AP-127

AP-127 is the designation of some human who was abducted by the Mondites.

## Arrival

The ship Roenick brought him to Daedalus.

Sometime before d1892 they took him to Cellblock (Security Cell 3). Martic Dane noticed him first, after his first surgery, and wondered if it was somehow Park or Klima, or some crewman of his ship that somehow survived, but it wasn't. Dane attempted to communicate with him but he never reacted.

In his Logbook he wrote his worries, that they will mutilate his flesh to make him into something inhuman, even alter his mind. But he swore with all his will that his spirit, his internal nature, and identity will not be twisted or broken.

The time when K.C. Caynan discussed with Dane their escape, 3 guards entered, and took him out at gunpoint. Dane noticed that he covered his eyes with his hands as he walked slowly.

He became one of Dr. Amet Mastaba's experiment subjects who involved Phyxx technology, and his first success. His memory was erased. He returned to his cell for Recovery, awaiting mental conditioning and psychological programming.

By d1891 Dr. Eden Escher noticed that he had virtually all of his body replaced by machinery.

## Escape

On d1895 he was aroused by some tremors and stood up despite the Nursebot's warnings and threats. He received some communication from Altron, a disembodied entity: a former Mondite who uploaded their thought matrix to a computer, and somehow accessed AP-127's brain. Altron explained that it also needed to escape the base and the planet, and gave him guidance and information to serve both of them.

AP-127 had to hit the nursebot towards the force beams, and managed to leave his cell.

Reaching the Guard Room, he heard radio voices who spotted him by the cameras, and heard that reinforcements were coming against him.

He made his way to the Tower where two Dropships attempted to destroy him with warheads but he shot them with the Perimeter Defense Weapon. Then he went to the Operating Room to meet his maker, Mastaba, who neutralized him with a controller. Mastaba revealed to him that he is a machine made for killing, and made a demonstration of the PFD weapon inside him, despite his will. He was briefly rescued by Martic Dane.

After getting rid of Drogg and temporarily fixing the Reactor Room problem, he left the base looking for a power source to activate the *Icarus*. He broke into the Dig Site and met the remnants of the Phyxx civilization, noting that he feels like his home, as part of him is also Phyxx.

## Hardware

He underwent extensive and invasive surgery and parts of his body and brain were replaced by cybernetics. The right hip is the battery receptor, while empty parts of his body are used for storage (inventory); anything stored is processed byt he PIM. The battery is non-rechargeable but replaceable.

The cyber part of his brain thinks independently. He was equipped with a Personal Information Manager (PIM) operated from his wrist. It provides information about the objects he is carrying, diagnostics and a journal, that is updated automatically and subconsciously with his thoughts. His vision and hearing are also adjustable through the PIM.

Being destined be an assassin, AP-127 was equipped by Dr. Mastaba with a phenomenal automjatic self-repairing/healing system, which however drains his internal battery.

He is designed both for melee combat, but also to carry the internal RFD gun designed around Phyxx. Dr. Mastaba hasnt completed work on the battery by the time of the disaster.

## Trivia

AP-127 is voiced by actor Joe Langham.

Fans/gamers usually refer to the game protagonist as "Lex", although this name doesn't appear in the gameplay, the narrative, or the documentation. The origin of the name seems to be this line in the CD-ROM's readme file:
Template:Quote

It is not known why the question refers to the character as Lex in parentheses, but it is possible that Lex could had been the character's name or nickname during development, and the text file was written during that stage; if the name Lex appeared anywhere else in the game, it seems that it had been cut.

This can be supported by the fact that the game files (cf. bioforge\monitors\text.flx in the CD-ROM) have sections that refer to the game character with names like [LEX], [LEXLOG], [LEXID] etc.

It is not known if the name suggests any connection to the character Rann Lexxen, at least during development stage. In the actual game Lexxen is not among the identity possibilities for AP-127 (look below).

## Identity

The identity of the protagonist is not set/fixed but changed in certain playthroughs, either randomly or according to the actions/choices of the player, oute from the archive of Mastaba's experiments. A Wikipedia user called Nuk claimed to have reverse engineered the game files, pinpointing the factors the calculate the identity of the protagonist. To summarize, if the player shows most mercy in all options, he is revealed to be Vidor Selmak; the most violent choices reveal Tomik Sarta.
