Ordis
The Cephalon running the Tenno's Orbiter, carrying loyalty and guilt beneath a shattered Ordan Karris past.
Ordan Karris
Ordis was once Ordan Karris, a mercenary who defied the Orokin. Rather than punish him with death, Ballas and the Orokin turned his mind into a Cephalon. His new identity was arranged to serve his master, yet the old rage was never fully erased.
The family he built with the Tenno
He repairs the Orbiter's systems, keeps the Foundry and Arsenal running, and guards the Operator's physical body. He stays with the Tenno even when Lotus is gone or the system collapses. His loyalty stops being mere programming and comes close to a bond of chosen family.
What The New War cost him
Helping the Drifter and a broken Lotus under Sentient pressure, he takes a physical Sentinel-like form and suffers heavy damage. Rebuilding him makes visible that a Cephalon is not only a ship interface but a person who can be lost.
