I had a lot of fun designing them, I wanted to give them all distinct themes & colours for each of them! I hope it turned out alright!!
Piani is NOT Cadenza's creation, nor do they have any past association with each other. I tried to make it clear by her and Capriccio/Crybot looking very different despite both being robots. Cadenza's robots all resemble puppets in some way! Cadenza would never abandon or harm someone like that.
Mikeal Cadenza-Crygor (he/him)
Cadenza the head of the household, along with being a scientist and part-time DJ for Club Spice. He took up science after the passing of his father who was a famous scientist. He overworks himself and struggles to sleep all in the name of maintaining his father's legacy...
Cadenza is rather quiet and deadpan, but he's a kind, dorky man beneath it. He can be very critical of Crybot, however. Uses rhythm & frequencies to create formulas & robots - his inventions are focused around entertainment.
Capriccio "Crybot" Cadenza (he/him)
Capriccio Is Cadenza's first ever robot. He was built to keep Cadenza company, but was later reworked to perform for the masses as a game show host! He's quite bold, boisterous and egoistical, being extremely dedicated to his shows and rather full of himself.
He's also a big sweetheart & very generous, never demeaning others and always putting people before himself. He treats the world as a stage, literally. He cherishes a smile more than anything.
Dorothy "Dotty" Cadenza (she/they)
Dorothy is Mikeal's cousin! She's a music idol & scientist! Or at least... she longs to be. Dotty was very inspired by her cousin's work, so she ended up moving in with him and became his lab assistant. Wanting to learn how to aid people with his rhythmic science techniques!
She's very kind, but also quite stern and isn't afraid to speak her mind. She still adores the macabre despite having a very cutesy look, enjoys scaring Cadenza & Capriccio with her pet tarantula, and generally pranking the two. She refuses to scare Piani however and is quite protective over her.
Piani is Cadenza's adopted robot daughter. She was abandoned in a forest, and Cadenza & Capriccio found her- Capriccio convinced his creator to take in the poor child, and eventually the man conceded. Piani feels indebted to them, and tries to assist around the lab by cleaning and helping Capriccio cook! Even if Cadenza insists it isn't necessary, she still tries her best to help him!
She's a bit soft spoken, but also quite strong willed and ambitious. She idolises Dotty and goes to her for a lot of things, seeing her as a safe space. Piani still loves her father however, and gets very giddy when she's allowed to help him make something.
