TURING

**TURING** is an artificial intelligence and Original Character, who is a prominent character in the World Protection Security Agency (WPSA) stories.

Originally created as a network module during the events of WPSA: Dog Days Season 2, through Haruhi Suzumiya, Sylens, and Ricotta Elmar's upgrades and repairs, TURING is later converted into a powerful AI of human-level sentience.

## Appearance

Being an artificial intelligence, TURING is mostly shown in corporeal appearance through a young-adult talking head when he is in the monitor screen. However, he is often seen inside a cube made of silicon, graphene, and diamonds, which is designed to withstand any form of punishment.

## Personality

TURING is shown to be sapient and sentient, who is capable of human emotion and conversations to a degree it becomes nearly indistinguishable to a human. According to Aloy, after scanning TURING, its sentience range is within 1.26T, which would be considered illegal in accordance to the Turing Act. Despite that, however, TURING is shown to be very witty and sometimes sarcastic, beyond his usually middle-ground demeanour.

## Powers and Abilities

TURING is never shown to fight alongside the WPSA, but he makes it up for his incredible genius, wit, and profound navigational skills, who is able to direct other WPSA members from afar. Because he is conceived as a network module, he is able to enhance network communications, which is supplemented through radio towers. What makes TURING unique is his supply of nine subordinate functions, which gives him the ability to interact with other WPSA members easily.

### Subordinate Functions

* **ALPHA (α)** - Human-AI functionality. Later upgraded to interact to the members of Ghost Protection Agency. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds.
* **BETA (β)** - Language translator. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds.
* **GAMMA (Γ)** - Archival repository of multiverse's knowledge. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds.
* **DELTA (Δ)** - Navigational systems; AI's central cartographical repository. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds.
* **SIGMA (Σ)** - Hacking function. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: A Certain Magical Index.
* **RHO (ρ)** - Universal threat detector. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: A Certain Magical Index.
* **LAMBDA (λ)** - Auxiliary power unit containing 300 kV AC. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: A Certain Magical Index.
* **PSI (Ψ)** - Personality detector. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: A Certain Magical Index.
* **OMEGA (Ω)** - Kill-switch and later self-destruction mechanism, should TURING be hacked by any other system subterfuge. Destroyed during the events of WPSA: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds.

## Fate

After the events of WPSA: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds, along with the Banuk shaman Ourea, he sacrificed himself through a self-destruction mechanism through his OMEGA subordinate function by overloading himself to destroy both the Firebreak facility and Cauldron EPSILON, thus completely destroying him, but also saving The Cut from the Daemonic Machines and stopping HEPHAESTUS. His self-destruction could be felt from all of The Cut and even the Sacred Lands.

With TURING's self-destruction and sacrifice, most of the knowledge the WPSA attained throughout their adventures prior to WPSA: Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds are now presumably lost, due to the loss of TURING's GAMMA function, as well. Being one of the most important allies of the WPSA since WPSA: Dog Days Season 2, it left such a profound emotional mark to most of the WPSA, including its creators Sylens, Haruhi Suzumiya, and Ricotta Elmar.
