Courser From Homestuck Vol. 6: Heir Transparent By Seth Peele and Alex Rosetti Propaganda: "courser is actual fucking peak" "I’m a big fan of traditional Japanese instruments and I love pieces that blend traditional music styles with a more modern sound and this does it beautifully. I especially love the shamisen part. This is just a delight to listen to. In my opinion the Courser leitmotif is one of the most beautiful ones in all Homestuck." "courser i already love as a leitmotif. it’s really beautiful. i love the japanese sound" "courser hits and is a religious experience"

Olive Rogue From coloUrs and mayhem: Universe A By Eston Schweickart Propaganda: "love the song" "olive rogue is soooooo good" "Olive Rogue is so good please vote Olive Rogue"

Also, I want to note that Ada and Codsworth can be modified into different robot forms, but I chose the sentry bot build.

I also want to note that i usually headcannon power armor as being larger than what is stated in Canon being 7 feet. Due to a mix of their size, looking varied in some showings and different power armor types, simply looking larger than others.

EDIT:I now realized I put Gage as Cage

Paladin Danse is later on revealed within the game Fallout 4 to be a synth (sorry for spoilers but it came out nearly 10 years ago) Danse had no idea he was a synth, and because of that it is likely he had lost his memory due to the railroad OR that the institute put him there as a sleeper agent as they have replaced people before. The only problem with this is that individuals who have been replaced by the institute aren't given as much of a highlight as people who escape or people who believe they are synths or people who are believed to be synths. The only individuals we seem to interact with otherwise are mostly people who have disconnected from the institute via the railroad, there are reports that individuals do get replaced, but those tend to be from people who actually are working for the institute and not individuals who are aware of this.

With this in mind, it is likely Danse was a synth who managed to escape and be part of the Railroad. How did Danse get into the brotherhood and become a paladin? If the Sole Survivor can become a sentinel within a year (likely less) , the authority that is above Danse, then Danse could've gotten there pretty quickly himself.

Now let's compare Danse to some of the other cast. Knight Rhys for starters, Danse is not only in a position above him as his commanding officer, but also Danse seems to be a lot more level headed and has more disciplined of a character who cares just as much for the brotherhood identity as Rhys does, but in such a way that is not fueled by intense emotions. Danse welcomes you in if you do well, which you do, and Rhys wants to push you away because he simply doesn't have a good feeling about you. (and rightfully so because you could easily turn your back on the brotherhood, but he doesn't know that.)

What about another synth? All the synths, whether or not they escaped with the railroad, are very different from Danse. Their temperaments range from anxious to friendly, they adopt the culture they have been given or are existing within. Nick is a detective, Dima develops a kind heart whose goals are equitable with the Railroad, Glory is rough around the edges but is overall a mellow individual, so on.

X6-88 and the other coursers however, they seem to match the personality of Danse perfectly. Danse already talks like a robot, his common lines are "outstanding" or "affirmative", carrying out orders perfectly as assigned - even to the point where when he finds out he's a synth he allows you to kill him. X6 has a similar problem too, he obviously feels something outside of what Synths are supposed to, he's human in that way, but he maintains his identity alongside the institute, that's just who he is.

You can only pick up a single courser chip from Z2-47, and they are known to be very difficult and rare to collect from Coursers alongside that. Other coursers don't drop these.

Danse, alongside his skill set and personality, is perfect to be a courser.

Now, alongside the railroad theory, how is Danse not recognized by the other members of the Railroad? Well, for starters, you don't meet everyone you find in the Railroad. The Railroad expands their horizons as far out as the capital wasteland from the commonwealth, it's likely that the people who did work to rescue Danse are either dead, weren't the big players you know now, or simply in a different location.

Joes very cool bird army 🦆
