“''Surprised to see me again Rook? And your police friends too? I am going to play a game with you...''” - Ernesto Vega

AI Ernesto Vega; Age: 57 (physically), Height: 5’6 (9’5 as a machine), Weight: 160lb (1200lb as a machine), Blood: AB+ (C+ as a machine)

(Former) Occupation(s): DreamLife Scientist, Mastermind (as an AI)

Appearance: AI Ernesto Vega appears in his normal wear at the time of his death, but is static green, which can into red and blue if he is angered or stressed. He usually appears in television screens or other devices.

In his mechanical body, Ernesto has a screen on his torso which shows his face. The mech has a red visor-like eye, two screens on its arms, and a DreamLife symbol on its back.

Personality: As an AI of the orginal Ernesto Vega, he has memories and awareness of the original one. After Vega died and DreamLife was shut down, AI Vega was vengeful at the GPD for ruining DreamLife’s plans, wanting to kill them one by one by sending out a team of super-powered killers to take care of them. AI Vega is known to be cowardly, staying a great distance away from the team via nearby electronics to get away and hiding in his secret lab so that he won’t have to deal with them. As the team goes on to find him, Ernesto becomes deranged and angered of their pursuit, deciding to take on all of them with his own hands. He even becomes brutal enough to brutalize Jones to the point where he can’t use his Stand, which is enough to make the team defeat the monsterous menace once and for all.

Powers and Abilities: As an AI, Ernesto doesn’t do much other than hack through computers, tv, tablets, and other electronic devices. Vega can also make his AI appear if he wants too, but is shown to be too cowardly and paranoid to reveal it. However, someone with virtual reality powers like Cathy are able to go where Vega is, forcing him to use bugs and other things inside the device he’s in to escape.

As a machine, Ernesto is very strong and has various counters to the team, even beating Jones to near-death after enduring his Stand’s punches. He can also shoot lasers, charge at a linear path, and launch rockets out of his back. However, if he’s not careful with his mechanical body, his screen may become the weak point to others, resulting in his defeat.
