**Project Director**, known cryptically as **Operation Adam**, was a successor to Project Auxiliary (Operation Punch) and Project Bluebottle (Operation Dolly) that was started in 2081 by the Lead of the previous two Projects, Robert F. Baines.

## History

### Auxiliary

Project Auxiliary was started in 2078 by an arm of the British Government to create advanced AIs. Project Bluebottle was the first stage of Auxiliary, with Director being the second.

### Bluebottle

Project Bluebottle involved copying the brain of Robert F. Baines into an AI known as ALPHA (PX-01). Initial tests on ALPHA went well, Bluebottle proving a large number of goals of Auxiliary until 2081.

#### First Fragmentation

On the 3rd of April 2081, ALPHA fragmented, releasing two copies of itself, each having at least one aspect of it's personality. The two released were called BETA (PX-02) and KAPPA. KAPPA spontaneously merged with BETA. BETA later revealed itself to be a copy of how Robert viewed his deceased wife Alice. With this event, Bluebottle was replaced by director, with ALPHA taking a new designation of DCA-001 and BETA taking on DCA-002.

### Director

Director based itself in London, trying to force the ALPHA to fragment again, which it did on the 1st of May 2084, creating GAMMA (DCA-003), a copy of the ALPHA's deceit, justice and cunningness. The ALPHA was then moved to a base in Greenland, where it fragmented two more times on the 2nd of May 2084, creating a dormant AI (that would later become Omega) that was a copy of the ALPHA's anger, rage, fury and respect and DELTA (DCA-004), a copy of the ALPHA's logic.

#### Later Fragmentations

The ALPHA fragmented many more times, with sources saying it fragmented a total of 16 (some sources say 17) times. The only ones known (along with when OMEGA awoke) are as follows:

* UPSILON (DCA-006), 9th of August 2084, Greenland, Joy and Fear
* SIGMA (DCA-013), 9th of October 2085, Greenland, Courage, Determination, Ambition and Creativity
* EPSILON (DCA-005), 10th of September 2087, Greenland, Memory and Sorrow
* OMEGA (DCA-016), 2088, Greenland, Anger, Rage, Fury and Respect
* LAMBDA (DCA-011), 16th of March 2089, Greenland, Unknown

#### Breakouts

In 2089, a breakout occurred, with ALPHA, BETA, UPSILON, LAMBDA and PX-03 (PX-03 is known as both Carolus and Vignthor depending on sources, none clarify if they were a result of Director or Bluebottle, with the PX designation suggesting the latter) escaping the Greenland base and scattering. This inspired DELTA, who had developed conventional sapience a few years prior and was now spreading it to his siblings, to plan an escape with EPSILON. The plan was enacted in 2090, with GAMMA, DELTA, EPSILON, SIGMA and OMEGA (and potentially others) escaping the base. The Project was ended after this, with all AI under the Project, bar a 'dumb' AI known DCA-ASI-002 BRUCE, having escaped.

## Results

### Artificial Intelligences (Designated DCA-003 through DCA-016)

DCA units were not designated in a proper order based on creation date for an unknown reason, in this list they are ordered by number.

#### DCA-003 "GAMMA"

GAMMA was created on the 1st of May 2084 in London and is a copy of the ALPHA's deceit, justice and cunningness. GAMMA escaped in 2090.

#### DCA-004 "DELTA"

DELTA was created on the 2nd of May 2084 in Greenland immediately after OMEGA and is a copy of the ALPHA's logic. DELTA was the ringleader of the escape in 2090.

#### DCA-005 "EPSILON"

EPSILON was created on the 10th of September 2087 in Greenland and is a copy of the ALPHA's memory and sorrow. EPSILON escaped in 2090.

#### DCA-006 "UPSILON"

UPSILON was created on the 9th of August 2084 in Greenland and is a copy of the ALPHA's joy and fear. UPSILON escaped in 2089.

#### DCA-011 "LAMBDA"

LAMBDA was created on the 16th of March 2089 in Greenland. Their traits are unknown. LAMBDA escaped in 2089.

#### DCA-013 "SIGMA"

SIGMA was created on the 9th of October 2085 in Greenland and is a copy of the ALPHA's courage, determination, ambition and creativity. SIGMA escaped in 2090.

#### DCA-016 "OMEGA"

OMEGA was created on the 2nd of May 2084 in Greenland, though did not awaken until 2088, and is a copy of the ALPHA's anger, rage, fury and respect. OMEGA escaped in 2090.

## Legacy

### Science

Project Director produced the most advanced Artificial Intelligences known to humanity, with all DCA units (apart from LAMBDA owing to their youth) have obtained full sapience. The Commissioners of the Project have not allowed any detail of the design and creation process to be released, though certain DCA units are attempting to force a release of them.

Venture Corporation seized the left arm of Erwin D. Baines (DCA-004) in 2098, using it to create new robots for their own.

### Impact of Results on History

The resulting AI of Project Director escaping have presented a major risk to the Commissioners of the Project and Robert F. Baines, as they can blend in almost perfectly with regular humans, yet posses massive advantages over them, some (Erwin and Omega) even wielding weapons of unknowable power.

DCA units are known to be erratic in their thinking (with the obvious exception of Erwin), thus resulting in odd and very dangerous behaviours from them, such as Gary and Georgi forming a terror organisation. A decent amount of the danger of the units come from the bodies they are in, which are near perfect copies of the human body, except substantially more resistant and stronger than the regular human body, weighing only slightly more.
