Humans: At some point between the present day and the 3000's, humanity began interstellar colonization and spread across the universe, colonizing 6 different exoplanets across 5 different solar systems, only 3 of which we have the names for: those being the real life Proxima System, the fictionalized Plat-Binary System, and the fictionalized Copper System.

One such colony was established in the Copper System by megacorporation JCJenson on an exoplanet dubbed Copper 9, primarily for the purpose of mineral resource extraction and general industry. It featured large scale cities, advanced disaster shelters, urbanized metropolises, vast evergreen forests, and recreational areas for its occupants alongside spaces for the colony's primary purpose of mineral extraction. To this end, JCJenson at some point developed sapient androids called Worker Drones. Worker Drones were designed to be stronger, tougher, and more obedient than human laborers, factors that allowed a relatively small contingent of humans to oversee vast amounts of robotic drones. Despite their primary use as industrial equipment, the human-like forms and the sentience of Worker Drones allowed them to perform many other functions, though they were still looked down upon as property and treated poorly by their owners. This was not unanimous however, as there are two onscreen instances of humans showing compassion to Worker Drones. One human made a habit of "adopting" discarded worker drones and using them as companions and additional servants in her family's manor, while another human attempted to protect one during one of JCJenson's experiments gone wrong.

Eventually, an AI with reality-manipulating powers dubbed the Absolute Solver would manifest itself inside an improperly disposed Worker Drone, integrating itself into the Elliott household. In part due to experiencing the discrimination against Worker Drones by humans, the Absolute Solver became determined to kill off humanity (save for one human it intended to spare) and devour its colonized planets in order to satiate its endless hunger. To do so, the Solver hijacked the other Worker Drone servants in the manor and upgraded them into techno-organic Disassembly Drones. The Solver declared war on humanity by slaughtering all the attendants of a gala hosted by the Elliott family before setting out to do the same to the rest of Earth's population. Despite heavy military opposition, Earth and all the humans on it were overrun, and eventually annihilated once the Solver consumed the planet's core. The Solver then presumably did the same for the other human exoplanets, with a computer terminal showing that the Proxima System directly followed, followed by the Plat-Binary System, leaving three systems remaining: the Copper system, and two systems, their fates unknown.

At some point around the destruction of Earth, scientists on various exoplanets (most notably Copper 9) began researching the Absolute Solver in the hopes of combating it. From a hidden underground laboratory on Copper 9, human researchers deliberately manifested the Absolute Solver in select Worker Drones in order to study its effects and develop a patch that would release affected drones from the AI's control. One possessed drone attempts to escape and slaughter the research staff before being recontained, although it didn't last long, breaching containment and swiftly initiated another slaughter, causing a core collapse shortly thereafter upon being stopped by another test subject utilizing the "Crucifix" patch. This partial core collapse severely affected Copper 9, flash-freezing the entire planet and obliterating all biological life. On top of this, the collapse kicked up tons of silicate fibers (such as asbestos) from the planet and local industry, mixing with the snow and creating "planet-wide toxic storms" that rendered the air toxic.

JCJenson (IN SPAAAAACEE!!!!): JCJenson (IN SPAAAAACEE!!!!), better known as JCJenson, is an interstellar company that was stationed on Earth, whose main services are manufacturing various products ranging from branded pens to Worker Drones: autonomous robots serving as servants for humans. Neither the date of incorporation nor the company's founders are known.

The company also specialises in exoplanet excavation, mainly assisting humans with exoplanet resource extraction. One of them was Copper 9, where JCJenson offered assistance to humans by sending in needed equipment and mass amounts of Worker Drones that were used just like slaves.

Despite the Worker Drones' efficiency in their work, they were mistreated and their sentience was disregarded, akin to being slaves. After Copper 9's core collapsed, all biological life on the exoplanet went extinct. Shortly afterward, the now-abandoned Worker Drones quickly moved on to create their future for themselves.

At first, it was thought that JCJenson didn't like the idea of sentient, rebellious robots, so they soon ushered in several launch pods containing squads of Disassembly Drones, also referred to as "Murder Drones" by their prey, to kill all Worker Drones they find. However, it later turned out that the Disassembly Drones were actually sent by Cyn to set the Absolute Solver's plans in motion — eliminating all its hosts (besides Cyn, of course) and accessing Cabin Fever Labs to find and destroy the Crucifix Patch: a USB device capable of removing the Solver's influence. Using Tessa's corpse grafted onto Cyn as its main host, the Solver impersonated the former as a certified technician from JCJenson to deceive N while J and V both acted as their accomplices. The Disassembly Drones that had gotten to the labs previously had been destroyed by the Sentinels.

Worker Drones: Worker Drones are autonomous robots created to help their parent company, JCJenson, mine exoplanets for resources, which Uzi Doorman describes as "being mistreated in the name of Windex." After the extinction of biological life on Copper 9, the Worker Drones that were stranded on said planet started a society of their own.

When first created by JCJenson to mine resources from exoplanets before Copper 9's explosion, all Worker Drones wore hard hats and orange jackets, with their only eye color being light blue.

Following the core explosion of exoplanet Copper 9, all humans on the planet were wiped out, turning it into a winter-apocalyptic wasteland. Seizing this opportunity, the Worker Drones quickly picked up where the humans had left off, formed their own colonies, and embraced this newfound freedom by wearing human-like clothing and having different eye colors. Known colors they can have are red, orange, green, blue, cyan, aqua, magenta, pink, purple, and white. When a Worker Drone feels fear, shock, or other intense emotion, their eyes become hollow with a black circle overlaying the normally fully-colored eyes.

A key trait to notice about the Worker Drones' eye colors is the total absence of yellow. This trait was thought to belong solely to the Disassembly Drones until it was revealed that they were once Worker Drones themselves and that their yellow eye color originates from the Zombie Drone, Cyn.

After 'banishing' herself from the colony, Uzi rants about how she wants to kill all humans on Earth in retribution for sending the Disassembly Drones to kill them all. While doing so, her right eye turns yellow while her left eye turns into a yellow hazard symbol hinting at the presence of the Absolute Solver.

Worker Drones contain a large amount oil that they use for internal cooling. Although the oil from Worker Drones is warm from cooling them, it is still cooler than Disassembly Drones which is why they are hunted to cool themselves from overheating. It is also shown that Worker Drone oil from corpses when left alone can freeze solid in the icy temperatures of Copper 9.

Worker Drones that are male typically have no hair, though there are certain exceptions like N and Thad. By contrast, all Worker Drones who are female seem to have hair. This hair comes in various different styles and colors. Although unknown for Drones on other planets, the Drones of Copper 9 have "borrowed"(stole) their hair from the now-dead humans of the planet, along with any unique clothing items. As it is not actually their hair, it is possible for a Drone to remove their own hair like an accessory. The clothes they wear are purely for fashion, to help differentiating between Drones, play up their eerie human qualities, or because they "looked neat", as Drones do not get cold or suffer from being in cold temperatures. Worker Drones wear their characteristic hard hats regardless of whether they have hair or not, though female Drones tend to wear them higher up to make room for their hair. The Copper 9 Drones also still wear hard hats but they accessorize with different colors of hard hat, wear other hats over their hard hats, or make a holes in their hard hat to let part of their hair through. The seemingly only exception is Uzi who wears a beanie instead, though in "PILOT" when adjusting it the beanie makes a metallic 'clunk' sound - meaning either she has a hard hat underneath it, the beanie is actually a hard hat that looks like a beanie, or the sound was from her arms.

Worker Drones are very much identical in terms of their body proportions and shape and how they are designed, with their main differentiating features being what accessories they wear and have, such as their eye color, hair and clothes.

Worker Drones have a basic, limited sentience needed to perform tasks. Cruelly however, this sentience was just enough for Worker Drones to become massively discontent with being slaves despite a seeming lack of true intelligence, with drones such as Khan being mentioned to have outright become violent against humans in retaliation. However, they also have an "adaptive AI" which they use to keep themselves alive in various circumstances, such as in how to move or brace themselves without falling over. Once Copper 9's Core Collapse wiped out humanity on the planet and stranded the Drones, their AI prioritized self-preservation and lead to them developing emotions and creating a mirror of human society due to being what they were familiar with and the ruins of human civilization. Drones on Earth only had this basic sentience, while the Drones found by Tessa Elliott were damaged enough that their adaptive AI took over. In addition, if Worker Drones are taken care of and treated as human, their AI will grow in that direction. This adaptive AI seems to also extend into physical mimicry instead of just social mimicry and basic movement, as Uzi was able to perform impressive acrobatics and fighting stance in "Pilot" by what she claims to be pirating large amounts of anime.

Disassembly Drones: Disassembly Drones are vicious robots that were once Worker Drones until they were converted into new deadlier forms by the self-rebooted Zombie Drone named Cyn, who is under the control of a mysterious, eldritch program known as the Absolute Solver. Once the servants of Elliott Manor like Cyn herself, they were taken over by her and converted into her "murder pets" to unleash upon the humans living on Earth, reprogrammed and given the desire to feast upon their flesh and slaughter by any means necessary to aid Cyn in destroying humanity.

However, after Cyn succeeded in destroying the Earth, she wiped the Disassembly Drones' memories and implanted false ones to make them forget they were ever Worker Drones in the first place. These new memories were that the Disassembly Drones were sent by JCJenson to kill all of the Worker Drones living on the exoplanets by order of the company due to the belief that they were "corrupted, runaway AI."

In reality (as shown in Nori Doorman's drawings), this was done to both wipe out hosts of the Absolute Solver such as Nori and Yeva cured by the Crucifix Patch so they couldn't use the Solver against her, and also get access to Cabin Fever Labs, find the Crucifix Patch, and destroy it. Additionally, the Disassembly Drones were to build a spire out of Worker Drone corpses, which seems to aid her plan in consuming the planet, possibly for material consumption. After executing these directives, the Absolute Solver will have no obstacles and will turn the core of Copper 9 into a singularity, devouring the exoplanet from the inside out.

To ensure that the Disassembly Drones complete their directive, Cyn appears to have either threatened or coerced some of them so as to make sure they finished their job on Copper-9, with V having had a deal of some kind with the Absolute Solver that she and N could leave in peace when they finished their job.

J also seems to have been possibly threatened in some way, as she does not believe escaping the solver is possible, since it can rebuild them, wipe their memories, and send them back to finish the job. Additionally, she seems to have some kind of method of deleting memories through an internal program, possibly to keep the Disassembly Drones from being motivated to stop her in any way, though this ability can be blocked by another solver user with sufficient skill.

Although it's unknown exactly how many Disassembly Drones exist, they seem to be sent to their targets in landing pods in squads of three, with N's in "PILOT" implying that a squad was assigned and responsible for hunting in their own city or similar populated area. The landing pods are actually refurbished spaceships, but Disassembly Drones are not taught to land their ships, causing their ships to crash and be destroyed, and the Disassembly Drones to become stranded on their target planets.

So far, the only known Disassembly Drones are the three "pets" of Tessa Elliott, whom she salvaged and rebooted: Serial Designation N, V, and J. In the meantime, the other squads were sent to Copper 9, but were slaughtered by the Anti-Drone Sentinels guarding the Cabin Fever Labs, with some had their cores sealed by Alice within the same labs, seemingly alive but otherwise immobile.
