First and foremost he is not a robot. He is a duck in power armor. What follows is a little background on him.
Quintin Gluver was born to Jake and Patricha Gluver. However, unlike his parents he was born without wings. This was obviously a birth defect and the doctors said that he would never live a normal life. His parents, while upset and heartbroken by this news could not bring themselves to put him up for adoption and so they tried to be the best parents they could despite his handicap.
Growing up was hard for Quintin. Even though he was normal in every respect except for his lack of wings he was teased in school mercilessly. This however only spurred him to try harder at everything he did. He began to work out hard and poured over books to get smarter. His teachers found him very likable and remarked how well he did in school to his parents. They were extremely proud of him but always in the back of their minds pitied their young boy.
As a teenager, Quintin continued his workout regimen and was easily much larger than the other ducks he was around. He had begun to gain quite a reputation around town as someone who was a diligent, hardworking individual and despite his handicap always was there to lend a helping hand. He had begun to develop a group of friends that saw him for who he was and not someone to be teased and ridiculed.
Quintin joined up with the military when he was finished with school. At first he was denied due to his lack of wings. He applied time and time again but was turned down each attempt he made. He made one last go at it and providence seemed to be on his side that one day. There was a high ranking military scientist touring the facility and he caught sight of the rather imposing looking duck with no wings. He made some inquiries and found that he had a glowing record and was a spectacular physical specimen. He pulled some strings and got Quintin assigned to him as his assistant.
Quintin at first was not too happy with being singled out and made into a lab assistant but he took a second look at his situation and decided that it did allow him to serve in the military. He decided to make the most of this and put his can do spirit into being the best assistant he could be.
Dr. Drake put the young duck to work immediately but also put him through an extensive physical and mental program to test the boys stamina, strength, decision making skills, reaction under pressure and so much more. He passed with flying colors everything that was put to him. Dr. Drake knew he had found the perfect candidate for his Power Armor program.
This program unfortunately had been prone to accidents and deaths from all the other test subjects. No one could fully utilize this suit of armor and it looked like it was doomed to failure. This was the doctor’s last chance to prove that the suit could be viable. He told Quintin his plans for the suit, the danger involved and the fact that if Quintin managed to make the suit viable he would soon be a hero as his dreams of being an actual soldier would be realized. Quintin immediately jumped at the opportunity.
Dr. Drake put Quintin into the armor and had him move around in it without powering it up. Most of the previous subjects could barely move the armor but Quintin with his impressive strength found that it was pretty easy. He performed some minor exercise moves, did some martial arts kicks and punches and felt he had a pretty feeling about the suit. Dr. Drake then powered up the suit.
Quintin felt the suit instantly take on a different feel. Raw power seemed to surge throughout his entire being and the smallest move was massively over exaggerated. However, he quickly brought the thing under control and began to get used to it. After several days of this practice he was doing his normal routine and work out inside the armor.
He quickly surmised the suits controls and Dr. Drake felt it would be a great idea to test out its weapon systems in front of the military brass. The day came and it was a resounding success. The military brass was very impressed and they quickly wanted to put Quintin through a series of battle drills. He obliged and soon he was being sent across the world to handle missions that proved too dangerous to risk sending in groups of soldiers when he could do the task easily. He took the code name Mech Mallard and has used it ever since.
Such is the story of Mech Mallard. What feats of daring heroism will he accomplish?
Only time will tell!

I'm disappointed... I thought for sure you'd work in the line "took to his time in the military like a duck to water." because I'm shamelessly cheap like that. :)
It's okay, we'll let it fly this time since you may have been winging it. *nods
... and for some reason I have the song "Disco Duck" stuck in my head now dammit.
