It is a species of robot more advanced than the industrial age Clockwork Automata, originating from the bleak future of its fellow Anachrononauts.

 **If you don't sleep you will eventually become fatigued. After 3000 turns, you will get the message "You feel fatigued" (if you are above 10 pw). This will begin to drain power slowly. If you go below 10 pw while fatigued, you get the message "You feel extremely fatigued".
 **Once you hit no power, you get the message "You feel like you are about to pass out." At the start of any turn where you have 0 energy, your system may force a "sleep mode" to recover, so be careful of that.  The per-turn odds of this occurring are 1/your level.

+*Emergency speed:  This increases movement speed greatly - you now run at 3x speed.  It costs 1 energy per turn of movement, which is several moves.  Any non-move action turns it off, including jumping. Shift-moving and autotravel are allowed. This takes a turn to enable, so you will not immediately be able to run away just after turning it on.
 *Recharger:  This costs 10 energy and acts as an uncursed scroll of charging.
 *Combo:  This is used to deliver an attack and its effects vary depending on the wielded weapons.  It is not usable if you are wielding 2 weapons at once, but a shield is allowed with a one-handed weapon.  Each level of skill in your wielded weapon unlocks one step in the combo, and the ability costs 1 energy per step used (therefore, it's good to cancel out of the combo if the target dies).
