Mechanist (Automatron)

The Mechanist, a.k.a. Isabel Cruz, is a robotics expert staying in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Background
Originally from a settlement plagued with raiders, Isabel Cruz was always good with robotics.

Inspired by drawings of the comic book, illustrated by Derek Pacion, and radio show character, The Mechanist, she set out to use her skills to help the Commonwealth. Discovering a pre-War factory originally run in a juncture of private industry and the military, she set her plan in motion. Using the factory, she began constructing her robot "allies" to help the people of the Commonwealth, pacifying areas by killing raiders and other hostiles. However due to a logical error in her Robobrain lieutenants, these robots would kill everyone they encountered. This lead to an attack on Ada's caravan, resulting in their call for help across the Commonwealth.

She created the Mechanist persona due to the fact that she is not good with people.
