Thank you for purchasing the Ambush 6000 Personal Companion from Pharos Electronics!! We hope that this owner’s manual will provide you with all of the information you need to fully enjoy your Pharos Electronics product.
Remember, we’re nothing without you!!
The Ambush 6000 is a self-sufficient bio-machine specifically designed to please YOU. As part of the Magic EmpireTM line of products, it is also able to do battle with other Magic EmpireTM products, including Albino Baboon 4.0, Dung Beetle III, and Suzy Death Loves You! Collect all 400 of them!
Ambush 6000 is fully hypo-allergenic, with titanium leaves that can resist temperatures of up to 5000° K, and a non-abrasive silksteel tongue. Its innards consist of a bio-replicator stomach, which actually recycles common detritus and converts it into biological products suitable for human consumption in compliance with PharosCorp Sanitary Code 52, Section 45.19100.69. This bio-replicator also simulates the natural defenses of the Ambush 6000’s biological counterpart — the ambush — which has been extinct for over three centuries, courtesy of PharosCorp! If it makes your life easier, it must be from PharosCorp!
Ambush 6000 is equipped with thermal sensors on its titanium leaves which allow it to navigate and operate even in low-light settings, and a holographic projector which, among its other myriad uses, can serve as a monitor for debugging purposes. (Remember! Unauthorized use of PharosCorp products can and will result in criminal and civil charges!)
Proper care of your Ambush 6000 is important to its well-being. It is designed to endear itself to you, so be certain to feed it every day, water it occasionally, and send it to battle with other Magic EmpireTM products as often as possible! If your Ambush should become damaged, do not attempt repairs yourself, but instead immediately bring it to your authorized dealer of PharosCorp products where it will be repaired fully for a nominal fee.
The Ambush 6000 PC utilizes a state-of-the-art voice recognition system and is fluent in 400 unique languages and dialects. By default, it will behave in the way its extinct counterpart would have, ruffling its leaves and panting with its mouth open happily in an attempt to communicate with you, but when clarity is required, it will utilize its holoprojector to display system messages and visual aids.
As you spend more time with your Ambush 6000 PC, it will adapt to its environment, gradually learning more about you and your needs, and discovering new ways of attacking other Magic EmpireTM products! What special attacks will YOU find?
As we release new patches and auxiliary modules for your Ambush 6000 PC, they will be available for purchase at your local authorized PharosCorp dealer. To apply the patch and plug-in modules, simply feed them to the Ambush 6000 PC and it will install them automatically. (Use of unauthorized PharosCorp modules in this Ambush 6000 PC product is strictly prohibited, and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.) Your Ambush 6000 PC will retain these modular installations even after exposure to EMP pulses and other trauma to it, although PharosCorp cannot expressly guarantee the product will function optimally as a result. As stated above, your Ambush 6000 PC should be brought to your nearest PharosCorp dealer for repairs after even minor trauma.
We hope that this Ambush 6000 Personal Companion will provide you with years of enjoyment. We also recommend you purchase all of the other Magic EmpireTM Personal Companions as well, so that you can have a menagerie of loyal friends!
