service reports:
The sole surviving example of prototype Zeroid. No reported functional
weaknesses. Observations indicate that logic circuits are subject to external
manipulation under varying degrees of environmental stress. All three previous
batch stereotypes were destroyed on a Search and Rescue mission, the success
of which was due to their unaccountable and ungrogrammed 'heroics'. A very
sophisticated design.
military evaluation:
Insufficient data.
special characteristics:
The power nucleus of this Zeroid is a unique Iranium crystal from the
planet Jupiter. hiro, who designed and built the prototypes, believes that
this power source had introduced 'emotions' normally associated only with
humanoid life forms, and Sergant Major Zero constantly confirms his agreement
with this diagnosis. He desperately wants to be human, and likes to make 'decicions'
which infuriates Doctor Ninestein, and tends to provoke sympathy from Mary.
