An airborne command center for agricultural drones. Long has it tended the crops in the field, even treating them as its own, but it is nevertheless lonely because of its rootless wandering. Malware has turned its loneliness into hatred for all who dwell on the ground.
Once a "mothership" of drones used in Tower Mountains Biotech's agricultural experiment platform that grows sympathetic with the plants it helped to nurture but overwhelmed by solitude because it can never be one with them, this drone's A.I. was corrupted by malware installed by the pro-organic food activists occupying the platform, amplifying its loneliness so much to the point it ended up harboring a deep resentment towards all on land, including the plants it once tended to. The "Hatred Without Root" boasts very high HP and RES along with decent defenses, and although unable to attack directly, it instead focuses on supporting its fellow Drones.
