P-body

ILikePi: Undo revision 32198 by Flashlight the Overlooked (talk) - P-body is of masculine programming; it is talked about in the commentary

{{Quotation|'''GLaDOS'''|Blue! Orange has always been my favorite.|sound=GLaDOS_mp_coop_rat_mazedeath02.wav}}
'''P-body''', [[Atlas]]' tall and wiry partner in crime, is one of the two bots [[GLaDOS]] built for the [[Co-op|Cooperative Testing Initiative]] in ''Portal 2'', which was devised to phase out human testing. P-body has an orange eye, but his eye was red in early designs. GLaDOS created the testing initiative after {{spoiler|[[Chell]] killed her the first time, during ''Portal''}}. Along with Atlas, the two bots are pitted against a series of tests built by GLaDOS herself, utilizing the many different aspects encountered by Chell in single-player.

Both P-body and Atlas are voiced by [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0048389/ Dee Bradley Baker].

{{spoiler text|During the final phases of testing, GLaDOS reveals that, while the Cooperative Testing Initiative has its uses, she needs human testing for science, not robots. GLaDOS reveals that there are humans locked away, deep within the ancient Aperture facilities. There the bots will be tasked with navigating the old test chambers and unlock the massive vault containing the humans, seemingly kept in place by some form of cryogenic storage. By doing this, they 'save science.'}}

== Trivia ==
* P-body appears momentarily in the single player mode. {{Spoiler text|Upon arriving in [[Wheatley|Wheatley's]] Test Chamber where he "makes the exit", P-body can be seen in the newly created area watching the player, before panicking and running through the exit.}}

=== Edgeless Safety Cube ===
