== Biography == | |||
=== In 1897 === | |||
Skollops was one of the [[Wellsian]]s of the [[97th Cosmos]] who participated in the attempted 1897 invasion of Earth [[Earth#In the 97th Cosmos|Earth]]. After the invasion was foiled by a plague which decimated the Wellsians, a few non-contaminated ones escaped in a [[Tripod]] modified for space travel, which found its way to [[Venus#In the 97th Cosmos|Venus]], where it crashed. ([[VIDEO]]: ''[[The Wellsians (video story)|The Wellsians]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Resurrection of the Wellsians (short story)|The Resurrection of the Wellsians]]'') The seven Wellsians who survived the crash went into hibernation while their craft became buried under many feet of Venusian sand. Eventually, nearly a century later, a base called [[Morningstar 1]] was built by the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]] over the exact spot of the crash. The Wellsians, in their sleep, telepathically felt the new presences, but did not wake yet. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Resurrection of the Wellsians (short story)|The Resurrection of the Wellsians]]'') | |||
=== Resurrection === | |||
{{main|Mandragora's Great Experiment}} | |||
Having unearthed the [[Tripod]] by accident while trying to dig up a new pool, the alchemist [[Mandragora-257]], who had been banished to [[Morningstar 1]] after one of his experiments went wrong in the Homeworld, engaged in a “[[Mandragora's Great Experiment|Great Experiment]]” to revive the intact, but hibernating Wellsians he had extracted from the wreckage. He promised [[Governor-105|the base's Governor]] that the resurrected aliens, who would be able to rebuild their [[Heat Ray]]s, would allow him to rebel against the Crew once and for all, conquer the Earth, and use it as a launching point for an all-out campaign across [[the Multiverse]]. | |||
However, the Wellsians were playing the Cupids for their own ends. After finding that the Governor had locked the three Fog Ships kept on retainer in the base, they sent a psychic distress call to the [[Cupid Homeworld]] to lure a new vehicle: the [[Department of Problem-Solving]]'s [[Department of Problem-Solving's Fog Ship|Ship]]. The Problem-Solvers uncovered Mandragora's plans, but were unable to stop things from violently coming to a head, with [[Mizrax ag-Ustis|one Wellsian]] killing [[Governor-105]] point-blank and [[Retsha sog-Wampyr|the other]] trying to shoot Mandragora. Because Mandragora was carrying an explosive chemical on his person at the time, this caused an explosion which destroyed the base, killing that Wellsian and one other, as well as discorporating Mandragora. The other Cupids were unharmed, but soon discovered that the five remaining Wellsians had long since taken advantage of the distraction to make their escape. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Resurrection of the Wellsians (short story)|The Resurrection of the Wellsians]]'') | |||
=== Wandering === | |||
In their stolen ship, the Wellsians made their way to the [[Interdimensional Black Market]] and subsequently acquired a [[Thrash|new planet]]. | |||
There, for [[Allac-Ur]], he worked with the other three surviving Wellsians to arrange for the purchase of an enchanted music bow from [[Madame Tarsa]] as a present to the [[New Wellsian Empire]]'s leader, [[Radluhac ag-Wampyr]]. When the box failed to appear in time, he conferred with [[Sympus ag-Forgos|General Sympus]], with them agreeing on having Skollops travel to the [[Interdimensional Black Market]] to see if there were any rumours about what had had happened to Tarsa, and purchase an alternative gift if she could not be found. | |||
Using his psychic abilities to take control of the [[Queen of the Black Market]]'s [[Wraith]]s, Skollops overheard a conversation between the Queen, Pythagoras-858 and [[Sherlock Holmes#In the Prime Universe|Sherlock Holmes]] on the subject of [[Artefact of Power|Artefacts of Power]] and demanded to be given one to present to Radluhac. However, he was snuck up on and defeated by the Queen's lover [[Wendy VII]], who was invisible to the Wraiths thanks to her [[psychic dampener]] hair-clip. He ended up having to bargain instead, exchanging a lesser artefact, the [[Whistle of the Witch Varganax]], for the knowledge of where [[the Clown Emperor]] had gone after escaping from Holmes and Pythagoras.
