Cereal

**Cereal** is a cereal bowl Shopkin.

## Description

### Personality

Cereal is the epitome of a watchdog: loving to her friends, a menace to anyone who endangers them. Despite not having a heavy vocabulary, usually saying a few words at a time as well as panting, barking, and laughing, Cereal is still a smart, if not animalistic Kindi Kid. However, she does anger pretty easily, and is not above getting revenge when she feels wronged.

Cereal is a turquoise bowl of cereal with a yellow rim. There are pink Cheerio's inside of her, and she has a turquoise spoon inside the bowl.

## Abilities

### Origin

Cereal has large indestructible teeth that let her give a powerful bite. Her tail can also be swung around like a whip.

* **Bite Barrage:** Rush forward while biting every enemy in your path.
* **Tailspin:** Chase your tail in circles, knocking back and stunning enemies as your go.

## Trivia

* One of the preliminary character designs of the Monsters almost entirely resembles Cereal.

* She is the first four-legged Kindi Kid.

## Behind the Scenes

### Name and basis

Cereal is based on the food of the same name. It is a traditional breakfast made from processed cereal grains. It is traditionally eaten as breakfast primarily in Western societies. Warm cereals like porridge and grits have the longest history. Ready-to-eat cold cereals, appearing around the late 19th century, are most often mixed with milk (traditionally cow's milk), but can also be paired with yogurt instead or eaten plain. Fruit or nuts are sometimes added. Many breakfast cereals are produced via extrusion. Some companies promote their products for the health benefits that come from eating oat-based and high-fiber cereals. In the United States, cereals are often fortified with vitamins but can still lack many of the vitamins needed for a healthy breakfast. A significant proportion of cereals are made with high sugar content. Many are marketed towards children, feature a cartoon mascot, and may contain a toy or prize.

### Voice

In the TV series, and where sound clips are used, Cereal's voice is provided by Flaminia Cinque.
