501-Z Security/Police Droid
Designed by the SoroSuub Corporation, the 501-Z police/security droid is an advanced droid model with multiple capabilities. In addition to being a combat-ready droid capable of suppressing even the most violent criminals, the 501-Z can act in a number of the same roles that biological police officers and security experts fill. The 501-Z has an exceptional capacity for Human-cyborg interactions (and some say that the droid’s brain was based on a protocol droid’s design) and functions well along side living beings, both as a comrade and as their defender. Additionally, the 501-Z boasts advanced software that allows it to evaluate an enemy’s tactics in the middle of a fight and adjust accordingly; unlike some other combat-capable droids, the 501-Z is far from single-minded when engaging an enemy. Furthermore, the droid is programmed with a wide array of investigative techniques and tracking skills, allowing it to assist living police officers or security experts in the pursuit and capture of escaping criminals.
501-Z police/security droids can’t be played as droid heroes.
Security Droid Encounters
Since a security droid or police droid is concerned with upholding the law and protecting people and places from those who would do them harm, a security droid functions well as a member of a biological police squad or security team. However, police droids are so expensive that most organizations can afford to keep only one or two on staff. The 501-Z has such sophisticated programming that it is often regarded as just another member of the security force or police unit it is attached to; many living beings develop camaraderie and working relationships with the 501-Z, and during most encounters they act (and are treated) just like a nondroid police officer.
Security droids also work well with other droids, particularly probe droids (which can be used to find crimina ls and their hideouts). patrol droids (which often accompany a security droid on patrol), and seeker droids (which serve as both observers and combat assistants). A typical police response unit might include several police officers, a 501-Z police/security droid, and a seeker droid. The 501-Z often uses its Harm’s Way talent to keep its fellow police officers alive in the heat of combat, and it has a high enough Perception skill bonus that very few enemies will ever catch it unaware.
