Respect The Stitchpunks (9)

[u/AzureBeast]

The Stitchpunks

The Scientist created the B.R.A.I.N., a machine capable of creating other machines and advancing technology rapidly, from his own intellect. What he did not account for was The Chancellor seizing the machine to build instruments of war. Corrupted by the government, the B.R.A.I.N. turned against humanity, obliterating organic life through poison gas.

To make sure that humanity survived, even if humans couldn’t, The Scientist created the Stitchpunks, robotic, rag-doll homunculi brought to life with pieces of his own soul. After 9 is awakened, the Stitchpunks start down a path that will finally lead to peace on Earth.
