Overview
KSR-05, Kothar Simulant, Runner, Version 5.
Earlier versions of runners (before KDE built New Damascus) were originally designed by Trinity Sky as part of their SkyShield urban security platform to stop criminals from escaping crime scenes. It was a wonderful innovation at the time, made to keep the public safe, as they were fast, efficient, and did not get injuries like a normal human would. KDE stole their original designs to make new modified and “strengthened” versions of runners, to be strong enough to catch any simulants or humans that aim to get near the wall, and get rid of them.
Character Design Requirements
A sleek, aerodynamic black head (looks like a “Time Trial Helmet”) that has a ring of blue lights around the circumference. It’s build is extremely light, no armour is present allowing you to see the exposed hydraulics. Its legs are a pair of running blades, and on the “thigh” of one of the legs is an exhaust pipe that runs to the chassis of the machine.
