HOLOGRAPHIC SERVANT

Although the holographic servant has often been considered a vanity item, many lonely souls in the depths of space would have went lost their mind without one.  This nanocolony provides a semi-transparent semi-corporeal form to an A.I.  That advantage of a holographic servant over other holographic devices is the capability of the nanites to manipulate their surroundings. It can fetch an item, open doors, get you a coffee, or scratch an itch as long as its within network range of its central A.I.  Any computer with an A.I. can be synced with this nanocolony.

The holographic servant can perform one physical activity at a time due to the limited number of nanites dedicated to physical manipulation.  It can only open normal doors, drawers, lids, and the like. It has an effective Strength score of 2 (it can only manage items of 1 bulk or less). It can trigger some types of traps, but it can only exert up to 20 pounds of force, which is not enough to activate certain pressure plates and other devices. It can’t perform any tasks which requires a skill check for a skill which it doesn’t possess or that cannot be used unskilled. Although it produces enough propulsion to move objects and hover slightly above the ground it cannot fly, climb, or even swim (though it can walk on water). Its base speed is 15 feet.

The servant cannot attack in any way; it is never allowed an attack roll. The holographic servant is dispersed and destroyed if it takes 6 points of damage from area attacks and is also destroyed by strong winds.  (It gets no saves against these attacks.)  A holographic servant only functions within 100 feet of its AI or within 100 feet of a network that provides direct access to its A.I. If the holographic servant is cut off from its AI or moves beyond its functional range, the nanites fall to the ground and it ceases to exist.

The holographic servant is stored in a tiny canister the size of a shotgun shell.  Activating or deactivating the servant is a move action.  The nanites cannot be activated if beyond the range of its AI.
