Wylde Labs, also known as Doctor Wylde's Laboratory, is the home of the Wylde family and a top secret facility hidden in the mountains. It's actually built into the mountains themselves, with much of the laboratory located underground.
The laboratory is heavily guarded on all sides by thick stone walls and powerful defensive batteries, ranging from sniper nests to anti-air missile launchers, not to mention the countless automatons constantly patrolling the grounds. The interior is also guarded with automatons patrolling the halls and various turrets hidden in the ceiling. The paths to and from the laboratory are extremely easy to miss if you don't know what you're looking for, and to even enter the place without being captured or killed you need permission, proof of permission, and ideally an appointed guide who's already familiar with the area and trusted by the guards. This guide is usually either one of the staff or a member of the Wylde family.
Anyone and everyone who enters the facility must first swear an oath of secrecy that what they see and do in the facility (pertaining to the work done in the lower levels) stays in the facility. Because of this, it's unclear what exactly they do in there. Some say the lab researches the various life forms, commonly referred to as "monsters," that have survived and adapted to Copper 9's eternal winter and poisonous atmosphere. Others say they build weapons and put them up for auction on the black market. No one knows for certain, though.
The mountain range that houses and hides the laboratory is an hour's drive north of the old city near Outpost 3.
Well, hello hello hello, all you beautiful people! I am Mod Andy, but you can call me Mod for short and to get my attention instead of the character Andy. The other way to get my attention is to simply go out of character.
This is my Murder Drones roleplay account. I will be using my Cosmic Indifference AU in this RP, which you can find the lore for over on @wylde-lore. If you wanna catch me fully OOC you can find me on my main blog, @how-and-why-do-i-know-this.
Now when it comes to RPing with me, I got a few rules to keep in mind:
Crossovers of all kinds are welcome.
This one isn't a rule so much as it is a heads-up: Though I focus primarily on Murder Drones and use Murder Drones characters and OCs, this blog is technically multi-fandom and I do have characters here that aren't of that universe.
No explicit NSFW, though suggestive jokes and a fade to black/off-Tumblr approach to smexy times are ok.
Asks that make me uncomfortable or are explicitly NSFW will be deleted.
Bigotry of any kind will not be tolerated.
Please respect my boundaries.
If I do anything that crosses your boundaries or makes you uncomfortable, I highly advise that you tell me so I can fix it.
Don't worry about leaving me hanging. I am very patient, most of the time.
Don't try to control my characters (godmodding) or twist my arm into doing what you want, it won't work on them and I'll either do the complete opposite or drop the rp thread completely.
Now personally I think this last one is a no-brainer and shouldn't need to be spelled out, but since it's actually happened to me on several occasions I'll list it here: Please do not tamper with my lore or try to insert your own characters into it without permission.
And that should be everything! A list of my muses (characters I rp as) and their attached character sheets are below the cut.
Doctor Wylde:
Name: Cedric Arlo Wylde
Alias/titles: Aldia Entrati (deadname), big guy, old fart, Doc, Doctor, The Good Doctor, General, Master, Enlighten
Disclamer: All character sheets under this line are either severely outdated or haven't been written yet.
Natah: Dr. Wylde's mother. Moved into the lab after Earth's destruction. The sweetest old lady you will ever meet. Fantastic cook. Accent of unknown origin.
(translation: Dr. Wylde's split-personality - think Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but way worse. Where Dr. Wylde is kind, collected, and diplomatic, Janus is sadistic, crazed, and violent. Born when @theblackcubeofdarkness Smiles drove Dr. Wylde insane - albeit temporarily. Dr. Wylde is aware of Janus' existence, and tries to keep him away from everyone else as much as he can for their safety. However, Janus can be coaxed out to "play" if Dr. Wylde's mental state deteriorates enough. Australian accent. Found primarily on @dr-wylde-and-janus. His full character sheet can also be found there (WIP).)
Emma Eclipse Wylde: Demigoddess. Daughter of Dr. Wylde and @xen-or-xavier-wylde. A psychopath like her father. As bubbly as she is violent. Too young to have her own blog (and I have enough as it is), so she's going in this one. Australian accent.
Odin: Hex-tech android and Dr. Wylde's assistant. Much too busy for romance. Accent-less robot voice.
Belnar Runehide: 𝕎𝕀ℙ
Kieran: WIP
Slyvan: Dr. Wylde's pet serpent. A-tier monster. Loves boops, pets, rubs, and cuddles. Hates being called stinky or spaghetti. Very motherly. Sssnake accent.
Rodney: WIP
Alice: WIP
Serial Designation J: WIP
Evelyn Wylde: Demihuman. Dr. Wylde's granddaughter. Bisexual murder-happy tomboy. Powerful pyromancer. Has a phoenix familiar named Sol. Dating @doll-the-zombie-drone Australian accent. Found primarily in @evelyn-wylde. Her full character sheet can also be found there in the pinned post.
Beeftongue: WIP
Lucy: WIP
Oswald Universe Wylde: Disassembly Drone. Son of Dr. Wylde and @emily-and-friends R. Obsessed with Scotland. Much less murdery than his sister Emma, and the voice of reason between the two of them. Too young to have his own blog (and I have enough as it is), so he's going in this one. Scottish accent.
Andy: WIP
Sarah: WIP
Hilda: WIP
Delilah: 𝕎𝕀ℙ
Lily: WIP
Kelsey: ᴡɪᴘ
Cephalon Eda: աɨք
Cyn: Surprisingly, @solvar-the-drone was only at stage four at the time of her "fight" against The Abhorrent. After removing her AI core, Dr. Wylde was able to isolate and extract the real Cyn. Having been purged of the Absolute Solver and given both a new body and a second chance, she now spends her time working tirelessly to undue the damage she's caused and atone for the atrocities she committed as the AS' host. Despises the AS for ruining her life and using her body to turn her friends and family into "monsters". Believes herself to also be a monster for what she's done, despite not having been in control of her actions. Iconic Solver voice, though it now has some emotion to it. When she is overcome with emotion (crying, pissed off, etc.), her voice goes back to the way it was pre-corruption.
Sol: WIP
Elizabeth: Formerly a human, now a Worker Drone. She was murdered by @james-comes-back's friend Simon, but thankfully her consciousness was successfully transferred to a Drone body - specifically one that looks exactly like Lizzy. Dr. Wylde's secretary, the lab's receptionist, and the one who runs the blog. A bit of a workaholic, and in love with @emily-r-and-eva Eva. Calls everyone "love." British accent.
Lizzy: WIP
Asmodeus: Ancient vampire, and Infernal Legion deserter. He and Dr. Wylde met during the Fell War, and have been friends ever since. Greater monster. A caretaker of sorts for the experiments. Romanian accent.
Disclaimer: This character sheet is outdated and will be edited soon.
Evelyn Elise Wylde - yes her initials are EEW - is a fourteen year old demihuman, and granddaughter of the famous Orokin scientist Doctor Cedric Wylde - though their relationship is one of father and daughter so they refer to each other as such. She identifies as bisexual and her pronouns are she/her.
Evelyn is 5 feet 6 six inches (66 inches) in height and is usually seen wearing cleated snow shoes, jeans, winter snow pants, a long sleeve shirt, a jacket that she's "borrowing" from her girlfriend, @doll-the-zombie-drone, and a magic talisman from her late mother that protects her from harm. She has elven ears, a round face, soft lips, tanned skin, freckles, a button nose, piercing sapphire-blue eyes with slitted pupils, braided shoulder-length silver hair with purple, blue, and light green highlights, fangs, sharp claws for nails, well toned muscles, and an Australian accent. However, her most notable features are her molted green prehensile lizard tail, the tip of which boasts a razor-sharp blade, a pair of bat wings she keeps hidden under her jacket when she's not using them, and - though she'd almost always hiding it - a vivisection scar on her chest. Unless you want to be punched in the face at full force, it would be wise to not touch it.
Depending on who she's talking to, her personality varies wildly. Thanks to her childhood she has trust issues and is slow to warm up to people. Of course, once she does she goes from cold and distant to a lovable goofball cinnamon roll who loves to snuggle. She is also capable of purring and adores physical affection - that being said, don't touch her tail without permission, as it's extremely sensitive. She is surprisingly touch-starved and as a result physical affection has become her love language. She also adores praise, and especially likes being called a "good girl." The one thing that remains constant throughout the two sides of her personality is that she's a massive tomboy and ready for a fight at any time, including when she's asleep. The girl keeps a hatchet under her pillow for Void's sake. She is also autistic - high functioning - and has a hard time telling whether or not someone's being sarcastic, subtly making fun of her, or being genuine. She's also also insecure, has abandonment issues, hates loud noises, and is terrified of driving her loved ones away.
After learning the truth of the Absolute Solver in episode six, Evie has developed a strong phobia of Solver-infected Drones and the AS itself.
Thanks to Evie's great great grandfather, who's name has been stricken from history, she and her entire bloodline are effectively immortal and while they can be killed, they will eventually come back to life. Preventative measures can be taken to slow the self-resurrection process, but it cannot be stopped. The family also has supernatural powers, with Evie specializing in Pyromancy, or fire magic. She also also has a familiar - a phoenix she named Sol. She is very protective of Sol and will deck you without hesitation if you hurt her bird.
In terms of combat, her options are surprisingly varied. Not only does she have the aforementioned fire magic, but she is also incredibly strong, a black belt in jujitsu, carries multiple knives on her person at all times, and has a substantial collection of weapons that she can pull from and summon into her hands at will. She is also one of exactly three people who wields the Delta Solver - a variant of the Absolute Solver created by her grandfather. The Delta Solver is much less powerful than the AS, but more versatile, not sentient, lacks the biological aspect, and can only be given to others by an Admin.
As an added bonus she is capable of turning into a Disassembly Drone with blue lights instead of yellow, though she usually only uses this form to fluster her girlfriend.

Main Blog: @how-and-why-do-i-know-this
The Vivisection Incident (how she got the scar):
First, some context. Grandpa and James were friends back then, colleagues to be more specific. I was only five years old.
James knew about
Let's start things off by taking a step back. We are stuck in a hole beneath the ice and stone. It's boring here. Let's see the sights this planet has to offer.
...Hmm, strange. Did Uzi and her crew get smaller? Well, it's probably nothing to worry about.
Let's take another step back. Copper 9 implies that it's the 9th planet in this system. What are the others like? Do they have Drones? Are they plagued by Disassembly Drones and Solver infections?
Ok, the main cast is definitely smaller now. As if they're... becoming insignificant the farther back we go. But we can't stop now.
Another step back. The Copper system is but a singular solar system among untold trillions, and each and every one has its own stories. The traumas our favorite Drones face are so small from up here.
But what if we went even further? Now we are among not just the universe, but the multiverse. What manner of cosmic beings - gods, even - are out here? How do they perceive the Solver? Is it a great threat to them? Or is it a mere blip in the grand scheme of things? Uzi, N, V, J, Tessa, Khan, Nori, Yeva, Cyn, they are all mere specks of dust from up here, floating adrift in an unfeeling and uncaring universe. And, when you think about it, that's what they are; clumps of cosmic stardust created and given sentience by other dust clumps.
This world is indifferent to the plights of mortals. The gods do not care for the Drones, if they even know they're there. They are wrapped up in grander things. But what are these grander things? By studying the multiverse and the cosmic beings that govern its rules, what can we learn?
What happens when we embrace the Eldritch Truth?
Hihihi! <3 I hope you liked my little intro.
I'm Mod Andy (no that is not my real name) and I've created this blog to share an AU of mine - one that focuses less on the local setting of the show and more on the greater universe that it lives in.
I got a LOT of special interests and my silly little Autism brain won't let me make this AU without cross-contaminating the AU with other stuff that fascinate me, so watch out for stuff like crossovers with other things I like, magic, modern fantasy in general, body horror, lovecraftian horror, eldritch horror, cosmic horror, and good old fashioned existentialism.
In case you can't tell I REALLY like horror. If that's not your cup of tea, I can respect that. I also recommend you start running as far away from me as you can, and as fast as you can.
Now, because I'm not a monster, probably, I will tag my post with the necessary trigger warnings if needed. If I missed a warning on a post, please don't be afraid to let me know.
Oh, and one more thing before I let you go! You can actually find this AU alive and active over on my RP blog, @ask-wylde-and-co. There's also @storytime-with-dr-wylde if you want lore in a story format, and for ooc stuff you can check out my main, @how-and-why-do-i-know-this!
That should be everything for now. I'll see you all later in your nightmares! <3
Additional Information: Experiment 06 are a race of anthropomorphic ants, created by Dr. Wylde to serve as elite guards. The giant stingers on their arms can cut through solid steel and are equipped with a potent toxin stronger than anything known to man.
There are a lot of Murder Drones AUs out there, and so I thought I might as well throw my own hat into the ring, but this one does things a little differently; Instead of focusing primarily on the local setting of the show, I've turned my eyes outward and intend to flesh out the greater universe.
Unfortunately, I have Silly Brain (an affectionate nickname I have for Autism Spectrum Disorder), and if there's one thing I love it's crossovers, magic, and horror - especially cosmic horror, so I recommend keeping that in mind.
DISCLAMER: Character sheet is outdated. A new one is in the works.
Wylde Family Lore!
Doctor Cedric A. Wylde
Looks (roughly) like this:
Hex-tech android
Mad scientist - specifically an arcanologist (arcanology is the scientific study of the arcane and supernatural) and biomechanical engineer
10,000 72 years old
Immortal
6'8 giant (I have a weakness for making my characters freakishly tall)
Stand User
Wields immense arcane power
Insane, but keeping himself together for his family's sake
Workaholic
Secretive
Polyamorous
Charismatic
Bleeder
Love language is physical affection
Licensed arms dealer. Currently under contract with the ASF - or Anonymous Special Forces
Takes commissions for individual clients
Australian accent
Janus
Split personality
An a$$hole, and he knows it
The only people he's not an a$$hole to are Wylde, Natah (Wylde's mother), @theblackcubeofdarkness, @xen-or-xavier-wylde, @director-raphael-turner, @emily-and-r, @love-lust-clown, and the kids
Calls Clown his "partner in crime"
Thinks Vine is both iconic and the pinnacle of comedy (he's right)
Polyamorous
Love language is brutal violence
Born when Smiles drove Wylde insane
Usually only comes out to play when Dr. Wylde's mental state has deteriorated to the point of breaking, but he is available to chat with at any time
Currently constrained to the mindscape and only able to interact with the material realm via controlling Wylde's body, though a physical body of his own is currently being constructed (hope y'all like biomechanical monsters)
Though just as powerful as Dr. Wylde, his complete lack of restraint, sadistic nature, and mental instability makes him far more dangerous
Australian accent

Those who have been around the Wyldes for an extended length of time have probably heard this saying at least once. The saying is a bit of a family mantra, and it means exactly what it says on the tin. "You can't kill a Wylde," or, more specifically, "Wyldes can't die."
The Wylde family is cursed with immortality. Death is nothing more than a temporary inconvenience, as they will inevitably regenerate and come back to life. While some may see that as a blessing, not a curse, the Wyldes know better. It is a lonely existence.
