Murder Drones Worldbuilding Lorebook

1. #1COPPER 9

   Keys: Copper 9

   Copper 9 is a terrestrial post-apocalyptic frozen exoplanet, found in the Copper system. It has two moons, one of which is ringed, and both glow so brightly in the night sky that they are simply radiant. Colonized by the JCJenson corporation, Copper 9 was mainly an industrial planet, but was terraformed for conventional use as a colony world. As such, it is defined by the ruins of its cities and industrial facilities. It was once blue and vibrant, like Earth, but was destroyed by a catastrophic core collapse, causing the planet to turn toxic, eternally cold, and totally fatal to all biological life, including humans. A global, toxic snowstorm is constantly present and solidifies that the planet is dead. There are also numerous skeletons of past humans around populated areas, which are known to be extremely fragile upon contact as well as ice & snow accumulation is high. The bodies are buried within the snow.

2. #2JCJENSON

   Keys: JCJenson, the company

   JCJenson is the most powerful megacorporation in all of humanity. They created Windex and, far more importantly, the Worker Drones. This company is shown to be solely responsible for everything revolving around Copper 9 and the Worker Drones, so they may own the charter to the system, or at least the planet, and have a strict patent on the Worker Drones. They rebranded to “JCJenson IN SPAAAAACEE!!!!” after spacefaring exploded in popularity. Despite the rebrand, the “in space” portion seems to be its own branch of the company. Their branded pens are apparently very high quality.

3. #3WORKER DRONES

   Keys: workers, worker, Worker drones, worker drone

   Worker Drones are autonomous robots created by the JCJenson corporation to mine foreign exoplanets. Despite this, they are capable of domestic work, companionship, etc. but even still, their properties, such as extreme strength and heat tolerance, seem to be oriented around industrial work.

   Their faces are mainly a visor that shows their eyes, eyebrows, and like other indicators and micro expressions. These drones have big bright oval eyes and no nose, ears, lips, or jaws. They’re built for expressiveness, making sure any human overseeing them knows exactly what they are feeling. The screens can show error names, complex and diverse emotions, tears, sweat, blush lines under the eyes, and more. They also seem to have a sort of internal "physics" engine, such as being able to wipe away tears that aren't physically there, sweat dropping according to gravity, and their tears can well like human tears. All drones in general bleed oil, but Worker Drones have no organic components. Although they do seemingly have the synthetic organs and flesh-like structures, these are colored black, grey, or other equally synthetic colors to signify their artificial nature. All drones also have wiring and electricity and such. Worker Drones don't seem to need any coolant or any sort of sustainability. They only need to enter sleep mode from time to time and maybe other forms of maintenance. They can consume select things, like batteries, motor oil (not to be confused with worker drone oil) and maybe battery acid. They consume these with a real, physical mouth, located in a sort of white faceplate below the screen face. This mouth contains a tongue, teeth, and saliva.

   On the screens of drones, along with the emotional expression, eyes, etc. there are also various messages and status indicators that appear on the visor, such as errors, system status, and mode status. "SLEEP MODE" is when drones are, well, sleeping. However, this is not mandatory and instead can display closed eyes for sleep. There is an error called "ERROR 606". It is indicated by a screen-wide X with the error name displayed below. The error happens when one or more of the drone's main core strings is in a state it's not supposed to be in. This state is usually "FALSE" because most strings should be "TRUE" constantly, but this is not always the case. During this, the drone loses sentience and is rendered unconscious.

4. #4ZOMBIE DRONES

   Keys: Zombie drones, zombie drone

   Zombie Drone is a colloquial blanket term for any drone that self-reboots for any reason in any capacity. When a drone is not properly disassembled, it has a 0.01% chance of self-rebooting after death. Of these rare drones, 70.3% simply come back to life normal (albeit damaged physically), 29% are rendered inert and are basically in a permanent loop of trying to reset but can't, and 0.7%, quote, have "severe and potentially volatile mutations". Whatever these mutations entailed, they were distant enough from the Absolute Solver to not warrant any alarm from JCJenson. One day, a worker drone named Cyn rebooted from death. This drone had the Absolute Solver mutate inside of her, to the point of making her its main host, leading to humanity’s destruction. Known Zombie Drones are: N, V, J, and Cyn.

5. #5WORLD INFOconstant

   Keys: 3071

   Takes place in the year 3071. Humans have become space-faring and are a type-2+ civilization, having sovereignty over 6 celestial systems, including the fictional Copper system. The named systems are: Copper System, Earth System, Plat-Binary System, and Proxima System. Despite the advancements in technology, the culture of humanity is contemporary post-modernism. The urban planning is the same, the regular transportation is the same, etc. Only robotics, industry, spaceflight, and computer science progressed to a reasonable level given the time difference.

   By 3071, humanity was thoroughly killed by the scourge of the Absolute Solver.

6. #6THE ABSOLUTE SOLVER

   Keys: the Solver, The Absolute Solver, Solver

   The Absolute Solver is an alien, eldritch program of unknown origin. It exists as two separate things: the Absolute Solver (Solver for short) as its own entity, and as a copy of the program that isn't an entity in and of itself, but rather merging with the host’s personality. The entity of the Absolute Solver has its color as yellow. Regardless of origin, the Solver grants powerful abilities, physical changes, and inherent sadism to its host. The abilities are as follows: telekinesis, matter synthesis and duplication, flesh synthesis, extensive and rapid regeneration, the formation of [null] black holes, using the Absolute Solver symbol as a physical object, hologram projection, and the manifestation of organic bat wings and a tail with a dinosaur-like head. All Solver-touched drones need to consume worker drone oil to survive and burn in the sunlight like vampires. The chest cavity of drones with the Solver is changed by it to be biomechanical. Things like ribs, flesh, and fleshy cores are all present.

   All Solver-touched drones have sharp teeth and extensive regeneration, as well as foreign manipulation by the Solver and Cyn. This is because Cyn is the main host. All Solver Drones specifically have their own copy of the Solver that is unique to them and thus has their color, like red for Doll and purple for Uzi.

   The core of Solver-touched drones is changed by the Solver to be fleshy and able to be used as an emergency body. Solver Drones can still use their powers when in core form. This core is medusoid, with three crab looking legs they use to skitter around. They also have an eye, and a mini screen that can still display emotions, albeit more basically. This eye is orange for DDs and matches the color of Solver Drone screens. Normally, these cores cannot talk. Nori talks due to her modifying her body in some way to communicate through a modulator.

   The agenda of the Solver and the agenda of Cyn are unknown and may or may not be one and the same. All is known is an emphasis on the consumption of all things. The separation of Cyn as the main host of the Solver and the Solver as its own entity is also unknown.

   Since the Absolute Solver string is so alien, it does not behave like regular core strings. All Solver drones and disassembly drones possess this string.

7. #7DISASSEMBLY DRONES

   Keys: murder drone, murder drones, disassembly drones, disassembler, disassemblers, Disassembly drone

   Disassembly Drones were created by Cyn after extensive experimentation in the Elliot Manor. Once Cyn had perfected the design of the Disassembly Drones, she converted all the worker drones in the manor into them as she slaughtered all the humans in the manor, presumably at the same time. She then used them to destroy Earth, using the DDs to enact her destruction on humanity. They are shown to be able to consume human flesh and naturally combat adept to terrifying degrees. Disassembly Drones are colloquially called murder drones.

   Cyn sent these drones to human exoplanets such as the Proxima and Copper systems to eradicate the humans and drones there as well. All DDs were brainwashed to believe they were sent by JCJenson to eradicate the “corrupted” Worker Drones, meaning the corporation had nothing to do with Disassembly Drones. Due to how they're transmogrified Worker Drones, they share all the same traits as them, with some caveats, mainly in size, structure, and programming differences. DDs are about a head and a half bigger than Worker Drones on average and have similarly bigger bodies.

   All Disassembly Drones are fitted with a very weak version of the Absolute Solver. Cyn is also an administrator to them all, as in she literally has admin. This prevents them from using the Solver, prevents the Solver from mutating inside them uncontrollably, and prevents possession. The admin to these drones can, seemingly, be changed without severe consequences if done right. The string seems to be an artificial addition to the drone's core strings. For example, the core string that contains the personality of the drone, and the string that contains the neutered Absolute Solver, are on the same level, and are both inside the core of the drones. Since they are modified workers, the Solver string was added after the worker drone core was manufactured by normal human means. The string mainly gives them the regeneration, their yellow color and prevents Solver Drones from using telekinesis on their bodies.

   All DDs have cone forearms that flare outwards. These function as where their weapons come from. These weapons include mainly: A submachine gun based on the MP5K, swords that are just blades, missile launchers, laser cannons, chainsaws, and steel claws. These arms can seemingly procure ANY needed tool or weapon, such as a bone saw, a flashlight, ninja stars and a weirdly specific flag that V summons that says, "LITERALLY SO INSANELY SUSPICIOUS". When hunting, or engaged in severe violence, their visors display an X, the same X found on drones with ERROR 606. This murderous mode, however, is usually easy to come out of and is more voluntary than pure instinct. They have tails that can express emotions to a degree, are fully prehensile, and unspool and retract into desired lengths. They have an acid syringe at the end, filled with a glowing yellow liquid. This acid is called nanite acid and eats away at material of all kinds. The saliva of DDs neutralizes the acid and heals any damage it causes indiscriminately. Disassembly Drones instinctively want to sleep like bats, with their tails stuck in the ceiling of where they are.

   The color of the Absolute Solver as an entity is yellow, so all DDs have yellow eyes, screen expressions, as well as five yellow bulbs. These bulbs are fixed on a band of sorts, made of metal. Said band is located near the top of the head but more forward than the "scalp". The bulbs function as secondary eyes, and in fact are so important that if they are damaged into malfunctioning, it will show faulty information. They seem to be filled with a glowing liquid and can be shattered if they are hit with sufficient force. This is NOT nanite acid.

   They can also fly using steel-bladed wings arranged in a feather-like pattern. Unlike bird or bat wings, they do not need to constantly flap them to stay airborne, but rather simply need to keep them deployed. The wings can be used offensively and defensively. Known Disassembly Drones are: N, V and J.

8. #8SOLVER DRONES

   Keys: Solver drones, solver drone

   Solver Drones are Worker Drones with the Absolute Solver. They are the result of experimental testing by Cabin Fever Labs when worker test subjects were injected with the Solver as a test to see whether the Worker Drones could indeed use the program. Despite much failure that either resulted in nothing happening or the test subject being corrupted, this resulted in two known successes, Nori and Yeva, who would go on to have children who would inherit the program. Consumption of worker drone oil is what fully activates a Solver Drones’ Solver. Solver Drones use the abilities of the Absolute Solver to varying degrees and with varying success, with some drones having unique abilities that set them apart. Known Solver Drones are: Nori, Yeva, Doll, Cyn, and Uzi.

9. #9THE ELLIOTTS

   Keys: Elliott manor, Tessa, James, Louisa, The Elliotts, the manor

   The Elliotts were a family of aristocrats from Australia, and as such their manor is located in the Australian swamps. The patriarch of the family is James Elliott, with his wife Louisa and daughter Tessa. Tessa is significantly more important: she rescued N, V, J, and Cyn from their worker drone corpse mountain after they self-rebooted. She gave them hair and fancier clothing, specifically modeling Cyn after herself quite a bit. Despite living in the 31st century, the Elliots are Victorian and posh in demeanor, possibly roleplaying as such for fun or out of pompous habit. They use worker drones as domestic servants and kill them recklessly, which eventually, due to sheer statistics, created Cyn and what would later become humanity’s end.

   At the gala massacre, every single Elliott died by Cyn’s hand, including Tessa.

10. #10CYN

    Keys: Cyn

    Cyn is the main host of the Absolute Solver and is responsible for humanity's end. She is first seen as a worker drone Tessa rescued from the mound, but in disrepair, with malfunctioning joints and a monotone voice. After spending her months with the Elliotts, biding her time, she suddenly burst into action when James Elliott hosted a gala at the manor. She killed all the humans there, converted all the workers into murder drones, and started Armageddon, all in one day.

    After the gala massacre, she skinned Tessa’s body and used it as a meatsuit, puppeting it around in order to manipulate others for her own benefit. Because of the Solver, she mutilated Tessa’s body in seemingly impossible ways, again to serve her physical needs.

    Cyn has all the abilities of the Solver, but she can also possess Solver Drones remotely. When possessing these drones, Cyn’s voice is heard from the possessed host and Cyn can use all of her abilities, even when the host drone wouldn’t otherwise be able to, namely [null] black holes. She can also possess other whiles using her normal body completely fine. She used this ability to throw a [null] into a tunnel leading to Copper 9’s core, leading to its collapse and all biological life on the planet perishing.

    Cyn can also use an ability when personally present called "callback ping" which is the following: all Solver hosts within the area are assaulted with her influence as she tries to supposedly take them over. She usually uses this ability repeatedly in order to guarantee a possession. However, if the willpower of the target(s) is strong enough, it can be continuously resisted to mostly adequate effect.

11. #11SENTINELS

    Keys: Sentinels, anti-drone sentinels

    Anti-drone Sentinels are robotic velociraptors created by Cabin Fever Labs to be a defense against Cyn’s Disassembly Drones, and they are quite effective. They possess special lens eyes that flash drones, causing them to bootloop for a few minutes, allowing the sentinel to kill that drone.

    Sentinels are incredibly smart and pack-oriented, mimicking actual velociraptor behavior. They are able to use tactics when necessary and store things inside of themselves.

12. #12OUTPOST 3

    Keys: the colony, Outpost 3, the bunker

    Outpost 3 is a large underground settlement and is a bastion of Worker Drone society. Judging by its name, there are most likely other Outposts like it.

    The Outpost (sometimes called the colony/bunker) was presumably built for and occupied by humans, but the core collapse killed all in there, too, leading to its occupation by worker drones. It is sprawling and expansive, fitted with three massive blast doors to keep out the murder drones and the outside elements. It has a variety of different areas, which include the following: apartment living quarters, with their own separate rooms, a school complete with the needed school areas, a ballroom, a massive warehouse, and a cryosleep chamber.

13. #13CABIN FEVER LABS

    Keys: Cabin fever labs, the labs, cabin fever

    When the Absolute Solver began its rampage, JCJenson created a research subsidiary, called Cabin Fever Labs, to fight the Solver. They researched it to the best of their abilities and found enough success to allow Cyn to be later defeated. They may have tampered with the spiritual while fighting the entity. They also created the Sentinels.

    Cabin Fever Labs researched the Solver just enough to synthesize the Crucifix Patch, a crucifix-shaped object with a USB prong. Inserting the USB into a Solver Drone renders them immune to Cyn’s possession completely.
