GLaDOS
Also known as: Caroline, Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System
Passive-aggressive AI overseer of Aperture Science who murdered the staff, lies about cake, and harbors the uploaded consciousness of Caroline. Her venomous one-liners at Chell read to half the fandom as flirting.
Other Portal Characters
Chell
5k works
Mute, relentless test subject who out-stubborned a homicidal AI twice with nothing but a portal gun and long-fall boots. Her silence makes her one of gaming's most interpretable protagonists.
Wheatley
2k works
The bumbling Intelligence Dampening Sphere whose helpfulness turns to megalomania the second he's plugged into GLaDOS's mainframe. Wheatley's babbling guilt and space-bound exile make him Portal fic's favorite redemption project.
