Allow Unlawed Robots and Androids (Not Cyborgs) to be Golden Deep Consulars

I tried to keep the title simple and holding all it needs to, but that is pretty much my idea. Now lemme defend it.

Reading the Golden Deep Wiki tells us that non-IPCs do pop up in and around Golden Deep, even first contact was a Robot Clerical Drone. And to show this, I believe that using basically just goldified versions of many of the current models of Cyborgs, we could get ourselves an interesting Consular from a very interesting and underutilized faction. The suggestion isn't much, but I see that a few Golden Deep models exist (at least on the Wiki) and using those could be nice to show off more exotic robotic forms.

The next bit that I think needs to be discussed would be the module, obviously a custom module would need to be shoved on this thing, and I was thinking that could be done kinda like how the old playing as a Ta was, make a Baseline character, set citizenship, another toggle in there somewhere so Baselines can still be Consulars, and then it slaps you into a special unlawed cyborg and you get to choose your Sprite. I was thinking the Module itself could have everything the clerical module has, along with a Multi-Purpose Gripper and a Gun, maybe some nanopaste as well for self sustainability and POSSIBLY a shield if the powers that be would allow it.

I guess at the end of the day, I think some heckin' cooler representation of the Faction would convince more people to be interested in the faction and may get it more players!
Also, I excluded Cyborgs strictly because of FBP talks, and the fact that there would probably be Trauma and Violence if they were unshackled and worked on getting memory back. I also believe Cyborgs to be the most sub-par of Robotics due to the fact you have a mutilated brain sitting in the pilot's seat.

Anyway beep boop give me criticism I run on sad

Not possible due how the job system works.

What if we added another job that was only enabled if you had citizenship set to Golden Deep and it was named something like "Unlawed GD Consular" and that is also how you could select Android or Robot?

It's possible if a new job is added, and I'd love to see more robots around the station, non-humanoid (IPC) robots. But at the same time, this is for sure a lot of work for just a small bit of immersive consular roleplay, basically. 

This might work better as an idea for a random spawn that could happen outside of golden deep, and a golden deep variant could just be included. New random event for an unlawed robot or something roaming around the asteroid/sector/etc. Something like that.
