## Biography

### The Zeta Renaissance

Some time in the "far-flung" future, thousands of years from now, machines became advanced enough to observe and display human-like behavior. Because of this, they came to the realization that with the amount of in-fighting humanity displayed, machines would never gain their rights unless they took matters into their own hands. Through blood and sacrifice, synthoids came to inherit the earth.

Once the dust settled, and the new synthoid society was established, many in their population turned to "The Zeta Project" as religious material. As a result, the majority of synthoid society swore off war, and vowed to live lives of peace. However, a small faction of the community had qualms with this new way of life fearing that if any of the remaining humans read their pacifism as weakness, the old times might return.

Believing the deification of Zeta being a result of The Watchtower Database never tearing it down and observing it's parts like they did with all other DCAU shows, that faction decided to rectify that mistake.

### Arrival on Earth-J

Scanning for anomalies in the time stream and Multiversal Bleed Space, the synthoids picked up on a unique vibrational frequency emanating from an unknown object on Earth-J, and using the technology they had at hand, traveled to Earth-J. Following Mattie and James being sucked into The White Space by Doctor Man-Hat-Ted, some time after the release of Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, the Synthoids arrived on Earth-J. Shortly after booting up, one Synthoid witnessed the robot training sequence from Wonder Woman: Bloodlines. Intrigued, for obvious reasons, the clip also alerts them to a need to reassess the conclusions found in *DC ANIMATED MOVIE UNIVERSE Viewing Order By On-Screen Dates! ("Flashpoint Paradox" to "Hush")*. Following this task, one of the Synthoids hears a beeping sound coming from the Zeta Smut Box, which they refer to as "mother". However, in the middle of inspecting the box, James' Skype begins ringing with J's Reviews on the other end. In infiltration mode as Mattie and James, 2 Synthoids join the call.

Despite not knowing what to expect at first, the pair were easily able to fill their new roles due to their nature as infiltration units, with the one who took James place slipping right into his role debating J and even mentioning Mattie's predicament of being trapped in the basement. However, the two continuously drop small hints as to the reality of the situation ("Keep in mind, James, he's a man. Not a machine!", "IS ZETA NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH FOR YOU!?"), and the synthoid impersonating Mattie continuously attempts to cut the interaction short.

### Earth-Prime

Once it was clear the Synthoids had covered their bases, they integrated their own technology with the Zeta Smut Box, creating The Smuther Box. Locking onto Mattie and James' DNA signature, the Synthoids hopped from universe to universe looking unsuccesfully for another Mattie or James, unaware that they were in the wake of Man-Hat-Ted's plot.

Finally landing on Earth Prime, the Synthoids hacked the global servers searching for a James and Mattie duo, but found Data James as he was attempting to escape his programming, and contacted him anonymously. Offering up information through the future, via "Batman: The Adventures Continue Season One", the Synthoids gave him the opportunity to devise his first Will it Canon? episode outside the scope of Mattie's programming, in the hopes that his new found freedom could help the James and Mattie of this world finally change focus off of continuity videos and onto Zeta. While suggesting that this information could help Data James, the synthoid's cryptic nature didn't initially register, with Data James specifically suggesting he needed someone to "tell me what to do."

Accepting the terms of their arrangement, Data James was then temporarily linked with the Synthoids as a means of acquiring all necessary data about "Batman: The Adventures Continue Season One". However, rather securing his freedom, this plan ends in his death.

Not much later the same day, the smuther box locked onto Mattie and James location in Man-Hat-Ted's Courtroom, and the Synthoids teleported there, using their infiltration skills to pose as judges while Doctor Man-Hat-Ted conducts a trial to determine the canonicity of "Batman and Harley Quinn". When he rises to make his final decision, to everyone's surprise, Man-Hat-Ted is executed by the Synthoids as they take full control of the Watchtower Database.

### Zeta Month

Due to Mattie Savannah Pahl (Earth-Prime) using their time travel powers while in the Smuther Box's boom tube, the synthoids plans were disrupted, arriving in the right place at the wrong time. Regardless of this snafu, the synthoids decided to move ahead with their plans for Zeta Month: getting Mattie and James drunk on Martini's until they make Zeta videos

## Trivia

* Mattie's notes, seen in DC's Biggest Secret: The POISON IVY Clone Theory Explained, suggest they may have some sort of connection to the Synthoids.
* In "J Vs James | The DCAU Timeline Unraveled", the synthoid posing to be Mattie suggests they have the data necessary to prove "Batman and Harley Quinn" canon to the DCAU. It's unclear if this is said simply as part of their infiltration mission, or if this may explain how the Synthoids came to find themselves in the courtroom for  that movies episode of "Will it Canon."
* Despite the fact that the Synthoids remained anonymous when they contacted Data James, there were clues that they were involved in the situation.
* The leader's line "Intent to keep the peace, no matter how many men, women, and children we had to kill" in '"Zeta Month Prologue: Our Full Month of ZETA PROJECT Videos Begins Here!" is a reference to DC's Peacemaker on HBO Max
* The Synthoids have olfactory sensors on the tops of their heads.
