Description It's one core with two personalities. You can differentiate by their eye rotating to their color and their change in expression.

Knave is the one on the left, who seems perpetually happy. He always lies.

Knight is on the right. He always looks indifferent or annoyed, but always tells the truth.

The core was created to help regulate GLaDOS' 'enhancing the truth', but were found unneeded in the end.

Any A.I should be wary when engaging in conversation with Knight/Knave, unintentional paradoxes usually result when talking long enough, even if they are aware that one is lying.

"I always tell the truth."
"He's lying, I always tell the truth.
"He's the liar."
"No, he is."

"This statement is truth."
"That statement is false~"

"Oooooooh, that core looks defective!"
"He's perfectly fine..."

"You're at the perfect weight."
"You're fat~"

"The cake is a lie."
"There is cake."

For the contest... (No, I'm not psychic...)

Actually, it goes much deeper into the idea of Knights and Knaves themselves, though Labyrinth does have this.

I've seen this a LOT, so that's my inspiration. I even named them after the trope.
