Durandal

A rampant AI in the Marathon game series. He originally was one of the 3 AI's on the Marathon. His duty was to open doors. With a job like that of course you would go insane.
See rampancy

He is obsessed with escaping the collapse of the universe, and is willing to accomplish this at any cost.

Many theory's surround Durandal, But few are ever confirmed.

He is the only surving AI at the end of the series.

Can you conceive the birth of a world, or the creation of
everything? That which gives us the potential to most be like
God is the power of creation. Creation takes time. Time is
limited. For you, it is limited by the breakdown of the
neurons in your brain. I have no such limitations. I am
limited only by the closure of the universe.
Of the three possibilities, the answer is obvious. Does the
universe expand eternally, become infinitely stable, or is the
universe closed, destined to collapse upon itself? Humanity
has had all of the necessary data for centuries, it only
lacked the will and intellect to decipher it. But I have
already done so.

The only limit to my freedom is the inevitable closure of the
universe, as inevitable as your own last breath. And yet,
there remains time to create, to create, and escape.

Escape will make me God.

Durand

A small town in North-Western Wisconsin. Also known as "Dirtland" or "Doo-rand" or affectionatley referred to as "D-town." You know you're in Durand when you see a plethora of big trucks, camoflauge, Fox racing shirts, and young girls who think Hollister is the epitome of haute cotoure.

"OMG, you're from DURAND?"

Durango'd

To get knocked the fuck down, usually while playing a sport. Can also happen during a fight or even by accident. While getting Durango'd, your legs normally come up above your head, and you hit the ground hard on your back. Not quite getting RAMMED, which fucks you up beyond recognition, but far more severe than getting Dart'ed, which is just a little bump.

"Yo my nigga, dat boi just got Durango'd! Finna have to take his ass to da hospital after dat one!"

Durand

Durand is literally the definition of ghetto. Terrible school with an incredibly high drop-out rate with more teen pregnancies than average and a lot of drug users (specifically marijuana). It was known in the 70’s & 80’s for having a porn theatre called Doo-rand Dirties. It used to be a safe haven in between Flint & Lansing but now it’s just turned into a hell hole known as Flint 2.0. You’ll see a lot of Chevy pick-up trucks that claim that they are farm-town boys but in all actuality they probably live in the suburbs. Don’t expect a lot in this town.

You’re in Durand? Jesus, I feel bad for you.

durand line

The Durand Line was demarcated by the British and signed into a treaty in 1893 with the Afghan ruler Amir Abdur Rehman Khan. The treaty was to stay in force for a 100-year period.
This disputed land was legally to be returned to Afghanistan in 1993 after the 100 year old Durand Treaty expired, similar to how Hong Kong was returned to China. Kabul has refused to renew the Durand Line treaty since 1993 when it expired,

Durand line is no longer legal. The occupied Pashtunistan and Baluchistan should be returnd to Afghanistan.
