Mechanoid

Any "artificial" sentient species that is not organic. Commonly found in nations such as Angelus or Zero-One, mechanoids are often distrusted by organics such as baseline humans and non-humans because of popular fiction. This results in mechanoids generally distrusting organics due to racial violence against them. However, cybernetic posthumans tend to see mechanoids in a better light (and vice versa) because of a sense of 'family' engendered by mutual cybernetics.
