Endoskeleton

A robot looking at the universal tool.

Summary

Every being in the galaxy controls a robotic endoskeleton.
Both technology and space exploration have greatly benefited from the use of the extremely durable endoskeletons due to the numerical advantages of the mechanical bodies of an endoskeleton compared to an organic body. The development of the insurance system, which allows the control of a new endoskeleton in the case of destruction of the original robotic body, has also been a significant factor in the advancement of society in space.

Endoskeletons are commonly referred to as "robots".

Features

The mechanical body of an endoskeleton is a durable and relatively safe way to exist in space, as partial destruction of the robotic endoskeleton does not result in immediate decommission.
Only the loss of power from the robot's core, located in the robot's torso chassis, causes the decommission of an endoskeleton.
The chassis can, however, withstand weapon damage relatively well.
In the case of an endoskeleton being completely destroyed, the galaxy-wide insurance system enables control of a new endoskeleton.
Endoskeletons can equip multiple different types of armor, that are purchasable from trading stations or from Mega Stations.
