A-Ko has an almost split personality. There is no clear reason why this is true, other than the fact that A-Ko does not recall when or where she was created. The hole in her memory doesn't bother her very much though. A-Ko believes that she was originally an he and that the ferengi which sold her to Sirah changed a few things, badly. The dominant personality is that of a young girl, excitable, bubbly, and very flirtatious with just about everyone. In this personality she thrives on attention and enjoys being the absolute center of it. She's extremely outgoing and takes risks easily, sometimes too easily. She has a trusting demeanor and tends to believe everyone she comes across.

The other personality, which is actually what A-Ko prefers, is male. That of a teenaged young man who is utterly infatuated with his friend and ship-make Sirah Abrim, often getting jealous of anyone who gets too much of the man's attention. In this personality he is more guarded, while still friendly and can be a bit of a flirt, is more reserved. He truly enjoys the company of others but prefers to listen, though gets bored very easily at times. He can be needy and difficult to cope with for long periods of time.

Both personalities are prone to being a bit explosive when upset, but being upset seldom lasts more than a few minutes at most. One might easily say that she/he is a bit of a drama queen in any form. A-Ko is not bothered by having two personalities, they tend to think of it all as a unified self and enjoys the versatility of changing things up, though does occasionally get upset when their program resets to the default, which is the feminine personality. No matter who they are, flattery definitely works and they love to be told how wonderful they are.

History

Sirah obtained A-Ko from a Ferengi during a trade deal at a significant discount. His favorite comment regarding this is "Never buy a discount AI from a Ferengi who is passing through the quadrant." As far as is known, there was no person who was the basis for A-Ko's personality, but if there was, they would likely be under psychological management. Not much history beyond that is known, even to A-Ko. There is a substantial probability that the Ferengi which sold the program to Sirah in the first place obtained it under less than reputable means. A-Ko has no memory before being brought online under the care of Sirah and was originally programmed to be his complete servant and property.

Over A-Ko's time with Sirah she realized that he didn't really want a total servant and property. Together they worked with a few programmers to adjust some of the parameters of her matrix. She was never quite as much of a servant as her previous owner claimed though, which worked well for the pair. Together they have been running cargo, contraband, and engaging in other minor smuggling runs ever since.

-A-Ko Quinn is the name of a [[QUINN AI]] associated with [[Sirah Abrim]], a freelance trader/salvager.
+A-Ko has an almost split personality.  There is no clear reason why this is true, other than the fact that A-Ko does not recall when or where she was created.  The hole in her memory doesn't bother her very much though.  A-Ko believes that she was originally an he and that the ferengi which sold her to Sirah changed a few things, badly.  The dominant personality is that of a young girl, excitable, bubbly, and very flirtatious with just about everyone.  In this personality she thrives on attention and enjoys being the absolute center of it.  She's extremely outgoing and takes risks easily, sometimes too easily.  She has a trusting demeanor and tends to believe everyone she comes across.

+The other personality, which is actually what A-Ko prefers, is male.  That of a teenaged young man who is utterly infatuated with his friend and ship-make Sirah Abrim, often getting jealous of anyone who gets too much of the man's attention.  In this personality he is more guarded, while still friendly and can be a bit of a flirt, is more reserved.  He truly enjoys the company of others but prefers to listen, though gets bored very easily at times.  He can be needy and difficult to cope with for long periods of time.
-A-Ko was originally designed as a female, but has chosen two distinct forms and personalities. One is a goth teenage girl who is overly excitable and bubbly.  She is lightly flirtatious with just about anyone. The other is a teenage gay boy, completely infatuated with his friend and ship-mate [[Sirah Abrim]] and rather jealous of anyone else who gets his attentions. Sirah has not attempted to repair this malfunction, as A-Ko refuses to believe there is one, and it doesn't hurt Sirah to let him/her be happy. The male personality can be...  Difficult to cope with at length.
-Frequently the AI will get upset, though being upset doesn't last long.  Moods are fleeting and come and go quickly without lasting impression on him/her in any case, unless something is serious.  In any case, he/she will tend to throw holographic marshmallows at people when upset.  The more upset he/she is, the larger the marshmallow.
+Both personalities are prone to being a bit explosive when upset, but being upset seldom lasts more than a few minutes at most.  One might easily say that she/he is a bit of a drama queen in any form.  A-Ko is not bothered by having two personalities, they tend to think of it all as a unified self and enjoys the versatility of changing things up, though does occasionally get upset when their program resets to the default, which is the feminine personality.  No matter who they are, flattery definitely works and they love to be told how wonderful they are.
-A-Ko is designed to do a variety of general tasks, though Sirah treats him/her like he would any crew person, allowing ample down time.  She is capable of managing all starship operations of any given vessel that Sirah is using and is capable of doing so for even a heavy cruiser type of ship such as Federation Galaxy Class ship without assistance, provided there are holographic projectors or some kind of robotic assistance for maintenance that cannot be done through software.

-Flattery definitely works on this particular AI. In either form, she loves to be told how cute she/he is and how much her work is appreciated. She really is on the top end of brilliant, even though no one would guess it by her personality choices.
