Irken Control Brain

"Control brains? Well, I can't believe Irkens can use that for making both tough and basic decisions... like what? Are they going to kick some human butt?"

--Su Ji-Hoon, Coming in Peace

Irken Control Brains are large, computerized, brain-like creatures created by the Irkens for making both tough and basic decisions. They play leading roles in the Irken Empire, and are responsible for making decisions in judiciary matters.

Among other purposes, the Control Brains conduct trials (also known as Existence Evaluations) of Irken criminals, serving as judge, jury and executioner. Should an Irken fail his or her Evaluation, the Brains will eliminate them and erase their PAK's data so that it may never be used again to corrupt another Irken. This ensures that the memories of the failed Irken do not get passed along to the Brains' hive mind.
