There are two unique Empresses who are referred to as Auditors. Their task seems to be the preservation of Machina survival. It is observed to consist of two main parts: Internal affairs and defense against threats to the Machina as a whole. If a Machina performs actions that are deemed self-destructive to the Machina, such as harming other Machina or becoming a liability to Machina survival through actions or inaction, the Auditors will seek out that Machina and punish her, often re-educating the offending Machina. The Auditors will also strike at human projects that would pose a threat to the continuation of Machina life. As a result of their twin purposes, these Machina are very vigilant, constantly searching for threats within and without. Auditors appear to only have two abilities that are unique to them. The first is that they seem to be able to focus on a Machina that they do not control, including other Queens, and issue commands to them as though they do control that Machina. The other ability possessed by Auditors is a seemingly-undefeatable Cluster-Code, possibly so they can instantly force other Machina into submission and not be forced into submission themselves.

The first is that they seem to be able to focus on a Machina that they do not control, including other Queens, and issue commands to them as though they do control that Machina. This is often to issue commands to stop the Machina from continuing their dangerous behaviour, and to assign punishment to them. The authority of a single Auditor is enough to command or punish any non-Alpha Machina. For issuing commands and punishments to an Alpha, the consent of both Auditors is needed. The other ability possessed by Auditors is a seemingly-unbeatable Cluster-Code, possibly so they can instantly force other Machina into submission and not be forced into submission themselves.
