## Appearance

Roby is a baby yellow loggerhead sea turtle with reddish-brown scales on his head and flippers, reddish-brown carapace, brown eyes, and ten brown freckles.

## Personality

Roby is crafty, sneaky, and proud. He loves attention, which he is willing to obtain by lying about his life as a "great adventurer" at a very young age. This causes him to become Ricky's rival for Ella's attention and he's willing to go beyond words to support his lies when Ricky challenged him outside of the Reef. However, Roby is not an antagonist because deep down he's a very insecure turtle. He has overprotective parents who forbid him from going outside his home, but he wants to explore and make new friends due to his loneliness. When his lies are exposed, he felt remorseful and apologizes to Ella and her friends for lying to them.

## Relationships

### Ricky

In "The Rival", Roby first met Ricky and his friends outside of the reef village when he saved Ella after one of her flippers got tangled by a seaweed. Ricky, who also has a crush on Ella, becomes jealous of Roby for charming her and attempts to expose his lies, but instead, he decided to challenge him outside of the reef to win her affections.

### Ella

In "The Rival", Roby has a crush on Ella since he saved her when one of her flippers got tangled by a seaweed outside of the reef village. He did everything he could to win her over by lying to her about being a great adventurer and he manages to charm her. When his lies are exposed near the end of the episode, he apologizes to her and they become friends. In the second season, he returnes to the coral reef to visit her, as promised, though he accuses Ella to be egoistic, because she wasn't willing to gift him a seastar.

### Pipo and Annabel

Roby first met Pipo and Annabel when they all with Ricky and Ella outside of the reef village. When he visits the village, Roby tells them and their classmates a whole bunch of lies about himself in order to gain their attention. Later when Ricky challenges Roby outside of the reef, Annabel serves as a judge for them but she gets herself distracted very easily. When Ricky got himself inside of a lobster cage and is about to pull away, his friends and Roby all work together to save him. After his lies are exposed near the end of "The Rival", he apologizes to them for lying and they all become his friends.

### Sammy

Roby is shown to respect Sammy as the leader of the reef village when he visited it, but he boasts about himself being a young adventurer to him in order to gain his attention. His boasting, however, leads to Sammy went off to search for his parents after Sammy saw him wandering all by himself in the great ocean.

### Roby's parents

Roby lives with his parents outside of the reef village and they treated him like a child, forbidding him from wandering off by himself outside his home. At one point when Pipo asked Roby about them when he visited the village, he lied that his parents are killed and that he's all alone in the great ocean in order to prevent the reef inhabitants from finding out how overprotective his parents are. In the second season, they are also shown to be quite greedy and rude towards Sammy and Shelly, who hosted them at their place in the episode "Breakfast included".

## Trivia

* At one point in "The Rival", Roby's name is misspelled as "**Robby**" in the Netflix English subtitles.
* Roby shares the same model as one of Coralia's son.
* Is likely that Roby actually traveled to many places in the ocean, since he's able to describe them, though his parents were always at his side, never abandoning him as he claimed; so the stories he told to the reef inhabitants are lies just in part.
