Names: Robo-Red & Blue-Bot

Origin: Built by Dr. Benigno Repperio in a parallel universe, then accidently displaced.

Age: 6 weeks.

Appearance (Robo-Red): 4ft tall, stocky and blocky with rounded-off corners and edges. His head is sculpted to suggest he is wearing a hard hat with ear protection, goggles, and a respirator mask.
He is primarily red. His face (where the “safety equipment” isn’t), neck, upper arms, hands, and thighs are white. Blue is an accent color (thin stripes here and there to break up the red, and the occasional bit and bob).
His whole body has the smooth, shiny, quality of automotive paint.

Appearance (Blue-Bot): Exactly like Robo-Red, but red and blue are swapped.

Motivation: Doing Good They are inherently caring and helpful, and have difficulty understanding why people shouldn’t have what they need.

Other Complications:

Outsiders - Robo-Red and Blue-Bot are homeless, and they neither want nor need one. They have no money, and don’t want any. If they find something broken, they fix it. If they find a mess, they clean it up. If someone needs help, they help them.
In an ideal world none of this would be a problem, but the world isn’t ideal. Various authorities have sketchy reports of these two and while they may not be sure what to do about them, something will be done.

Toyetic - Robo-Red and Blue-Bot look like they’re from a kids show, or are product mascots.
They were carefully designed far from the uncanny valley. Because they move in a comforting human-like way, and have warm voices with natural affect, they are easily mistaken for people in elaborate costumes.
When people understand they are robots they’re often treated like cute things, instead of people.

Responsibility - They see themselves as the custodians of Dr. Repperio’s technology, which they recognise could be misused, and politely refuse to be examined.
They are each one half of Violaceous, who they do not like, and consider him a last resort.
