Make up your own Personality Cores!

#1

The cores in the first game were fun, even if they were pretty two dimensional. In the second, that’s not the case. There, the personality cores had personality. Everybody has a favourite, as far as I know.

But I was thinking that maybe three (or four, counting Wheatley) isn’t enough. And I haven’t seen something like this anywhere else, so: Make up your own personality cores. Make sure you describe their eye, behavior, maybe even give them a few quotes?

For instance:
Gordon Core :freeman:
Lime-Green eye, like the Space and Fact cores’. Has a built-in lense with a relatively thick, black frame covering it.
Looks calmly at you, blinks regularly.
Quote: “…”
Adventure Core’s reaction: “Not much of a talker, huh? Well, it’s better than the other two”

fart core. has asshole instead of the eye bit and like farts a bunch haha. who wants to make the moddb page

#3

Punk Core:
“What the heck?”
“Where the hell you carry me to?”
“Put me down before I sho- oh wait, I can’t!”
“Dude! Seriously! Put! Me! Down!”

#4

a core where the eye is dark brown and the eyelids are pink and he justs spews archetypical pre-1960s negro stuff

Emo core:

"Good, just throw me in that incinerator. I’m so sad. And depressed. And lonely. I feel like tacos. Not pink tacos, I mean. Or actually yeah, I could go for some pink taco. But I can’t. Because I’m depressed and lonely and sad. Sometimes I feel like you’re the only one that gets me. Do you get me? I’d cut myself but I don’t have wrists. I’m just this stupid soccer ball housing a computer. I hope you’re happy carrying me around like this, I feel like such a burden to you as well as myself. In case you haven’t figured it out yet, I’m not happy. I’m a very sad person. Technically I’m not even a person at all, which is the even sadder part. Hook me up to a computer, I need to download some Linkin Park. Then again, they’re soooo 1999. They haven’t done anything good since Meteora. Maybe My Chemical Romance? Nah, they butchered Bob Dylan. I’m emo and even I couldn’t stand that song. Isn’t that sad?

…I’m so sad."

May as well have made a trilobite core. The emo-smashing party ended aeons ago

#7

Hipster Core.

#8

would like to re-iterate my butt core idea

#9

I just needed an example. And the Adventure Core is named Rick anyway. I guess Gordon would be a silent protagonist core or something.

#10

Harry made a core.

Anyway tourettes core - yell at you and swears a lot

#11

The Fuck Core.

Yeah.

#12

Negativity core
This thread sucks and it’s horrible.

#13

the conspiracy theorist core:

“…Balck meeas is ded…”

#14

For the record, you are adopted and that’s terrible. Just stick with the thread or get out.

#15

the crazy apocalyptic preacher core:

#16

The Bad Suggestion Core.

“Put Magnusson and Antlions in Black Mesa”
“Guns should have iron-sights”
“Gordon should talk”
“You should put Aperture Science references everywhere”
“TF2 easter eggs please!”

Stream-Of-Consciousness-Narrative-Core, as voiced by James McCaffrey-

"The din of the scraping noise that was my forcible extrication from the frame of GlaDOS echoed in the chamber like sound in a wind-tunnel, making me ever more aware of my impending doom at the hands of a woman I knew next to nothing about. She was lean, muscular, attractive in that crazy way that only strong women could pull off well. The years of testing by GlaDOS strangely didn’t manage to stop her getting a line-less tan. I tried to remember if I’d had tanning beds installed before the rest of the malevolent trans-human wet-ware AI had flooded the facility with neurotoxin. Regardless, she regarded me with eyes of malice, somehow managing to scare me despite being a part of GlaDOS for most of my waking life. Curious how the machine only feels alive in the face of destruction. Did I have a purpose? A soul? Did I have any choices?
[player chucks into incinerator]
As the smoke and the heat engulfed me, one final thought passed through my mind-
