## **Biography**

#### **Creation**

Mama Imelda was once the matriarch of the Rivera family, but died in the 1980s and became a spirit in the Land of the Dead. Haunted by the death of her mother, her daughter, Mama Coco set out to bring her back from the grave. In 2010, she, along with her longtime friend and business partner, Mr. Peabody, successfully created a prototype android they dubbed *Mama Imelda Bot*. Through both science and Satanic rituals, they managed to summon Imelda's soul, and fused it with the device, awakening her once again.

#### **Early Years**

The *Mama Imelda Bot* was not very active in the beginning. It was used as a basis for a complete set of Rivera Bots. Peabody and Coco developed *Tia Rosita Bot*, *Cousin Felipe Bot*, *Cousin Oscar Bot*, *Tia Victoria Bot*, *Abuela Bot*, and *Papa Julio Bot*. Each was programmed with the same purpose: To always protect their living relative and his dog, the original Miguel and Dante. However, the hasty development of the androids was a recipe for disaster. All but three (Imelda, Julio, and Abuela) malfunctioned, and attacked their creators during the Revolt of 2011. Miguel and Dante were tragically killed in the fight. The remaining loyal bots fought back, and eventually defeated their rebellious counterparts. Abuela Bot was completely destroyed, and Imelda and Julio were badly damaged. Peabody and Coco agreed to lock them away in storage, writing the entire operation of as a failed experiment.

-Mama Imelda Bot to Miguel or Dante

After spending eight years dormant, Mama Imelda awoke from her restful state and escaped from storage, Her drive to fulfill her purpose had somehow been reactivated. There was another Miguel and Dante. She flew from Coco's laboratory to a town in rural California, where she found a boy and a dog, recognizing them as her family. They were reasonably confused and attempted to escape, but she prevented them from leaving, taking them on a mission with her. She introduced them to her drivers and bodyguards, Mammot, Entbrat, and Bowgart. They traveled to Vancouver, British Columbia, attempting to rescue a group of monsters from being destroyed in a scheduled bombing of their home. Along the way, the boys began to embrace their new life of adventure, and bonded with their Mama Imelda.
