Koutali D'Addario is a cyborg living in Walter Manor.

## Appearance

What's left of his human parts are hidden under cloth with a titanium chassis over them for support. Around his mouth, on his torso, on the interior side of his forearms and on the back of his calves are open spaces not covered with metal for easy access to his fleshy bits underneath. He usually wears a mauve sweater, jeans, and his characteristic teal coat with gold shoulderpads, but he's not adverse to taking them off when they're inconvenient. He has a fantastic sense of style and when the occasion permits he will happily flaunt his expansive wardrobe.

In the first stages of his necrified form, Dionysus, he has a skull painted onto his faceplate, the cloth on his mouth ripped in half vertically/ the cloth over his face is removed exposing his bare skull, the copper vents broken off showing the green glow of necrification underneath. His outfit color scheme changes from teal to a red-orange with more purple and grey elements.

## History

He was born in Vicenza, Italy in 1972, working in his mother's family restaurant alongside many of his relatives. In his teenage years he got involved with the mafia and did many things he'd come to regret later on in his life. Eventually, after murdering the second in command of the mafia for his crimes against him, Koutali was forced to move to America in 1997 with no chance of ever contacting anyone back home again.

He was hardly able to adapt, falling into a deep depression for months before finally getting on his feet again by working at a restaurant again. For his actions against the mafia, though, in 2002 he was murdered. His body was thrown into a ditch where it was picked up by Lisa Callisto for experimentation. She believed he could bring him back to life because of her previous experiments along the line of life and death. While she was reanimating him, she also came across Victor, experimenting on him when she got bored with Koutali. This has led to Koutali having fleeting memories of him, even before they properly met.

Lisa dropped Koutali off at Walter Manor, hoping he would be taken in by the others. He was hired by Peter VI and now has a job keeping the Walter Workers fed. He met Sprint at the manor and the two became friends, though this friendship fell apart over the years. This part of his life is covered in depth in The Stranger.

In the 2020s he served as Captain's best man at his wedding. He was later kidnapped by Rook for his experimentation to create optimal undead cyborgs like him. He later reunited with his childhood friend Giovanni D'Addario, and the two were platonically married.

In 2022, after Victor returned from Dimension Omega, Victor took Koutali back to Omega in order to find closure and finally put an end to Henry, whom Victor theorized survived their last encounter. He changed his personal style and adopted a former name of his, Alonso, in order to show his change into a new person.

## Personality

He's apathetic, keeping to himself and his kitchen mostly. He seems to be reasonable and responsible but he makes many mistakes and is prone to force himself into dangerous situations. Deep down he does care about the other bots and people around the manor, but it would be hard to see at first. He has a hard time holding relationships like friendships with others because of his misfortune with them in the past and also his attitude can be a bit much for some. He tends to push away the people he holds closest because he doesn't believe he deserves good things to happen to him. This has also led to him becoming very self-destructive, even when others have called him out on his behavior.

It's not too hard to rile him up but he's extremely passive-aggressive about it, of course if pushed far enough he will snap. He tries to keep a hold on his emotions, though, especially after the mistakes of his past. That doesn't mean he doesn't hold grudges, but he tries to be more forgiving because he realizes that if he can be forgiven and well liked by the others, then anyone can.
