Droid

Droid – Droids are a part of the ID world - some appear to be quite human while others look mechanical, like robots or machines. They make reliable witnesses as they can provide playback from their memory databanks when necessary (though their memory can be tampered with); they can be programmed to perform numerous functions and may, or may not, be anatomically correct. A twenty-four/seven is a droid that is programmed for full operation without required rest or recharge periods.^[1]
