Proxy is a rebel program in the Arq Grid who traveled to the Repository following a theft, seeking code left behind by Kevin Flynn.
History[]
Background[]
Proxy was one of the many inhabitants of the Arq Grid created by Kevin Flynn in order to protect the ISOs from Clu 2's Purge. She originally fought alongside Grish during the Adjunct War, where she was only seen as a rookie.[1] After the system became forgotten by its creator, however, a society and civilization was created, Proxy began to live outside the established hierarchy and as such, became a rebel program, gaining the reputation of a thief.[2] Proxy was the leader of a gang which Spectre was once a member of.[3]
TRON: Identity[]
When a theft at the Repository had occurred, Proxy arrived during the aftermath of the theft in order to see if she could benefit from the preceding events. However, she instead crossed paths with detective Query on the landing pad of the Repository. She reveals to him that she is seeking a piece of code called the User Key, left behind by Flynn, which would empower a program and give them new abilities.[1]
Proxy is derezzed by Query's Identity Disc.
Proxy holds Prinz hostage on the Landing Pad.
While Proxy and Query seemed to engage in a brief disc fight, the detective chose to drop his Identity Disc, allowing Proxy to enter the Repository. Proxy eventually captured Prinz, the Core administrator of the Repository, and threatened to kill him at the Landing Pad if he didn't tell her where the User Key was, as she had Prinz on his knees, Query arrived and begged her to stop, but Proxy refused. Grish eventually arrived at the pad too and reunited with Proxy under this tense scenario.[1]
As Proxy decided to take Prinz away so that he could guide her to someone who knew where the User Key was, she opened her wing chute and flew away after Grish froze and Query didn't stop her.[1]

General information[]
Personality and traits[]
Proxy is a smart and skilled rebel program who is willing to put up a fight. Like most ISOs, Proxy is independent, however, she also didn't give herself a function in the Grid, which is an alien concept to most programs. She chooses to not fulfill any higher purpose but rather her own needs and ambitions. Proxy is chaotic, taking advantage of any situation and even proudly proclaiming to be a thief in front of detective Query. She is shown to speak in a sarcastic manner, as described by the game's narration.[1] Briefly, she shows sadness when recounting her time with Grish during the Adjunct War, though she quickly brushes it off with bravado.[1]
Skills and abilities[]
Due to her reputation, Proxy seems to be a competent thief, able to sneak and successfully look or retrieve things. She was also able to find and capture Prinz without anyone knowing until it was too late. Proxy seemed to be skilled in the use of her identity disc, as she was quick to threaten Query with it, although she would be derezzed by the detective if he chose to fight her.[1]
TRON: Identity Codex[]
Proxy[]
Independence without function is alien to you. You cannot process the idea of a program who seeks only that which they need, without fulfilling a higher purpose. Proxy is such a program, driven by survival and ambition. An unpredictable and chaotic element in the system.
Proxy is a thief, and well known to the DoT. How you deal with her presence will have a massive impact on events. Choose wisely, and quickly.
Proxy's Wing Chute[]
Originally a tool of the Black Guard of Flynn's master server, this seems to be a custom design created by Proxy or an associate. It will allow for a controlled fall, even from up here on the landing pad.
The device uses light barrier tech to slow a drop, if utilized with care by the program using it.
Proxy's custom version looks more than sturdy enough to carry the additional body weight of a hostage. She came here prepared for that possibility.
You are not wearing such a device. If Proxy is to be stopped, it will need to be before she jumps.
Notes[]
- Proxy shares the same name as one of the Fortnite skins released in 2021.
- Proxy is presumably named after a proxy server, a server application that acts as an intermediary between a client requesting a resource and the server providing that resource in computer networking.
- In TRON: Catalyst, there is an area in the Outlands called "Proxy's Legacy."
