#quick character reference

[generally, i had an idea to mess up a bit with Murder Drones universe. If you have some ideas, i'll be more than glad to hear! :]

Origin.

[made some time after i watched pilot episode, the end of 2021 if i remember correctly]

It was quite a long time ago. Once people worked on a fairly large spy drone project, but due to the fact that many problems showed despite the "cool" idea, work on it was stopped. Ah, humans...

Years later, JcJenson found the plans of that robot and secretly created and improved them to monitor whether everything is well with Worker Drones (treated as cheap labor), making it kinda like surveillance, controlling and tracking their actions on an ongoing basis to improve their obedience. I mean, Reconnoiterer Drones had more of free will and visually were similar to Worker Drones. Sometimes it looked like Stockholm syndrome... oh those big companies ideas!

Rise of the Machines.

haha Terminator reference

As you might expect, RDs (=Reconnoiterer Drones) logically discovered that they do not want to do what they did so far, even though they had quite a lot of power (some were just perfectly comfortable with it). They wanted to make another job, they developed a bunch of cool skills like being creative in productive way, making things called art. At least WDs (=Worker Drones) called it like that.

Some of RDs identified themselves as WDs, some not. That's how they argued and finally divided as "Real Drones" and Workers. Of course, there were also neutral ones, halfway, etc, like in politics.

Riots and fights, riots and fights.

About one of the planets on which the riots were extremely loud, louder even than in France or the UK, Absolute Solver became interested and sent a few drones to assess the potential of them. Yeah, it was in such a developed state that it could sometimes send a few bots just to check if there's a possibility to enlarge its army. Well, there was a lot of potential, because RDs could change their visible forms. Hmmm...

Plague time.

because it's a tradition

Absolute Solver attacked RDs.

At the beginning these extreme factions wanted to infect themselves with AS, it seemed that they would get an advantage over the hostile fraction, but as you probably already guess it didn't happen as planned. RDs, as well as WDs, got poisoned their code. They seemed "better" but with time panic started to slowly enter the chat. There is no way back, silly gooses. Your windows defender can't help here, huh. Alt+F4 too.

It turned out, that there were some survivors ready to fight. They made their own version of Absolute Solver (i mean they called it like that, but they just made some augmentations by modifying the AS code from dead drone's bodies, very hard to do but possible). They added themselves some weapons, better vision, more disguises available. At that time, the little Panti grew up in one of the spare experimental bases of JcJ, along with some experimental Designations. But Panti... well, she was the only one, unofficial project of ambitious man.

[put your any OC here moment]

She was a modified model of a partially infected and transformed Drones, a mixture of everything a bit. Man wanted her to look as cool as Murder Drones (through which he almost died, trying to collect their parts and more reference pictures cuz in this timeline i claim that MDs are just mutated WDs send by Absolute Solver's alive carriers). He wanted to have his own Murder Drone looking bot, that could also magically make an illusion of any look she wanted for better adaptation to the present world and being relatively independent. She defended him quite a long time, but when AS evolved in her code, it not only cleaned her memories, but changed them.

That's why she attacked her creator and escaped to the other base... :'(

But she found a friend called Y.R. He was a classic Murder Drone, but his AS wasn't that "bad" so he could exist like a normal drone, sometimes going hunting WDs and teaching Panti a lot of their behavior and techniques. He also thought that JcJ sent him to eliminate WDs.

Later, Panti found out from one abandoned JcJ's computer an access to database with hidden files who she was really. Damn, she also uploaded herself old backup version of her OS, trying desperately to get rid of AS code.

Absolute Absolution.

or something, idk i played and a bit enjoyed Hitman Absolution but Blood Money in my heart forever

Some chaos happend, original AS accidentally met with her own weird AS and there was an epic fight in her mind. I see those animation memes of that event which i probably will never create through excess ideas and lack of time.

But

after more stable state, she started thinking that she's a member of exclusive group being self-proclaimed spies allegedly working for JcJ, and in fact for AS. "Gang" formed up and was spending most of their lives living in the gangstaaas paradise. It is slightly inspired by Agent 47's merc job for ICA in Hitman: Blood Money... if you're deep into lore of whole series, i think you could understand what kind of vibe i mean here.

Years and years later, after destructing more and more WDs clusters on various planets, Panti went back to planet where she grew up with Y.R. She found him dead cuz his AS made bloomey code kaboom after being in near of... Crucifix. There were more of them! More bodies that hit the floor, more confusion, more things to explain.

On the Crucifix was written: "If I failed, you try." with a very speedy font, like in stress.

weird...

Panti touched it and immediately felt thrills and glitches deep inside code. She found in near few WDs almost dead bodies, so she got an idea to check their system. They came to this place probably knowing that they could cure themselves of the AS, but for various reasons did not succeed. But at least because of their presence, Panti knew where exactly and how deep was her AS installed. Yeah, she copied infected Worker Drone OS into a software similar to virtualbox, just to be safe from eventual complications with AS. She compared her build-in WDs OS (or rather just basic things that seems like she has that soft to pretend WD) and marked every change, potentially a mutated code. After another long fight with AS in her source code, in addition of pity for the loss of her two friends which appeared at once in mind, and she barely escaped with life. But she succeed, free of infected code for now. Seems cool, like a real catharsis! i mean okay, i have completely no idea how to describe it as a good story, it's still in development.

Some complications.

because she's only human creation after all

As days passed, she was completely alone, trying to remember more about Y.R. cuz about her creator she wanted to forgor becauz she blamed herself of not keeping her code clean and therefore infection, and as a result death of man. Walking in the eternal night of Copper 9's forest, she started feeling strange. When it was too late, she discovered that AS tried to upload to her code remotely from the taken server nearby, so she decided to quickly destroy her GPS module, being the only one indicator of communication and knowledge about her location. She did not unaware install a lot of AS so that it could not be removed again, but that was enough to block some of her functions such as acid tail, blades instead of hands, guns from hands and disguising ability. Ah sh!t, here we go again...

In total, it was not the worst thing that happened to her, because she managed to keep the side blades from the forearm and her augmented vision allowing to see up to 5000km (giga zoom), thermal vision up to 1500km and kinesthetic perception of the world (i mean she touches floor and feels every nearby 50km object making any sound or reflecting other sounds, kinda like echolocation).

"Well... well, sh1t." Trying to get it out manually required space and tools! But eventually she got out one blade and changed it into two throwing blades, one silenced gun and learned how to make wings for short distances that she did not have at all. If used well, they could work like Demoman's stickybombs.

Trivia time!

why is she wearing glasses?

to slightly enhance vision, but mostly for aesthetic as she says. It's a bit like "why Drones are wearing hair/wigs?" cuz why not

Y.R.??

i should make his design too. Also i always call him YER, like Your Eternal Reward. He needs to have something connected with this knife, even Panti has more because she can be invisible for some time

Panti's fav quote?

it needs your brain to think if you don't know this one:

"That's what."

– She.

maybeee she has armband with a series number? :D

yes, here we go:

barcode and 0-1 had a meaning but i don't remember what i hid in there lol

unfortunately that's not a rickroll, just some Kacper Pitala type thing i guess
