Little Three

From Whatis
Jump to: navigation, search

Little Three is a small, quite sophisticated and advanced tripod robot built by Hephaestus for Kore. Unlike it's older siblings, Little One and Little Two, Three takes orders only from Kore herself, rather than anyone in the household or the other Olympian gods. While technically an it, Three is often referred to as "he" by other household members, as are the other Littles. Little Three is somewhat more independent than the other two, and leaves the household with his Mistress often.

Abilities

Little Three is capable of doing many household chores, including some cleaning, cooking, and fetching. He is equipped with teleport technology, enabling Kore to get around without help from others, and also has a storage compartment for items.

He is very attentive to his Mistress and has developed a keen sense of her needs and tastes, and in most cases is ready with things she needs. The two have developed a good working relationship and respect for each other.

Design

Little Three is a tripod-style robot with a storage compartment between two arms, and a device which serves as a head so that he can see and hear. He stands about three feet high.

The Littles

The Littles are (currently) a group of three autonomous servant-robots built by Hephaestus, and serve in his household. Before his marriage to Kore, they performed virtually all household duties performed, which was far less than is currently done in the household. They are much smaller versions of the tripod robots their master uses in his great forge at Lemnos, and travel with their Master or Mistress.

All three of them are imbued by their Master's gift with life to some capacity for the purpose of carrying out their duties, and are capable of some thought, but not so much that they are fully realized and independent AIs as Aescapulus is.
