces before they hit the ground. There is no attempt to stealth them, so you can hear them coming. And Loki has a semi trailer full of them.
      • Well, no attempt to stealth them... unless they're running on the internal flywheel drive, which can sustain them in complete silence and darkness for a few minutes. Good luck guarding that base, unfortunate mercenary.
  1. Good luck programming the damn thing, though!
