Mordred's Robot

**Mordred's Robot** was a robot that the Binary Bard created for battle purposes.

## Appearance

The robot resembles a large mechanical Samurai with wheels for feet. There is a control room in which Mordred sits. In front of it, there is a hole that shoots projectiles and drops bombs. The robot wields a pair of samurai swords. It also sprouts horns near the top. Between the horns is the Green Fuel Orb that powers the robot.

## Abilities

Samurai Sword Spin - The robot can spin its samurai swords around, whacking you backwards.

Spiky Projectiles - The robot can shoot spinning spiky heat-seeking projectiles that follow you around.

Bomb Drop - The robot can drop bombs that flash when they are about to detonate.

Laser - The robot can fire a laser, and it will knock you backwards.

## Battles

### Battle of Arturus

It is unknown how it was used, but it has been confirmed that Mordred used his robot in the Battle of Arturus.

### Battle of Mordred's Fortress

The Chosen One (you) ventured inside Mordred's Fortress, where s/he found the Princess in a cell. After that, Mordred enters his robot. Merlin then flew in, and Mordred realized that he was a traitor. Mordred fired the circle with spinning blades, but Merlin evaded the weapon. Merlin grabbed two bombs and dropped them on Mordred and his robot. Mordred then fired a laser at Merlin, who fell to his demise. The Chosen One ran in and jumped on Mordred's robot, and then jumped on two chandeleirs. Mordred fired at the chandeleirs, which fell on his robot, and then knocked the Green Fuel Orb off of the robot. Mordred drove his robot away, and then jumped out and tried to steal the Orb once again. The Princess was freed from her cell and knocked Mordred out. The Chosen One and the Princess took the Orb and Merlin back to the Kingdom of Arturus. Power was once again restored to Arturus, and the Princess had Merlin repaired.

Ned Noodlehead

Gender

**Ned Noodlehead** is a generous comic book salesman who appears on Super Power Island. According to Poptropica Adventures, he is Betty Jetty's brother.

## Characteristics

Ned is fun loving at heart - comic books and hotdogs is his idea of fun - although is slightly delusional. While he daydreams about being a super hero, he actually appears to think that he is that persona. After "defeating" Betty Jetty, he takes full credit for your work.

## Storyline

### Role In Super Power Island

Ned is an average hero-loving civilian who works at and owns the Comic Book Shop, yet "Super Hotdog Boy" is an average super sausage superhero/sidekick. He will give you a manual on How to become a Super Hero. After knocking Betty Jetty out of the sky, Ned dashes into her, knocking her out. Despite defeating 5 out of 6 bad guys, you will have the glory taken away by Ned though all he did was finish off Betty Jetty (yet you learn that glory isn't everything). When you offer to trade him a hot dog for the medallion, he happily accepts.

### Role In Reality TV Island

Ned also appears on Reality TV Island as a fellow competitor occasionally. Before the challenges, he says, "Just give me a hotdog and I can take any challenge," or, "Did you know I'm really a super hero in disguise?" or, "Did you know I've memorized over 2,000 comic books?". He never appears as "hot dog guy" or even when he appears with a cape on him.

### Role In Poptropica Adventures

When Ned's comic book shop was robbed, he asked a Poptropican to help figure out who did it. But when he discovered it was his sister, Betty Jetty, he destroyed all of the evidence that it was her, unfortunately for Ned, the Poptropican put the evidence back together and caught Betty Jetty in the subway. Ned ran in and told the truth of what happened, and Betty said the only reason she stole form the comic book shop was so she could share them with everyone, which Ned never did. So he hired her to work in the shop and help share the comic books.

Mademoiselle Moreau

Gender

**Mademoiselle Moreau**, also known as the **Le Monde Reporter**, is the villain of Mystery Train.

## Characteristics

Moreau is a news reporter, and a France fanatic, even decorating her temporary cabin on the train with things from her home country. But if she finds something that might upstage France or the World's Fair held in Paris, she will go to drastic measures to stop or destroy it. If possible, she would go as far as the White House to try to upstage the U.S. She can even be described as slightly insane.

## Storyline

Moreau starts out on the train, and when you talk to her, she'll give you an edition of the newspaper she reports for, the Le Monde (you don't need it, but it's interesting to read - if you know French). Later, when the train goes through the tunnel, causing there to be no lights, she sneaks into Thomas Edison's cabin and steals his motion capture device. Then she goes into the coal car while the Coal Man was getting a snack and pulling the stop lever.

She then puts the device in her suitcase, after switching nametags with Tesla and covering the french stuff in her suitcase, accidentally getting coal marks on her suitcase. Still while the train is stopped, she sneaked outside and tossed the key to 'Tesla's' suitcase into his room. She heads back on the train.

She walks towards the Luggage Car, but, noticing you examining the coal marks, she tosses scissors at you, then slips away. Later she returns to the Luggage Car, and waits. Soon you arrive, and she manipulates you into pretending to be the Porter, then you get the key in Tesla's cabin. Then you open her suitcase, thinking it Tesla's, and find the missing device. You shout in suprise of this, and Moreau informs a Pinkerton Guard, and Tesla is arrested.

Then, as you work more on the case, realizing Tesla to be innocent, Moreau continiues on to her master plan. First she sneaks into Erik Weisz's cabin and steals one of his lockpicks. Then she goes into Tesla's cabin and unlocks his trunk and steals what is in it - Tesla's Transformer, so the Ferris Wheel won't work and the Chicago World's Fair won't be better than the Paris World's Fair.

At the last second of the train's traveling, you realize that Moreau is the thief, and as the train stops, Moreau, holding the Transformer, races away, with you right behind her. She quickly gets the Chicago Police to go after you, but you outsmart them and chase Moreau onto the Ferris Wheel, as a thunder and rain rolls in. On the Ferris Wheel she tosses a box onto you, and even tosses the Transformer off, but you swing through a rope and grab it.

Then you corner Moreau at the top of the Ferris Wheel, but suddenly a frighteningly close lightning strike causes the evil reporter to lose her balance, and she falls into Weisz's (Houdini's) water tank. Most likely, she is then brought to jail.

## Trivia
