In a Cyber Space of tensioned peace, long lives the Overlord of all BOTs - [BOT Overlord]Xenia. Xenia is never seen in-game, however, is referenced periodically in the game. Xenia is known by the BOTs as nothing less than an immortal God. During the first Virus invasion, Xenia was the first among the BOTs to rally an assault force to combat the Viruses head-on. Before Sector battles, there was just work. The BOTs kept the Sectors clean of corrupt data and quarantined all Viruses to halt any possibility of war.
When Cyber Space expanded, Sectors became abandoned and piled up with corrupted data. These became the breeding grounds for the first Virus invasion, and from this came the great war to protect Cyber Space. For the first time the BOTs had begun to take on powerful gear to prepare for battle. Xenia lead his squad into the depths of the Sectors, eliminating the viruses everywhere he went. Virus numbers dwindled slowly, so all Xenia could do was push further and further to the sources. Xenia was the first BOT to find the Hackenn Core, and with his squad he managed to significantly damage stability of Viruses everywhere. Xenia had come to the end, and was prepared to go the rest of the way for Cyber Space. A colossal battle between the Virus Overlord [Combat Chief]Xabaras and Xenia brought the Hackenn Core to ruin, and ultimately Xabaras was defeated. Xenia was damaged greatly by the battle and eventually fell to the surrounding viruses who were infinite. Thanks to the efforts of several task forces of the BOTs, Xenia was extracted from the Hackenn Core. The weakened Xabaras did what he could to seal off the Hackenn Core, ensuring his safety from the BOTs in his damaged state.
Xabaras continues to rebuild his Virus army with his vast amounts of corrupted data and with all the Sectors under his control. As they are routinely cleansed by the BOTs who are now trained for elite combat, he cannot reclaim his former legacy. Xenia saved the BOTs from the Viruses, and was announced as the savior of Cyber Space. He had done what no one else could do, and lived. However the war took its toll on Xenia, and he now resides in the once again peaceful territories of Cyber Space as the BOT Overlord. [BOT Overlord]Xenia has trained many BOTs and built the first BOTS military of all time to ensure no Viruses could ever overthrow Cyber Space again. Among his Elites is the White Knight, who through great dedication and fervor was granted the title of High Commander of the Winged Army.
Though Cyber Space is often at peace, there is word of an upcoming attack from the Viruses - a grunt in White Knight's Winged Army discovered plans stolen from a top secret location on the outskirts of Cyber Space - the Trojan Isles, home of the Viruses, lead under [Combat Chief]Xabaras.
In preparation, [BOT Overlord]Xenia ordered new troops be forcefully trained under the Winged Army, in defense of Cyber Space. In addition to ordering new troops, he also demanded some Elite members of the Winged Army be trained to watch over, and discipline those deemed "unfit" or "untrusted" by the Winged Army, for times of War calls for desperation. In complete loyalty, the White Knight agreed, and this he did...
The Winged Army is a consolidated, long-standing Army who enforces the laws of Cyber Space, designed and executed by [BOT Overlord]Xenia. Lead by [High Commander]White Knight and his General, Scourge, they fight for justice and peace, to the will of their High BOT Overlord. Although [General]Scourge is equal in power to [High Commander]White Knight, he has remained in his position as General mostly for his lust for power. He often has problems with [High Commander]White Knight's leadership and states he could do a better job in his position. Nonetheless he is a faithful servant of [BOT Overlord]Xenia, regardless of his hate for [High Commander]White Knight and the Winged Army.
The Winged Army is the bread & butter of [BOT Overlord]Xenia's forces. They are fanatic servants to [BOT Overlord]Xenia and carry out his will to their death, for they believe it is better to die for Xenia than to live for themselves. To this extent, they began forcefully taking in BOTs of all types around Cyber Space. For those who were already High Generals in the Winged Army, they were trained to new, Elite levels by the tops (including the great White Knight himself) of Cyber Space. Given the legal power to...discipline...those deemed unworthy of fighting as a Knight of the Winged Army, these Elite Generals tread heavily to prepare those who are worthy -- and "rid" the Great Army of those unworthy.
But with such power comes corruption. The Elites began allowing personal feuds cloud their judgement, punishing unjustly those who have the most loyalty to [BOT Overlord]Xenia and [High Commander]White Knight. From the outside, this corruption was noticeable and unbearable -- hatred ensued towards the Winged Army for their treatment of forced warriors, and soon began to fight off those who have come for the devestating draft. On the inside, the BOTs in high positions could recognize the corruption. [General]Scourge demanded something be done, but [High Commander]White Knight justified it as the Overlords will. In hatred and spite, [General]Scourge left the Winged Army in hopes of ending the corruption by training BOTs of their own of free will, promising retreat against the Winged Army, to fight the Viruses off himself.
[High Commander]White Knight was extremely against the idea, and demanded he return to the Winged Army as to the High Overlords request. In response, now High Commander of his own army, [High Commander]Scourge destroyed multiple of the Winged Army's Elites, warning of the coming destruction to ensue if he tries to stop him. With this, the Swarm was formed - refugees and opposers of the once Great Army. Seeking help from [BOT Overlord]Xenia, [High Commander]White Knight requested the destruction of the rebellious Swarming Legion. In disgust of such treason, yet with the current situation, [Bot Overlord]Xenia stripped [High Commander]Scourge of his official title in the Winged Army, but requested they refrain from fighting whilst the Virus Invasion is but a small distance away. While [High Commander]White Knight was strongly against this declaration, he bowed for his Overlord.
Knowing the High Overlords decision, [High Commander]Scourge continued to build his numbers. He allowed for the BOTs to train with either the Winged Army or himself, and continued to destroy the forces of the Winged Army, fueled by the now hatred for the "once-justice-serving" Army he once served, now overcome by power granted by the "corrupted-by-war" Highlord. To Scourge, he has concluded that he was right about [High Commander]White Knight. [High Commander]White Knight lead the Winged Army into corruption, and failed to reveal to [BOT Overlord]Xenia the error of his forceful drafting.
