An unseen character in the single-player campaign of ''[[Portal 2]]'', '''Caroline''' was the personal assistant to former [[Aperture Science]] CEO [[Cave Johnson]], until later becoming his successor. Not much is known about her character, as she is heard at one point, briefly, through a small portion of Cave Johnson's prerecorded audio messages.

She is also mentioned in Chapter 5, "The Escape," when the player picsk up the [[Oracle Turret]] on the second conveyor belt.


From the recordings, it is clear Cave Johnson holds her in high regard, remarking that "she's the backbone of this facility". {{spoiler|Johnson later appointed her as his successor as one of his dying wishes.}}

She is also mentioned in chapter 5, "The Escape," when you pick up the turret on the second conveyor belt that says "I'm different." "Prometheus was punished by the gods for giving the gift of knowledge to man. he was cast into the bowl of the earth and pecked by birds." "It won't be enough." "The answer is beneath us." "Her name is Caroline." "Remember that!" "That's all I can say." Then the turret goes in a loop of saying, "Thank you!"


{{spoiler|Although the amount of time she became CEO is unknown, it is clear that Johnson had praised her enough to have her essence extracted into a [[Cores#Central Core|core]] to oversee the Facility's operations, the core of which became [[GLaDOS]].}}
