About Rhinedottir & The Shade of Life
5.6 Spoilers
Here, I'll be explaining Rhinedottir's connection with the Shade of Life and how it's not new information that she devoured the shade. Initially this was a conversation prompted by the question "is Rhinedottir more powerful than a Shade?", so the wording may seem strange. Credit to my partner for writing this - we both did the research & I edited.
Sandrone's Design: An Analysis
(This analysis believes in the Sandrone Guillotin theory. Join the Sandrone discord server if youâre curious about that! ⌠Or DM me if youâre shy)
(This is an informal essay, I promise I write professionally)

The Puppetâs Design Analysis
If we start from the top, we have Sandroneâs bonnet. Itâs possible that this could be inspired by a fontange or a french hood.Â
The fontange was french and popular in the 17th century, which is where I would say most of her design sources from. Originally, it would be a small cap on the back of your head that was stacked with lace and ribbons. Ladies would stack them higher and higher to make themselves look prettier, but itâs worth noting that men complained about it.Â
The french hood was popular in the 16th century, introduced by Mary Tudor, Queen of France. Typically, french hoods had a black veil in the back but exposed the front of your hair. Eventually, the front of the hood would become decorated. For some reason, the king didnât like the french hood and banned ladies from wearing it under certain circumstances.
Through strict appearance alone, youâd assume her bonnet was more similar to the french hood than the fontange, but Sandrone the puppet has more to her design than just that.
When it comes to her hair, itâs not similar to 17th century French styles at all. Itâs a French bob with possibly a bun in the back.Â
In the 17th century, women wore their hair up, with curled âmustachesâ (strands of hair) trailing down their face. Big hats and big hair was super popular back then, but again men hated it and wanted them to wear their hair in English fashion instead.
Her collar could possibly be a âfalling bandâ, popular in 17th century France, although mainly worn by men. They were also generally bigger.Â
Sandrone has puff sleeves, which were popular in Europe from the 14th-17th century. There are different kinds of puff sleeves, and she may have specifically Juliet sleeves depending on how you see them. Originally, they were worn by people in England to show the power of the monarchy. Itâs possible that her sleeve isnât a puff sleeve, like it could be a lantern sleeve instead, but Iâm getting conflicting information on what is what.
You can either see Sandroneâs black sleeves as being short sleeved, or her having long sleeves (white gloves). If we go with the opinion that she wears short sleeves with long white gloves, itâs worth mentioning that short sleeves were trendy back in 17th century France! Theyâd wear puffed sleeves with lace, notably not covering âhalf the armâ.Â
Sandrone wears an underbust corset with a hip panel. In the 17th century (In England), corsets/bodies/stays were worn by men and women, and were considered necessary for the beauty of women. Other than that, every piece of info Iâm getting is conflicting, so any corset lovers are free to continue this section!
Underneath Sandroneâs hands is something that I can only describe to be a bib. It looks similar to an 18th century apron, which was decorated to show high status. (example)
What holds up Sandroneâs cute skirt could be a crinoline or a form of a pannier. Crinolines werenât popular until the 19th century, but panniers were undergarments that were super popular in the 17th century. They look a little weird though, but the crinoline took influence from it in its early stages.
Men also did not like pannier undergarments at all. (one) (two)
Sandroneâs cute red skirt could possibly be an overskirt, or the version of an overskirt which became more popular, a âmantuaâ. Just like a mantua, it splits in the middle to show off the dress. The color of her skirt is important, as red was considered a very rich color in 17th century France. The texture of her dress also reminds me of popular textiles used in the same time as well.
Her white gloves indicate French nobility, but itâs also possible that they could be evening gloves, which have been worn since the 17th century. They were most popular later on though, and at some points were considered necessary if you wanted to look nice/pretty.Â
Her skirt, sleeves, and underskirt(?) are all black, and black wasnât really worn back then due to how hard it was to pull off or look good. It was also expensive. In that era, vibrant colors were more preferred. Except, you guessed it, men hated it.
Sandroneâs dainty blue shoes are another popular item of 17th century fashion in France. It was popular to wear blue slippers, and eventually those shoes became high-heeled.Â
Her black underskirt looks like âwatteau pleatsâ or a âsack back gownâ, with the extreme pleating, although typically on the back of the dress. They were popular in the 18th century and were considered extremely formal. It could also be a petticoat, but black petticoats werenât really a thing back then.
The flowers on her dress look kind of similar to an anemone flower, although Iâm not convinced. Anemones were hugely popular in the 17th century, and were viewed as the flower of the dead. However, the design on her dress is also a double triquetra, and also has ribbons flowing from the bottom. It was a huge trend in the 17th century to decorate your dress with all sorts of things, including floral designs.Â
The Robotâs Design Analysis
(Iâm going to call him Bob for brevityâs sake⌠we all call him Bob)
Bob has a cog around his head meant to look like an unstarched frill worn by cavaliers. The white ruffle in between the frill is a jabot, which became popular in the 17th century all throughout Europe. In France, specifically, they were worn solely by men. However, the accessory on his frill (the gear) is something solely worn by women. Above the jabot is a pendant that looks strikingly similar to the âMeshing Gearâ dropped by Fontaine Meka.
Every element in Bobâs design takes inspiration from the French cavaliers of the 17th century. Both the Marechaussee Hunters and male Fontaine Research Institute NPCs wear a greatcoat, a military cavalier jacket popularized by Napoleon. Bob also wears an almost identical belt as that of a male research institute npc.
The robot appears to wear a combination of a greatcoat and a doublet, the latter of which was worn from the medieval ages to the 17th century - often seen on cavaliers.
In the fashion of military wear, he also dons jackboots (cavalier wear). His legs are shaped like breeches, which again, were worn by 17th century cavaliers.
He wears a very modest cavalier hat, with the pen-looking-thing being the large feather of the hat.
Bobâs design has a lot of fancy white ruffles and what looks to be gold all around him. For a cavalier, this would mean he is incredibly rich, noble, and obedient to the royals. He also wears red, which at the time his design is inspired by, was very associated with Napoleon, who would be the only man in the cavalry to wear red. Itâs likely that both Sandrone and Bobâs outfits are made from velvet.
What Are We Supposed To Get From This?
Notably, the 17th century was known for its innovation and the scientific revolution, which ties into Alain and Mary Annâs technological advancements as well as Sandroneâs whole being a robot thing.Â
I made a point to express how often men hated womenâs fashion trends for a reason. Among those, men hated how elaborate and high womenâs hair was styled, how colorful their dresses were, how colorful their makeup was, and the way their dresses looked.Â
Notably, Sandrone doesnât reflect anything they complained about. I believe this was intentional, other than for obvious gacha game design reasons. Sandroneâs design, paired up with the Guillotin theory, shows you that she was created.Â
With the added fact that Louis XIV, the King in the era sheâs based on, refused to let the women in his court dress themselves, I believe weâre supposed to see Alain or her robot servant as her controller of some sort.Â
Sandrone resembles French nobility - she looks rich. While we donât have any canon information about her wealth status, she is still a doll, and I feel that she will not be nearly as rich as she dresses. As a cavalier, Bob resembles nobility in a very masculine way. Outside of battle, cavaliers were pompous with outfits often even larger than the women they mocked. This loud style of clothes was associated with those loyal to the royals at the time, meaning Bobâs design signifies a rich, monarchist, Catholic. Itâs possible this could relate to Sandroneâs loyalty to the Tsaritsa.
Ironically, in Commedia dell'Arte, Sandrone is always a peasant.
(Warning I have not played Bloodborne, sorry)Â
Additionally, Sandroneâs design and backstory is very reminiscent of The Doll from Bloodborne. The Doll is used as a way for your character to level up (like Katheryne) and was created by a man named Gehrman in order to keep him company.Â
The Doll was made in the image of Lady Maria, a woman who Gehrman âheld affectionsâ for. When she disappeared, he became âobsessiveâ, and replicated her, even making their voices the same.
Sheâs very kind and sees the main character with respect, but wonders about her own creation and if her feelings are real.Â
From my knowledge about Bloodborne, itâs a game about women, blood, and misogyny. I am not going to write an analysis because I never played it so my source is trust me bro.Â
While nothing is confirmed, I still believe that Sandrone is inspired by Bloodborne (Lady Maria was in Arlecchinoâs character ref, after all) and that the themes in Bloodborne also apply to her design, in the sense of how she has a loss of control of herself. The Bloodborne: The Old Hunters DLC (where The Doll is introduced) has very similar elements to the story of the Narzissenkreuz children, where they are hunters trapped in a dream created by their own past.
Iâm also interested in knowing if she has the capability to walk on her own - weâve only ever seen her in the palm of her servantâs hand.
Soon to be added: elaborating on Sandroneâs flower being the Narcissus as well as Bobâs dog motifs. there's a lot to be said about these i'm just a lazy baby lately :)
Happy Sandrone Week, everyone! For this very special week, I wrote my longest fanfiction ever and included every ship suggestion I got. Hope you enjoy!!

Haruka isnât autistic-coded â he has an intellectual disability (and why that matters)
(AO3 Mirror)
A lot of people in the MILGRAM fandom (especially English-speaking MILGRAM fandom) state that Haruka is autistic-coded, as if itâs fact. Most recognize that Haruka is coded as disabled. (If you didnât recognize that, I hope this post will help to explain why.) However, to state that he is coded as autistic specifically is incorrect. Haruka is coded as intellectually disabled.
Now, there are likely two things that contribute to this issue. One is the invisibility of intellectual disability as a whole, and another is the fact that a lot of this has to do with things that only someone who speaks Japanese would understand (such as complex vs non-complex words in Japanese).
In this post, I plan to lay out what an intellectual disability is and how it differs from neurodivergencies such as autism or ADHD. After that, I want to discuss the way Haruka speaks and uses words, the symbolism in his MVs, and how this lends to him being coded as intellectually disabled. Finally, I want to discuss why this even matters at all. Because, in truth, viewing Haruka as autistic instead of intellectually disabled leaves the viewer misunderstanding his story in a huge way that seems far too common in English-speaking MILGRAM fandom. So, I hope you listen to what I have to say.
