Last Parsec Archetypes: Rokishi

One of the most popular sports in the Known Worlds, RoboSumo's regulating body is a mega-corp in its own right. The objective is simple - remove your opponent from the ring via push or pull, no closed fists. The Kumite Directive manufactures competitors, sets the standings, designates tonnage, referees matches, and negotiates the broadcast distributions for the hundreds of tournaments that take place across the galaxy. The competing droids are organized in indentured stables (also called heya) and earn out their contracts through victories. Most rokishi continue competing long after their indenture ends, though they aren't an uncommon sight on JumpCorp vessels. Life outside the ring is hard for synthetic beings built for ritual combat, constant drills and contests leave little room to develop other skills.

Rokishi names combine the name of their stable and the last two digits of their serial number, they often take on new names after completing their indenture.

The Rokishi is inspired by Brando and Hercules,  from Urasawa's manga Pluto. There's a great article on the series here. Also check out 17776, which is excellent. Wikipedia's synopsis is here.
