V8 Enforcer Robot

A combat-oriented synthetic enforcer deployed by Commander Uvanov to maintain order within the crew. V8 moves with deliberate, heavy steps, its alloy-plated chassis built for durability rather than finesse, equipped with locking grips and rigid sensory optics. The crew reacts with instinctive fear upon seeing it, treating its presence as an immediate threat—Borg seizes the Doctor without hesitation when V8 enters, and Uvanov promptly orders V8 to secure the room and imprison the Doctor and Leela, bypassing any discussion. Its actions are coldly mechanical, aligning with the crew's growing authoritarian response to the investigation.
