Cores are robot balls, similar to Wheatly, who appear in Portal Labs. Two of them, Space Core and Rick Core, appear in ITS MY LIFE!, while Fact Core only appears in a fan story MarissaxChell.
Biography[]
Space Core and Rick Core are first seen when Ratman reveals that he replaced his testicles with them, following the senior graduation party, when Cave Jonson exploded them. Their origin is unknown, as they predate Portal Labs, but it is known that Ratman retained them while in Portal Labs and while being thrown to space. Space Core is still convinced he is in space, while Rick is mad at the development.
Since Space Core has the power to breathe in space, similar to Marrissa Roberts, Ratman was able to survive in space and return to the Earth.
Fact Core only appears in MarissaxChell, as he and Wheatly were in a romance, making Marissa distraught.
Trivia[]
