It's a long, dumb story.

Well, I tried to write a comic strip long, long ago and Kwardi-Anden-Nork ver. 1.0 was one of the characters. He was a horribly outdated combat robot belonging to a race of aliens who tried to abduct and domesticate humans in order to in order to sell them as pets to other species (see, humans are the 3rd-cutest race in the galaxy). He looks like a steel barrel with antennae and long, hose-like arms offset by short, spindly legs. After the aliens were foiled by the heroes, the robot fell to earth and had its memory damaged by the fall. After a short stint as Teflon, CPU of the Jungle, he was found by the heroes and reprogrammed into a general-purpose lackey-bot and renamed '10Kan'.

10Kan's personality is a mixture of stupitity, enthusiasm and violent tendencies. Most people agree that I don't live up to at least one of these attributes, but I've grown too attached to the name to give it up, and I'm doomed to be known as '10Kan' on the internet.
