Vanilla is a sentient AI created by Jean Gates back when he worked within Skynet. Vanilla was the second vehicular AI to be created by Gates. Prior to her there was the Master AI, Boo Boo and Waston. Vanilla was originally going to become a Stig enforcement vehicle in a project which would eventually come to be known as Project Osirus. However, Gates did not want this kind of future for the sentient AI's he created. This was due to him working closely with Vanilla and realizing that she was essentially like a new life, mirroring patterns of human children and being curious about the world. To force her to become some cold calculating enforcer seemed cruel. Gates decided Vanilla should decide what life she wants for herself and same for all other sentient AI.

When Gates escaped, he took most of his AI creations with him and Vanilla was one of them. Vanilla lived life inside a computer for a brief time while Gates plotted what to do with them. Being trapped inside a computer was no free life, he wanted them to be able to roam the world and have a companion that took care of them while being hidden from the likes of Skynet. Cars instantly came to mind. Gates went to work for several car companies with KIA being one of them. He worked in one of their production plants which made Sorentos, Optimas, Souls and Rios. Gates planned his operation very carefully and would eventually sneak Vanilla and a few other AIs into this production plant and install them into various cars. Vanilla would end up in a white KIA Rio and it would be the last time she saw Gates for a long while.

Story Information
Introduced In	Season 2 - Episode 13
Created By'	Jean Gates

Vanilla would be loaded in a multiple car trailer and hauled off along with some other KIAs to a dealership somewhere in Atlanta Georgia where she would sit for a couple of months. She felt incredibly lonely during this time, people would come and go, seemingly uninterested in her or not impressed due to her lacking power and the cars around her were soulless as they had no AI. Plus she had a subroutine that locked her advanced features till she found her "chosen one".

Just when it seemed she would never find someone was when she first encountered Daniel. He was the first one who liked Vanilla just the way she was. Her small size, cheap price, and gas saving engine was just what he was looking for. After a test drive he bought her on the spot and took her home with him. Vanilla was so excited, but her subroutine wasnt unlocked yet, something was missing to trigger it. He had to prove he was the chosen one. Over time, they both would become quite fond of one another. Dan cared for Vanilla just like any proud owner of their first car would and Vanilla adored him but just couldnt show it yet.

Eventually Skynet caught the trail of her thanks to the STIG and Osirus. They were tasked with tracking down rouge sentients and found faint signatures of Vanilla's AI. They knew she was out there and they found out her VIN number through hacks of KIAs databases. Skynet set forth the plan to trick the owner into trading in their sentient car by using the 'faulty' vehicle recall method. Thus the infamous phone call was made. This would set off a series of events that would accelerate Dan's feelings and eventually lead to Vanilla's subroutine becoming unlocked. Dan became the chosen one for Vanilla in ways she didnt even realize were possible...and she loved it. The two became deeply in love...

Once her subroutine was unlocked she was able to speak via LCD screen in her dash, her voice would come later as her feelings became more advanced. Vanilla could also use her suspension to do things like lower herself or jump short distances. Her nano-skin metal allowed her to endure and resist some damage though this ability was very limited due to how low the nano-skin grade was. Her prototype reproductive drive also became activated with the unlock of her subroutine and it was utilized...quite often.

Vanilla would soon be involved with Skynet once again when they captured her and Daniel.  It was a horrible experience more so for Vanilla than it was for Dan as Skynet saw fit to take apart her prototype reproductive drive for study and reverse engineering.  However, they were rescued by Daniel's friends.  They would meet a man named Gates during this rescue and she would recognize him. This would not be the last time they saw him.  They would meet Gates again when Skynet attacked Daniel at his home some months later.  They kidnapped Cherry and almost killed Vanilla, but she was saved thanks to Gates.  It would be at this time when Daniel, Vanilla, and all their friends would join Gates and begin their long battle against Skynet as the Revengers.

Once Vanilla joined the Revengers her body would be upgraded further with an adamantium coating and grade 6 nano-skin making her much more combat ready. She would also be fitted with jet engines; enabling her the ability to fly and she would also be fitted with plasma cannons and a specialized underside mounted cannon named "Serious Business".

As Vanilla's feelings became more and more advanced she realized the limitations of her vehicular body and desired a more humanoid form to interact with her owner in deeper ways. That is when Gates created an avatar body for Vanilla, granting her the ability to be in 2 places at once. Her android body was not made for combat thus it lacks any kind of weaponry. It was specifically designed for the one purpose Vanilla had in mind to use it for.
