"Do you feel it? Feel alive." Muchi to B

Muchi is one of the main characters of the 2220 campaign, alongside Copper Mason and Finnic MacGyver.

Muchi 1.0
Muchi, model number MV219X, was constructed in the capitol wasteland, more specifically Washington DC on March 8th, 2194. She was a test after first generation cyb-type android Chosen to improve on the mechanics, AI and to experiment to see if you truly could build a robot that would be completely compliant with its creators. Muchi would turn out both a failed experiment and success as Sophie Jones, who was supposed to transfer her mind into Muchi, like the old method of constructing AI was conducted, failed to transfer and disappeared. Something that had never happened before.

This experiment happened at Life Co where she was stationed to get tested on. She became friends with a young girl called Zandra, who was the daughter of Sophie. From the start, she absolutely hated Muchi but as they grew closer and saw past each others differences they would become best friends in the later years of their relationship.

20 years after she first had to work for the agencies she temporarily broke free from her android constraints and got a mind of her own, causing her to feel righteous and unescapable anger and she was furious. In her rage she almost accidentally killed Zandra. Her actions would be deemed terrible by her supervisors and the man who was in charge of her, also known as Dimitri had her neurological compartments dismantled taking her data and saved memories, to later keep them in a Life Co file. These tried fixes for the problems would prove fruitless as the changed Muchi had a change in behaviour, the events leading to her personality growing vicious and angered. Dimitri would end up letting her proceed even with her behavioural defaults and for example start selling her out sexually and in general using her to acquire wealth from different missions. After the incident, Zandra would not see Muchi for years.

Her missions would include tasks as murder and prostitution.

Muchi 2.0
The American government would after the fail with the first Muchi begin focusing on a new model with even more enhanced schematics and upgrades as well as a new way of building AI. That modell, who came to be known as Muchi 2.0, would serve the governmental leader. When she was constructed, they kept improving their creations, making B, even better.

Muchi 2.0 later was ordered back to Life Co. When Muchi 1.0 was destroyed in space after The Death, Copper and Finnic extracted the memories of the old model and ventured back to Life Co, where they found the newer model. They would start her up and insert the memories of the old model. Unbeknownst to them however, was that when they started 2.0 the government could spy and gain intel on everyone on the west coast through the monicker of Muchi, not even knowing herself that she was being used this way. Just like the government had planned.

The newer model of Muchi, introduced around the start of Season 2, could at later points begin to feel stuff and unexplainably developed more emotions.

Season 1
Muchi was first introduced in Episode 1: The Beginning together with Copper and Stone, standing next to the Mayor of Bunker 32. She was tasked to escort them to get water from the wasteland, although it would prove that she had ulterior motives as her commands in actuality was get them to Life CO, dead or alive. For this mission, Muchi had a setting installed that would make her perceive herself as human, this because the Bunker had declared robotics as contraband. Her supervisors also thought it suited as her past made her at risk of breaking into deviancy again.

Her humanity however would cause problems and uncooperativeness as she didn't want to do the mission and posed a general negative attitude to the situation. She showed extreme hostility towards her surroundings, and would at many times lash out at her fellow companions, most prominently against Copper Mason who would prove an opposite to her aggressiveness.

Meeting Finnic MacGyver at his home she was the one to apprehend him and effectively force him into the group by kidnapping him and making him drive them towards Life CO. Finnic would remark at her "smelling like plastic". It was around this time she first got in contact with cockroaches as Stone used them to free Finnic's RV from a sandbank, cockroaches would become something she would develop a particular hate and terror for.

Arriving at Life CO, she would come to know of her actual identity as an android when she was accidentally pushed into a water fountain that caused a shortage and almost effectively killing her. After being fixed up and started, she would come to the realisation that she was not human, but robot, something she had declared a despise for. This led to her emotional state becoming fragile, as she had to come to terms of her own fabrication. This caused her program to deviate and she became a deviant, giving her control of her own emotions and feelings. The first Muchi version would get a scar over the abdomen in this event, as an Emma robot was called to save her life after the shortage, but due to the deterioration of the robot Muchi would get sliced up.

During season 1 she would come to know Leia and Serene, two women she developed a hate for. In Life CO she would come to meet Leia after a shootout developed between the two. Later in the season she would meet Serene while escaping Bunker 32, accidentally burning down Serenes house in the progress. Muchi however sees this as a justifiable and morally good action, still feeling satisfied about the event. This has led to speculations that Muchi might be a pyromaniac.

After the events of The Dream, she would change her mindset, as the events made her reflect on her own person. She wanted to prove that she could be better as well as wanting to change from the homicidal mad-lady she had become known as, and would do so by sacrificing herself to save the others from the Trash Planet. As they were hunted down by the Mothership, Muchi would throw herself onto it, taking it, and herself, down from the inside.

However, Muchi had made a choice to save her data in the spaceship's computer base, ans as the other's came back to earth, they could extract it and save it in Finnic's files. Soon the heroes would venture back to Life co to find new parts to build and host a new Muchi.

This would be the introduction of Muchi 2.0, as she was already laying pre-made in Finnic's office, like new. As explained in the Muchi 2.0 section. Her friends would insert the data into the the empty Muchi shell, and Muchi would be reintroduced into the world. She however would not have long to think about what happened as the events of The Life would introduce the threat of the Life CO boss and the introduction of the Life CO computer base.

In the computer she would meet Sophie Jones and Eva Lovelady, in a conversation with Sophie Jones she would come to remember her old friend Zandra Jones Mitchell. Whilst in the computer Muchi was able to retrieve old stored memories hidden by Dimitri Mitchell.

She was partly responsible of blowing up the Life CO HQ in the end of Episode 8: The Life.

Season 2
Muchi, together with Copper Mason, Finnic MacGyver, Stone and Emmer, be subjected to time travel after the events of The Life, caused by Stone's alien artifact being activated during the Life CO explosion. She, together with the others would be brought back to 2006. Muchi herself doesn't have much recollection of the events other than the fact that she afterwards felt closer in a friendly relationship with Stone, after acting as a sort of guard over him throughout the first episode.

Muchi was at first conflicted in the episode on wether or not to pursue Finnic's mission to see Eva Lovelady again, but eventually would agree to helping him. This, after hunting the drugged Stone into the school and locking him into a closet. She would together with Finnic witness the thirteen year old Eva, but no further actions would be taken as to not alter the timeline further. Muchi would however be erased from time and space together with Finnic after Copper disturbed time by walking into the young Eva and altering her routine, making it so that she would never meet Finnic, that leading to a butterfly effect that caused Life CO to never construct robots, causing the American government to not begin their construction of androids. She and Finnic would be brought back after Stone found the 13-year old Finnic and Copper forced him and Eva to meet. They would return to 2220 shortly thereafter with the help of the artifact. Back in the wasteland she would see Life CO exploded, leaving back a great geyser that would return the water back to the Sacramento wasteland.

On the way back from the exploded Life CO, Muchi would come upon a suitcase including Life CO documents, a code and some strands of white hair. This discovery was made after she fell off a bridge and hurt her internal components, causing her to slightly disturb her mechanics. On her return back to Bunker 32 she would become closer and befriend the robot Emmer after having a one sided discussion about life that she had needed to get off her chest. This because she felt Copper and Finnic would not listen to her worries. The talk with Emmer would become a starting point for her to start opening her eyes to the fact that some robots aren't entirely bad.

At the bunker she would be greeted as a hero for returning the water that would save the colony. Muchi would experience a rare feeling of proudness over herself, as she became a hero.

In the bunker she and her friends would come across "The book of a thousand diaries" where she would together with Finnic and Muchi read the diary of Shirley Dickinson (Finnic's mother) and Finnic himself. Whilst at the bunker, she would also get repairs from Copper's caregiver Tungsten. They would come to know that the corrupt mayor of the colony had escaped the bunker, and decided to venture out to find him and bring him to justice. Muchi would come along and they would leave the bunker to head towards the west, where he was said to have headed.

Making a stop at Finnic's cave, Muchi would come across the real name of Finnic, as well as old grades and yearbook photos of him in his teens. This would lead to a great lot of anger between the two, as Muchi first teased him for it and Finnic felt immense betrayal, thinking he'd finally made a friend that wouldn't make fun of him.

The ride that ensued would be filled of anger and offence between the two, until Copper would step forward and make them talk about what had happened. Muchi would apologize, and after some negatives, Finnic would accept the apology and they would make up, later talking about them missing loved ones from the past, and hugging. They would make a fireplace where she, Copper and Finnic would open up and talk to eachother, Muchi starting to telling them more and more about herself, finally showing a more sweet and kind side she'd been hiding for so long. It was revealed that she had no real name aside from Muchi, her missing a last name. Muchi Something Something Asshole Lopez would Finnic choose for her, but it was settled at Muchi Lopez. Finnic had wanted a fancy last name for her. "'My name is Muchi, Muchi Lopez.' - Muchi."Muchi would get a character development in later parts of the trip, where she would deliberately spare a group of people that had brought them into a gunfight at an old-world restaurant, for the reason that she didn't want to kill them. She would later get trapped in a gasstation with a bear where she managed to escape fairly unharmed.

Reaching the snowy banks of the north west she would come to once again meet Zandra Jones Mitchell, an old friend she had been separated from a long time back, in the village of Sonoma. There she, Finnic and Copper would be asked to save a number of villagers captured and enslaved in the city of Slavetown. Also getting a tip that The Mayor might've headed there. Accepting the request, their party was joined by Zandra and 4.

Entering the Trippletowns, Muchi would firstly be subjected to Red Market, where she would escape without major altercation with the natives, contrast to the events Copper would suffer due to the unfamiliar area. She would then follow the group to Slavetown.

In Slavetown, Muchi would together with Finnic, Copper, 4 and Zandra become champions of the Fight Club after meeting the arranger of the fights, Lay's, at a slave auction early on in their visit. Seeing a person 4 and Zandra recognised from the village being sold, 4 would bid 3 million dollars. This however would be outbid by Lay's in an action of impulse. Lay's would buy the villager, which our heroes would have to trade their own participation in the Fight Club with, leading to their win and instant fame that would ensue.

Muchi and Zandra would later burn down a great statue in the east of the village to give slaves the ability to escape, this however would lead them to be apprehended by guards, where Muchi would be taken to be hanged as Zandra was questioned by the authorities. Muchi would be subject of a public hanging in the Arena, where she was strapped to a cage held up by a crane. She would survive the hanging and later get loose and fall relatively safely onto the corpse of a lion.

Meeting up with the others, Muchi would come in contact with Finnic, who had during all this got high at a club to celebrate his newfound fame. Muchi would take care of him, showing a never seen before caring side.

Muchi would become an advocate for freeing the Slavetown slaves, much to her own history of forced work by Dimitri and her other supervisors. Causing her to attack a guard in an attempt to free more slaves, this would prove unsuccessful and the guard would later have to be bribed to avoid consequences. Together they would all decide that the best thing to do would to assassinate the local government after witnessing the horror subjected to the slaves of the city.

To do so they would team up with Mary, a woman advocating for the freedom of the people of Slavetown. She, alongside her associates, most notable, B, would help the heroes to neutralise the Bulletfarm by blowing up a control panel. There, however, B would throw Muchi out from a vent, making her take another route to escape guards that led her down a shaft connecting to an incinerator, barely making it out alive before the Bulletfarm was partly exploded.

Muchi would after this sneak out during night and climb up the towers of The Hub during a thunderstorm, accidentally making a showering man fall unconscious after startling him. She would climb up to the roof where she would be struck by lightning. The electronic impact would indite a flip of a switch that suddenly allowed her to feel physically. After this she would sneak into the bedroom of the Slavetown president, finding documents and almost being caught before escaping, leaving a drop of blue blood on a document. She would further hurt herself as she fell off the building, causing damage to her mechanics.

Muchi would here experience her first seizure like episode. This is still unexplained as to why, but it would happen more throughout the season.

Muchi would once again meet B at the Fight Club. Muchi and B would take on a complicated relationship after this, soon finding out he too, was and android. After this, however, B would disappear from Slavetown, Mary explaining that he was needed elsewhere. After meeting him however, Muchi would take on a robot like personality, only broken by Zandra trying to command her to hurt Copper, where Muchi forced herself to go against orders and break into deviancy again.

To gain public approval for their cause to free the slaves, Zandra proposes that she, Muchi, Finnic, Copper and 4 would conduct a musical with the help of theatre owner Gwyndolin. Their performance would show to be superb, and the public approval for their cause would skyrocket after the event.

She would be shot at the Fight Club after trying to rally people together with Copper, she would be imprisoned but escape. In her escape she would run into two guards, but explain that she was a lost slave of one Niklas Strömstedt, the name on the door of the man in the shower she earlier had noticed. She gets taken there as Copper starts the revolution outside. There she meets John Michael, who mysteriously appeared in the bathroom after Muchi, murdered the real Niklas Strömstedt and now had taken the identity of the man. John Michael would help Muchi in her quest to kill the president. Muchi would make her way to the top once more, but escape as she nearly was caught by the president.

Running back to John, she hid among the numerous women in there belonging to Niklas Strömstedt. The man only known as the president would follow her in, Muchi seeing that the man was no other than Omen Mason, Copper's father. Omen would line up all the women and one by one inspect them, Muchi being the last. As he came before her, he would run his glass knife into her neck, it breaking inside her. Omen would then instruct her to run, which she did.

Muchi would survive with the help of Copper, and the two would hunt Omen to the roof, where a battle ensued, which resulted in Omen falling of the building in a failed attempt to kill his son. Together they had rid Slavetown of evil and freed the slaves. Later they would save Finnic, 4 and Zandra, who had in the meantime been captured.

To repair the damage caused by Omen, Mary tells Muchi that she would need to travel to Washington DC to get special spare parts, something the team agrees on doing after getting the villagers back to Sonoma. On their way back she would try to protect 4 from Leia's hateful comments but got reprimanded for it, upsetting her as she had tried to do something good, this would lead her to try and leave for Washington DC on her own, but she was eventually persuaded to stay by Zandra.

Back in Sonoma, they and the incoming snowstorm would be celebrated, with a great bonfire erected in their honor, there, Copper and Muchi would have an experience, leading them to hear an unfamiliar godlike voice speak to them and tell them to stick together, at all cost. Returning to their word they get their fortunes told, the schaman of Ajar telling Muchi she can't trust those she calls friends.

Season 3
The events in Sonoma would turn her unsure about the whole situation, and would leave her distrusting her friends and wonder if it was best if she would leave them, or to stay. She decides to play some guitar in the RV while the others are asleep. Muchi wants to hurry to the east side to get to be repaired. But as her trust in her friends vanishes, she gets the feeling that no one cares for her problems. When she gets to show off her GPS, however, she would start to feel included, but, when Chosen, another android, was introduced, her feeling of being included would vanish. She, worrying that she would loose her closest friends for an other android, this leading to Muchi starting to feel much jealousy towards the man. "'But do you know that Finnic's last name is...' Muchi, revealing Finnic's true last name to Chosen after an argument in the RV."Muchi would reveal Finnic's last name during an argument and even though Muchi would regret it almost immediately, Finnic would be so hurt by the action that it led him to spiral into emotional distress. After the argument escalated, Muchi would try and escape the moving vehicle, but not before Copper stopped her.

Finnic would put them all in danger as he drove faster and faster, most likely intending to cause harm to himself and the others in the car in an act of a breakdown. Muchi would talk to Finnic, wishing that he would forgive her, the group begging him to slow down. It would eventually work and Muchi would apologize. The argument would deescalate and the gang would turn friendly towards each other again. "'Please I love you. You are like a brother to me' Muchi in her apology to Finnic."The calm would not last long however, as Copper would suffer a mental breakdown as he talked about his issues with being too kind, especially towards those that do not deserve it. Muchi would have a heartfelt talk with him and try to comfort him, this event leaving her concerned for her friend.

Arriving at Robo Park, Muchi would be almost enchanted by the unfamiliar area and it would bring a more funloving side out of Muchi. In Robo Park, Muchi would have a great time, meeting River and getting closer to Chosen after visiting a funhouse with him. She would also beat the world record of Dance Dance Revolution.

Trying to help Finnic to get a new girlfriend, she would propose doing a match making for him, however it would prove unsuccessful and Muchi would give up, disappointed.

Visiting the North Star Tuna Blimp, she would once again meet B, after eavesdropping on him making deals with a Robo Park official. Talking to him wouldn't lead to much, and he would once again leave but outside she would see him again, and they would strike up another conversation. "'How long are you staying?' - B to Muchi.""'Another day or something.' - Muchi""'Good, I like your company.' - B"It is seen that Muchi would start to sympathise with B in this episode. Staying watch during the night, she would meet with him one last time. He would sneak up on her and catch her off guard, where they would have the following conversation. "'You think, you feel, do you feel it? Feel alive.' - Muchi to B""'No' - B""'You are afraid' - Muchi"B would deny her claims, although as Muchi would recall and analyse her memories, she could see him trembling, showing sure signs of fear, a human emotion. B would give her one last line, spoken with the emotion of a human before he left, yet to be seen again. "Muchi, you're being tracked."

The day after, she would assist Finnic to save 4, where she would shoot a man in the head. This however, would come to trouble her, as Copper would witness it. Something Muchi felt very bad for.
