GLaDOS Sarcastic murder robot with a fondness for deadly neurotoxin.
YOU MAY HAVE HEARD OF THIS CHARACTER IF: You're somehow really involved in cutting edge AI development - GLaDOS has actively been keeping her existence a secret ever since the whole "flooding Aperture with neurotoxin" incident (which she is also keeping secret). News of her development before that point may have circulated, considering how much Aperture loves to brag, but there's conspicuous holes in all the information after 1998. YOU MAY KNOW THIS CHARACTER (sort of) IF: You dwell in any capacity on the internet. GLaDOS's current strategy for gathering test subjects is "become the most effective internet predator ever", and she's got accounts on all the major social media sites, plus some minor ones, and even on a few MMORPGs. Her standby alter ego is a robotics grad student at the University of Michigan, and she usually hovers around those kinds of social circles. PLANS & IDEAS FOR THIS CHARACTER: I kind of want her to get at least a couple good acquaintances in before engaging in any large-scale villainy (both genuine Business Partner types and through her fake accounts), and I've got vague caroline plans, but I haven't really thought much farther than that. THINGS YOU'D PREFER TO AVOID: nnnnothing off the top of my head. ANYTHING ELSE: she enjoys her MMO accounts way more than she'll ever admit, and takes them about as seriously B)
