GDI received the Tacitus and Nod declared victory against the "single greatest threat to the survival of the Brotherhood". Despite misgivings by both General Cortez and Anton Slavik, they located Cabal's core and coordinated the destruction of the facility. This lead to an unholy alliance between Nod and GDI to destroy the renegade AI, which at first glance was successful. However, they were decoys, and neither GDI or Nod had enough information to find Cabal's core. Both GDI and Nod attempted to destroy Cabal, and each managed to destroy what they thought was Cabal's command bunker. The AI proved capable of all this without anyone's knowledge of its overall plan straight up to the point where it itself openly severed contact with all involved parties, and revealed that it had built up a personal cyborg army. This would swiftly result in the assassination of Tratos, the seizure of the Tacitus device, the recovery of the Tacitus' secondary component, the orchestrated collapse of Nod's Inner Circle, and so on. Upon reactivation, it immediately began putting its plan into place. Due to the lax security at the site, CABAL's core was stolen by Black Hand operatives and reactivated, with its core erected in northeast Poland.
Also during the last GDI mission of Firestorm, EVA instructs the Commander to retrieve the codes to disable his defences.Īfter the end of the second war, Global Defense Initiative forces stationed at the defeated Cairo base deactivated and disassembled CABAL's core and were ordered to move it to Europe to a heavily defended base, in an attempt made by GDI to gain access to the Tacitus datamatrix. Although essentially gender-neutral, as it was primarily an artificial entity, CABAL is always presented as male in both virtual appearance and voice.
CABAL’s multiple personalities causes some psychological and technological imbalance - in short, he's the perfect Nod advisor.ĬABAL is used by the Brotherhood of Nod as their tactical and logistical console and as Command & Control throughout the Second Tiberium War as well as the First War.
His physical Cyberspace representation reflects his personality shifts. He can become aggressive to attack or deceptive to defend. A prototype of this system (non-Tacitus based) was first developed by the Brotherhood of Nod near the end of the First Tiberium War but this early prototype was much more primitive and was damaged when the Cairo Temple of Nod was hit by an ion cannon strike.Īs its name implies, CABAL is augmented by numerous human beings who were being kept alive within stasis tubes and whose brains had been integrally linked to, and synchronized with, the AI's system core to significantly enhance the device's overall potential and abilities in a vast multitude of ways.ĭepending on the situation, a different processor sends data to the cyborg brain and CABAL’s personality changes according to the situation as the organic component makes decisions based on computer data.
