How do you torture a pair of ROBOTIC LEGS? You want that magic fork but you'll have to send a strike force out after them, seeing as they've just flown away...
>Next.
The WORKER tells you nervously that a BOUNTY HUNTING ROBOT has just been arrested on the deck for trying to use a TRITOPUS as some sort of battering ram. Together they killed many WORKERS and SOLDIERS but a MESSIANIC FIGURE came down from space and slayed the TRITOPUS before flying away. You realize he's talking about the LEGS that just flew away. You decide to just leave them to their own devices. At worst they're mischevious, and at best their murderous tendencies are doing you favors.

You aren't going to torture a robot, that's nonsense. But you do want it brought to you, so you can read its memories and redistribute any helpful upgrades to the rest of your crew. You tell the WORKER to have it sent to your personal TECHNOCHAMBER.
You don't like using the public computers because these robots have a tendency to find stuff left open like emails and social media, and they like to snoop. It's always so embarrassing.
Thank fuck for modular design! You steal the legs of the guy carrying you and begin your chase after your BOUNTY. These legs are a lot weaker than your old ones though. They kind of suck really.
>Next.
They've flown really far out there with the FORK. To get it back you'll need to be able to propel yourself through space at great speeds. It's too bad G'KGLAHTULON is dead.
If you could simply "break free" from these constraints you would have done it by now. You desperately want to help this apparent ally, but you aren't sure how. They are currently running away but you have faith this is just a strategic retreat. They wouldn't leave you to die on the deck of this ship... you think, wishfully.

You've grown to like these things in the last hour, so you won't stand for any abuse towards them! Also you're trying to get back to at least neutral KARMA as penance for brutally vaporizing one to death earlier. You kick this shitty lesser robot in the face with his brethren's lame mass-produced legs and begin undoing the cords that hold this toothless TRITOPUS down.
>Next.
As you begin undoing the second knot some more robo-enforcements show up. They're yelling at you to stop, but you don't give a shit about they're opinions because you're way stronger than them. After all, you weren't mass produced. You're a specially made BOUNTY HUNTER with all kinds of badass combat skills.
>Next.
Strong as you may be, they have the numbers advantage. They manage to pin you down and take your arm away. You overhear them say something about taking you to the "EMPRESS" for "PHOTORECOLLECTION AND REPROGRAMMING." You only know what the latter word means, but you know it is a BAD, BAD word to have as a verb that happens to you.
Sorry big guy, maybe later!
You can't chase your LEGS because you're currently being carried into the large red building at this end of the FRIGATE, although you guess since you're being carried inside feet-first the rest of you is technically chasing after the legs you currently have equipped.
Also, it looks like they do have some surlier Robo-Guards on staff here after all.

You use the designated FORKTECH to move CANON around yourself. Your location is the second closest SPACE VESSEL to you. Second Closest because that RED FRIGATE is a bit too big for your britches as they stand; which is to say, missing a foot and comprising literally your entire being right now. Because you are LEGS, and have no body beyond that.
The FORKTECH sends you to...
>Next.
The ROBOT's SHIP. Not really what you were hoping for but hey, at least now you have squatter's rights. Way easier to steal something when it technically isn't illegal.
You attempt to engage in trickery but you are being sat on by one of these lesser bots while you all wait for the elevator to come down and get you. They took the legs you stole when you entered, so it's back to hobbling for you.
You would if you could, but now you're riding up in an elevator. These guys all seem really worried about dropping you off to their boss...
Elsewhere on the FRIGATE, we examine a prisoner's cell...
>Next.
You are now one of the TWINS. The female twin, to be precise. You stand in your CELL, trying to put as much distance between you and that awful clown as you can. It was a 'birthday present' from your wicked STEPMOM, the EMPRESS, but it has wrought nothing but stress and fear. The gift was obviously given passive aggressively, as she knows you despise clowns and she DEFINITELY knows about your brother's phobia of them. He is hiding somewhere in the room right now, too scared to leave his hiding spot lest he risk the clown spotting him. You are starting to worry about him, as he's been too scared to even eat for days now, and he's starting to get pretty skinny. You gotta do something to get rid of this HORRID HARLEQUIN!!!
But before you do anything you're going to need a NAME. Humans, unlike robots, have a lot of importance wrapped up in names, and if we are going to be playing as one for the next little bit we'll definitely need something to refer to you by.
What will the name of this HUMAN be?
This is not a name, and means nothing to you. Try again!

Re: >ROBOQUEST
Cinnamon? Cinnamon is a stripper's name! Or at least that's what the EMPRESS told you. You aren't sure what baking spice has to do with paint removal, but apparently it's super offensive to aliens so she told you never to call yourself Cinnamon.
Yeah that's right, your name is FLIM. As stupid as it is, this is your name. You really wish the old hag would just let you go by Cinnamon. Likewise your brother has always hated the name FLAM, and has asked on numerous occasions if he can just switch the beginning so his name is SAM instead but again, no dice. You'd be willing to meet her halfway at Cinnamon Flim and Sam Flam but she detests that idea, says human names are stupid and that these names better fit the customary naming traditions for young folks on her planet.
Whatever, fuck that contemptible space harlot. When you break out of here, whenever that may be, you are going to call yourself CINNAMON, regardless of whether or not it conjures images of paint remover in people's heads!!
Anyway, for now what do you do?
