LORD HEIGHT, the Bossman of Zymbot 3
The Feudal Lord of Zymbot 3 is a gooner king and CEO of the entire sphere of Zymbot 3!
The influence of Rauber Height is not far reaching but his wrath is severe. He rules over a chunk of desert on a Planetoid, long abandoned by a forgotten corporation. His distant ancestor is a corporate flunky tasked with watching over the planet.
He wears a diaper with a robot arm that jerks him off constantly. This is his greatest treasure. His throne room plays pornography on loop on whatever surface he casts his eyes upon. In fact, there are cameras installed throughout his so-called Height City and some may still be functional, but he neglects them.
He wants three things. Money, wine and women. And furthermore, he actually wants a fourth thing: Credit for saving the world. He'll only let anyone in to actually fix the Planet Core Stabilizer, if they show him how to stop it as well. He intends to hold the world under ransom.
Most of the buildings in Height City are empty. Squatters, vagrants, pilgrims pass through. Bandits abound. His so-called "Knights", Rauber's Ritters bully anyone weaker than them with impunity. They are the only ones in the desert allowed to ride beasts and they are allowed by law to seize whatever water they desire.
Unfortunately for the people of the planet, he sits atop a piece of technology that stabilizes the planetoid's core. And it's on the fritz.
This is detected in a Temple of the Forebears, far away. An ancient black mirror comes to life and deposits a slip depicting a map of the land, and a mark right at Height City, in the between the cliffs dividing the Dry-Hot-Hell Desert, far away.
It also prints a date. Two months from now.
SAVE THE WORLD!
