Dr. Caroll is a dataDyne-created AI that was made to decrypt the core access codes on the downed Cetan ship in Perfect Dark.

In-Game Description[]

Name: Dr. Caroll

Age: Six months

Race: The Caroll Sapient (AI)

An artificial intelligence created by the dataDyne Corp. with an emphasis on language skills and code-breaking. Fortunately, he has morals, and due to his formidable level of intelligence, has guessed some of dataDyne's future plans. The voice is highly precise and educated and simulates the character of an academic.

Background[]

Dr. Caroll was created as part of a deal between Cassandra De Vries and Mr. Blonde that would result in the Skedar gaining a downed Cetan ship while dataDyne would in return gain alien technology that would make them become an even more powerful corporation. Dr. Caroll was created due to the fact that neither the Skedar nor anyone at dataDyne could crack the code or figure out the language in use on the ship.

But, Dr. Caroll developed a conscience and was able to figure out the Skedar's true intentions. Dr. Caroll expressed his/its concern over the mission, to which De Vries ordered his/its personality removed, even though it would make him/it less capable of performing what he/it was created for. Out of desperation, Dr. Caroll adopted his/its pseudonym and contacted the Carrington Institute, pleading for help.
