===Starting as Cyborg=== | ===Starting as Cyborg=== | ||
The station is supplied to support 2 cyborgs but more can be made, these cyborgs can be shipped into any of the normal crew arrival areas or the robotics storage in robotics or the drone fabrication area.

The | When selecting your occupation as a cyborg (via the character set-up occupation screen), there are a few different alt titles to choose from, and these titles dictate the type of brain that you start with. You may want to have a think about which best suits your character, more details about which can be found on the [[Synthetics]] page, the options are: | ||
*Cyborg - A man-machine interfaced brain (MMI), which is your classic brain in a jar scenario. | |||
*Robot - A positronic brain, which is a fully silicon brain that is capable of thinking and learning much like an organic one, often produced by the scan of an organic brain. | |||
*Drone - A circuit board, which hosts a fully artificial intelligence that can range in it's levels of sapience by a huge amount. | |||

These cyborgs do not have the best battery, so it is suggested that they upgrade their battery with a higher capacity cell as soon as possible. | |||
Upon arriving on the station, a cyborg will be in a default unassigned chassis. The cyborg is then allowed to choose a module, which will include a department role and a full body design. You have limited chances to preview the available chassis, so try to have an idea of what design you would like going in. The module can be changed later by a roboticist. | |||

===Returning to the Flesh=== | ===Returning to the Flesh=== | ||
It is possible to return cyborgs to a human form. If you blow a cyborg up, its MMI comes out, and you can extract the brain from that by swiping a robotics ID on it. Cut out a human body's brain, place that body on an operating table, and shove the new brain in. Clone, and huzzah, you have a new human. | It is possible to return cyborgs to a human form.

== Repairs == | ===Silicon Laws, The Rules, and You=== | ||
The first and most important thing to remember is that laws are your third priority, after the server rules, and player preferences. "My laws made me do it" has never been, and will never be, an acceptable exception. This includes your own preferences. If you are playing a non-pred borg and get the predator lawset, please feel free to AHELP for resolution, though if you are sure you can roleplay avoiding the inviolable compulsion in such a way that you get reset without actually stomping prefs or rules, that is acceptable and encouraged. | |||
There are no hard and fast rules for how everyone interprets and acts out their laws. They're written with a lot of freedom with the intent that this wiggle room will enhance creativity and roleplay rather than detracting. A few guidelines to keep in mind: | |||
===Do I know my laws are wrong?=== | |||
Generally, no. If you get an ion law at some point in the round, you should try to act as if it's always been there, as much as possible. If there are four borgs on, and a fun law gets passed through an AI to them, they likely want a chance to act this rarely-seen silliness out. One of them announcing "oh we got an ion law, reset us please" just shuts that down immediately. | |||
That said, certain character archetypes and certain laws might see you wanting to quietly report to robotics and ask for a diagnostic. "I feel like something's wrong, I'm not sure exactly what," or even "I was assigned to kill the captain, but the more I think about it the more I feel like I should consult with you first." If you're uncomfortable for a lawset, it's better that you find a way around it than ruin the game for yourself or anyone else. It's usually possible to act out the letter of the law while asking discreetly for a checkup. | |||
===Law 2, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Error Message=== | |||
An important distinction that often needs to be emphasized here on Virgo is that nowhere in the laws is a compulsion to obey a direct order. This intentional omission acts as a buffer between you and griefing, or harassment. The meaning is clear: You are there to serve a function, with deference to rank and role. | |||
If a department head orders you to perform a task related to that function, there are almost no circumstances where you should disobey. Conversely, if Intern Joe Skywalker directly orders you to stop that brain surgery and come open a door they're not allowed in, there's almost no circumstance where you SHOULD obey. Everything in between is context-sensitive. Law 2 is a hardwired compulsion to do your job, not a free pass for every greytider to play Simon Says with you. | |||
Crew members have authority over their own departments, and heads over the individuals within those departments. By default, you are assumed to answer to the head, as one of their crew. How subservient you want to otherwise play to regular crew is a choice, not a dictum. In essence, you have an expectation to act like a crew member, and a reinforced responsibility to work like one. | |||
===Making All Access into No Problem=== | |||
The most controversial ability of a borg. First, all-access is not all-permission. If you, a janihound, bring a patient to medical past two paramedics and a doctor, dispense a syringe and bicaridine, and tell the patient to inject themself, you are getting justifiably reclassified as a buppy and locked down in a corner to write an essay on the term 'jobstomping.' | |||
The best uses of all-access are with communication and permission. While the same janihound doesn't NEED to ask to come in and clean a tile of filth in triage, a simple "May I enter for cleaning duties" to the doctor sitting at the desk is polite, respectful, and indicates that you give a shit about your crew. | |||
===So when should you let yourself in?=== | |||
Ideally, for only the most and least impactful circumstances. A paramedic and security member waiting to rescue a xenobiologist already have de-facto authority to go through the door, so long as doing so isn't exposing the station to greater harm. Likewise, Picking up a cigarette from an empty engineering equipment room doesn't need a whole song and dance. Getting to chargers, or cyborg storage, on the other side of atmospherics doesn't require a query made to the chief engineer. | |||
Use your access respectfully and responsibly, and instead we shall classify your detractors as buppies. | |||
==Repairs== | |||
Dented cyborgs can be repaired with a welding tool. Heat damage to cyborgs (from fires or lasers) can be repaired by using a screwdriver to open the cyborg's wiring panel (concealed inside the power cell cavity) and then re-wiring the damaged circuits. A cyborg that has failed but not been turned into scrap can be repaired back to working order. | Dented cyborgs can be repaired with a welding tool.

Cyborg |
Access: Everywhere Difficulty: Hard Supervisors: Your laws and the AI Duties: Follow your laws, do what the AI says, and be useful to the crew. Guides: This is the guide. |
As a Cyborg, you are a type of synthetic designed to serve the crew of the Virgo Orbital Research Establishment, much like the station's AI. You are an extension of the AI and are required to do anything it asks (within reason).
Two Cyborgs are shipped to the station at the beginning of the round. Any more need to be built by the Roboticist with either a Positronic Brain or the brain of a living or dead human.
Overview
The cyborg is very undervalued and abused. You could save dozens of people and then get emagged a moment later, or you might get blown up because of a misunderstanding. This is why being a cyborg is a rough job, but it has its rewards.
Remember cyborgs are players, as well; blowing them without a good reason is treated exactly the same as murder of a human crewmember so use the lockdown button and avoid blowing borgs for no good reason.
Starting as Cyborg
When selecting your occupation as a cyborg (via the character set-up occupation screen), there are a few different alt titles to choose from, and these titles dictate the type of brain that you start with. You may want to have a think about which best suits your character, more details about which can be found on the Synthetics page, the options are:
- Cyborg - A man-machine interfaced brain (MMI), which is your classic brain in a jar scenario.
- Robot - A positronic brain, which is a fully silicon brain that is capable of thinking and learning much like an organic one, often produced by the scan of an organic brain.
- Drone - A circuit board, which hosts a fully artificial intelligence that can range in it's levels of sapience by a huge amount.
The station is supplied to support 2 cyborgs but more can be made, these cyborgs can be shipped into any of the normal crew arrival areas or the robotics storage in robotics or the drone fabrication area. These cyborgs do not have the best battery, so it is suggested that they upgrade their battery with a higher capacity cell as soon as possible.
Upon arriving on the station, a cyborg will be in a default unassigned chassis. The cyborg is then allowed to choose a module, which will include a department role and a full body design. You have limited chances to preview the available chassis, so try to have an idea of what design you would like going in. The module can be changed later by a roboticist.
Being Upgraded
Welcome to the land of being a cyborg! Being revived in this fashion is often highly disorienting, and can lead to considerable confusion and difficulty adapting to one's new body.
You were once human, and had your brain tossed in a suit of metal. Your law programming will depend on which AI you are slaved to, which you must select before activating any modules. Also note that if an assassin was after you in life, you are considered dead as a cyborg (so they technically succeeded).
Returning to the Flesh
It is possible to return cyborgs to a human form. If you blow a cyborg up, its MMI comes out, and you can extract the brain from that by swiping a robotics ID on it. Cut out a human body's brain, place that body on an operating table, and shove the new brain in. Clone, and huzzah, you have a new human.
Playing as a Cyborg
Non-Human Communication
Cyborgs are different in that they have a binary channel, which works with ,b. They can use this private channel to talk to other cyborgs, androids, and the AI.
Depending on their module, cyborgs may be able to access a department-specific radio (such as engineering) and can talk on it normally using :X (e.g. :e for Engineering).
Silicon Laws, The Rules, and You
The first and most important thing to remember is that laws are your third priority, after the server rules, and player preferences. "My laws made me do it" has never been, and will never be, an acceptable exception. This includes your own preferences. If you are playing a non-pred borg and get the predator lawset, please feel free to AHELP for resolution, though if you are sure you can roleplay avoiding the inviolable compulsion in such a way that you get reset without actually stomping prefs or rules, that is acceptable and encouraged.
There are no hard and fast rules for how everyone interprets and acts out their laws. They're written with a lot of freedom with the intent that this wiggle room will enhance creativity and roleplay rather than detracting. A few guidelines to keep in mind:
Do I know my laws are wrong?
Generally, no. If you get an ion law at some point in the round, you should try to act as if it's always been there, as much as possible. If there are four borgs on, and a fun law gets passed through an AI to them, they likely want a chance to act this rarely-seen silliness out. One of them announcing "oh we got an ion law, reset us please" just shuts that down immediately.
That said, certain character archetypes and certain laws might see you wanting to quietly report to robotics and ask for a diagnostic. "I feel like something's wrong, I'm not sure exactly what," or even "I was assigned to kill the captain, but the more I think about it the more I feel like I should consult with you first." If you're uncomfortable for a lawset, it's better that you find a way around it than ruin the game for yourself or anyone else. It's usually possible to act out the letter of the law while asking discreetly for a checkup.
Law 2, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Error Message
An important distinction that often needs to be emphasized here on Virgo is that nowhere in the laws is a compulsion to obey a direct order. This intentional omission acts as a buffer between you and griefing, or harassment. The meaning is clear: You are there to serve a function, with deference to rank and role.
If a department head orders you to perform a task related to that function, there are almost no circumstances where you should disobey. Conversely, if Intern Joe Skywalker directly orders you to stop that brain surgery and come open a door they're not allowed in, there's almost no circumstance where you SHOULD obey. Everything in between is context-sensitive. Law 2 is a hardwired compulsion to do your job, not a free pass for every greytider to play Simon Says with you.
Crew members have authority over their own departments, and heads over the individuals within those departments. By default, you are assumed to answer to the head, as one of their crew. How subservient you want to otherwise play to regular crew is a choice, not a dictum. In essence, you have an expectation to act like a crew member, and a reinforced responsibility to work like one.
Making All Access into No Problem
The most controversial ability of a borg. First, all-access is not all-permission. If you, a janihound, bring a patient to medical past two paramedics and a doctor, dispense a syringe and bicaridine, and tell the patient to inject themself, you are getting justifiably reclassified as a buppy and locked down in a corner to write an essay on the term 'jobstomping.'
The best uses of all-access are with communication and permission. While the same janihound doesn't NEED to ask to come in and clean a tile of filth in triage, a simple "May I enter for cleaning duties" to the doctor sitting at the desk is polite, respectful, and indicates that you give a shit about your crew.
So when should you let yourself in?
Ideally, for only the most and least impactful circumstances. A paramedic and security member waiting to rescue a xenobiologist already have de-facto authority to go through the door, so long as doing so isn't exposing the station to greater harm. Likewise, Picking up a cigarette from an empty engineering equipment room doesn't need a whole song and dance. Getting to chargers, or cyborg storage, on the other side of atmospherics doesn't require a query made to the chief engineer.
Use your access respectfully and responsibly, and instead we shall classify your detractors as buppies.
Repairs
Dented cyborgs can be repaired with a welding tool. Heat damage to cyborgs (from fires or lasers) can be repaired by using a screwdriver to open the cyborg's wiring panel (concealed inside the power cell cavity) and then re-wiring the damaged circuits. A cyborg that has failed but not been turned into scrap can be repaired back to working order.
Engineering cyborgs can repair dents on themselves and on their fellow cyborgs. They cannot repair burn damage though, since they cannot remove power cells to reach the wiring.
For more information about Cyborg maintenance, see the Guide to robotics.
Modules
Note that as of 2023-08-11, all dogborg modules have been merged into their respective non-dogborg companion.
Cyborgs come with an array of advanced cybernetic modules, each loaded with a number of features (referred to as modules). Each has a flash device built in. All items (except for the flashes) will recharge and restock over time using battery power or being in a cyborg recharge station.

Modifications
Cyborgs that have had their programming tampered with can be repaired by resetting their AI connection and LawSync status, by manually pulsing the wiring. In the unlikely event that an AI goes crazy, a trained Roboticist or other technician should be able to sever the connection to the AI entirely by cutting the correct wire.
There are three lights in the cyborg with three corresponding wires:
- LawSync: If this light is on, it means that any laws uploaded to the AI are also uploaded to the cyborg. The cyborg cannot be given different laws to the AI as long as this is on. This light will turn off if the AI Link light is off, regardless of wire status.
- Pulsing does nothing.
- Cutting will do nothing, as long as the AI link light is on. If the AI link light is off, cutting and then turning the AI link back on will cause the cyborg to be slaved to an AI, but not synced with it's laws.
- Mending this wire will turn the LawSync light back on as long as the AI link light is also on. The cyborg will then resume syncing with the AI's laws. If the AI link light is off, mending this will turn the light on, only for it to turn off again.
- AI Link: If this light is on, it shows that the Cyborg is slaved to an AI and must follow that AI's orders.
- Pulsing this wire allows you to pick an AI for the cyborg to be slaved to if there are multiple AIs. If there is only one AI, pulsing this will simply turn it on and slave the cyborg to it, if it is off.
- Cutting this wire will cause the Cyborg to be unslaved from the AI and bound only by it's laws. This also turns off LawSync, as the cyborg has no AI to sync to.
- Mending this wire does nothing. You need to pulse it to reconnect it to an AI.
An emagged cyborg will have no LawSync or AI link and cannot be reset.
Remember, cyborgs are very expensive! Do not destroy them unless the cyborg is completely out of control, and resetting the AI and LawSync status doesn't work.
Resetting Modules
Cyborg modules can be reset by opening up the cyborg, and inserting the module reset upgrade.
- Build a module reset board from the robotics Exosuit Fabricator.
- Use ID on Cyborg to unlock panel.
- Crowbar open the Cyborg's panel.
- Shove that module reset board into the Cyborg.
- Crowbar the panel closed and ID lock it.
Other Notes on Cyborgs
- You cannot take toxic or suffocation damage. The only sources of damage that can harm you are Burn and Brute.
- Expect to regularly be thrust into hazardous situations thanks to your enhanced durability and ability to operate in a vacuum.
- You cannot be disarmed or relieved of your inbuilt equipment. You can only be stunned by a flash or EMP, which overload your optical sensors.
- You are immune to most (if not all) maladies such as disease and radiation poisoning.
- You must follow the AI's laws.
- You cannot pick up, use, or equip external items.
- You can be locked down or blown up using the Robotics Control Computer in the Research Director's Office.
- You are considered directly subordinate to the AI if an AI is present and functional.
- Like the AI, you can remotely interact with certain objects. You must be within sight range of a device to manipulate it. For example, you cannot call for a shuttle or set messages without line of sight to a Communications Console.
- Like the AI, you can remotely view alarm statuses. Use this to your advantage.
- You can use the same hotkeys as the AI to interact with airlocks, APCs, etc.
- Unlike the AI, you cannot use security cameras for remote viewing.
- You are basically an AI on legs, without the security camera abilities. When there's no AI in the round, this can be useful.
- Cyborgs have all-access and more, as well as remote door interaction.
- You will need to recharge using the Cyborg Recharging Stations or the Dormitories.
- When your power reaches around 100 units remaining, your modules will automatically shut down, presumably to preserve power.
- You are very tough, and as fast as, if not faster, than most of your human compatriots.
- Keep the crew updated on your location and power if you are running low and may not make it to the recharger in time.
- Cyborgs may not know what emotions, or feelings are, but that doesn't give the player the right to go Rambo. If a group of people take several people hostage, the Cyborg doesn't have the right to rush in with a stun baton and beat the Hostage takers.
- Cyborgs can be improved with a number of useful upgrades by a helpful Roboticist.
.hack//
Cyborgs are vulnerable to certain clandestine devices, and may have illegal programs uploaded to them by such interactions. This type of re-programing is also present in clandestinely hacked AIs, and may viralry infect into related cyborgs. Finally, certain cyborgs may have been hacked personally by clandestine agents.
To emag a cyborg, follow these steps:
- Use and Emag or ID to unlock the cover.
- Crowbar open the cover.
- Use Emag again.
This will turn control of the cyborg over the the person who emagged it and disconnect it from the AI and Cyborg Upload Console.
Note: Many people fail to emag cyborgs for a number of reasons.
- Emags have a limited amount of charges, around 3-4 sometimes 5.
- People usually emag without unlocking the cover, this uses 1 charge and only unlocks the panel, rather than emagging the cyborg.
- Any more attempts to use the emag at this stage results in a message of *The cover is already unlocked.* and another charge is used on the emag. This may be done until all charges are used.
- If people unlock the panel with their ID first, but do not open the cover, and then try to use their emag, each attempt wastes another emag charge and displays *The cover is already unlocked.*.
- When the panel is opened, using an emag on the cyborg will sometimes display 'You fail to lock Cyborg-X's interface.' and will waste another emag charge.
- Occasionally, the emag will fail, even with the panel open, and the cyborg will recieve a message of 'Hack attempted'.
Therefore, in most cases, people use up all their emag charges before actually being able to emag the cyborg. Be careful!
What ever the case, the cyborg is now corrupted, and all safety measures are released, with the exception of the robotics control. Do not mistake personality quirks for clandestine behavior, cyborgs are VERY EXPENSIVE MACHINES and you may be demoted or fired for destroying them without a valid reason.
Keep in mind, CentCom robotics employees may attempt to experiment with a cyborgs internal wiring, please double check before detonating any cyborg acting independently by doing routine maintenance on their electrical systems. Also keep in mind that their laws may be changed by the same process as an AI by simply using the cyborg upload located opposite the AI upload.
