Chapter Text

• Murder Drones takes place in a universe pretty much Identical to ours, same event order and stuff up to probably around 2024, after that it starts changing. Then we get to when they start development on Drones
  • The first model comes out in 2031, (Yeah, it takes that long) and by then Humans live a in a stereotypical futuristic world in some places, and olden dystopian type places in others.
  • Stuff like illnesses, global warming, ex. have been delt with. They just kind of don’t exist.
• Murder Drones itself takes place in 2061, way later on in the timeline.
• Drones all have different models with minor differences. Early on drones are made with just one type of model, think of the worker drones we see but a lot taller, way less expressive, and instead of the white metal the older ones were made of steel.
  • They made them with different materials and shorter to save on resources and cut costs, while the personality change was because people would feel bad when they had less personalities.
    • Drones made by the company were given some basic preset personality randomly. (Cheery, Quiet, Energetic, calm, and stubborn)
  • Stubborn drones however were discontinued due to complaints about them talking back and stuff.
    • They are probably super expensive, and people would want to buy them like collectors and illegal drone smugglers (Yes those exist)
  • The drones we see in the show stopped having these personalities a while ago, their AI learning program would cause their personalities to become a lot more varied.
  • When their parents upload their code to pill baby drones they would create a hybrid drone personality.
    • All drones in Uzi’s colony and the other ones would be hybrids.
  • New drones also had different types of jobs. These were Servant drones, housekeeper drones, entertainer drones, and labor drones.
    • Servant drones were taller than other drones and were more flexible because they would be moving around a lot, housekeeper drones were smaller because they were made to be not seen, however they have stretchy arms, entertainer drones had a certain learning algorithm that would let them be able to learn certain talents faster, (an instrument, act, song, juggling, ex) And labor drones had more stamina were sturdier. They also have those hard hats we see the drones wearing in the show.
      • Lizzy, Thad, and Khan are labor drones, J and N were Servant drones, and V was a housekeeper drone. Yeva, Nori, Doll, and Uzi are all hybrids (entertainer – labor hybrid), and Cyn is also a hybrid.
    • Cyn was an experiment drone; I’ll go more into it in her chapter.
    • The Cyn we see in the show is NOT the real one. Identity theft folks, identity theft.
    • The Absolute Solver is sentient; I’ll also go more into this in their chapter.
    • There are other colonies on Copper-9 aside from the one we see, the reason that Copper-9 got attacked was because of Nori, who was the solvers first official host.
      • The other colonies actually think the one we see is insane. What do you mean by hiding behind three sets of doors instead of living your best life without humans? What disassembly drones?? They’re vampire type drones that are trying to drink your oil/blood??? Nah that’s crazy.
      • This is means they have less supplies than other colonies, these guys are living on a prayer.
