Without internal examination or magick, a Mark X remains indistinguishable from a muscular, if somewhat taciturn, human being. Such machines are no better at social banter than any previous HIT Mark model, but they’re smart enough to know how to conceal this weakness; given the decline of social graces in recent years, such concealment isn’t difficult.","Like its previous iteration, the HIT Mark IX, the newer model X employs a complex integration of nanotech and lab-grown organic tissue which creates a literally flexible bio-machine.
