Dr. Landelbrot is the inventor of the confusionator, which creates Random Events in the hopes of balancing order against chaos in Neopia. He has had many different laboratories in Neopia, the first being in Moltara's water tower, but currently resides in orbit around Neopia on board the spaceship, the Coincidence.
My Random Event machine is malfunctioning. What, you thought Random Events just happened randomly? Pish tosh! Back in the early days of Moltara, I invented a technology to create chaos. Just as Moltara maintains balance with the fiery magma at its core, so too must we balance order with chaos. I took it upon myself to spawn random events, er, randomly. But I couldn't reach enough of the planet from underground, so I was forced to invent a spaceship. From space, I can cause probability vectors to instantiate virtually anywhere on the planet and its surrounding orbital bodies. I laid in a good supply of Cog Stew and Ionised Onions and have been here ever since. Only -- no doubt due to an aspect of chaos theory I haven't been able to interpret yet -- my Random Event machine has, well, stopped.
I certainly hope I can provide some insights! I must admit, my curiosity was piqued after hearing about a strange object that even you weren't familiar with Mira.
A conundrum to be sure! Scintilly and I will begin setting up my equipment now, but it will likely take several days of testing and analysis before I have any concrete results to share!
I'm sorry to say it, but after extensive study and testing, I still can't make heads or tails of it! The physiology of this enigmatic object is so unlike anything from Neopia that my instruments have been unable to deliver any accurate or helpful readings besides the traces of anti-matter they give off.
Wish I could have been more help, but I'll stick around in case I can be of service! Not to mention the fact I am utterly fascinated by those strange objects! I do hope someone can get to bottom of this.
Happy to lend a hand!
This is incredible. Just think about what this could mean for the discoveries of modern-day Neopia? Did these Petpets come from Neopia and adapt to space or the other way around? What would that mean about Neopia's natural Petpets? We have so much to learn from them!
Landelbrot is apparently very old, being present in the early days of Neopia at least one thousand years ago. The Coincidence itself has existed for centuries at least.
Landelbrot's name is likely a reference to the Mandelbrot set.
