Appearance: This being a visual novel it's probably better if you just have a look yourself.
Universe of Origin: Planetarian
Equipment:
- Bouquet O' Random Crap: Exactly what it says on the tin, it's a bouquet scrounged up from junk. Hell, there's probably something useful in there amongst all the cords, fluorescent bulbs, and other junk that got bundled together to make this thing.
- Data Ribbon: It's a light-up ribbon that's about as long as Yumemi is tall when just a bow. When unwound it'd probably be a few times her height. In addition to lighting up it can also change colors and patterns.
- Light-Up Clothing: Her clothes are also equipped with the same light-up technology, meant to navigate dark spaces during power outages and to usher people around an otherwise very dark planetarium. For the purposes of anything arena-related this means being able to deny the usage of darkness as an asset on command. The weakness, obviously, is that this cuts the other way, too.
- Communications Gear: Embedded in her ear units are high-performance communications systems for talking with all the other machines in the department store and the planetarium...when it was all still working, anyway. Back in the day before the apocalypse that was 30 years old at the very start of the visual novel, this could supposedly even tell a military robot to come to heel.
- Ear-Mounted Printer: One of these units is much bigger than the other. It includes a printer for printing coupons and tickets and the like, but could probably be made to print whatever other images could fit on the ticket-sized slips of paper Yumemi would be expected to hand out.
- Holographic Projector: When it's working, her larger ear unit can also project three-dimensional holographic images. Its true capabilities are unknown, but assuming this is a Yumemi that actually works, the possibilities are pretty broad.
- Crashproof Clothing Additions: Those shoulder guards are probably there to further protect Yumemi from manhandling by more rowdy customers. Who knows? Every little bit helps.
Powers and Abilities:
- Freakin' Robot: Yumemi is a freakin' robot, and in places, not a very sophisticated one. She may have a soft exterior but
she's hard underneath, so for some, trying to hurt her is its own punishment. Her comms systems, printer and hologram projector are all integral parts of her structure, too, so getting them off her isn't as easy as trying to Senran Kagura her or something.
- Made Of Nintendium: Yumemi is a companion robot, but she's still a robot, and one expected to work in a public place. Call it a perk or an unfortunate side effect of the implications of her job, but she's considerably harder to break than she looks. She's also waterproof and, presumably, could only carry chemicals or disease as far as fluids or vapors might stick to her upon condensation. She falls over a lot and is barely affected by it. She also appears to be able to not react to pain, but as seen in the visual novel, she can feel, so she'll still register damage from a broken heart, and likely she can still be very alarmed by taking damage. Probably.
- Eight Kilometers An Hour: In Planetarian, Yumemi demonstrates she is acutely aware of her position and speed, up to her purported maximum walking speed of exactly eight klicks. Being able to take this sort of data on a moment's notice means her observational capabilities are either at least up to par, or perhaps might be even better than that.
- Drunken Robot Boxing: Yumemi's balance systems don't work, and it's a bug that was intentionally kept in her software by her original owners because it was supposedly endearing. Her loopy balance algorithms could be manipulated to keep her unpredictable enough to sneak in damage.
- Hey, You Down There!: Yumemi was meant to give presentations in a planetarium, and a pretty big one, too. It is assumed she can boost the volume of her voice to carry through, so talking over people is no problem for her. She has another bug in her systems that causes her to talk people's ears off, if that also comes in handy.
- Green Arrow, Red Cirle, Red Box: Yumemi can record and play back things she observes.
- Backup Plan: If all else fails, Yumemi can save her entire consciousness and memories to a memory card located in her head unit. She can quickly jump into other bodies given a compatible operating system, or if the hardware she gets slotted into can support her own.
