Construct 8 (Tactics)

Construct 8, also known as Worker-8, is a character from Final Fantasy Tactics. It is a robot from the days of Saint Ajora Glabados that can be acquired as part of a sidequest. His birthday is June 20.

Reactivation
Construct 8 had long been offline when it was discovered by Besrudio Bunansa. When Ramza Beoulve returned to the Clockwork City of Goug after defeating Belias, Besrodio told him about the strange device he had located. Ramza noticed a symbol on the robot and realized that a Zodiac Stone, to be precise, the Aquarius Stone, was required to activate the robot. He managed to recover that stone during a mission to the Mining Town of Gollund. When he brought the stone back to Goug, he was able to activate Construct 8.

Construct 8 immediately requested orders. Mustadio told Ramza to give an order insisting he was its master. Ramza commanded Construct 8 to dance. Mustadio was upset with the order but amazed when he saw Construct 8 carrying it out. Then to see if it could fight, he told Construct 8 to "dispose of Mustadio." Construct 8 immediately pulverized Mustadio, and Ramza had to rush to get him a Phoenix Down. Construct 8 later accompanied Ramza to Nelveska Temple where they encountered Construct 7, a similar Automaton. They defeated it and recovered another Zodiac Stone, Cancer.

In Battle
Construct 8 uses Task skills, also known as Work, which can inflict heavy damage, but also costs a small amount of HP each time they are used. Being a robot, he cannot comprehend the concept of god(s), so he will always have the Atheist status effect. He is also classified as a monster, so he cannot learn abilities, change Jobs, or equip.

Interestingly, Construct 8 may provide a boost to a character trying to reach a higher level (platform or roof for example). Construct 8 is also immune to all negative statuses except Confusion, and is weak to Lightning-elemental attacks that do not involve Faith. He is also immune to all other elements except Water, and starts with 70 Bravery and 0 Faith.
