| '''Auntie Dot''' ([[AI Serial Number]]: ADT 6849-9) also known simply as '''Dot''', was a [[Dumb AI|"dumb"]] [[Artificial Intelligence|AI]] active in the service of the [[UNSC Army]] between the years of [[2541]] and [[2552]].{{Ref/Reuse|vis}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Specializing in operative military intelligence, she notably served as intelligent support and liaison between [[Colonel]] [[Urban Holland]] and [[Noble Team]] during the [[Fall of Reach]].{{Ref/Reuse|vis}}
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Overview==
| |
| Auntie Dot's primary precepts included tactics and intelligence analysis; she was primarily created to serve as an overwatch adjunct during [[United Nations Space Command]] field operations, and worked as a direct liasion between teams deployed in the field and their [[commanding officer]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
| |
|
| |
|
| Rather than personifying herself in the form of a humanoid [[avatar]] like the majority of AIs, Dot's personal representation is a grid of glowing, constantly changing blue lights. Characteristic of "dumb" military intelligence support AIs, Dot typically speaks in a calm, dry, articulate voice, displaying little emotion compared to [[Smart AI]]s like [[Cortana]].{{Ref/Reuse|vis}}

| ==Operational history==
| | '''Auntie Dot''' was a [[human]] [[Artificial Intelligence]] construct at the time of the [[Fall of Reach]].<ref name="IGN">''[http://ie.xbox360.ign.com/articles/110/1106694p1.html IGN - Why is Master Chief in Halo: Reach?]''</ref> Its current status is unknown, but it was likely destroyed in the battle. She will keep the player connected to the rest of Noble Team while they are embarking on separate missions, and will play a similar role in [[Halo:Reach]] to the role [[Cortana]] played in [[Halo 3]].<ref name="IGN">''[http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/110/1109806p1.html IGN - Deep Into the Halo: Reach Campaign]''</ref> |
| ===Human-Covenant War===
| |
| Auntie Dot was activated on [[2541#May|May 9, 2541]].{{Ref/Reuse|vis}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} She served between that year and the [[Covenant]] [[Fall of Reach|attack]] on [[Reach]] in late [[2552]]. During the Fall of Reach, Dot worked alongside Colonel Holland and several [[UNSC Special Forces]] units including [[Noble Team]] to provide observation and intelligence where possible through security cameras and satellites orbiting the planet connected to the [[UNSC battle network]]. She directed Noble Team during the [[Battle of Sword Base]] in late July 2552{{Ref/Level|HR|ONI: Sword Base}}, alongside the [[Battle at Szurdok Ridge]]{{Ref/Level|HR|Nightfall}}{{Ref/Level|HR|Tip of the Spear}}, [[Operation: UPPER CUT]]{{Ref/Level|HR|Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace}}, the [[Siege of New Alexandria]]{{Ref/Level|HR|Exodus}}{{Ref/Level|HR|New Alexandria}} and the campaign's closing engagements [[Operation: WHITE GLOVE|again at Sword Base]]{{Ref/Level|HR|The Package}} and finally the [[Battle of Asźod]].{{Ref/Level|HR|The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn}} | |
| | |
| During the campaign on Reach, Auntie Dot herself was housed in a [[Reach super-AI network|suite of physical servers]] located somewhere on Reach. The fate of the servers - and thus Dot's survival - is unknown{{Ref/Reuse|vis}}, though the chances they survived the planet's [[glassing]] are unlikely.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

| ==Production notes==
| |
| Auntie Dot was introduced in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' as the AI companion to assist Noble Team throughout the game's [[campaign]]. She appears in almost every level of the game and is unlockable for use in the game's [[Firefight (Halo: Reach)|Firefight]] mode. Additionally, she appears throughout the game as the loading screen animation between missions. In-game, she was voiced by actress [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0749442/ Carole Ruggier].{{Ref/Game|HR|Halo: Reach credits|credits}}

| In the first week of [[Bungie]]'s "All-Star" contest in [[2011|January 2011]], the task was to produce an image of what a humanoid representation of Auntie Dot might look like.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=news&cid=30283|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Bungie All Stars - Week Uno|D=15|M=01|Y=2021}} The winner depicted Dot as an elderly woman knitting a blanket with her characteristic grid pattern sewn into it.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=30329|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Bungie Weekly Update: 01/14/2011|D=07|M=02|Y=2021}}

| Dot's grid accompanies the [[Halo: Reach credits|credits sequence]] to ''Reach'', and at the very end, just before it fades completely into darkness, it displays a [[seven]]. | |
