Exobot (AOL)

Exobot has finally reclaimed his rightful place as duke of Droidium - but that may not be cause for celebration.

Exobot launched an attack against the Venusian Liberation Army, the terrorist group that had previously ousted him from power and had control of Droidium. Exobot gathered his forces on Outpost and when the moment was right, he committed his troops. Although Exobot was aided by loyalists throughout the duchy, the VLA had firm control and fanatical warriors, so the fighting was fierce. Pitched battles took place around Droidium as well as Eternity and Merkant.

The combat around all three worlds was deadly and casualties were high. In fact, the fighting in the Merkant and Eternity systems was so destructive that both planets were completely obliterated! The capital would have suffered a similar fate, but for an eleventh-hour agreement that stopped the fighting.

Details of the peace treaty between Exobot and the VLA are scarce. A proclamation made by the Duke announcing his triumphant return was informative only insofar as no mention was made of the VLA. In light of the fact that the first new planet to join the reclaimed duchy was Atlantis, whose overlord C5crwchief is an ardent VLA supporter, it must be assumed that the terrorists remain in Droidium. Apparently Droidium is now a safe haven for the Venusian villains.

Now that they have the support of a Duke, what the VLA's next move will be is anyone's guess.

Death
In August 1996 Exobot died dead-dead in a mass suicide with fellow Dukes/Duchesses BggWow and Amenemhet/Amy.
