> > That means that if he's [Drury] reacting so strongly to Anna then he knows or thinks he knows something to justify it. He won't be covering his own ass but he might be covering someone else's by order. He might know things about Anna even she doesn't. It's the basis for a good long-running intrigue/espionage thriller.

> Or maybe he just believes she was created as a killing machine, and he doesn't believe she can change what she was designed for. It's like Dr. Rotengen (is he the living radiation guy?) deciding to settle down and raise a family in normal society. As long as Anna is essentially a living weapon, Drury won't trust her. The only reason why he lets Anna stay with the Lair Legion is because they're pretty much used to having living weapons around.

> The scientist could be anyone. The only facts are that Anna's creator is a genius and is no longer around to question.

So the creator could be Ultizon, the adamantine killer robot, the self-proclaimed metal messiah who seeks the ascention of robotkind over the corpses of humanity?
There's a reason for Drury to want Anna boxed and buried.
> > There's a huge black ops backstory here that will make a great adventure in its own right.
> There have already been pieces of it when the Destruct-O-Bots came for Anna. Still nobody really knows who sent them or why. It could have been SPUD, it could have been some other contracted govt organization or recovery organization, or it could simply have been some super-villain who wants to disassemble Anna and figure out how to make more.
> Though ironically, Anna's build wouldn't be terribly useful to a super-villain, since she thinks so independently and can judge things for herself. Same reason SPUD considers her a failure.

She doesn't have to think like a superviallin to be a threat. If she decided to "save" mankind from its own folly by taking over, for example, she could be just as dangerous.
