Overview

Solo is a military android designed as an advanced killing machine. Sent into a Central American conflict, he develops compassion for civilians and refuses to continue following the role his creators intended for him.

ASFR Content

Solo is a highly human-looking combat android whose increasing independence is treated as a programming fault. When his handlers decide to recover and deprogram him, he escapes. Damage to his main power supply forces him to operate on secondary power and seek electricity from a village generator while protecting the local population.
