C3M-OR4 was once a weaponized robot that fought on the Ivaanian side during the Universal War. While they have very, very vague memories of fighting during the war, they didn't come to be until after the war, where their their core was placed into a new body.

C3M-OR4 lived a normal life with their creator Trubiloq, and learned Iva'anese, Galax, and how to walk and think for themselves. Their new life was going well, until they got the notif that they were scheduled to be destroyed and recycled because of their participation in the war.

This struck them with fear. They were getting accustomed to their new life and had a lot to learn, and didn't want to give that up so quickly.

They grabbed one of Trubiloq's small starships, and fled the planet.

They had basic knowledge on how to operate a starship based on what Trubiloq taught them, but it didn't stop them from crashing into a moon of the planet Kerosa. They crash landed on a farming planet, home to a thriving society of inhabitants known as the Tetrias.
