2X-NM, pronounced Tooexx-ennam, began his existence as an assassin droid within the Metropolis Razer organization. However, his purpose took a dramatic turn when Mother repurposed him for culinary duties in her space diner, Mother's. This involved swapping out his blaster for a spatula and overwriting his original code with a collection of delicious recipes. Despite this transformation, he retained a surprising aptitude for handling Ginsu Knives, proving capable of defending the diner when necessary.
