Mister Dough

Made for Imber’s contest :)

Brief explanation of design, thought process etc (doesn't need to be long):

Literally can’t put this into paragraph form so here’s a bunch of bullet points to show off how I incorporated my two prompts lol

* Croissant = Made of different types of bread, horns/mandible things(?) on tail are shaped like croissants, “blood” is chocolate since chocolate is typically used to fill croissants, sugar on tail since that’s a popular topping choice, flaky skin to represent flaky dough, oven motif, various other things like the mold and bugs and whatnot lol
* Frankenstein = Green mold, thermometers in neck, made out of various types of bread baked/smushed together as well as his body being a mash-up of different features, tattered/patched-up clothes, a very minor mad scientist motif with his goggles to represent the fact that Frankenstein was made by a mad scientist alongside the little logo on his shirt that implies he was made by/works for somebody, general brute-like design (ik Frankenstein is normally depicted with very square shape language but dough isn’t typically like. square and is a lot more lumpy and soft so I went with that instead), undead motifs with his general gross-looking appearance and rats/bugs since Frankenstein is basically a fancy zombie lol, bits of black hair, also the oven motif because Frankenstein is canonically afraid of fire, additional robot motif due to the whole “reanimating with electricity” thing
* Fun Fact! The levers on his back act as a signal to when whatever in his oven is down as well as the controls for the oven itself :)

\*Name of character: He doesn’t have an actual name but I’ve been calling him Frankentwist lmao

\*Personality: Mansplain manipulate misogyny

\*Backstory: A robot servant who was made by “Miss Whiskers”, the owner of a small bakery. He was originally made to be a sort of quirky oven creature-thing that could quickly be able to make treats while interacting with customers. Miss Whiskers made him from scratch with little robotics knowledge and, being the kooky old woman she is, decided to make his cosmetics out of actual dough (because it would be fun and silly!) She did get somebody else to do the code for the AI, however, that “somebody” being some shady dude she found online that she didn’t know. Unbeknownst to her, the “code” he sent her was actually a digitalized demon so when she released her creation to the public some. pretty bad things happened um. Some of them were due to the poor quality of the robot, with the heated insides burning some of his body and whatnot, but most of them had to do with his behavior towards customers and strange “malfunctions”. Eventually, Whiskers became terrified of what the bot could do and locked him in the storage room. He rotted there for awhile while the bakery’s reputation went down due to Whisker’s age and declining mental state interfering with quality of work. Meanwhile, the creation himself was content with his situation, enjoying “eating” the trash (his main food source) that was all around him and the company of the various rats and bugs that fed on his skin. However, when the trash ran out he became restless and began banging on the door to be let out and threatened to kill Whiskers unless she released him. She, scared for her life, did and they ended up reaching a compromise soon after. He would stay out in storage as long as Whiskers fed him her trash via placing it in his oven. This worked for awhile until small amount of customers = barely any trash = angry robot bread demon :(

However, there is *another* type of trash he accepts… (people. He wants people and will manipulate an old lady to get them).

\*Additional details: Scared of water and being locked in the freezer 😔
