This is still a "Work in Progress": There is more I wish to add, but here is what I have so far. I don't want to get too far into it because I can't seem to find where all the other character profiles are and I hope I have a decent enough idea for a character profile for you all to enjoy reading:

Cool.
There is some info in our wiki which has been 'borrowed' from the Colonial Marines Technical Manual on Synthetics which may interest you:

I'm glad that you liked it

I'm going to be adding more to it tonight. I thought it would be a fun and unique touch to write my character's profile like a user's manual. I'm glad you enjoied reading it. I'm loving writing it. The original manual I'm writing for my character looks way better than the plain text that I'm putting on the forums. I would love to show you what it looks like because it has a lot of eye-candy compared to what I have here. I'll try and get it into PDF format or something so I can display it when I'm done.
I read it front to back the moment you sent in the link! Thank you! The funny thing is that I had the same ideas in mind for my android character and I wasn't too far off the original generic android manual. The only few major differences is that my android has more short-term memory than the average android, and also, my android has slightly less physical memory than the average android but it's pretty close!
Of course my Android is going to require slightly less maintenance (unless she has an accident) than the older models, and she isn't as strong as the older models because her power output doesn't support the strength of the average android. Also, her bone structure is slightly different. The Android we're all used to, Biship, Ash, etc., all used a metalic composite and mine uses a type of human-like synthetic stand in for bone.
Other than those slight differences, I was right on! I'm surprised at that, but yeah! I'm happy I had the right idea. Thank you for finding that link. It was a fun read!

I'm looking forward to playing the character. I'm a huge Asimov fan so this is right up my alley.

I like the post, though i think its statement on Xenomorphs is a bit uneccesary considering they aren't exactly a common occurrence.
But this is a good time for me to mention i think there are some statistics of the "Jean Android" that need to be reduced, or atleast considered.
Intelligence, Health, and Agility I believe need to be reduced from their... extremely God like current state of 21. Maybe not so much the intelligence because she is essentially a walking super computer, but the others i think it would be a good idea.
-Health - Androids are essentially just a very strong human, and in comparison to everyone else, it seems that either its really strong, or we're all really week
-Agility - Similar thing, its just a machine it can't really be capable of exceptionally amazing agility can it?

Those stats are taken from the Aliens rule book. An android on the flip side does have a massive penalty in that it can't fight.

Fair enough, I withdraw my statement. So long as its in the rulebook. You can imagine i never had much reason to look up... androids before.
