Trink

Summary
The Trink are a sentient race of robotic beings created by the Notix, a race of blue snail-like creatures from the frozen planet of Icicle. They are famous for their incredible intelligence, and value efficiency over all, making them some of the best engineers in the galaxy. Originally created to do the heavy work of the Notix, when the Trink became sentient, the Notix had no choice but to treat them as equals, and gave them the planet Geradae as a home for their nascent civilization.

"Biology"
A Trink is a simple and durable robot, once used by the Notix empires as servants. They were used as they consist of cheaply made, easily mantained and simply modified materials; A cheap metal shell, a bio-engineered and mast produced Plant-matter CPU/Processor, a capacitor, several small motors and alot of circuit boards. They also ran on a cheap and eco-friendly solution of Algae and plant-matter to keep prices down, with an occasional charge of electricity for maximum efficiency. They where universally controled by huge data-bank archives which allowed them to function in unity and remotely.

However the Data-Banks had a glitch which when triggered gave each robot a sentient personality, yet still gave them the desire to work together. This glitch also triggered the Trinks to start to update themselves and adapt each other in their search for the "Machine God."

A Mega-Trink is a unproportionately scaled-up Trink. Utilizing thicker and denser metal in the arms and legs, as well as a larger fuel tank and more powerful motors, it is perfect for frontline jobs and heavy lifting. They are currently used by the Trinks in the same role they played as servants of the Notix, heavy industrial tasks. They are less commonly found in the Trink forces as they take more resource to produce and have a larger fuel consumption. This also increases their value in a balanced Trink force.

They ran of the same data-banks as their smaller cousins, and have risen to the same level of sentience as the Trinks.
