Cosmagun may be younger than Tonnexa, but it was the sponsor that brought it to stardom. Its chairman: Nebulus Ultranova, self-proclaimed Captain of the Cosmos. Thanks to Tonnexa’s popularity, Cosmagun took a few weeks to become a multimillionaire company.
The generation grew old, but did not want their skills to go to waste. This was where Nebulus got the idea of a machine that would keep them active until their departure. With the earned money, exhaustive research, and feedback from those involved, Stardron was born. The Stardron Operating System (StardronOS) was conceived a few days before the project was completed.
The main purpose of Stardron was to provide an artificial, strong companion for anyone who asked for it; while Tonnexa was a big part of its identity, it could also assist with certain activities. After all, one of Cosmagun’s biggest promises guaranteed respect and accessibility. Given its demand, Nebulus instructed the creation of clones; the original model was since labeled Stardron Zero. However, it could no longer step outside to help others, only those in Cosmagun’s Sumphis facility. Despite this, Stardron Zero held no resentment; Nebulus would visit it every now and then to polish the skills of one another.
Then, Stardron Zero’s core was hijacked, converting it into a machine which purpose was only to wreak havoc everywhere it went; the culprit remains unknown. Stardron Zero entered Middle Space Kingdom and did not show mercy to anyone on its way to the command center. As soon as Nebulus was notified, he confronted it. Their fight was a feast of mauling and bloodshed. He thought it was over when he cried his vital energy; if it weren’t for StardronOS sending the first Elite clones to neutralize Stardron Zero, Nebulus would have been done for. He stood in Frutropolis during the 16 months of his recovery.
Meanwhile, StardronOS also found itself in a dead end. Stardron Zero was quarantined, but it did not want the 750 clones to suffer the same way. It moved them all inside the facility, trained them for hours at a time, and reduced its purpose to solely participate in Tonnexa. As soon as StardronOS learned of Nebulus’ return to Sumphis, it lifted its restrictions and continued producing Stardron clones.
Nebulus still had faith in the project, but he knew that Stardron Zero was too powerful for him. He injected a portion of his vital energy into the core of what became Stardron No. 1011; he had just contributed to the conception of a superweapon. It could outperform all its kind, but it had one major flaw…
