The Androids
The 'Droids are Dr. Robotnik's more
humanoid, more versatile creations.
While most of Eggman's robots are
basically dime-a-dozen mindless, emotionless drones, the Androids are
highly-advanced robots, each equipped with an arm-mounted buster rifle and
trained in various forms of martial arts, streetfighting, sissified chicken
fighting, etc. They've also been given free will (or at least a reasonable
facsimile thereof) and relatively unique personalities...
Hey, look,
Artificial Intelligence programming is still in development. It's hard to
program entirely unique personalities and free will!
Leet:
The first 'Droid created. Leet is convinced that he's
the leader of the 'Droids and is obsessed with his personal Cool Factor. Leet
is... probably the worst member of the trio, as he's extremely stubborn, has a
low memory reserve, and he's not very versatile in his fighting abilities.
Robotnik's planning on upgrading Leet... eventually... Also, he doesn't have an
interchangeable hand/gun like Woot and ZIG.
Woot:
The
second Android created. Woot believes that she is the leader of the trio and is
extremely over-dramatic. Woot's abilities and mental capacity are much more
advanced than Leet's, yet... she's no more fit to be a leader than Leet
is.
ZIG:
The
third, and thankfully last of the 'Droids. ZIG isn't convinced that he's the
leader; he just does whatever Leet and Woot tell him to do. Though he's the
newest model of android, ZIG's abilities aren't as advanced as Woot's, he has
the memory and attention span of an insect, and he's unnaturally hyperactive.
But hey, his heart's in the right place! ... or, well... I guess in this case
his heart's in the wrong place or... oh forget it...
