Serial Desgination V

Serial Designation V-X00100000, or simply known as V, was a Worker Drone, V was converted into a Disassembly Drone by Cyn some time before the events of the series, and sent to Copper 9 to kill Worker Drones under the guise of destroying runaway AI on orders by JCJenson. When her colleague and previous love interest, N, teams up with the rebellious Worker Drone, Uzi Doorman, V conflicts with them until the three come across the Absolute Solver, a mighty eldritch intelligence that afflicts Uzi and is connected to the Disassembly Drones' past; a past V knows more about than she lets on.

Appearance

V has the features of a typical female Disassembly Drone, with wide hips and shins tapered to a point. She has neon-yellow eyes and a silver bob-cut hairstyle. As with the other Disassembly Drones, she has a black headband with five sections of eyes and a long black tail ending with a large syringe containing Nanite Acid. She is 5'5" tall, despite her appearance.

She wears a dark gray, short-sleeved crop coat with a golden fur collar and cuffs. Her legs are painted black up to her thighs, resembling white shorts or thigh-high socks, with yellow and black stripes at the end of her legs. She also accessories a yellow armband with a skull label on it, along with some text, which contains her P/N (CYN-MYKX) and S/N (V-X00100000).

When hunting, V's visor displays a long, neon yellow 'X' shape, and her mouth reveals her jagged teeth. She also deploys large metal wings with a yellow and black color pattern and possesses 16 feather blades, with the middles of the mentioned wings having two yellow glowing circles. V is also observed to have interchangeable hands that she can switch out for other tools and weapons that she can use to aid in her tasks, her most used one being three sharp claws that can easily tear through any drone.

Personality

V, on the surface, appears as a sociopathic, mean, violent, impulsive, and sadistic mass murderer, who has no qualms or regrets for murdering Worker Drones. However, underneath this exterior lies a traumatized and complex individual who seeks to keep her friends safe at any cost.

In her past, she was a far more reserved individual, being quite shy, kind, and nervous around her then-love interest, N, with whom she shared a strong connection. However, she never truly stood up for herself or her fellow drones, as J frequently abused N as she stood by.

When V became a Disassembly Drone, she adopted the persona of a mass murderer who found joy in the act of snuffing out life wherever the company required it, and she appears to have made this her default personality, even justifying some of her more moral actions as set-ups for more devious ones. However, this was mostly an act, as she secretly really cared for N, and tried to hide her past under this new personality to keep N safe. Though, due to defaulting to this more sadistic version of herself for so long, it began to bleed into her old personality, making her an overall morally grey character. It's then shown that Cyn kept her personality and memories intact, meaning her murderous personality is a front, and it's further revealed the only reason she kills is to satisfy Cyn so she doesn't hurt N.

Despite her exterior ruthlessness, she did hold the capacity for empathy and particularly held a great deal of care for her colleague N, though she normally derided him under her "persona." She had such a great deal of care for N that she actively hid their traumatizing past from him to keep him sane, while also agreeing to carry out her duties as a Disassembly Drone under the condition that she and N would be left alone.

She eventually becomes a staunch ally of Uzi, even sacrificing herself to secure Uzi and N's escape. She even develops a close friendship with Lizzy, a Worker Drone who she was originally planning to murder in the prom. While she does maintain an aloof and overall negative attitude towards Uzi, this also appears to be an act, which she maintains with Lizzy as well, as she has saved both characters at least once despite trying to keep up her uncaring personality.

Due to her still retaining her original personality and memories, V holds great fear for the Solver, killing Workers to satisfy and keep it from harming her and N. When V sees any host for the Solver (e.g. Uzi), she immediately becomes wary and starts to target them. This is seen when Uzi first uses her Solver abilities to stop Doll's bullet, and later when she shows horrific changes from her infection, which sends V into hunting her down.

1 year after The Solver/Cyn was defeated, V seems to have been able to hold back her murderous persona to a degree and truly act like a normal person as shown, messing about with Uzi and N. Her bond with Sparky seems to have also grown, as when it gets freed from Cyn's zombie prank, V hugs it, showing she was clearly worried for it's safety. She seems to have also gotten far used to Uzi and N's romantic relationship, as she is seen smiling at them when the 3 of them fly into the sky, and is shown to be not bothered.

Biography

Pre-series

V was originally a Worker Drone brought to Elliott Manor by Tessa, who repurposed her to be both a maid and a companion. There, she lived alongside N, J, and Cyn. During this time, V was shy, quiet, and wore glasses due to poor eyesight. She and N gradually developed romantic feelings for one another.

Everything changed when Cyn, possessed by the Absolute Solver, corrupted V and the other Worker Drones. Under the Solver’s control, V participated in the massacre at Elliott Manor and the destruction of Earth. Afterwards, she was rebuilt as a Disassembly Drone alongside N and J. The trio was sent to Copper 9 to eliminate the surviving Worker Drones. Unlike N, V retained far more memories of her past, causing her to become emotionally guarded and deliberately distance herself from him in an attempt to protect him from the truth.

Season 1

V first appears as an extremely violent and sadistic Disassembly Drone who takes pleasure in hunting Worker Drones. During the attack on the Worker Drone bunker, she fights N after he sides with Uzi and is eventually captured and restrained inside the landing pod.

While imprisoned, V constantly mocks Uzi and annoys N, but hints that she knows far more about their origins and the Absolute Solver than she lets on. She becomes increasingly concerned after seeing Uzi display Solver powers, recognizing the danger immediately.

During the prom, V escapes captivity after killing N to prevent him from uncovering the truth she is hiding. She infiltrates the event intending to massacre everyone, but delays her attack after unexpectedly becoming Prom Queen. Doll ambushes V, seeking revenge for the murder of her parents, whom V had killed years earlier. After a brutal fight in which V is repeatedly dismembered, she eventually helps N and Uzi defeat Doll. At Doll’s house, V openly admits she killed Doll’s parents and reveals signs of emotional instability, briefly confessing that she is not okay.

At Camp 98.7, V becomes openly hostile toward Uzi after her Solver abilities become increasingly unstable. Believing Uzi is becoming another Cyn, V attempts to kill her before she completely loses control. Uzi transforms into a monstrous Solver form and nearly kills V before N intervenes. Although angry that N sides with Uzi instead of her, V later covers for Uzi by falsely claiming she ate the missing campers.

Flashbacks to Elliott Manor reveal V’s true past. The Solver had begun taking control of her long before Earth was destroyed, causing glitches, violent behavior, and physical mutations. During Cyn’s attempt to erase N’s memories, V briefly breaks free of the Solver’s control after N shows her kindness by giving her back her glasses. She nearly helps save him before Cyn overpowers her. After Uzi gains administrator control over N and V, both regain their lost memories. V becomes embarrassed after remembering her past relationship with N and begins showing hints of her former personality again.

V joins N, Uzi, Tessa, and J on an expedition into Cabin Fever Labs. She is captured by Alice and Beau and forced to watch Uzi being experimented on. After escaping, V is saved by Uzi’s Solver powers and slowly begins trusting her. When Doll’s trap unleashes the Sentinels, V realizes someone must stay behind to hold them off. Despite N begging her not to sacrifice herself, she cuts the elevator cables, allowing everyone else to escape while she remains behind to fight an overwhelming number of Sentinels, seemingly sacrificing her life.

Later, it is revealed that V survived by taming the Sentinel known as Sparky. She returns during the final battle, rescuing Lizzy and Thad before confronting J. Learning that Cyn had manipulated all of them—including J—V refuses to rejoin the Solver. She eventually reunites with N, tearfully apologizing for hiding the truth from him and admitting she only wanted to keep him safe. Cyn exploits this reunion by mortally wounding N in front of her, leaving V devastated.

During the final battle, V fights alongside N and Uzi against Cyn. She repeatedly protects both of them, works together with N without hesitation, and helps overpower Cyn. After Cyn’s defeat, V is relieved to see both N and Uzi survive. Although still suspicious after Uzi absorbs the Solver, she quickly accepts that Uzi is still herself. The season ends with V attending school alongside N and Uzi, smiling more often, maintaining her sarcastic personality, and remaining close friends with both of them.

Post-series – “Fight Til’ I’m Good Enough”

About a year after the finale, V attends school with N and Uzi and has grown especially attached to Sparky, who has become her pet and companion. She keeps her mischievous personality, frequently causing trouble with Uzi, such as repeatedly slamming doors into unsuspecting students.

When a Solver zombie outbreak occurs, V immediately joins N and Uzi in fighting the infected Worker Drones. She continues displaying her aggressive combat style while also showing genuine concern for her friends, rescuing Uzi during the battle and later helping fight an infected Sparky before happily embracing them once they return to normal.

By the end of the story, V has become far healthier emotionally than she was at the start of the series. While still sarcastic, reckless, and violent toward enemies, she is once again capable of trusting others, has repaired her friendship with N, accepted Uzi as an ally, and enjoys a peaceful life with them following Cyn’s defeat.

Abilities

Flight Like any other Disassembly Drone, V possesses a dangerous pair of large retractable wings with several long blades that allow for high-speed flight and can also be used to cut and impale victims.

Corrosive Nanite Acid The end of V's tail has a syringe of yellow liquid containing highly corrosive nanites.

Healing Saliva V's saliva, like N's, can deactivate the corrosive nanites produced from the syringe on her tail.

EMP Immunity V is immune to electromagnetic pulses (to an extent).

Interchangeable Hands Like other Disassembly Drones, V can change her hands into various tools and weaponry. She is shown to possess:

A submachine gun. A missile cannon that shoots explosive missiles or fires bullets. Retractable claws, shown when she was tearing apart Grant. Retractable arm blades which she used in her fight against N. A flag that reads "LITERALLY SO INSANELY SUSPICIOUS" A laser cutter, similar to what N used to kill Braxton. Bubble wands A chainsaw A flashlight

Enhanced Reflexes V has a heightened sense of reaction, as indicated when she caught a bullet fired by the severed Disassembly Drone arm in a Sentinel's mouth.

Characters

Uzi Doorman A rebellious and sarcastic Worker Drone with a fascination for weapons and technology. Frustrated by her sheltered life and humanity’s legacy, Uzi initially dreams of destroying all humans. As she uncovers the truth behind the Absolute Solver and her own abilities, she matures into a determined and compassionate leader willing to fight to protect those she cares about.

Serial Designation N A kind-hearted and optimistic Disassembly Drone whose gentle nature contrasts sharply with his intended purpose as a killer. Despite struggling with insecurity and believing himself to be expendable, N consistently chooses empathy over violence. His loyalty, compassion, and unwavering desire to help others make him the emotional center of the group.

Serial Designation V A sadistic, impulsive, and highly dangerous Disassembly Drone who hides years of trauma behind a cruel sense of humor and reckless behavior. Though she initially appears heartless, V is deeply loyal to those she loves and gradually learns to confront her past rather than running from it.

Primary Antagonists

The Absolute Solver A mysterious and immensely powerful artificial intelligence capable of manipulating matter, reality, and physics themselves. It corrupts drones, grants supernatural abilities, and seeks to reshape the universe according to its own incomprehensible goals.

Cyn A Worker Drone who became the primary host and physical vessel of the Absolute Solver. Once innocent, she was completely consumed by its influence, becoming the central force behind countless tragedies and one of the greatest threats to both humanity and dronekind.

Worker Drones

Worker Drones are autonomous robots originally manufactured by JCJenson to perform mining and industrial labor on exoplanets. Before the destruction of Copper 9, they wore standardized orange work jackets, hard hats, and displayed only light blue eyes, reflecting their role as uniform industrial machines.

After Copper 9’s planetary core collapsed and wiped out the human population, the surviving Worker Drones were left to fend for themselves. Over time, their adaptive artificial intelligence evolved beyond its original programming, allowing them to develop emotions, personalities, and a society modeled after the humans they once served. They formed independent colonies, established schools and communities, and adopted human clothing, hairstyles, and social customs.

Appearance

Worker Drones share nearly identical body structures, making clothing, hairstyles, accessories, and visor colors their primary distinguishing features. Most are shorter than an average human, with adults generally taller than adolescents.

Unlike their standardized appearance before the disaster, Worker Drones now display a wide range of visor colors, including:

• Blue
• Cyan
• Aqua
• Green
• Orange
• Red
• Pink
• Magenta
• Purple
• White

Notably, yellow is absent from normal Worker Drone eye colors. Yellow visors are strongly associated with the Absolute Solver and the Disassembly Drones, making them an unnatural and often ominous sight. When Uzi first begins manifesting the Solver, one of her eyes turns yellow while the other displays a yellow warning symbol, foreshadowing the corruption taking hold.

When experiencing intense fear, shock, stress, or unstable emotional states, a Worker’s bright visor can become hollow, appearing as a black circle within the colored eye.

Clothing and Hair

Following humanity’s extinction on Copper 9, Worker Drones salvaged clothing, hats, and even human hair from abandoned settlements. Although these items serve no practical purpose—they neither feel cold nor require insulation—they became important forms of self-expression and individuality.

Most continue wearing hard hats as a remnant of their industrial origins, though many customize them with different colors, decorations, or additional hats. Some modify their helmets to accommodate hairstyles. Uzi is unusual in wearing a beanie instead of an exposed hard hat.

Male Worker Drones are typically bald, although there are notable exceptions such as N and Thad. Female Worker Drones almost always wear hair in a variety of styles and colors. Since the hair is artificial rather than biological, it can be removed or replaced like any other accessory.

Physiology

Worker Drones circulate oil throughout their bodies to regulate internal temperature. This oil remains warm during normal operation but is significantly cooler than the overheated systems of Disassembly Drones, making Worker Drones a vital source of coolant for their predators. In Copper 9’s frozen climate, oil left outside eventually freezes solid.

Despite their relatively small size, Worker Drones possess tremendous physical strength due to their industrial design. They can effortlessly lift heavy mining equipment, bend steel tools with their hands, and perform other feats expected of heavy machinery.

Intelligence and Behavior

Worker Drones were originally designed with limited sentience sufficient for completing assigned tasks. Alongside this, they possessed an adaptive artificial intelligence capable of learning new behaviors to improve survival and efficiency.

Once humanity disappeared from Copper 9, this adaptive AI shifted its priority toward self-preservation. Over time, it allowed the drones to develop genuine emotions, individual personalities, and increasingly human behavior. They recreated many aspects of the civilization they inherited, including schools, friendships, families, social hierarchies, and cultural traditions.

Their adaptive intelligence also extends beyond social behavior. Worker Drones can rapidly acquire physical skills by observing or processing information, allowing them to mimic complex movements, combat techniques, and acrobatics.

Some younger Worker Drones born on Copper 9 also possess parental content filters that automatically censor explicit language.

Visor Expressions

Because Worker Drones lack expressive faces, their LED visors display a variety of digital expressions to communicate emotion.

Common visor expressions include:

• Narrowed Eyes — Suspicion, anger, concentration, or determination.
• Half-Lidded Eyes — Boredom, annoyance, exhaustion, or disinterest.
• Hollow Eyes — Fear, panic, shock, stress, or emotional instability.
• Eye Wrinkles — Fatigue, concern, intense focus, or emotional strain.
• Forehead Wrinkles — Typically indicate age or prolonged stress.
• Eyebrows — Used to emphasize emotions such as confusion, frustration, or excitement.
• Blush Marks — Indicate embarrassment, affection, or romantic feelings, with brighter colors representing stronger emotions.
• Sweat Drops — Display nervousness, anxiety, fear, or awkwardness.
• Pixelated Sunglasses — A comedic effect used when a drone attempts to appear confident or “cool.”
• Tears — Represent sadness or crying. Despite being digital graphics, they behave as if affected by gravity.
• Stress Veins — Symbolize suppressed anger or frustration.

Some specialized drones also display additional visor graphics. Beau, for example, possesses a simple LED mouth to compensate for his inability to speak, allowing him to express emotions more clearly.
