Character Spotlight: ASTRA, the Advisor (Patreon)
Content
ASTRA (All-purpose Strategic/Tactical Response Advisor) is your personal virtual assistant and serves as the tutorial and wiki for the game's combat mode.
Astra appears as a floating holographic interface projected from any device connected to the mainframe where she is uploaded. Should you wish, she can also be downloaded into a cyberdoll body to assist you physically, similar to her prototype Galatea.
Astra is erudite, sensible and meticulous. She voluntarily helps you in many ways beyond combat and research, from household chores to health monitoring. She seems to take delight in taking care of your daily life, which is very weird for a military AI, but maybe it is wise not to bring it up to her.
