Brobot is born in 2087, from a Vacuum Cleaner and an abusive father. Very soon, he started to show a strong propensity for violence, due to his father issue with gasoline, which couldn’t be controlled anymore after 2093, when his mother died from asphyxiation (a rumor speaks of deliberate murder; the one foot square chewing gum she tried to clean from the ground would have been put there on purpose, maybe by her husband).
When Brobot’s father died during the terrible shutdown of 98, his uncle Francis, a respected Mixer, tried to teach him the Robotic Code of Honor. By trying to make him a better machine, his uncle started to notice Brobot’s sudden changes of behavior. He was sometimes very sweet, very robot, showing interest in repairing others, while other time he was just this war machine that even the famous robotic company Pear started to fear.
That’s where Francis realized that his nephew was becoming a schizophrenic robot.
Brobot_02, the gentle side of Brobot, was doing everything he could for repairing the damages of his other self. In 2113, he met Tania, a machinegun who convert herself into earth’s protection, and was a respected leader of Greenpeace. Brobot never accepted her, and tried several time to attempt to her consciousness. Since there, Brobot and Brobot_02 were officially in war.
Brobot would destroy everything Brotot_02 was caring about, and Brotot_02 was repairing them faster and faster. The legends says that at the end, Brobot_02 was repairing robots even before Brobot destroyed them.
It’s only in 2267 that Robota, a beautiful Drill, finally succeeded to reach Brobot’s lines of code, and convinced him to stop the war against his other self.
But Brobot’s redemption, that’s another story…
(For this Maya assignment, we were asked to create a robot using only polygons and the basic movement tools. My plan for making it was to create a head, and to see what would come next.)
