Copper is the third friend Mordred has ever made in his life. After crash landing on Pewter Moon, Copper was the first one to find him. He let him into his home, nursed him back to health, and convinced the other Moonites to help create prosthetics to keep Mordred alive. Copper taught Mordred about other planets, and Mordred improved their technology.Ā
Copper had always suspected that Mordred and Binary Bard were one in the same. He feels guilty that he indirectly caused all that genocide and destruction⦠should've left him to die.
The Moonites are all named after metals and minerals, since āpewterā is a metal.
Mordred uses he/they pronouns, and helped Copper realize he is transgender, since the Moonites weren't familiar with the concept. This is why Copper has eyelashes even though he's referred to as male in the book, and only the female characters in Poptropica have eyelashes.Ā
Copper is the same Moonite who greets Simon and Alice when they crash on Pewter Moon. In the book he just gives them a friendly greeting and then pisses off. Let's not make the same mistake you made 20 years ago, Copper.
