When this site was discovered and destroyed, his remains were kept alive 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 the anima-touched conditions to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey, Robert was an involuntary consultant among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. Decades later, Robert was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A 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 excruciating 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 large and small cases--and disseminating their findings to both their factions. |
