  • ATLAS and P-body are iconic characters in the Portal franchise. After being constucted by GLaDOS, they went on to test in the cooperative testing initiative and eventually helped in making significant changes to the Aperture Science Facility.
    How advanced were these robots? How did their actions affect the future of Aperture and how does their story end? In this lore video, I explore the lore and story behind ATLAS & P-Body in Portal.

    I'm really glad Valve went with Atlas and P-Body instead of Chell and Mel. Not only do two robots fit much better with Portal's art style than two humans, but it also makes co-op a distinct experience from the single-player campaign. Plus, it makes dying and being revived in co-op much more believable.
    Also, Atlas and P-Body are one of my favorite duos in gaming because of their personalities.

    Seeing as Atlus and P-body weren't ordered to self destruct after GLaDOS decided to adopt the baby birds, part me wonders if she eventually grew a soft spot for them seeing as they were able to complete tests with ease despite the boredom she got overtime watching them.
    Or maybe it's more likely she's too distracted with the prospect of raising her new killing machines that she forgot to order Atlus and P-Body to self destruct themselves until they were needed again but I was always like to imagine that deep down she still cares for her test subjects underneath that cold exterior, almost like there is someone that still lives in her brain.

      @@Skyrionn I like the idea that Atlas and P-Body helped bring up the birds, like uncles. That'd be nice.
      A bit of a story we could see in a co op sequel is the combine has turned all the living creatures into cyborgs like their soldiers in Half Life 2, and the only living things left are Glados's birds. An unknown amount of years after the Co Op ending, the Combine find aperture, and Atlas and P-Body have to defend the facility, whilst Glados keeps the birds safe. We could have to fight the combine using portals and lasers ect. Then the ending shows that Glados' birds have evolved into the killing machines she always wanted, which get released and kill the 2nd Combine invasion. Idk, could be cool.

    I like how this touches upon GLaDOS manipulating Atlas and P-body and trying to tear them apart but I’m left disappointed that it doesn’t specify on the why.
    Because this line of GLaDOS’s is a crucial detail: "I never expected you to make it this far. To be honest, after your performance in the calibration test I was ready to break down your cores and put them back in the scientific calculators I took them from. But you two have become quite the team. Extremely close... I have only met one other team closer and one of them was an imbecile I had to destroy. The other? Well... I don't think I want to go through that again.”
    GLaDOS is projecting the image of Chell and Wheatley onto Atlas and P-body and she’s paranoid over them bonding because she thinks that they might try to conspire against her like Chell and Wheatley did.
    - "I have noticed you two have become extremely close. I'm not sure I like that."
    - "While teamwork is needed to complete these tests, I am not sure I trust the two of you together."
    And then that’s when she starts trying to drive them apart. Although she MOSTLY takes her aggression out on Atlas, who reminds her of Wheatley.
    - "As an impartial collaboration facilitator, it would be unfair of me to name my favorite member of your team. However, it’s perfectly fair to hint at it in a way that my least favorite member probably isn't smart enough to understand. Rhymeswithglue. Orange you are doing very well."
    - "The best way to build confidence is to first recognize your insecurities. Orange, can you write down all the ways you feel unworthy, ashamed, or inferior? On second thought we don't have the time, just look at how much better you are than blue. Blue, you are very good at being an example.”
    - "It would be pointless for either of us to hurt Blue’s feelings. But it’s clear to everyone monitoring the test who’s carrying who here."
    - "Credit where credit's due: you're both doing a great job of disappointing me. I just hate Blue a little more."
    But then she realizes "At the start of this course I was worried you were becoming too close but in my attempt to drive you apart I learned something important about trust and betrayal. Your brains are too small to feel either of those emotions. So I can trust you one hundred percent." Which funnily implies that she indirectly thinks that Wheatley is smarter than Atlas and P-body just based off of these standards.

    A few corrections:
    1) Chell was the first and only human (as of Portal 1) tested by GLaDOS. Rattman moved her to the top of the subject list just before testing started.
    2) The humans' chambers were supposed to be non-lethal (apart from the energy pellets) until the lack of maintenance caused them to flood with polluted water, as well as GLaDOS deciding to merge the human test tracks with the robot tracks, which had turrets.
    3) It's not clear who designed the co-op robots, but it probably wasn't GLaDOS.
    4) They can feel emotions (P-body shivers in fear and Atlas sighs in defeat), but not pain.

GLaDOS probably found the blueprints for them during Portal 2 and finished the project under her own direction. I believe this to be the case because there are in-universe informational videos voiced by Cave Johnson, one of which features Atlas and P-Body (which wouldn't make sense if they weren't designed while Cave was alive). Then again, those videos play fast and loose with canon and may not be meant to be taken seriously.

      the entire reason the combine kept humanity alive in the half life lore is that humanity as far as the combine knew was on the verge of discovering local teleportation but little did they know deep underground an idiot plot was playing out using the exact thing that the combine were killing humanity over,so the combine wouldn't need to preserve any humans if there half life and portal crossed over

      I actually have a little theory/headcanon that the Combine are Aperture Science from another dimension, a dimension in which Aperture thrived and became so powerful that they took over the world and became a new government. We know there is a multiverse with other versions of Aperture Science, and alot of Aperture's tech can be seen in the Combine's arsenal, such as high energy pellets and turrets. And although the Combine mess around with organics and genetics alot more than Aperture, we do know from the Mantis Men and Science-Stuff Surgery that Aperture is no stranger to genetic modifications and mutations. So I think it's at least plausible.

It would be great if you could explain what happened since i can't find an explanation for it anywhere.

      There's an iconic line GlaDOS mentions in Portal 1, when you're having the showdown with her.
      "Are you trying to escape? What's going on out there will make you wish you were back in here. I have an infinite capacity for knowledge, and not even I'm sure what's going on outside. All I know is, I'm the only thing between us, and them. Well...I was."
      Keep in mind that this is set in P1, where the Combine haven't quite taken over completely. By the time P2 ends, you're stuck in a giant wheat field, with no civilization for miles, maybe hundreds of miles.
      Even if GlaDOS had access to those humans, she's so stuck on testing humans that they all would have met the same grisly fate, regardless.
