The World of Alottabotz

Alottabotz Life:

The world of Alottabotz is much like it is here on Earth, however, everything and everyone is robotic! No two bots are the same: some have wheels, some have wings, others have propellers or springy things. All are unique. The kids go to school and the parents go to work. They live in houses or condos or flats and do chores and have homework just like we do. They can be happy or sad, silly or serious. They don’t need to eat, but they do enjoy oil-based refreshments from time to time. And, they need to be recharged regularly.

The Planet:

The Alottabotz live in a different solar system than ours far, far away; too far for us to travel to, at least with the technology that we currently have—maybe someday in the distant future we’ll get there! If you did go to their planet, the first thing you may notice is that the planet has two moons instead of one. There are robotic trees and plants, birds and bugs. There are many creatures that resemble those here on Earth and others that we just can’t identify—they are truly unique!

What are the Alottabotz like?

Alottabotz are generally happy creatures, but there are a few that like to make trouble. Alottabotz thrive on relationships with family and friends. They have thoughts and feelings much like we do, but they don’t need to worry about illness or injury since they can easily be repaired—that is, if they can find the right part! Timothy Bot is lucky because his Grandpabot can fix just about anything. He has been collecting spare parts for most of his life—you just never know when a random item might come in handy!

Why do they have roads if they can fly?

Not all Alottabotz can fly without a vehicle, and some just prefer to walk or roll to their destination. Their technology is far more advanced than ours and their vehicles are as unique as they are! Some have propellers, some have thrusters, some have magnets that keep them hovering above the road. Imagine if everyone in a community flew wherever they wanted, whenever they wanted. It would be chaos! The roads help to keep the community organized and they definitely decrease the chance of having an accident! Everyone must follow the rules of the road!

Why were there no pets in Timbot’s community?

This is something of a mystery that has yet to be solved. Rumour has it that a previous mayor banned pets by decree. Something serious must have happened for such a drastic measure to be taken. Luckily, a new mayor was elected and Grandpabot, in his glory, put his skills and his Botshop good use and built pets for Timbot and his friends. It wouldn’t have been possible without the help of the community and a bunch of old collected spare parts.

With so many different characters and so many interesting places to explore, the Alottabotz stories could be endless! Let’s see what Lynn comes up with next!
