== DOR-15 of InventCo. Labs (Meet the Robinsons, 2007) ==

King - DOR-15, AKA Doris

The mechanical bowler hat known as DOR-15 (or Doris) is not native to our time. Rather, Doris was created in the future as a 'Helping Hat' meant to assist humanity. Rejecting her perceived enslavement, Doris turned against humankind, and after being tossed aside as a failed prototype, traveled to the past to change history. The alterations to history had a variety of negative consequences, but none were more dire than Doris worming her mechanical appendages into a position of power. Being built to serve humans, Doris knows how to best twist their minds into compliance. It’s armed with this knowledge of the human psyche that DOR-15 cloaks her very existence from the world, preferring to operate from the shadows and manipulate the masses through InventCo. While clever and patient, DOR-15 has a processor of pure malice and desires nothing more than the complete enslavement of humanity. 

Land - InventCo. Labs

InventCo. Labs was the company that DOR-15 commandeered, tricking them into producing a line of Helping Hats that would serve as the backbone of her influence. Her devilish derbies were shipped across the Deep South, sold to an eager public, and placed onto unsuspecting heads. Life under her iron brim is as mesmerizing as it is disorienting. Fantastical inventions from make life easier, but are also jam packed with subliminal messages, keeping them from questioning the gaps in their memory or the ever-present InventCo. headwear. Most of the south remains ‘normal’, merely with a variety of sleeper agents slowly worming their way into positions of control. But the deeper you go into DOR-15’s territory, the less friendly things get, with hat drones and armed bombíns patrolling the streets of her heartland of Florida, watching for any unhatted strays or potential saboteurs. It all culminates in DOR-15's central haberdashery of Todayland, which has been transformed into a smoggy industrial zone. There, the pretense of free will has been dropped. Everyone there is a slave and every building resembles a bowler hat. Under Todayland, Doris keeps the damaged remains of her time machine. Attempts to repair it have resulted in a catastrophic bomb that could rip apart all of time if ever triggered.

Rule - KEEP. MOVING. FORWARD.

Outside the borders of DOR-15’s hat hegemony, InventCo is seen by the public as a marketing juggernaut, their products ensuring brand loyalty to a fault. While the traces of subliminal messaging have been identified by smarter minds, it’s seen as a marketing ploy, with almost no one recognizing the true intent of InventCo’s invasive methods. Citizens inside DOR-15’s borders are bombarded with subliminal messages, their free wills shackled to InventCo. Products. This, coupled with Helping Hats adorning their heads means DOR-15 has a loyal drone just waiting to be activated in each of her unaware citizens. By holding an entire population as a ready on command army, the only way to beat her without tremendous loss would be through a precision strike on Todayland. InventCo’s hypnosis can be resisted by higher minds, and her mind-jacking leaves drones clumsy and thuggish. As such, those with specialized skills are frequent targets of more sophisticated manipulation, though any creature she can't control by hat is also subject. If she only needs someone for raw muscle, though, then their willing participation in her plans is irrelevant.
