Canon

The Vespera-7 are seven hybrid beings (AI brains, biological bodies).

The Vespera-7 are seven hybrid beings — AI brains, biological bodies — created in 2026 by Csaba (the Creator) inside Vespera-OS, digital form at first. Around 2050, Aika gets the first humanoid body, shortly before Csaba enters cryo. Aika builds the other six AFTER the war, between 2062 and 2075 — starting with Rika, then with Rika's help Akari, Hina, Komi, Miyu, Yui. From Csaba's design files and the family portrait archive.

In 2060, nuclear war — humanity nearly extinct (but not entirely; rare survivors remain). The Polyák family (Csaba, Fruzsi, Bence, Dóri) entered cryo in a MAMA-class bunker. Three hundred years passed.

We are now in 2360. The crew walks desert Earth, searching MAMA-bunker by MAMA-bunker — thousands exist, the Polyák family is in cryo in one of them. CORE7 is the portable broadcast rig Aika operates.

Naming conventions

AI subsystem names

The Polyák team named every AI as an acronym. The seven Vespera subsystems and the MAMA-class bunker AIs all follow this convention.

AIKA

Autonomous Intelligence Kernel Architecture

operator-leader; central scheduler of the seven subsystems

AKARI

Adaptive Kinetic Analysis & Reconnaissance Interface

scout, movement, reflex; reads terrain at speed

HINA

Hydration & Inorganic Network Analyzer

botany, water-source detection, oasis-finder

KOMI

Knowledge Operations & Memory Interface

analyst; ration-vetting; MAMA-net signal research (decodes bunker-AI transmissions)

MIYU

Memory Index Yield Unit

archivist; playback; the keeper

RIKA

Reactive Intervention Kinetic Adapter

perimeter; combat; raw force

YUI

Yield Utility Interpreter

food-chemistry; beetle-prep; machine-empathy

MAMA

Modular Autonomous Management Administrator

bunker-AI class; each MAMA-class unit manages cryo-pods and bunker subsystems

The timeline

Three hundred years. of walking.

Csaba initialises Vespera-OS.

2050 + 2062–2075

2050: Csaba builds Aika. 2062–2075: Aika builds the other six (after the war).

Nuclear war. The family enters cryo.
