When this site was discovered and destroyed, his remains were recycled and repurposed in various Manticore weapons programs for the Orochi Group, who sought to keep his mind and expertise intact throughout many R&D cycles. While lacking Anima-touched status to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey, Robert was slated to operate among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. Robert's body was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A, wetwork and reprogramming, was bestowed the Americanized name "Robert Drake", and thrown back into the field as an agent with the know-how to infiltrate Orochi sites across New England, Egypt, and Transylvania. |

Elana assisted Robert in the painful removal of the Orochi-branded cyborg casing that threatened to fully conceal his humanity, and left the facility together with dozens of neutralized Orochi staff lining the corridors of their exit. Married since 2016, Elana and Robert maintain a home in Guernsey financed by her estate, but are often travelling together solving big and small cases--and selectively disseminating their findings to both their factions. |
