I don't want to scare you, but, I'm an Adventure Sphere. Designed for danger. So, why don't you go ahead and have yourself a little lady break, and I'll just take it from here.
Adventure Sphere to Chell

The Adventure Sphere, who calls himself Rick, is a corrupted personality core of male programming who first appears in Portal 2. He is one of the cores sent by GLaDOS for Chell to attach to Wheatley, to initiate a Core Transfer Procedure.

The Adventure Sphere speaks like a stereotypical "tough guy", spending most of his time boasting about his bravery and lust for danger. Upon seeing Chell, he starts to flirt with her and make increasingly chauvanistic comments. He even tries (but to no avail) to convince Chell to take a "lady break" while he deals with Wheatley himself.

The Adventure Sphere is voiced by Nolan North.

Trivia

  • When GLaDOS sends him up for Chell to attach, he is hanging and swinging on a wire, in a manner not unlike that which would be expected from an archetypal adventurer coming to the rescue.
  • The Adventure Sphere at one point makes referenece to his supposed many black belts in various martial arts, including "Larate". Larate was first mentioned in Team Fortress 2's WAR! Update through a hidden page.
  • In the in-game audio files there is unused dialouge in which he yells at both the space and fact sphere. This could be used for three things. Used when they are in the cage right before the boss fight begins, while on wheatleys body, or he and fact core were going to be in the ending cutscene.
  • When Chell places the final portal on the moon, the Adventure Sphere is sucked out into space before Wheatley and The Space Sphere
