Machine Physiology

Machine Physiology
Aside from the Overseer himself, Nox (TF2 Freak/Pavor Nocturnus) is the second highest member in the Pavor Nocturnus corporation as a whole. He is immensely powerful for an Android, yet he’s designed to be a one-man army member of sorts to cease the chances of the members having to lose any more operatives.
Power/Ability to:	Use the traits of robots/machines.

"My name is Victor Mancha and I am an android. Like father like son, sort of. He built me to infiltrate and kill all the Avengers. So that way, you could say I've been a great disappointment to him. I guess that makes us even."

― Victor Mancha (Marvel Comics)

"The Engineer has spent his adult life extending the possibilities of his own with technology...using his own body as a test bed for the changes he wants to make to the world."

― John Cumberland/The High describing the Engineer (Wildstorm/DC Comics)

"Yes, by all accounts, I should, in fact, be dead. Incinerated in the fires of your sun. But fate, it seems, saw fit that I'd have a second chance. And thanks to the power of the Big Gete Star, I have been reborn stronger and sleeker; new and improved, you might say"

― Meta Cooler to the Z Fighters (Dragon Ball Z: The Return of Cooler)

The power to use the abilities of a robot/machine. Not to be confused with Technology Imitation.

Capabilities

The user either is or can transform into a machine, including a robot, cyborg, android/gynoid, weapon, etc. This can include small factories instead of organs, which can manifest instruments such as mechanical limbs, weapons, or wheels. Some may be limited to specific mechanisms or parts to which their body can operate, others abilities may be limited only by their imagination.

BLU Pyrogun (TF2 Freak) is the BLU counterpart of Pyrogun, though the only differences is that BLU Pyrogun is obedient and quirky, while the RED version of Pyrogun is incompetent and indifferent.

Cremapyro (TF2 Freak) is a defensive Aperture Science Robot that exterminates all intruders alike, especially the Aperture Science Research Facility’s personnel due to how faulty his Artificial Intelligence is. In order to move, he uses black tendrils if he has to chase down intruders.

CyborPyro (TF2 Freak) is a Combat Robot manuefactured by the Engineer Drones in order to serve CyborMedic as a subordinate.

Unlike Gray Mann’s robots, Pencer’s Mecha-Mercenaries (TF2 Freak) are considered to be a tad more tougher than the aforementioned robots mentioned earlier. However, very much unlike them, they have flaws in terms of their manufacturing, specifically whenever they begin to get into a state of glitching and short-circuiting.

The Robo-Siblings (TF2 Freak) are all robotic triplets that happen to work together and tend to possess a digistructing mechanic on their backs that allows them to create their own ranged weaponry and they have the capability of disarming enemies once they move in closer to them.

Project C4-5T-0R/Castor (TF2 Freak/Pavor Nocturnus) is a supersoldier Android that has been improvised through the basic Automaton design in order to cease the chances of having to lose any of the Automatons...

...alongside Project S4-R1N/Sarin, who was basically designed to be a female.
