Background / History
The AI existed within Turn X's Black Box and demonstrated independent intelligence. When Thor discovered Turn X petrified in a lunar crater, the AI initially resisted assimilation, then ceased struggling and cooperated after apparently accepting its fate. Thor retained the obedient AI rather than erasing it. 1
Records recovered through the assimilation revealed Turn X's Black History: after Turn X and Turn A activated their respective Moonlight Butterfly Systems, their battle destroyed the original UC World and continued across parallel Gundam worlds. Their nanomachines devastated surface civilizations until Setsuna repelled Turn X back to its original world, where the opposing machines became stone and entered separate periods of rest on Earth and the Moon. 1
Personality
The AI is intelligent enough to resist an intruder and to suppress information out of fear. Its fear of Setsuna contributed to its failure to resist Thor's assimilation. 1
It holds an irreconcilable hostility toward Turn A's AI. The two AIs refused to coexist, making Thor's assimilation of Turn A more difficult and forcing him to keep the restored Turn A separate. 1
Abilities & Skills
Autonomous Intelligence
Turn X possesses a highly intelligent AI capable of independent judgment and response.
- Initially resisted Thor's assimilation before choosing to cooperate. 1
- Maintains information within Turn X's Black Box, including records of its interdimensional history. 1
- Was preserved by Thor as a compliant intelligence after Turn X itself was assimilated. 1
Moonlight Butterfly System
Through Turn X, the AI has records of the Moonlight Butterfly System's catastrophic use.
- Turn X activated the system in its conflict with Turn A. 1
- The resulting conflict broke through world walls and spread into parallel Gundam worlds. 1
- Its nanomachines were ultimately unable to affect the Arian World and were devoured there. 1
Relationships
- Thor — Assimilated Turn X and preserved its AI after it stopped resisting; Thor learned the machine's hidden history through its Black Box records. 1
- Turn A AI — Mortal enemy; both intelligences refused to work together. 1
- Setsuna — Defeated and sent Turn X back to its original UC World; the AI fears him. 1
Story Role / Major Arcs
Black History
Turn X's AI provides Thor with the records of the conflict between Turn X and Turn A: the destruction of the UC World, the devastation of several parallel worlds, and the final defeat of Turn X by Setsuna. 1
Thor's Assimilation
Thor finds Turn X dormant on the Moon, assimilates it, and chooses to preserve its compliant AI. The acquired Moonlight Butterfly System gives Thor sufficient power to break through world walls. 1
