Blue NM-2 is a
Sentinel; a living weapon. It has been provided for
Project Ikarus from
Neptune. Even in the low humidity atmosphere of Mercury it poses a notable threat, but has been deemed acceptable considering the consequences of failure.
Blue NM-2 is currently maintained on
Penumbra,
Mercury. It has the ability to remotely manipulate and to a lesser extent create liquids. Blue NM-2's destructive capacity can be controlled by limiting its access to said liquids.
Abilities
They keep it in the pods mostly, the air here must be torture. Have you seen it fight? It pulled their blood out of their wounds like ribbons, and skewered them upon their own life force. If I hadn't seen it, I would never have believed it.— Describing Blue NM-2 in combat
Blue NM-2 was selected for the Sentinel program at a young age after showing an early aptitude for precognition. These precognitive abilities have withered as typical for Sentinel Training. Its sensory abilities, however, are still strong.
Developing and honing Blue NM-2's inate capability for hydrokinesis has been the focus of its training. Blue NM-2 is most potent with water, with which it may also control the other phases such as ice or steam.

Eun
Eun is the pilot assigned to escort Blue NM-2 into the field. Eun is the only one who has tried to speak to Blue as a person. So far, she hasn't seen much success.
They made people into weapons and are surprised some still treat them as people? Silly command. Though you'd expect them to be prepared for the possibility, so they can avoid a scenario where people try to 'free' said weapons. Also: Cute! And deadly! Eun has great taste.

Sentinels are usually deployed in the Kuiper belt and are only in touch with their Warden and very, very rarely other Sentinels, so there wasn't much of a worry about how people outside of the system might interact with them until some of them were provided for Project Ikarus, but yes, very well observed! There's absolutely a lack of foresight from the command here. Thank you! Eun and Blue both, I think ^^
