[[File:AyaGLTAS.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Aya in her humanoid form.]] '''Aya''' is a female artificial intelligence that features in [[Green Lantern: The Animated Series]]. ==Biography== Aya was an artificial intelligence system that was constructed as part of a secret research initiative conducted by the [[Oa]]n known as [[Scar (DC)|Scar]] who served as a Science Director amongst the [[Guardians of the Universe]]. She intended to find the means of creating new life leading to her creating an advanced computer system. However, the machine lacked any life or sentience leading to Scar secretly moving to the [[Central Power Battery]] in order to take the spark of willpower that lay within the organism that inhabited the cosmic artifact. With it, she empowered the computer intelligence leading it to become self-aware and alive. The Science Director allowed the intelligence to grow but forbade her from accessing the wider databases but she disobeyed its Oan master. Tapping into the planetary database, she attempted to learn everything she could until the Director forcibly shut her down by tapping into her own cosmic power. With her shut down, the Oan Science Director decided to abandon her research project and instead decided to install Aya into the navigation system of a newly developed vessel known as the Interceptor. This was with the intention that she would be forgotten and never see active use. She was not killed but her remaining parts had survived but were too far from the Interceptor that prevented her from downloading into the ship. Instead, she found the remains of a damaged Manhunter and placed her intelligence into its ruined body that made its way slowly back to the Interceptor. Aya would manage to enter the craft's lower decks where she was met with by Hal, Kilowog and Razer arrived to investigate the unknown entry on the ship. As Aya rebuilt herself, she would ask what Razer meant when he said her 'loved' her but he responds by saying that he did not love her as she simply took the form of the person he had loved and that she was nothing more than a machine. Razer's rejection caused Aya to feel 'pain' and she would ask Hal Jordan on how to rid herself of that feeling. Jordan who was busy trying to muster a fight against the Anti-Monitor who was destroying the Red Lantern armada told her that people simply either lived with the rejection or blocked it. Aya would operate ineffectively in the battle against the Manhunters and decided to block all emotions. This resulted in her going to the engine room where she absorbed the energy of the ship's power battery causing it to be inactive whilst Aya became supercharged whereupon she engaged the enemy despite Jordan's attempts to stop her. She would destroy the Manhunters and send a Red Lantern ship slamming into the Anti-Monitor right before she launched herself at him and pierced his chest. The power of the strike dislodged his head sending it flying into space whilst Aya herself had merged with the remains of the Anti-Monitor's body. Believing their foe defeated, Hal asked her to return to the ship though Aya simply responded that she saw things much more clearly now and that the true monsters were her former friends that were destroying the emotionless machines. This led to her declaring herself the Manhunter queen and that they would serve her in the quest of ending the chaos of emotions. With the reactivated Manhunters, she departed the area as she began her campaign of ending the life of all organics. ==Overview== ===Personality and attributes=== ===Powers and abilities=== ==Notes== *Aya was created by Bruce Timm as an original creation for Green Lantern: The Animated Series. *The character first appeared in the [[War of the Green Lanterns]] story arc written by [[Geoff Johns]] but featured simply as a navigation system of the Interceptor that crashed into a safehouse facility. *She also appears in Smallville Season 11 in the Lantern story arc as a Green Lantern and accompanied John Stewart in the defense of Earth during the Monitors attack. ==Appearances== ==External Links== *[http://www.comicvine.com/aya/4005-83912/ Comicvine Entry] *[http://greenlantern.wikia.com/wiki/Aya_(Green_Lantern:_The_Animated_Series) Green Lantern Wiki Entry] {{stub}} [[Category:Artificial Intelligences]] [[Category:Female characters]] [[Category:Cartoon characters]] [[Category:Green Lantern]] [[Category:Bruce Timm]]
