The '''Computer Assisted Biologically Augmented Lifeform''' ('''CABAL''') was a sinister and highly advanced [[artificial intelligence]] in the [[Command & Conquer: Tiberian Series|Tiberian Series]] of [[Command & Conquer]], which, as its name implies, was augmented by numerous human beings who were kept artificially alive within [[Stasis (fiction)|stasis]] tubes and whose [[Human brain|brains]] had been integrally linked to, and [[synchronized]] with, the AI's system core. Presumably this was done in order to significantly enhance the device its overall potential and abilities in a vast multitude of ways. CABAL was used by the Brotherhood of Nod as their tactical and logistical console throughout the [[Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun|Second Tiberium War]]. Although essentially gender-neutral, as it was primarily an artificial entity, CABAL was always portrayed as male in both virtual appearance and voice.

==Origin==
CABAL's origin is unknown, with some speculation placing it to be based on a combination of [[Scrin#The Scrin|Scrin]] technology and a captured [[GDI]]'s [[Electronic_  Video_  Agent|EVA]] unit. It was first acquired by the Brotherhood of Nod near the end of the [[Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn|First Tiberium War]]. When [[Global Defense Initiative|GDI]] commandos stormed [[Kane (Command & Conquer)|Kane's]] temple (last mission in Renegade), it could be heard malfunctioning from the severe damage the Temple had incurred from the [[Ion Cannon]]. Between the First and [[Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun|Second Tiberium War]]s, Nod agents rehoused CABAL's core s(contracted; show full)In ''[[Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars]]'', the only mention of CABAL is a short piece of intel describing the destruction of its last known bunker.

CABAL was voiced by [[Milton James]] in both ''Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun'' and its expansion pack, ''[[Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun#Firestorm|Firestorm]]''.
