Tales as Old as Time.
This isn't an easy story for me to tell.
I was a very sheltered child. By the time I got into junior high school, I was socially awkward and filled with all sorts of false ideas on how to interact with my peers. So I tried to be formal and serious. And that carried into my body language and how I moved.
So they mocked me calling me 'RoboCop' because of how I walked.
So, I have no funny little RoboCop snippet to share today. But that doesn't mean I dislike the character! I love the original trilogy. Yes, even RoboCop 3. The little hacker genius girl was cringe and they didn't have to kill Lewis, but I like the ninjas, I like the villain, I like the new OCP CEO who is too much of a smarmy coward to hate, it's a fun movie that gets too much hate.
The remake is awful though. How a movie can waste Gary Oldman, Michael Keaton and Samuel L. Jackson all at once?
It's worse than being called 'RoboCop'.

Biography:
Chaos. Corruption. Civil war.
In a decadent future, Alex Murphy was a young, struggling and honest police officer in Detroit, United States of America. When he was killed by Clarence Boddicker and his demented gang of murderers, his body was claimed by Omni Consumer Products (OCP), a megacorporation the police department was indebted to.
Murphy's brain, his face and one of his arms, the only parts of his body intact after Boddicker's attack, were attached to a state of the arm cybernetic body, a veritable weapon of metropolitan war. Redubbed 'RoboCop' for publicity purposes, Murphy was reassigned to the Detroit Police Department, where he met his partner, Officer Anne Lewis, again. Murphy started remembering his past, learning his wife and children had moved away after believing him dead. He went after Boddicker and learned he had been in cahoots with OCP's executive Dick Jones. When Jones was exposed and tried to kill the CEO of OCP, he was fired, clearing Murphy to blow his head off.
Some time later, Doctor Faxx, an ammoral and seductive female researcher, convinced the CEO to go ahead with a 'RoboCop 2' program to create a replacement for the all too honest Murphy. The picked subject was Cain, a gangleader who had been put down by the original RoboCop. Cain, driven insane by his transformation into a hulking cyber menace, was stopped when Murphy pulverized his brain, but the CEO and Faxx escaped the repercusions of their acts.
Even later, the CEO died and OCP fell into a crisis. The company was taken over by the Japanese zaibatsu of Kanemitsu, which sought to destroy Old Metroit and build a new Delta City over it. The police was forced to evacuate citizens by force, something RoboCop and Lewis objected to. Lewis was killed by Omni's military contractor, the mercenary Commander Paul Mc Daggett, and Murphy joined the rebellion of citizens after his new caretaker, Doctor Marie Lazarus, cleared the directive subjecting him to OCP's will. RoboCop defeated the ninja robots sent by Kanemitsu, killed Mc Daggett, and saved Detroit from Kanemitsu and OCP's new CEO. The president of Kanemitsu even accepted defeat from him, recognizing RoboCop as a worthy adversary.
Class Skills:
Independent Action: B
At Rank B, materialization can be maintained for 2 days without a Master.
He broke ties with his masters and creators in OCP and survived for several years on his own, only with the aid of Doctor Lazarus. This boosts his Independent Action remarkably, and he is a fundamentally free-spirited soul.
Magic Resistance: D
Cancels Single-Action spells. Magic Resistance of the same degree of an amulet that rejects magical energy
He survived several weeks in the Outworld while looking for the crime boss Kano, enduring through the mystical evil fumes and mists of that world.
Personal Skills:
OCP Technology: A
"I identify as human."
Archer is equiped with the best technology and weaponry his financial backers could commission from the greatest scientific minds of his era.
His arsenal of resources includes:
A sharp and long metal spike that can be retracted from his right wrist. By jamming it into any computer equipment, Archer can hack into them. It also can be used as a shiv in close quarters combat, where it instantly kills average humans.
An Auto-9 pistol holstered in his right leg. Archer's default weapon, it is very powerful, with armor piercing explosive shells.
A Cobra Assault Cannon he can summon at will. This weapon is extremely powerful, able to destroy ED-209 (see below) with a single shot.
Nocturnal vision and heat detection devices installed in the visor of his helmet.
A long spike hidden in each foot. If deployed, they deal extra impact with a kick.
N1-408: A smaller handgun, favored by Alex Murphy when he still was a living patrolman in Old Detroit. It is quick and reloads faster than the Auto-9.
A miniature rocket launcher mounted on Archer's shoulder. It only can shoot one rocket per day.
A Calico Submachine Gun attached to Archer's arm.
A flamethrower.
A riot shield that can be unfolded to ofFer protection from blunt damage or from enemy fire. Despite this, the shield is weak enough that it doesn't grant Murphy the access to the Shielder class.
To Serve and Protect: A
Archer acts moved and directed by three directives that were programmed into him upon conversion into a cyborg. However, even before that he was an idealistic police officer that was devoted to those principles, so he is adamant about them and would remain commited to them even without the programming. As it is, they just make him nearly fanatical in his pursuit of law and justice, to the point of granting him performance bonuses.
The fourth original directive was always obeying OCP and never harming one of its members, but it was deprogrammed from him, freeing him. The three remaining directives are:
Serving the public trust.
Protecting the innocent.
Upholding the local law.
While pursuing any of these objectives like a good police officer, Archer can go past the limits of his normal stats even if his body is breaking down, and he deals extra damage against Evil aligned criminals.
Cybernetic Implants- Protection from Interference: A
While Archer's brain remained organic, it had chips inserted into it that blocked any attempt of criminal enterprises not approved by OCP from controlling his thought proccesses. This means that he cannot be controlled through external hacking or through msytical means including Mystic Eyes and hypnotism.
In addition, he has no blood, only oil, so vampires and 'True Apostles' cannot feed on him, nor can he be tracked by the scent of his blood.
Noble Phantasms:
Flightpack- Jet Propelled Wonder of OCP (TM): B
Self.
A mean of additional, aerial transportation built by Doctor Marie Lazarus for RoboCop. It allows him flight at high speeds, much superior to that he would have on foot. It also holds a miniature supply of extra energy, so whenever it is donned it recharges Archer's mana to its maximum. However, the longer it is used his mana will start depleting again.
ED-209. Enforcement Droid, Series 209 (TM): C++
"It gives me great pleasure to introduce you to the future of law enforcement: ED-209!"- Dick Jones.
Anti-Army.
Up to 27 enemies at a time.
A weapon designed for urban warfare and police enforcement tasks before the RoboCop program. It is a gigantic bipedal robot, as slow moving as RoboCop, but loaded with far more raw firepower. It is basically a tank on two legs, and just as maneuverable. It has a very low level of Artificial Intelligence, so if left to its own devices it will soon go overdrive, malfunction on faulty decision making, and shoot anyone over the smallest perceived transgressions of the law.
RoboCop fought several of these as they went rogue, but eventually most of their bugs were smoothed, although they never were very efficient as anything but support fire. As a Servant, he can summon one of them to provide massive cover fire on the enemy. Afterwards, it can follow Archer along as long as he has enough mana, and he will keep it from damaging his allies and their surroundings.
It cannot go up or down stairs.
