=== Origins === | |||
The Order was founded by a humanoid copper robot built in the [[Prime Universe]] in the late 1950s by [[the Creator|a scientist]] of the [[First Horde]], evidently the same one who would later create the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]]. The robot, later known as [[the Ancient One]], had run away from the Horde in a Void Ship of its own making, taking with him a group of [[Salamandyr|mutated salamanders called Salamandyrs]], because he'd been mistreated by [[Professor Scarper]], to whom he had originally been gifted as an assistant. As time passed, the Ancient One realised the Salamandyrs were also treating him as nothing more than a tool; he ran away from them in one of their stolen Void Ships, and, after returning it to its original owner, decided to found the Order to dedicate his life to helping other mistreated robots. He studied dimensional engineering and created a number of advanced Void Ships, allowing the Order to gradually expand. Eventually, they found an uninhabited dimension and claimed it as their home, dubbing it [[Automatia]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Salamandyrs and the Automata (short story)|The Salamandyrs and the Automata]]'') | |||
Over the following decades, with no other threats forthcoming, they slowly “decommissioned all of [their] battling equipment and military bases and turned them into shopping malls and more robots and the like”. This left them basically defenceless when the Salamandyrs returned in 2019, with the [[Salamandyr War Fleet]] invading Automatia itself without warning, headed by the [[Salamandyr Emperor's Void Ship]]. Remembering the Ancient One's prophecy, the Automata waited around a while, but as the number of captured robots grew, they realised no help was coming, and the [[Captain (Peace and Quiet)|Captain]] gathered all the robots he could aboard the [[Order of the Automata's Void Ship|Order's single great Void Ship]] and headed out into [[the Void]]. | === The First Great War === | ||
{{main|First Great Salamandyr War}} | |||
However, unbeknownst to [[the Ancient One]], the [[Salamandyr]]s' own nation grew. Under the leadership of a self-appointed, power-hungry [[Salamandyr Emperor]], they turned their sights to multiversal conquests, and, having amassed great stores of stolen weapons and even enslaved armies from dimensions they had conquered, they found their way to [[Automatia]]. The Automata were able to just barely keep up with them, leading to a bloody war that lasted for several years. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Salamandyrs and the Automata (short story)|The Salamandyrs and the Automata]]'') | |||
As the War seemed hopeless, the Ancient One declared that he had a “secret plan”, and also that should he be killed, he had discovered a way to come back to life in the Order's hour of greatest need. The former part was a lie meant to boost morale, though the latter actually wasn't, but the Order never got the chance to find out as the Ancient One was destroyed in a surprise attack, only for the tide to then turn and the Automata to triumph against the Salamandyrs on their own powers, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Peace and Quiet (short story)|Peace and Quiet]]'') having been emboldened by their grief.

=== Decades of peace === | |||
Over the following decades, with no other threats forthcoming, they slowly “decommissioned all of [their] battling equipment and military bases and turned them into shopping malls and more robots and the like”. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Peace and Quiet (short story)|Peace and Quiet]]'') They made a name for themselves as interdimensional-vehicle engineers on the multiversal scene; the Order's “finest engineer” created the [[Void Limousine]] used first by the [[Queen of the Black Market]] (who commissioned it) and, later, by [[Wendy VII]].

=== Encounter with Marksmanship-522 === | |||
This left them basically defenceless when the Salamandyrs returned in 2019, with the [[Salamandyr War Fleet]] invading Automatia itself without warning, headed by the [[Salamandyr Emperor's Void Ship]]. Remembering the Ancient One's prophecy, the Automata waited around a while, but as the number of captured robots grew, they realised no help was coming, and the [[Captain (Peace and Quiet)|Captain]] gathered all the robots he could aboard the [[Order of the Automata's Void Ship|Order's single great Void Ship]] and headed out into [[the Void]]. | |||
There, while hovering above the [[Interdimensional Tavern]], they found [[Marksmanship-522]], who they decided must be the reincarnated Ancient One. Taking him to Automatia, they beamed him onto the Emperor's ship despite his protests. However, by coincidence, Marksmanship ended up discovering the Salamandyrs' great weakness to lavender, and soon forced them all to flee back to their own Dimension. As he was being hailed by a hero by the Automata, Marksmanship witnessed the return of the ''actual'' Ancient One, who apologised for being late. While he caught up with the rest of the Order, minor robot [[21-419]] was assigned to fly Marksmanship back to the Tavern aboard the Order's Void Ship.
