Artisan's Touch

Deviation O-046 is an ornamental mechanical hand that stands about 40 centimeters tall and weighs roughly 30 kilograms. It is painted red, and each of its fingers is a set of tools that can be extended, retracted, or replaced as permitted by its internal structure. O-046 possesses an extremely complex internal mechanical structure, consisting of a large number of electronic components, gears, connecting rods, springs, hydraulic pumps, and pneumatic parts. Its power source is unknown but is sufficient to enable precise movements for extended periods. The primary Deviation Traits displayed by O-046 are its unusual intelligence and anti-entropic effects. O-046 is sentient and displays a degree of sapience, but ignores any attempts at communication, and remains inert most of the time. If a damaged machine (designated O-046-A) is placed within ██ feet of O-046, the latter will spontaneously activate, extending tools from its fingertips to quickly repair O-046-A. The entire repair process typically requires only 5 to 10 minutes. O-046 is capable of generating any required tools, parts, or materials required to perform its repairs. The mechanism behind this is unknown, but it is possible to hear indistinct mechanical sounds and metal being milled inside O-046 during the process, after which it will retract one or many of its fingers, and then extend new tools or parts from its hand. Notably, when O-046 generates any new parts or materials, its mass does not change, even though the mass of O-046-A does increase as a result of being repaired. In some experiments, O-046 was able to generate and utilize parts that were many times its own mass. Incident O-███-D-004, Date ██/██/██: The securement breach involving Deviation █-███ occurred. A Rapid Response Team ████-██ was deployed to the Site ████, and recovered █ Deviations, including O-046. Body camera footage showed that when the rapid response team entered O-046's securement cell, both the cell and its S-Vessel had already been damaged. O-046 was in an unusually active state, had expanded itself to almost 2 meters in size by using nearby debris, and was attempting to repair its own S-Vessel and containment cell. When a SWAT operative █████ (male), who was heavily wounded, approached O-046, the latter retracted all of its tools and adopted a posture suggesting pain or indecision [Data Deleted].
