As the name implies, each core has its own unique personality and behavior, which can be incorporated into the central core when they are physically attached to it. Most cores were unneeded and deactivated. {{spoiler|These were later reactivated after the destruction of GLaDOS in ''Portal''.}}

{{spoiler text|During the conflict with GLaDOS in ''Portal'', whenever [[Chell]] would drop a personality core into the [[Emergency Intelligence Incinerator|incinerator]], not only did GLaDOS experience pain each time one was destroyed, she also began to lose some of her reinforced prominent personality traits. These include her references to [[cake]], and her moral values, which resulted in a much stronger desire to kill Chell.}}

The general form of a personality core is a large, spherical construct roughly a foot in diameter resembling an eyeball, containing sensors (with the "eye" presumably being the core's camera), two handles (possibly dating from when humans had to transport and handle them manually), and other equipment, such as ports to hold them onto a security rail for them to move on, or to plug into the central computer. The cores in ''Portal 2'' also have eyelids.
人格コアは基本的に、直径約1フィート(約30㎝)の眼球に似た球体の装置で、センサー(”目”はおそらくカメラ)、ハンドル2本(おそらく手動で運搬・処理する必要があった頃の名残)、その他の部品(安全レールに取り付けて移動する為および中枢コンピュータとやり取りする為の連結部分)を搭載しています。''Portal 2'' に登場するコアには瞼があります。

The '''central core''' is the highest rank of all Aperture Science Personality Cores in the Enrichment Center, given to the core hardwired into the enormous robotic body in the Central AI Chamber.
'''中枢コア'''は研究施設内に存在する、全てのアパチャー・サイエンス人工人格装置の中で最高位のコアであり、中枢AIチャンバー内の巨大なロボットボディに元々備わっているコアに与えられる階級です。


A central core has the power to control and regulate the entire Enrichment Center, including the camera feeds, test chamber assembly and storage, turret production lines, and neurotoxin.
中枢コアはテストの監視、テストチェンバーの組み立てと保管、タレットの製造、神経毒の管理など研究施設の全体を管理・調整しています。


{{spoiler|During the events of ''Portal 2'', it becomes apparent that any form of personality core would be more than qualified to be hardwired into the mainframe to become a central core. This is a feature preset by Aperture as a means of replacing corrupted central AI; and if the central core happens to disagree with their impeachment, a Stalemate Resolution Associate will have to force the replacement procedure.}}  
{{spoiler|''Portal 2'' のイベントを通して、どの人格コアもメインフレームに接続して中枢コアになれる資格を持っていることが明らかにされます。これは破損した中枢AIを交換する手段として、アパチャーサイエンス社があらかじめ搭載した機能であり、中枢コアが弾劾を拒否した場合、こう着状態解除要員が強制的に交換を行う必要があります。}}  


[[GLaDOS]], who was designed with the sole purpose of being the central core herself, has her own unique shape that is quite different from the other personality cores, with an oblong white "body", black "face", and a yellow "eye". {{Spoiler|Her "eye" appears to contain her identity, made clear when it was stuck into a potato during the events of ''Portal 2''.}}
[[GLaDOS/ja|GLaDOS]]は中枢コアになるべく設計されたコアの為、長方形の白い”胴体”、黒い”顔”、黄色の”目”といった、他の人格コアとはだいぶ異なる特徴的な外見を持っています。{{Spoiler|''Portal 2'' のイベントでGLaDOSがジャガイモに組み込まれてしまった際に、彼女の”目”は彼女自身のアイデンティティであることが分かります。}}

The '''morality core''' is one of the more important cores attached on GLaDOS in ''Portal''. It is a core with a purple "eye" and two dots just beneath it. {{spoiler|It was installed onto GLaDOS sometime before GLaDOS awakened Chell, in order to prevent her from filling the Enrichment Center with [[neurotoxin]].}}  
''Portal'' において、'''道徳コア'''はGLaDOSに装着されているコアの中でも特に重要なコアです。紫色の""を持ち、目の周りに2つの点があります。{{spoiler|このコアはGLaDOSがチェルに起こされる少し前に、GLaDOSが研究センター内を[[neurotoxin/ja|神経毒]]で充満させてしまうのを防ぐために開発されました。}}


{{spoiler|It also seems to be what allows GLaDOS to keep her weapons under control, as she stated that she was unable to deactivate her [[Turrets#Rocket Turret|rocket turret]] once the core was incinerated.}}  
{{spoiler|またGLaDOSが、道徳コアが焼却処分されると[[Turrets/ja#Rocket Turret|強化タレット]]を機能停止できなくなると述べていた事から、このコアにはGLaDOSの武力行使を制御する役目もあったと思われます。}}  


{{spoiler|It is the first core collected and incinerated by Chell, which causes GLaDOS to begin losing her moral traits and once again start filling the room with neurotoxin.}} Unlike other cores, and much like Chell, the morality core is mute. {{spoiler|The disposal of this core is reflected in GLaDOS' apathetic attitude and utter disregard for life at the end of ''Portal'' and prevalent in ''Portal 2'', though how much of this was under the core's control is uncertain due to the resurfacing of these emotions in GLaDOS after re-discovering her Genetic Lifeform component: [[Caroline]].}}
{{spoiler|GLaDOSが道徳心を失い、再び部屋に神経毒を噴出し始めてしまった原因となるこのコアこそが、チェルが一番最初に回収し、焼却したコアなのです。}}他のコアと異なり、そしてチェルと同じように、道徳コアが何か喋ることはありません。{{spoiler|このコアの処分は ''Portal'' 終盤のGLaDOSの、生命に対するあまりにも無関心でないがしろな態度に反映されており、''Portal 2'' においても頻繁に見られます。GLaDOSが自身のGenetic Lifeform component(遺伝子型生命体コンポーネント/[[Caroline/ja|キャロライン]])を再発見した際に再びこの態度を見せるため、どのくらいコアの制御下にあったかは明らかにされていません。}}

Due to technical difficulties over time, a core may be detected as a '''corrupted core''' and would be subject to disposal. However, if the corrupted core is the central core, a substitute core must be present in a core receptacle in order to initiate a core transfer. Central core corruption will not be detected if another core is not present. This is because other cores would not usually be present, except for core transfer. Once a substitute core is found, both cores must agree or disagree on the core transfer procedure. If one agrees while the other disagrees, the transfer process cannot occur unless a Stalemate Resolution Associate is present in order to press the stalemate resolution button, which will initiate the core transfer process once the Associate has returned to the Central Chamber.

Rick, the Adventure Sphere


さっき私から落ちていったものを見ましたか?あれは何だったのですか?驚くことではありませんが... 今まで見たことがありません。
GLaDOS

コア(別称スフィア人格コア/スフィアアパチャー・サイエンス人工人格装置とも)は人工知能を搭載させる為に開発された装置で、それ自身が感情表現をするのが特徴です。コアは基本的に球状装置、入力装置の2種類に分けられます。球状コアは標準型であり、人格コア単体や Atlas 等のロボットの本体として使用されます。それに対し入力型コアは楕円形状でタレットP-Body などの本体に使用されます。アパチャー・サイエンス社のコンピューター支援型改良センター内において、手足のない球状コアは基本的に管理レールに取り付けられています。

コアの球状の外見は、 Portal の終盤や Portal 2 のシングルプレイヤーモードの終盤で存分に見ることができます。

用途

アパチャー・サイエンス社の技術者に開発されたGLaDOSは最も初期の人格コアとして知られており、研究施設内の管理を担うよう設計されました。次に開発されたコアは、GLaDOSの異常行動(テストチェンバー内や施設の重要な場所を神経毒で充満させるなど)を制御するため、GLaDOSの潜在意識と統合し人格を変化させるように設計されたものでした。

通常は球状ですが、これらはより単純な形に設計されています。アパチャーサイエンス社の研究施設内のロボットはほとんどがAtlas(包囲型コア)、P-Body(入力型コア)、タレット(同じく入力型コア)のように人格コアをベースにしていますが、GLaDOS用に開発されたコアはこれらと対照的です。

Portal のイベント後、研究施設の悪化を防ぐ為に、保管されていた未使用(機能停止)のコアが自動的に再稼働させられていることが判明しました。 切羽詰まった状況下ではこのコアを補正することができず、失敗に終わっています。コアによっては故障するものも存在します。原因は不明ですが、GLaDOSのように実在の人格をベースにしたコアがあったとするならば、AIに侵されて正気を失った人格が破損を引き起こした為と推測できます。

人格コア

その名前の通り、どのコアもそれぞれに個性と習性があり、中枢コアに物理的に接続することでそれを組み込むことができます。ほとんどのコアは機能停止されており使われていません。後にこれらのコアは Portal にてGLaDOSを破壊した後に再稼働されます。

Portal でのGLaDOSとの対峙において、チェルが人格コアを緊急知能焼却炉に落として破壊するたびにGLaDOSは苦しみに悶えるだけでなく、同時に自身が強化した人格コアの特性を失っていきます。例えば ケーキの話題や道徳的な価値観などを失うことによって、チェルを殺したいという願望がより強く呼び起こされていきます。

人格コアは基本的に、直径約1フィート(約30㎝)の眼球に似た球体の装置で、センサー(”目”はおそらくカメラ)、ハンドル2本(おそらく手動で運搬・処理する必要があった頃の名残)、その他の部品(安全レールに取り付けて移動する為および中枢コンピュータとやり取りする為の連結部分)を搭載しています。Portal 2 に登場するコアには瞼があります。

中枢コア

もっと詳しく: GLaDOS
GLaDOS, a central core.

中枢コアは研究施設内に存在する、全てのアパチャー・サイエンス人工人格装置の中で最高位のコアであり、中枢AIチャンバー内の巨大なロボットボディに元々備わっているコアに与えられる階級です。

中枢コアはテストの監視、テストチェンバーの組み立てと保管、タレットの製造、神経毒の管理など研究施設の全体を管理・調整しています。

Portal 2 のイベントを通して、どの人格コアもメインフレームに接続して中枢コアになれる資格を持っていることが明らかにされます。これは破損した中枢AIを交換する手段として、アパチャーサイエンス社があらかじめ搭載した機能であり、中枢コアが弾劾を拒否した場合、こう着状態解除要員が強制的に交換を行う必要があります。

GLaDOSは中枢コアになるべく設計されたコアの為、長方形の白い”胴体”、黒い”顔”、黄色の”目”といった、他の人格コアとはだいぶ異なる特徴的な外見を持っています。Portal 2 のイベントでGLaDOSがジャガイモに組み込まれてしまった際に、彼女の”目”は彼女自身のアイデンティティであることが分かります。

道徳コア

もっと詳しく: 道徳コア
Morality Core

Portal において、道徳コアはGLaDOSに装着されているコアの中でも特に重要なコアです。紫色の"目"を持ち、目の周りに2つの点があります。このコアはGLaDOSがチェルに起こされる少し前に、GLaDOSが研究センター内を神経毒で充満させてしまうのを防ぐために開発されました。

またGLaDOSが、道徳コアが焼却処分されると強化タレットを機能停止できなくなると述べていた事から、このコアにはGLaDOSの武力行使を制御する役目もあったと思われます。

GLaDOSが道徳心を失い、再び部屋に神経毒を噴出し始めてしまった原因となるこのコアこそが、チェルが一番最初に回収し、焼却したコアなのです。他のコアと異なり、そしてチェルと同じように、道徳コアが何か喋ることはありません。このコアの処分は Portal 終盤のGLaDOSの、生命に対するあまりにも無関心でないがしろな態度に反映されており、Portal 2 においても頻繁に見られます。GLaDOSが自身のGenetic Lifeform component(遺伝子型生命体コンポーネント/キャロライン)を再発見した際に再びこの態度を見せるため、どのくらいコアの制御下にあったかは明らかにされていません。

好奇心コア

もっと詳しく: 好奇心コア
Curiosity core
ほら、あれを見て!違います、あれです。
好奇心コア

The second core attached to GLaDOS is the curiosity core. It is the core with an orange "eye" and four dots beneath it. It has a tendency to constantly ask questions, ranging from its surroundings to Chell, to where it is going.

情報コア

もっと詳しく: 情報コア
Intelligence core
魚型有機化合物および沈殿物型沈殿物。
情報コア

GLaDOS' third core, the intelligence core, (referred to as the "crazy core" in the subtitles), has a blue "eye" with a huge pupil with six dots beneath it. It rambles on about an odd recipe for a rather unique kind of cake, which is the cake shown before the end credits of Portal. GLaDOS does not make references to Cake in Portal 2, and it is presumed that this is because the core was destroyed in Portal.

怒りコア

Anger core
もっと詳しく: 怒りコア
*唸り声* *歯ぎしり* *唸り声*
怒りコア

The last core attached to GLaDOS is the anger core. It has a red "eye" with eight dots beneath it. It is also referred to as the "emotion core" and the "aggressive core". Rather than speak, the Core snarls and growls ferociously at Chell. (These snarls and growls were later used in Valve's game Left 4 Dead, which featured the same actor, Mike Patton, as the infected.) Once Chell puts the anger core into the incinerator, GLaDOS begins to implode. In Portal 2, GLaDOS, due to the loss of this core, sounds very mellow, and barely expresses any emotional indications of hostility; she remains resentful over her attempted destruction and makes snarky comments towards Chell while being tested early in the game.

知能低下コア

もっと詳しく: ウィートリー
Wheatley
解いてから 1 分、いや 1 分すらたってないのにもう忘れちまったのか?
ウィートリー

The final antagonist of the single-player campaign in Portal 2, Wheatley, also known as the Intelligence Dampening Sphere, is portrayed as bumbling, chatty, desperate when things did not catch up to his expectations, and often hesitant. He is the first character to have interacted with Chell in the game, and is one of many cores seen awakening at the end of Portal.

It was not long before it was revealed by GLaDOS that Wheatley was originally designed by the Aperture Science technicians with the express purpose of rendering GLaDOS less dangerous during her initial activation, via attaching Wheatley onto her to generate an infinite stream of flawed suggestions to distract her.

It was thought that this would prevent her from killing the scientists when activated and improve the operations of the facility. According to GLaDOS, Wheatley is "the product of the greatest minds of a generation working together with the express purpose of building the dumbest moron who ever lived".

崩壊コア

崩壊したコアです! これは使えます。
GLaDOS

Due to technical difficulties over time, a core may be detected as a corrupted core and would be subject to disposal. However, if the corrupted core is the central core, a substitute core must be present in a core receptacle in order to initiate a core transfer. Central core corruption will not be detected if another core is not present. This is because other cores would not usually be present, except for core transfer. Once a substitute core is found, both cores must agree or disagree on the core transfer procedure. If one agrees while the other disagrees, the transfer process cannot occur unless a Stalemate Resolution Associate is present in order to press the stalemate resolution button, which will initiate the core transfer process once the Associate has returned to the Central Chamber.

During the fight against Wheatley in Portal 2, GLaDOS/PotatOS summons three corrupted cores to Chell for her to attach to Wheatley in order to make him corrupt enough to initiate another core transfer procedure.

All three Corrupted Cores are voiced by Nolan North. Each of their corruption levels is 25%, as indicated according to the Announcer when they are attached to Wheatley. And because the corruption level was already at 25% when the final fight with Wheatley started, it may be surmised that Wheatley himself is also a Corrupted Core.

GLaDOS was 80% corrupt when she was replaced in the game by Wheatley. Due to her behavior change after being put in the potato and then "reinstalled" at the end of Portal 2, it may be surmised that this reduced her own corruption to 0%. This change in GLaDOS (as well as Wheatley's behavior) further indicates that when a core is corrupt, it becomes irrational, in other words, "crazy" or "insane" by human standards, and even paranoid and homicidal.

Space Sphere
宇宙ーーーッ!
宇宙コア

The Space Sphere is one of three active, corrupted cores.(referred to as core 1 in subtitles) It speaks rapidly and possesses an unhealthy obsession with space. Its key personality trait is its often-repeated desire to travel to outer space. It finally gets to live its dream of going to space when it is sucked through the portal that connects the remaining blob of conversion gel to the surface of the moon. The Final Hours of Portal 2 reveals Valve's inspiration for the Space Core: an Oregon Coast Aquarium ad with a goldfish rapidly and repeatedly humming, blurting, and stating that he would like to go to the aquarium, much like the Space Core does. The Space Sphere is stuck in space, and is later known for getting bored of space and wanting to back home.

The second corrupted core, the Adventure Sphere (or as he calls himself, Rick) speaks like a stereotypical tough guy. Upon seeing Chell, he starts to swoon over her. He even tries (unsuccessfully) to convince Chell to take a "lady break" while he deals with Wheatley. He is the first core to be sucked into space as after shooting a portal on the moon if one looks closely, they can see Rick fly off of Wheatley and into space.

The Fact Sphere is the third corrupted core.(Referred to as core 3 in subtitles.)It constantly states several random, twisted, and not entirely true "facts" related to history, the current situation, as well as subjective facts about how amazing and handsome it is. The Fact Sphere is the only core that managed to stay attached to Wheatley during the ending cutscene where Chell shoots a portal on the moon but is unseen.

The following expresses cores that serve a different purpose altogether: cores that are neither corrupted nor are personality cores.

"Thank you for assuming the party escort submission position."
Party Escort Bot

During the events of Portal, GLaDOS refers to the Party Associate after failing her attempt to kill Chell at the end of the final test chamber. As Chell did not follow GLaDOS' instructions to "place the device on the ground, then lie on [her] stomach with [her] arms at [her] sides" which was described as the "party escort submission position", it is presumed that the Party Escort Bot was required to travel to the surface in order to retrieve her and "escort her to the party".

Prior to the March 3, 2010 patch, Portal ended with Chell slowly regaining consciousness on the parking lot above the Aperture Science Enrichment Center. Since the patch was added to bridge the gap between Portal and Portal 2, Chell is instead slowly and unwillingly dragged back towards the facility by the unseen Party Escort Bot as it gives thanks to her for "assuming the party escort submission position".

The Party Escort Bot is seen briefly in the Portal 2: Lab Rat comic and was only partially depicted, revealed to be a spherical core-based android with a pink eye and a set of arms.

SteamVR / The Lab

Virtual Reality Assistance and Education Core

The Virtual Reality Assistance and Education Core.
Oh! You're here! Welcome to virtual reality, or VR.
Virtual Reality Assistance and Education Core

The Virtual Reality Assistance and Education Core is introduced in the SteamVR tech demo and guides the player through the virtual reality tutorial. It is very polite and is able to float without any obvious means of propulsion; shortly after finishing its instruction of the player, its battery dies and is immediately picked up by two Bendies driving a golf cart.

The Lab introduced several new personality constructs sent to the player for calibration, voiced by Laura Bailey, Steve Blum, Phil LaMarr, Nolan North, Justin Roiland, Pendleton Ward, and Wally Wingert. They are:

  • Auction Core
  • Big News Core (that ran to get here)
  • Boring Hard-Boiled Core (Wilson)
  • Butter Core
  • By-The-Book Core
  • Calibration Core
  • Climate Change Awareness Core
  • Comfortable Core (that just feels right)
  • Convict Core
  • Emergency Preparedness Core
  • Executive Core
  • Fruit Punch Core
  • Heavy Core
  • Horror Story Core
  • Investigation Core
  • Magic Core
  • Mourning Core
  • Pilot Core
  • Plague Core
  • Respect Core
  • Retirement Core
  • Reverse Psychology Core
  • Rhythm Core
  • Rookie Core (Kelv)
  • Salesman Core (Trevor, from the Work From Home Core Group)
  • Skeptical / Nervous Core
  • Snuggle Core
  • Soup Core
  • Spider Core
  • Supervillain Core
  • Tracer Core
  • Useful Core (that is not a Gateway to Hell)

These cores use a model similar to the original Portal's with no exposed sides (except for one in the back) and a simple design, but with a thicker outline, more detailed eye and multiple different patterns, as well as a crash test logo on the side. The internal mechanism is the main difference, consisting of a sphere with circles of light moving based on how the core speaks.

LEGO Dimensions

Cores act as collectibles in this game, requiring certain characters to do tasks to find them.

An "Amorality Sphere" is featured in this game which carries out functions completely opposite to the Morality Sphere, which also allows GLaDOS to employ dangerous tools (such as electricity) on Batman, Wyldstyle, and Gandalf. It makes its appearance in "The End is Tri," where it is taken from GLaDOS and replaced with an actual Morality Sphere to blackmail her to help the heroes during the final battle. It appears later from a portal that appears after GLaDOS sings, which she is glad to see.

Another core found in Old Aperture claims to be Cave Johnson and pleads for help. Once the player does though, Cave accuses them of "slacking off". The core's eye is also square-shaped compared to other core eyes.

トリビア

  • The bomb model used in Portal 2 is named 'personality_sphere_angry' within the game files, suggesting the Anger core was to make an appearance in the sequel.
    • The bomb model also possesses similar textures and various typical personality core animations that can be viewed in the Model Viewer in the Authoring Tools. These include a stationary animation, a test animation where the core aimlessly looks around, and an angry animation where it twitches violently.
  • In early screenshots released prior to the Portal 2 E3 teaser trailer, the texture of personality cores were yet to receive detailing and minor scratches, as the textures of the plating were matte white. Since then the textures have been greatly improved, and compared to Portal, the Cores from then to the retail version have a wider range of emotions.
  • Poker Night 2 features a bounty price by GLaDOS called the "Paranoia Core," who behaves similarly to the Fact Sphere describing numerous events as well as being paranoid.
  • Where the corrupt cores are first encountered in Portal 2, another core is being held above to illuminate them, moving weakly which confirms it is active. This core never makes another appearance and has no lines. Upon closer inspection inside reveals that it is an Adventure Sphere reskin, with the eye aperture constricted.
  • The morality core has one dot on each side, and it's the first core to be detached and incinerated. The curiosity core has two dots (although on only one side), and it's the second core to be detached. The intelligence core has three dots on each side, and the anger core has four.
