CHARACTER SKETCHES

T-800

The T-800, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger in both Terminator movies, is a cyborg with a metallic endoskeleton, flesh covering and a 120 year power supply. It has superhuman strength, can learn from its surroundings and must obey and protect its master, who in T2 is John Connor. It also is programmed to be incapable of self destruction. Therefore it follows a slight variation of Asimov's three laws of robotics where it cannot injure its master, however it can harm any other human being, it obeys its master and it protects its own existence.

T-1000

The T-1000, played by Robert Patrick in Terminator 2 is a more sophisticated model of the terminator. It is a shape-shifting liquid metal killing machine which can also repair itself when it is damaged. Not only can it assume the form of other people, but it can also change the form of its body to produce sharp, deadly weapons.
