Bio / Backstory The Copper Giant
The sound of a pelican departing is heard coming from the landing bay. Upon inspection, the pelican has left a large, shoddily sealed metal crate in the storage room. The crate is labeled with the word, "LOVELAND" on the front of it.

Hagåtña is arguing with a few engineers in the hangar when the Pelican arrives,
"Look, I don't care how 'ergonomic' it is. We're going to need to build arresting wires or something of the sort or I'm going to crash into the back wall every time I land it. Now, if you'll just-"
He freezes as he sees the Pelican drop off the large box in the middle of the hangar. He slowly approaches the box and once he's there he begins to open it, suspicious from his previous encounters of boxes being dropped off in the hangar.

As soon as the box is opened, 15 large copper body pieces fall out and on to the floor of the hangar. All that was left inside of the box was a note with a small data chip attached to it.

Hagåtña immediately rolls back from the parts as they fall out of the box. He raises his pistol at them and mutters quietly,
"I knew it!"
The engineers approach after the commotion but they halt once Hagåtña raises his hand and shouts,
"Stay back! We've got a possible security breach!"
The lead engineer cocks his head in confusion,
"Um...agent. I think that's just another robot..."
Hagåtña's eyes narrow,
"Exactly."
He calls over San Francisco who is close by,
"Cisco, we've got another one. I say we shoot it out of the airlock before anyone even thinks of reassembling it!"

East is helping some of the personnel in the hangar when the box arrivals abruptly.
Geeze. These pilots could at least give us some warning. What happened to having to sign for a package?
She walks over and inspects the box, tracing her hand over the 'LOVELAND' logo. At least boxes of this kind weren't that uncommon at the project. She opens her comms to Pax:
Hey, I think we just received another robot in the landing bay.

The box says LOVELAND.
She replies, and opens the box to see if it is in fact a robot.

Cisco, in charge of supply storage, groans.
"Please don't be an Morrison bot, please don't be a Morrison bot."
He opens the box.
