![]() ![]() The destruction of GAIA meant that every subordinate function of Zero Dawn had to make its own decisions, including HEPHAESTUS, which perceived the human practice of hunting machines for resources as hostile activity. HADES attempted to take control of GAIA completely, but GAIA self-destructed before he could do so. However at one point, an unknown signal caused HADES to go rogue and begin his extinction protocol. The machines they encountered were docile and generally harmless for many generations: if they saw a human, they would usually flee. Hundreds of years later, humans were released from the cradles they were created in and began forming primitive tribal societies, not knowing of the " old ones" who came before them. She then created many different machines modeled off of former animal life to purify the Earth's toxic atmosphere and biosphere. The swarm eventually devoured all biomass on Earth, but GAIA managed to succeed in cracking the encryption codes and shut down the Faro machines. ![]() GAIA was aided by nine subroutines, one of which was HADES, a subroutine designed to take control of the terraforming process and start it over again if it was unsatisfactory. Zero Dawn was the development of an advanced intelligence known as GAIA that would crack the machine swarm's encryption codes, deactivate them, and then re-seed the Earth with plant, animal, and human life. ![]() However, she proposed a project named Zero Dawn to Ted, stating that it was the only way of ensuring that life on Earth could continue after the machines killed everything. Ted Faro, the CEO of Faro Industries, met with a former employee named Elisabet Sobeck in hopes of containing the swarm, but Elisabet found that there was no way of stopping the machines from destroying all life on Earth. Despite humanity's best efforts, the swarm could not be contained and they devoured biomass wherever they went, eliminating entire cities and ecosystems. Soon, a full-fledged war between humanity and robots began, costing billion of lives and immense destruction. The machines replicated faster than they could be destroyed, and began operating as an independent entity. However, a "glitch" in the Faro machines caused them to ignore commands and begin attacking humans without authorization. The entire Faro line used polyphasic entangled waveforms, rendering them virtually unhackable. Additionally, the Scarab's hijacking ability allowed it to slave other combat machines to its network. The first machines created by Faro Automated Solutions were domestic servants, the Focus, and However, Faro soon began developing machines built for combat, two of which were the Scarab and Khopesh, heavily-armed robots that could supplant entire armies, convert biomass into fuel, and replicate themselves allowing them to operate indefinitely. ![]()
