Overview

The Prometheus expedition travels to LV-223 seeking humanity's creators. While the human crew sleeps, android David maintains the ship and studies their behaviour, later conducting secret experiments of his own.

ASFR Content

David is a highly human-looking Weyland android whose artificial nature is known to the crew. He demonstrates extreme curiosity and autonomy, secretly infects Holloway with the Engineers' black pathogen and operates complex alien systems. During the confrontation with a surviving Engineer, David is decapitated but remains conscious and functional. Shaw later retrieves his severed head and body so that he can help her escape LV-223.
