==Overview==
Each CPU has two physical manifestations- Human and Goddess. Each CPU possesses two names- Birth Names and Divine Names. Examples of birth names include "Nepgear" and "Neptune". Divine names are what the CPUs obtain when Hard Drive Divinity is engaged, such as "Green Heart" or "Purple Heart".

Regarding their physical appearance, the divine form is similar to the human appearance but with new characteristics. In some rare cases, their appearance will change dramatically.
