Dr. Duck's Biography and KCP history

Dr. Duck is not a normal duck. He knows something. He doesn't talk, but he knows.

Early Life
Duck was born in 1877 in a somewhat rich family in Bedford, Britain. But as soon as his mom died, he fell into trouble. His father had already lost his wife to some illness, and then he suffered a stroke. The next time he came back home, he was no more. So, naturally, Duckie left the house and was adopted by an insane old lady, as his dad was gone. The old woman would tie him up to her bed and turn on a device that produced a very loud bang every hour. At the end of every hour, she would release Duckie and tell him to go to sleep, while she would enjoy the false fireworks. To escape the awful routine, Duckie searched for a new home and finally found one on a ship that was sailing along the ocean. The ship was a funny-looking one, and most of the crew, as Duckie soon discovered, were horrible weirdos. Unfortunately, Duckie wasn't there to enjoy his new home, but he was on the job. He had to deliver a ton of food for the crew, so they could celebrate the night. The very first time, he did it, the food exploded, and made him waste a few precious pounds of his duck food. Luckily, he managed to deliver it, but his boss didn't understand how it could be possible for him to have such a quick delivery time. He punished Duckie by giving him a huge punishment. Every day, he would have to leave the ship and walk a straight path in the desert for a whole day.

In 1895, Mr. Duck went to the United States. He hadn't really done much, other than stay in his mansion and talk with birds. His heritage money was slowly ending, so he wanted to know what was going on. His natural curiosity took him to different places, but as the days passed, he became more and more interested in archeology. In fact, he decided that he wanted to be an archeologist when he grew up, and he was on the way. After the first few years, Mr. Duck had traveled all over the world, and he also became pretty well-known. He also decided that his mother died for a reason, and his mission was to find out the reason. That is why he started traveling to India, Africa, and other countries.

Meeting Leonid Vavilov
In 1906, Mr. Duck first stepped foot on the soil of Imperial Russia. There he met a person named Leonid Vavilov - the person who wanted to invent a device that would be able to make a person immortal. Dr. Duck was very interested in this idea and asked Dr. Vavilov for some of his inventions. Leonid Vavilov responded to him, saying that the only way he could give him the devices, is if Mr. Duck would be his partner in the experiment. Mr. Duck agreed, but not because he wanted to test out the devices. It was much more personal: he simply wanted to know if immortality was possible. He became immortalized, but he didn't know that yet. The machine then broke into thousands of pieces, which depressed Leonid Vavilov a lot. Dr. Vavilov then revealed the fact that his plan was to give the device to his friend - who was known as Alexander Guryanov. Leonid Vavilov then ended his experiments forever and Dr. Duck then never been able to meet Leonid since.

The frozen girl
Dr. Duck then went on to find the reason for the death of his mother. He was sure that it wasn't something ordinary, but rather something otherwordly, - or, perhaps, anomalous. In a village close to Petrograd, he entered a house and found a glass bottle. When he opened it, he discovered that it was full of some liquid. When he took a closer look, he noticed that it was blood. When he then checked the coffin, he discovered a woman's body that looked as if it was frozen. He realized that it was some kind of machine that was used to freeze people. Once the woman's corpse was unfrozen, he then saw that it wasn't a corpse. She was a living, breathing girl, who obviously wasn't frozen from the outside. She didn't have any hair or any other body parts, and she did have strange-looking eyes. All the other people in the room saw her as well. She asked him why she had been brought there, and Dr. Duck said that she was frozen. He then noticed that she was frozen in a position that would make her look like a praying woman. She then explained to Dr. Duck that she was from the East - Russia - which was during the years of Tsarist rule. As he talked, he noticed that she talked about the same things as he did. She didn't seem to know a single Russian word but understood English quite well. He wanted to let his friend Leonid Vavilov know about his discovery but wasn't able to contact him. When Dr. Duck wanted to see the woman, she was never to be found.

WWI
In 1914, Dr. Duck was drafted into the British army to fight in the Great War. When he finally returned to London, he found that his mother's death didn't seem to make him any wiser. He was the same age that he was when he had seen the frozen girl, and he continued to ask himself the same question: Why didn't he receive any answers from the frozen girl? In 1919, he again entered Russia, which then was already Soviet. He tried to find Leonid Vavilov but didn't find him. He only found the Russians who claimed that the doctor had died. He realised that someone else must have been inventing something similar.



Mr. Man
In 1920, Dr. Duck went to Paris. The French were fairly friendly towards Dr. Duck, but he could still feel the icy chill around him, and people were afraid to go near him. He then met a person who called themselves "Mr. Man", and he explained to Dr. Duck that he was working with a certain Denis Grisell, an inventor. Mr. Man also showed Dr. Duck a suit that was about to be made available to people. The suit was able to make one hundred people invisible. It was some kind of armour made from a metal that had appeared in an ancient castle. Once the armour was put on the wearer, he could move around without anyone else being able to see him. Of course, the armour was expensive - and it was sold only to persons who were extraordinarily strong or were tall or otherwise looked exceptional.

Dr. Markus and Dr. Grisell
Dr. Duck, hasn't succeeded in his mission so far, and was still not willing to give up. He contacted another inventor who was known as Dr. Markus. They both went to Vienna in order to meet Grisell. Dr. Duck also met Mr. Man again. Dr. Duck entered Grisell's laboratory and saw a large, flying machine sitting on the floor. He also saw other devices that were able to transform the appearance of objects or people. It was obvious that Grisell was trying to invent a form of teleportation. He showed Dr. Duck a tool that was able to freeze objects or people. Mr. Duck asked Dr. Grisell if he knew anything about the girl in the Russian village. Grisell explained that he knew nothing about the girl, although he was also interested in her story.

The KCP Foundation foundation
In 1924, Mr. Duck, Dr. Grisel, and Dr. Markus formed a foundation that would research anomalous objects, inventions, and other things that they might find interesting. It was called "The KCP Foundation". In 1926, he was able to contact Dr. Vavilov again - they then met in Saint Petersburg, where he met Leonid - who was then already a retired army officer, and his young wife - Zinaida. Duck offered Mr. Vavilov a position in his foundation, but he refused. He then said, that if he ever has a child, he wants them to work in the KCP foundation, which Dr. Duck took into consideration.

Mr. Henderson's invention and the death of Mr. Grisell
In 1928, they discovered a book - it mostly contained some gibberish, but it also mentioned some weird things - the year 1984, the Antichrist, and some other things. They then discovered several other interesting objects. Dr. Grisell then invented a device, which is designed to be placed in a person's mouth and to do what you tell it to do. Unfortunately, when testing the device, Dr. Grisell died. This had a huge impact on Dr. Duck, so he decided that such inventions should be contained and researched in special containment procedures. At the end of the 20s, Dr. Duck traveled to America in order to study the U.S. Patent system. It is here, that Dr. Duck met another engineer called George R. Henderson, who invented something called "Aurora". Aurora is a magnetic field that can charge certain objects or people. It can be used to control them or to even absorb some of their qualities. Dr. Duck then asked Mr. Henderson if he wants to donate this device to the KCP foundation, as it was very dangerous. Mr. Henderson did not agree. Mr. Duck and Mr. Henderson then argued. The disagreement led to a vicious, aggressive fight, that ended with Mr. Henderson being hospitalised and the invention being destroyed.

At the end of the 30s, Duck once again tried to contact Vavilov. This time, they met in Paris. Dr. Duck gave him a complete tour of the Foundation, while he pointed out the things that were not necessary. They then discussed the different theories that Dr. Duck had been investigating. While Duck was very fascinated by this, he was also a little frustrated that Vavilov seemed to be very disappointed in the results of his research. At the end of the meeting, Dr. Duck once again invited Leonid Vavilov to work at his foundation, but he refused. Leonid, however, still wanted to help Mr. Duck, so he offered his sponsorship of the KCP foundation using the money that his wife's father had left to them, should Duck want to continue his research. Mr. Duck accepted.



Mr. Coblentz
In 1931, a man came to the foundation named Mr. Coblentz. He introduced himself as an economist, and he explained that he was very interested in Dr. Duck and the KCP foundation. He told Dr. Duck that he could win the Nobel prize if he managed to clone a mammoth - that's right, a mammoth. Duck was intrigued. He asked why someone would want to clone a mammoth, but Coblentz said that there is a big demand for mammoth products and that the profits from its clone-making industry would be immense. Dr. Duck quickly accepted, and Mr. Coblentz sent him a brief explanation of how to go about his research.

The T.H.E.M.
In February 1934, Dr. Duck presented to the board his proposal. He was going to try to clone a mammoth from a frozen skeleton that had recently been discovered. This skeleton was extremely well-preserved. When it thawed, the mammoth would be all his. Once the mammoth was a living thing, Mr. Duck would then take it to Russia. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. One of the activists of the underground organization called "The T.H.E.M." shot Dr. Markus while he was presenting the invention, injuring him badly. Mr. Coblentz was accused as the shooter and he fled. The board quickly revoked Duck's work and turned to a different person to figure out the problem.

The death of Dr. Markus
By the year 1940, the foundation has expanded quite considerably. There were more than a 100 of various people working in the KCP Foundation. But in 1942, Mr. Leonid Vavilov was captured by the germans. Duck was devastated. He tried to contact all his contacts but it became clear that there wasn't anything that he could do. His attempts failed. Even worse, Mr. Markus was killed during one of the bombardments, leaving his wife and his son - Markus V.D. alone. Duck promised to take care of them using the foundation's funds, but was still depressed after it was clear there wasn't anything that he could do for Leonid.

Mr. Coblentz 2: the electric boogaloo
Meanwhile, Mr. Coblentz has returned. He wanted to kill Mr. Duck. Dr. Duck, however, was ready for him. He managed to disarm him and he managed to knock him out with a powerful punch. Coblentz's gun fell from his hands and Duck picked it up. Dr. Duck then killed him. The day after, Mr. Duck was informed about a meeting regarding the discovery of a very strange artifact. He decided to visit it, but before leaving, he decided to go and see the family of Markus V.D. and tell them about Coblentz's death. He also decided to invite them to the meeting. At the meeting, the foundation was notified that the Germans had found the location of some kind of artifact that was supposedly important to Mr. Coblentz. The head of the foundation decided to organize a new expedition to Germany, hoping that they would be able to find what was it. The expedition was set to depart.

On the evening of August 4, 1942, Duck sent the expedition off. The party consisted of Duck, Dr. Squeaky, 2 drunks, 2 brothers, a truck driver, and a cook. The party arrived in Germany safely. However, when they arrived, the German secret service caught them. They were all taken away and most of the crew was killed. The rest of the party was kept imprisoned. They were then subjected to intense interrogations and were shot. Dr. Squeaky was able to convince the German secret service that they were simply tourists, who just happened to go to Germany. They were put on trial and Dr. Duck was sentenced to death. The rest of the party was killed shortly after.

Duck, being immortal, of course, survived the execution. However, he got the distinct feeling that the German secret service was involved in the invention of a second version of Aurora. He decided that he had to go back to Russia. When he arrived, he found out that Dr. Vavilov has escaped the concentration camp and was now residing in Stalingrad. Duck decided to go and see him. He managed to escape the NKVD but was eventually caught and put into a detention camp. Once Duck was captured, Dr. Vavilov helped him to escape using his connections. They then discussed Germany's plan on reconstructing the Aurora. Vavilov decided that it should be destroyed. Duck agreed.

The Podval
However, in the year 1944, they would discover something even worse. The Podval. What was this thing? It was actually an Aurora prototype, made by Germans who were to experiment with it. And now they were set to try it on the entire world. They already tried it on a small island in the middle of the ocean. It almost wiped it out. The Germans wanted to take over the world. They considered it to be a great achievement for German intelligence. However, before the KCP Foundation was even able to do anything, The T.H.E.M stole The Podval and formed an underground organisation based on the apocalyptic beliefs of its members. It was called "Podval Crisis Logistics", or, simply, the PCL

While the war was ending, Dr. Duck invested heavily in the military development of the KCP foundation in order to fight the PCL, who were growing in power. He hired a dedicated logistics agent, named Anatoly Agallow. Dr. Duck was worried about the PCL, and he wanted to use Anatoly's help to destroy them. However, it seemed that there were too many agents working for the PCL. He himself was quite worried and decided to hire an unknown agent from Georgia, who would help to strengthen the KCP foundation in order to defend itself against the PCL. At some point in 1945, Anatoly suggested that there should be a major crackdown on the PCL agents. In order to prevent an alien attack on Earth, they needed to be destroyed. Of course, he knew about the Aurora, but there was still time to use it as a weapon.

Leonid Vavilov's death and the agents network
In the year 1946, Dr. Leonid Vavilov died of a heart attack. Dr. Duck promised Zinaida and her 1-year-old son that the Foundation would take care of them. Meanwhile, The KCP Foundation had to think of a way to fight back PCL. They were going to propose an alliance with the newly established United Nations, which would be in power for two years. The UN could then take control and defeat the PCL before it was too late. However, things were about to change for Duck and his team. A few days later, in July 1946, a man named Wilson Frost, an American associate of the PCL, broke into the KCP headquarters. The impostor was a part of a network of agents who were led by the PCL. In order to combat them, Duck would need to work together with Frost.

This revelation caused serious problems for The KCP Foundation. They knew that Frost was from the PCL. They needed a double agent to get an edge. Frost offered to reveal all the information he had on the Aurora to Duck in exchange for some services by the KCP. This has helped KCP to develop their own network of spies and double agents. This would eventually help them stop the PCL plan for the destruction of the world. Unfortunately, Frost's network wasn't always completely reliable. There were times when the KCP was caught off guard and caused Frost's networks to fail.

The Podval strikes
It seemed like Duck was going to have to wait a while longer before he would be able to receive the information that he so badly needed. But that was until 1965 when a young man who attended a party named Stas Karpoŭc discovered something amazing. It was an abandoned water gun. He also came across a journal in a nearby building. As Stas read the journal, he immediately recognized its importance. It was written by a Russian doctor, Vavilov. In this journal, Vavilov had written an account of an experiment he had conducted in 1925. The doctor had discovered an alien component in the water. He concluded that aliens were living on the planet Jupiter, although his exact location and reasons for his research were never explained. The experiment on the water gave a great insight into the nature of the Aurora. He believed that it was an abnormal, light emission by-product that had been produced by some kind of advanced propulsion mechanism.

After reading this, Stas knew that his name was connected with the Aurora. He immediately contacted Dr. Duck, who provided him with the necessary documents to prove his connection. This was an important breakthrough for The KCP Foundation. However, it was too late. In the October of 1966, the PCL successfully used the Aurora, creating a small wormhole, from which a disease that was spreading thru the ground came out. It was turning the ground red, petrifying it, and killing whatever was on or in it. It was called the Podval. Most of the KCP resources were then redirected to contain the Podval.
