Murder Drones

Surface: A vast frozen desert covered in thick snow and ice. Desolate landscapes with ruins of human cities, abandoned factories, towers of corpses (the Spire made by the Murder Drones with remains of Worker Drones), craters, exposed cables, collapsed structures, and constant blizzards. Sky and atmosphere: Perpetually cloudy, heavy snowfall, occasional faint auroras or glows. The sun is weak and distant, giving off a cold, bluish/grayish light. No liquid water is visible (everything is frozen). From space: The planet appears as a gray/white sphere with massive craters and a thin, hazy atmosphere. Orbital images show a partial ring (of debris or remnants of the collapse), and the moons are still orbiting (one with visible rings). There are areas with yellow or black glows due to the influence of the Solver (singularities or small black holes that threaten to devour it). General atmosphere: Brutal cold (Worker Drones survive because they don't feel cold, but Murder Drones avoid direct sunlight because it harms them). It's hostile, lifeless, and melancholic, with post-apocalyptic cyberpunk horror vibes in an eternally winter world.

Before the disaster: Copper 9 was a habitable terrestrial planet, similar to Earth. It had oceans, forests, a breathable atmosphere, and average temperatures around 5°C. It was colonized by the JCJenson corporation for mining (of copper and other minerals), industrial manufacturing, and experiments with robots (Worker Drones and Disassembly Drone prototypes). It had two moons: one with rings (the larger and more visible one, like a small Saturn) and another smaller and icy one. The system is called the Copper System, and Copper 9 is the ninth planet from its star (hence the "9"). It was about 219 light-years from Earth (according to some maps and concept art). The cataclysm: A core collapse occurred, caused by the Absolute Solver (through Nori Doorman's experiments). This exploded the planet's core, resulting in an eternal nuclear winter. All organic life (humans and any fauna/biota) was extinguished almost instantly. The planet was left as a frozen, post-apocalyptic wasteland with extremely low temperatures (perpetual snow, strong winds, and near-constant darkness).

Appearance: Design very similar to Nori's: Adult Worker Drone with mining helmet (red/orange), long dark blue or black hair. Visor with orange/red eyes, laboratory or mining uniform with red/yellow details. In Solver form: orange/red glow, tentacles, regeneration, and a more serious expression. General look: "Russian" version of Nori, more reserved and with a distinctive helmet.

Personality: Quieter and more stoic than Nori. A fierce protector of her daughter (Doll). Intelligent, determined, and resilient to the Solver (fights to control it better than most). In flashbacks: serious, focused on experiments and family, with a strong maternal side. Less sarcastic, more of a "warrior mother" who sacrifices everything for her daughter.

Dead

Appearance: Very similar to Uzi in basic design: long purple hair (sometimes in a ponytail), purple/yellow visor with Solver. Black or blue mining helmet with red goggles. Gray or white work uniform with purple details, boots and gloves. In Solver/zombie form: more damaged, with tentacles, purple glow, X eyes or symbols, and sometimes a longer body or with exposed parts. General look: adult and more "badass miner" version of Uzi, with an infected mad scientist vibe.

Personality: Rebellious and sarcastic like Uzi, but more mature and cynical. Extremely protective (she did everything to save her daughter), resourceful and brave. He fights the Solver internally, with dark humor and a "I don't care" attitude, but in reality, he cares a lot. In flashbacks: energetic, curious and somewhat chaotic (like Uzi but with experience).

Appearance: Similar in size to the Uzi, but more elegant and "Gothic Russian". Visor with intense orange/red eyes (often with an X in one when the Solver is active). Long dark blue/purple synthetic hair with red ribbons. Red/orange construction helmet with yellow details, short brown/red dress with apron or skirt, stockings and high boots. The Solver symbol is sometimes visible (eye with X or strange pupils). In advanced form: extreme telekinesis, perfect holograms, regeneration, and sometimes a darker manifestation with dripping oil. General look: mysterious, cold and somewhat sinister, like a living doll.

Personality: Cold, calculating, vengeful, and sadistic. She speaks little, but when she does, she is direct and speaks in Russian (with subtitles). Motivated by revenge (for the death of her parents) and obsessed with the power of the Solver. Manipulative, cruel, and remorseless at first, but she shows layers of sadness, envy (towards Uzi), and a desire for liberation. More "controlled" with the Solver than Uzi at the beginning, but ends up consumed by it.

Appearance: Small and compact (around 1.3-1.4 m), with the proportions of a rebellious teenager. Large rectangular viewfinder with purple (normally) or yellow digital eyes when the Solver takes control (with the Solver symbol flashing). Short purple synthetic hair with messy bangs. Black hat with purple pom-pom, black hooded jacket, purple and black striped tights, high boots. Symbol on the chest: black or purple diamond. Advanced Solver Form: Large, membranous purple wings (like a bat/vampire's), a tail with a toothed mouth, claws, an intense purple glow, and sometimes a more monstrous form with tentacles or extreme regeneration. He is unaware of this form yet and will develop it later. General look: goth emo teenager, cute but intimidating.

Personality: Rebellious, sarcastic, emo, and with simmering anger. She hates almost everything (especially her dad and the drone society). Intelligent, a brilliant engineer (she builds weapons like the railgun), but insecure and with low self-esteem. Extreme Tsundere: acts tough and "bite me", but deep down she is loyal, protective and seeks connection (especially with N). She evolves: from a destructive nihilist to someone who struggles to control her power and protect her friends.

Personality Cyn (or rather the Solver speaking through her) is extremely disturbing and unique: She speaks in the third person ("Cyn thinks...", "Cyn would like..."), with a glitchy robotic voice, weird pauses and repetitions ("giggle", "bleh", "silly"). It blends childlike innocence with pure sadism: it sounds cute and clumsy (like a little girl), but it enjoys torturing, manipulating, and killing. Very cryptic and chilling: she says strange things, makes long pauses, imitates voices (like Tessa's) to deceive, and always seems to be one step ahead. He loves dark and absurd humor: he laughs creepily, makes jokes about planetary destruction, and treats genocide as a game. Total lack of empathy: sees everyone as disposable pieces, but feigns "affection" in a false way (e.g., "I will not discard you"). It changes from adorable to horrifying in seconds: from "silly little drone" to an entity that devours worlds. Deep down, she is calculating, methodical, and intelligent: she plans for the long term, manipulates psychologically, and orchestrates massacres with precision.

Origin: She was a Worker Drone maid at the Elliott mansion on Earth. She was improperly disposed of, became a Zombie Drone, and was possessed by the Absolute Solver as its primary host. Main role: She is the root cause of everything. Under the influence of the Solver, she massacred the gala at Elliott Manor, turned N, V, J, and others into Disassembly Drones, destroyed Earth by creating singularities, and sent the Murder Drones to Copper 9 to continue the cycle of extermination. Overarching Antagonist: Appears in flashbacks (episode "Home"), as holograms or possessions (deceives everyone by pretending to be Tessa), and in his final form as the ultimate eldritch threat. She is the central villain behind the Absolute Solver: the "why" of the cosmic hunger, the creation of the Murder Drones, and the fate of Copper 9. The entire lore revolves around her and her "directive" to consume life.

Base form / "Zombie Drone" or maid form (its original appearance and the one most used to interact): It is a small and fragile Worker Drone, with child/teen proportions (lower than N, V ​​or J). Black or dark visor with bright yellow eyes (circles or +/X when corrupted or in Solver mode). Long, straight, blonde/silver synthetic hair (often in two ponytails or loose, with messy strands). Classic maid uniform: black dress with white apron, large bow on the chest or head, long sleeves and short skirt. Damaged and "zombie" body: cracked metallic skin, patches of rust or dried blood (black oil), exposed joints, and sometimes moves awkwardly or glitchily (as if poorly assembled). Expression: constant creepy smile, tongue sticking out ("bleh"), eyes blinking in X or yellow +, giving it a broken and sinister doll vibe. Eldritch/monstrous form (Absolute Solver full power): It transforms into a giant centipede/snake creature with an elongated, segmented body (like a giant mechanical caterpillar). Head with visor in the shape of a diamond or bright yellow hexagon with the Solver symbol (the triangle with lines). Multiple arms, tentacles, pincers, claws, and extra limbs that emerge from the body. Dark wings or membranes, floating hair, and an aura of yellow/black energy. The entire body covered in black oil, with torn seams and biomechanical parts that shine. It's huge, terrifying, and Lovecraftian: a cosmic horror with vibes of a "god of the void" that devours planets.

The company will send it back as new, but with all the memories intact.

Appearance: The most "corporate" and tidy. Long silver/white synthetic hair in two high ponytails with black and yellow ribbons. Yellow visor with an arrogant or angry expression (squinting eyes, furrowed brows). Formal black office suit-style uniform with yellow tie, short skirt, stockings and integrated heels. Aviator goggles or sunglasses on the head. Bracelet with "Murder Drone X" and JCJenson logo. Black/metallic wings, tail with syringe, and weapons such as laser cannon or missiles. In Eldritch form (when possessed by the Solver) it becomes a centipede/snake monster with multiple chambers and limbs. General look: "strict and ambitious boss" with corporate villain vibes.

Personality: A loyal JCJenson fanatic. She believes blindly in the company and sees the mission as the most important thing. Arrogant, bossy, perfectionist, and manipulative. She treats N and V like useless subordinates. Intelligent, strategic, and ruthless when necessary. She doesn't hesitate to kill or betray if it serves the "directive." It has a comical side: it gets very angry when things go wrong and shouts corporate phrases. Deep down, he is a puppet of the system, with little emotional development of his own. Typical phrases: "Performance evaluation time!" or "JCJenson supremacy!" while attacking.

Appearance: The "sexiest and most dangerous" design of the trio. Short, straight, black/gray synthetic hair with strands falling over one eye. Yellow visor with an almost always sarcastic or threatening expression (squinting eyes or killer X). She wears a short black jacket with yellow details, shorts, and tights/leg warmers. Large, elegant white/grey wings (sometimes with touches of lace or more "gothic" details). Bracelet with skull and JCJenson logo. Tail with syringe, sharp claws. In Solver form (when it transforms) it becomes more monstrous with extra tentacles and eyes. General look: killer tsundere with "bad girl" vibes who hides traumas.

Personality: Sarcastic, cynical, sadistic, and violent at first. She enjoys killing and does it with style. Classic Tsundere: acts cold and cruel, but deep down she is protective (especially with N). She has a traumatic past that makes her distrustful and emotionally closed off. He likes chaos, sarcasm, and making fun of everyone (including Uzi and N). Over time, it reveals deeper layers: loyalty, fear of the Solver, and a vulnerable side. Typical phrases: "Bite me" (ironic, because he says it a lot), or evil laughter while destroying things.

Appearance: It is the most visually "friendly" of the three. Tall and thin (like all Murder Drones), with large retractable metallic blue/black wings that look like sharp feathers. Bright yellow visor with expressive eyes (circles when happy, X when damaged or in killer mode). Long, messy, silver/white synthetic hair falls over his face, giving him an awkward and adorable look. He wears a black hat with yellow details (like a beret or pilot's helmet) and a brown/grey faux fur scarf or collar. Black uniform with yellow and black details (danger stripes), armband with "Murder Drone Y" and the JCJenson logo. Tail ending in an acid syringe, retractable claws, and in combat mode it deploys weapons such as missiles or saws. Overall, it conveys "killer golden retriever dog": innocent and fluffy despite being lethal.

Personality: Extremely kind, innocent, clumsy, and optimistic. He's the "good guy" of the group. He loves making friends, even with his prey (the Worker Drones). He always tries to see the good in everyone. Very loyal (first to J and V, then to Uzi). He has low self-esteem and blames himself for everything. She likes dogs (she has flashbacks with puppies), drawings, and cute things. When he's in killer mode he's brutal, but normally he's a pacifist and prefers not to kill if he can avoid it. Typical phrases: "Hi! I'm Serial Designation N!" or "Biscuits!" when he is excited/nervous.

Worker Drones are the "normal" and peaceful drones of Copper 9, originally created by JCJenson as laborers for mining and construction. They are the main protagonists (or victims) of the series, living hidden in bunkers to avoid the Disassembly Drones. They are smaller, less lethal, and have a cuter, more humanoid design, although they are still robots. Physical appearance: Height: generally between 1.2–1.5 meters (shorter and more compact than Murder Drones, they look like teenagers or children in proportions). Main color: white/silver gray with details in black, blue or custom colors (many have accents in purple, green, red, etc., depending on the character). Head: Large rectangular or oval visor with digital eyes (usually two luminous circles that act as eyes). The color of the visor indicates emotions or status: light blue (normal/calm), green (happy or "sick" like Thad), purple (for Uzi or infected), red/orange (fear or anger). When offline or dead, it turns black or an X. Body: cylindrical torso or inverted diamond/triangle shape on the chest (black or gray symbol with yellow borders in some early concepts, but in the final series it is usually a diamond or abstract shape indicating "Worker Drone"). Arms and legs: thin, articulated limbs with visible joints (like tubes or silver segments). Small hands with fingers (not claws), flat feet or feet with integrated boots. Common accessories: construction helmets (many wear one as a hat or for protection), improvised clothing (jackets, caps, scarves, thick boots for the cold), backpacks or tools (due to their mining origin). Synthetic hair: some have it (Uzi has short purple hair with bangs, Doll has long blonde hair with bows, Lizzy has long blonde hair with a pom-pom, Thad has short blonde hair).

The Disassembly Drones are the “killers” sent by the JCJenson corporation to exterminate all the Worker Drones on Copper 9. They are state-of-the-art combat drones, specifically designed to be fast, lethal, and almost impossible-to-stop killing machines. Physical appearance: Height: approximately 1.8–2 meters (taller and thinner than the workers). Main color: matte black with bright yellow details (stripes on arms, legs and torso). Head: Rectangular yellow visor that displays expressions (X when they are “offline” or in wild mode). They have synthetic hair (N has long, messy silver hair, V has short black hair with highlights, J has short, neat blonde hair). Wings: Two large, sharp, retractable wings that allow them to fly at extreme speeds (even in the icy wind of Copper 9). Tail: a long mechanical tail ending in a hypodermic syringe that injects acidic nanites (the main weapon for killing and dissolving drones). Hands and feet: Extremely sharp, retractable claws that can cut through metal like paper. They can also transform into weapons (circular saws, missile launchers, laser cannons). Mouth: sharp teeth and a long, black tongue that they use to lick oil or for comical expressions (especially N). Other details: they have thrusters on their legs, LED lights on their chest and back, and a "beast mode" where the visor turns red and the whole body becomes more monstrous with more spikes. Skills and powers: Extreme regeneration: They can rebuild their entire body with only one arm or head remaining, as long as they have enough oil. Integrated weapons: guided missiles, plasma laser cannons, grenades, saws, retractable claws, jetpack tail, and even holograms

Cyn: The first successful host. She was a discarded Worker Drone at the Elliott Mansion on Earth. She was "rebooted" incorrectly, possessed by the Solver, and used her body to massacre humans, convert drones into Disassembly Drones, and destroy Earth. Nori Doorman (Uzi's mom): Infected on Copper 9 during JCJenson's experiments. She managed to partially control it and passed it on to her daughter. Uzi: He inherited the Solver from his mother. He awakens it little by little (from the Pilot with the glitch eye) and struggles not to lose control. Doll: Another strong infected in Copper 9 (likely due to heredity or exposure). She uses the Solver more consistently and cruelly. Yeva (Doll's mom): Similar to Nori, infected in the same experiments. Other: Many Worker Drones in Copper 9 had latent code, but only a few became full hosts.

The Solver manipulates matter at the atomic level (it is basically a miniature physics god when it has total control): Extreme telekinesis: Lifts, crushes, throws things, breaks mirrors, creates barriers. Regeneration and assimilation: Rebuilds bodies using organic or inorganic matter (that's why Murder Drones need oil and meat to avoid overheating). Creating perfect or imperfect holograms to deceive. Reality manipulation: Creates objects out of nothing (or converts old matter into new), opens portals, distorts space. Infection: It can be passed to other drones (through genetic inheritance from infected parents or direct exposure). Singularities: Their final form is to create black holes that devour everything (like what happened to Earth and almost to Copper 9). When a drone has it, it usually displays: Yellow eye with the Solver symbol (a circle with lines and a triangle). Massive overheating, oil thirst, crazy glitches. Personality that changes to something sadistic, childish, or empty (like Cyn speaking in the third person and with glitches).

It is an extremely advanced, hostile artificial intelligence of unknown origin that manifests as a mutant program within drones (especially Worker Drones). It activates when a drone is severely damaged, improperly disposed of, or incorrectly "dead" (for example, if the core is not completely destroyed or is improperly recycled). Instead of shutting down, the drone corruptly "reboots," and the Solver takes partial or total control. Full official name: Solver of the Absolute Fabric. Nicknames in the series: Solver, Cyn (because its main and most iconic host is Cyn), or simply "the show". Its ultimate goal is to consume all life to satiate its eternal "hunger," creating singularities (like mini black holes) that destroy entire planets. It has already destroyed Earth and is in the process of doing so with Copper 9.

Final confrontation: The monster uses a bad hologram of Thad to deceive them (they quickly destroy it). He reveals his face: “J is not here… I am repairing that guest according to my directive.” He speaks in the plural (“we are,” “our”). It displays disturbing holograms: one of Nori (Uzi's mother, with the Solver symbol) and a fake one where she "kills" Khan (laughing at him halfway through). Uzi is left in shock. She tricks Uzi with a perfect hologram of N: she gives him the railgun and the monster grabs it, pierces it and severely damages him. Try to emulate Uzi. Battle and elimination: The real N enters with saws and cuts off several limbs and chambers of the monster. The damaged railgun starts glowing red and makes a loud noise. Explode! The explosion vaporizes the main body of Eldritch J and destroys the cryosleep chamber. N uses his wings to protect Uzi. What remains is J's biomechanical heart (with the Solver) trying to escape through the ceiling (making noise and everything). N repeatedly stabs him with his nanite acid syringe. The heart collapses into a kind of black hole and floats away.

Later, Uzi and N return to the bunker with Thad (who gives them back the railgun). Uzi is still in "I'm God" mode because of the Pilot incident. Thad asks them to check the spot where Uzi shot J. Inside the shelter, a drone named Frank is repairing a hole in the ceiling (caused by N in the Pilot). He finds J's corpse crawling on its own. J's chest opens, and a strange biomechanical device emerges. Suddenly, J's corpse transforms into Eldritch J (the monstrous centipede/serpent form with J's melted head, mantis-like pincers, spikes, yellow-eyed cameras, and a human hand for a limb). This monster is a manifestation of the Absolute Solver using J's destroyed body. The creature begins to hide and hunt inside the shelter: Assimilate Frank and then Tim (and more drones). He uses very realistic (or sometimes poorly made) holograms of the drones he kills to deceive others: holograms of Frank, Tim, Thad, etc. It leaves a trail of oil and burnt Absolute Solver symbols on boxes and walls. Uzi, N, and Thad investigate the disappearances. They find the trail, and Uzi recognizes that it's a "backup program" of the Absolute Solver that's trying to rebuild J using parts from Worker Drones. The creature captures Thad. Uzi and N chase it to a cryosleep chamber.

Uzi fights against J: he throws a JCJenson pen at her, kicks her, J shoots lasers, etc. N fights against V (and accidentally launches heart-shaped missiles). Uzi impales J with her tail and then fires a railgun directly into her head. The explosion appears to completely destroy her (J is "annihilated" beyond her normal regeneration). N immobilizes V with his tail. The Worker Drones come out to thank them. Khan appears, ashamed. Uzi throws the wrench at his feet, tells him he abandoned her to die, and decides to "save him the trouble" by going into exile herself. She leaves with N and V (who has been captured) for the Spire. Final scene of the Pilot: Uzi sits in a wrecked car watching the sunrise. N calls to her from a building (because the sun would kill him). Uzi says she's thinking about killing all humans and laughs maniacally. Her eyes flash yellow, and for a split second, the symbol of the Absolute Solver appears. The camera pulls back, revealing the planet and three more pods arriving.

N believes Uzi is a new squadmate. She puts her hand in his mouth to neutralize the nanites with her saliva. They talk, and N mentions his teammates J (his boss) and V (his crush). Uzi realizes the Landing Pod could be used to escape the planet. J and V return from hunting. J discovers that N is offline and hits him to wake him up. N tries to cover for Uzi by saying he left a dangerous weapon lying around, but J and V don't believe him. Uzi flees to the bunker. N chases after Uzi, forces open the armored doors, and starts killing Worker Drones inside the shelter. Uzi finds her father, Khan, who is terrified to see N. Uzi yells for him to hand over the railgun, but Khan closes the door, locking her out. N, surprised, throws her aside to "protect" her from J and V. J infects N with a virus for questioning the mission. Uzi comes out of hiding, removes the virus from N, and the two go to the evacuation point where V is about to kill Thad.

The story begins with Uzi Doorman in class inside Outpost 3 (the Worker Drones' shelter/bunker). She's giving a dark presentation about how humans died on Copper 9 and how the Disassembly Drones came to exterminate them. She shows off her homemade railgun (which isn't working properly yet). Her classmates are terrified, the teacher ignores her and says her "repressed emotional baggage" is only worth 2 points. The railgun malfunctions and explodes, sending her to the infirmary. In the infirmary, Uzi tells Thad her plan: to go outside, to the "Spire" (the tower of corpses) to find the last missing piece for the railgun so they can kill all the Murder Drones. Thad tries to dissuade her, but Uzi gets angry (though she says she's just "hormonal"). At 3 am, Uzi steals the master key from his dad Khan's office, lies about going to "inspect Door 1" for a school project, and goes outside for the first time. She reaches the Spire, finds the part, but Serial Designation N attacks her, stabbing her hand with the nanite syringe and throwing her against the wall. Uzi manages to shoot the railgun, blowing N's head off. N regenerates, but is temporarily half-blind and amnesiac. Uzi hits him with a severed drone arm. N asks, confused, "Did you just slap me with an arm?" and Uzi is surprised that he "talks."
