KOS-MOS is an armored female android developed by the interstellar conglomerate Vector Industries. She is comprised of entirely mechanical parts, a rarity in the age of advanced realian technology. The basic tenet to which she adheres is based on logic, probability, and completion of her mission above all else. She also unconditionally protects Shion, her creator. She is equipped with a "simulated personality OS" to aid in communication, and though her speech conveys her role as an android in service to humans, her tendency to put logic and probability first makes her quite difficult to manage at times.
The name "KOS-MOS" is a general acronym to denote an anti-gnosis tactic system. It stands for "Kosmos Obey Strategical Multiple Operation Systems"
Her development name is KP-X, and she is self classified as a Special Humanoid Anti-Gnosis Annihilation Weapon. Her serial number is 000000001.
She is designed to be emotionless, but throughout the series we are beginning to see evidence towards the opposite.
The limited edition of Xenosaga: Episode II includes an action figure of KOS-MOS, considered by some to be poorly constructed (see www.video-fenky.com (http://www.video-fenky.com/work/xeno2.html)). In light of this, some have named it "Death-MOK-KOS".
KOS-MOS's name is derived from the greek word Kosmos, meaning order.
