A drone controlled remotely via a module attached to a richife's core implant, bishop-class models specialize in being a capable model for any situation, or, in other words, doesn't specialize at all. Thus, they are usually a baseline model, a jack-of-all trades, but a master-of-none. Like most other remote servants, these models are usually easy to break, most of the durability going towards the core. Repairs are easier though, only needing two units of scrap metal, two units of wiring, and a connection to the core for repair assistance.
A drone controlled remotely via a module attached to a richife's core implant, knight-class models specialize in mobility, which, by this point has become mostly flying, a feature not risked by most other classes of drone. Not surprising, as in trade flight, they are lighter, and can not reinforced, or loaded down by much.

Repairs are easier though, only needing two units of scrap metal, three units of wiring, a unit of plastic, and a connection to the core for repair assistance.
A drone controlled remotely via a module attached to a richife's core implant, rook-class models specialize in durability, withstanding attacks that would take down most other classes of drone.

Insta-rage was originally developed as a means to give disposable troops a large boost in physical strength and endurance before they perished, and as such, has highly used by morally dubious commanders in battle efforts. The main downsides, however, was that the beverage drove the consumers mind to a near uncontrollable rage, causing them to attack anything and anyone within range, often resulting in the user bashing enemy corpses to a pulp, or even causing them to attack their own allies.
Due to this drawback and several police raids on the factories that produced the substance that many deemed illegal, the company producing Insta-rage was disbanded, and the product forever halted from being produced again. While Insta-Rage may no longer be produced, occasionally cans of the beverage are found hidden in long-forgotten stashes, or sold by shifty individuals looking to make a quick point.

You can wrap it around you for warmth; you can lie on it on sanded beaches, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on many planets; use it to sail a miniraft down rivers or sea currents; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes ; you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.
