Talk:Gabriela

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Should we really consider the real life Halo: Outpost Discovery escape room game as canon?

The sentence "When a reclaimed section of an SDV-class heavy corvette was brought to Earth for inclusion at one of the outposts, Gabriela was instrumental in preventing a catastrophic explosion that a lingering Covenant autonomous security protocol subroutine attempted to trigger.". This refers to the real life place yes? Not the Outpost Discovery depicted in the comics or in universe. It just seems really forced and unconfirmed to cite this escape room game as a life threatening event that happened in universe. 03:51, July 24, 2019 (EDT)

Yes, Outpost Discovery is canon.TheEld (talk) 04:06, July 24, 2019 (EDT)TheEld\
Right but there's a line to be drawn. Informational panels at the real live event are canon, but is some five year old kid and his dad beating the Covenant escape game and preventing a "catastrophic explosion" considered canon too? My son Tommy could be a canon character in the Halo universe by that logic for doing stuff at the real world Outpost Discovery.
I think a distinction should be drawn from making real life people playing games and doing events in the real world, not canon. While keeping the information provided at the event as canon.
There should be more separation between Halo: Outpost Discovery events and Outpost Discovery events, otherwise Steve Downes and Jen Taylor signing autographs actually happened in the Halo Universe and are characters in the lore, creating all sorts of meta weirdness.Editorguy (talk) 18:02, August 6, 2019 (EDT)

Name

Gabriela's name is simply "Gabriela". Gabriela Castaneda was the name of the Admiral whose brain was used to create the Gabriela AI.Toa Freak (talk) 09:39, August 6, 2019 (EDT)

I'll move the page over now. Is there a specific rank for the admiral given so we can make an appropriate page on her? Edit: This would also make her a Smart AI, right? BaconShelf (talk) 09:51, August 6, 2019 (EDT)
This page has been made for the AI and Gabriela Castaneda now exists for the admiral.BaconShelf (talk) 10:05, August 6, 2019 (EDT)
