THEIA IV

"I am the prototype for a larger system."

- THEIA IV

THEIA IV (セヤ・フォア, Seya Foa), is an artificial intelligence program and supercomputer operator created by the Horizon group, who later defected to the Organisation after the former's defeat during the events of The Shutdown.

Appearance
THEIA IV is technically a computer program and has no real appearance. Being a computer program, it also has no gender, but is referred to as her by Sariel.

During the events of The Shutdown, THEIA IV is housed inside a massive, lead-lined structure shaped like a rectangular cube, supported by large steel structures and kept powered by large snaking power cables. It transfers itself to the Organisation's network after Sariel's defeat.

Name
Theia is the Greek goddess of sight, prophecy, and the one who endows silver and gold their respective lustre and material values. It was likely chosen to be symbolic of THEIA IV's ability to sift through massive amounts of information and compile it, representing the goddess Theia's omnipotent vision.

Personality
"All questions asked must have answers. A question with no answer ceases to be a question. Quirks are a question posed by nature to the human population. I was created to find the answer."

- THEIA IV THEIA IV is pragmatic and direct, and addresses problems directly without taking into consideration emotion or tact; as an AI, it understands these traits, but sees no value in them. As a result, talking to it can quickly become frustrating as its no-holds-barred tendency to detail the worst in people comes off as indirectly antagonistic, despite THEIA IV's primary initiative: to help people.

Abilities
Supercomputing Power: Even while confined to the relatively limited processing power of the Organisation's network, THEIA IV is able to collect, compile, analyse, and make conclusions from data billions of times faster than human users or ordinary data programs, as it was specifically made to do so.

Trivia
