Character Profile

Curt and intense, Kohn is the most hostile robot that pursues the player through the ruins of the outer streets. As the leader of the patrols, he’s both strong and highly intelligent.

Although he remains distrustful of the player for the entirety of the game, Kohn is well respected among the robots, if a little intimidating. Those who work more closely with him will assure you that he’s actually quite reasonable despite his outward appearance.

Kohn lurks everywhere, but most of his time is spent patrolling the outer streets. Between shifts, he can be found instructing guards in the repurposed factory base, asking about stock in the warehouse, and having repairs done in Channelle's workshop.

Relationships

Channelle - TLDR, best buddies and confidants.

They are extremely close, sharing many of the same views and a generally dry personality off the clock. The two frequently seek each other’s company to talk, both for leisure and regarding work, but are just as comfortable hanging out in silence.

They also work on a side project together that the player can piece together through the environment. Kohn approached her about creating a leg model that other robots could use to replace faulty limbs. The two have since continued to develop and test duplicates of the current model he uses in their spare time.

Garrett - They’ve known each other for years and while friendly, as co-workers tend to be, they’re more work acquaintances than friends. While they encounter each other regularly they have difficulty holding an amiable conversation for long.

Still, Kohn views Garrett favorably. He appreciates Garrett's dependability and can respect his distaste for violence despite their disagreements over Kohn’s use of the latter.

Kohn occasionally asks him for advice on how to be more approachable to newer scouts, though he's hard pressed to admit it. He also lingers in the area when Garrett plays guitar. While he's just 'passing through', he seems to enjoy the music.

Sydney - His work partner/protégé. His patrol group has four robots total, but they usually split into two duos for pursuits.

Trivia:

- While he stands stock still at rest, he’s very reactive. He may impulsively crush things in his hands at loud noises and become snappy at false alarms. Kohn keeps an even temper in most other circumstances.

- He’s light for his height, like a scarecrow, and is built for speed. Channelle and other workers can, and have, half-dragged half-carried him back to the base when injured.

- Kohn is instinctively physical. He’d rather grab you by the shoulders to turn you towards a target instead of wasting time explaining it to you. Unfortunately, this doesn’t combine with his clawed hands very well.

- Kohn does his laundry the most among anyone in the group. This is usually due to blood and grime.

- He has worn giant oven mittens over his hands while helping Sydney with stray dogs in the past.
