Subsequent Development

Ves Larkinson's Orders of Life emerged as a means to systematically categorize the living qualities of different mechs.

First order living mechs barely possessed any coherent signs of life. They were mechs with a weak degree of X-Factor. Ves had been able to produce first order mechs since the moment he first formed the building blocks of his design philosophy.

Second order living mechs became Ves' default standard. They already possessed a rudimentary amount of sentience, intelligence, awareness and autonomy. Each mech pilot could easily get in touch with them as long as they interfaced with the machines.

The spectrum of second order living mechs was quite extensive. There were massive differences between a living mech that was mass produced at a third-party mech factory and a living mech fabricated by Ves in his own workshop!
