These children, after coming of age, are employed in various manners (in the books, mostly as interstellar spacecraft brainships or as the "brains" of cities) to work off the debt of their creation and training. They are all partnered with "Scouts" or "Brawns", humans specially trained to act as a companion or helper. The title derives from the fact that they are the mobile half of the partnership; their inability to go where "soft-shells" can is occasionally annoying to shell people, but not something they would exchange for the added abilities they are granted.

The Ship Who Sang (1969) collection (ISBN 0-345-33431-0) follows the adventures of one of these children, Helva, who when installed in her ship becomes XH-834. The stories recount her early infatuation with her first Brawn, Jennan, her period of mourning after his death, and her mature relationship with another Brawn, Niall.
