Description
People seemed to like Kathi, so I put some time in today to play with a few more appliance robot designs. Partial credit goes to for the concept behind Chilli and Sllushi. These won't be major characters; rather, they're part of an effort on my end to fill out the X-Crew universe and make it feel more complete. Additional info on each specific bot below.

Chilli:
A former industry bot, Chilli and her 'sister' Sllushi was adopted by pop idol Tarin as servants and companions to her entourage. Chilli is proud of her carrying capacity, and prides herself on being useful. That said, her pride tends to get the better of her sometimes, as she has been known to insist on feeding people heavy amounts of food, either to dodge expiry dates or just to show what a good bot she is. She's also quite fond of her own girth, and doesn't hesitate to show off her mass to those who like that sort of thing.

Sllushi:
A more soft spoken and socially awkward bot (the company blames a programming error), Sllushi has nevertheless endeared herself to Tarin's circle. She often feels like she exists in her sister Chilli's shadow, and will thus do her best to prove her own usefulness. This leads to her constantly begging to be filled so that she can properly serve guests, as well as herself sneaking a bit too much food to stuff into her compartment. Sllushi will behave around guests, but with friends, she can be quite needy, and thrives on attention.

Merlot:
A wine bot formerly employed by the crime lord Kang, Merlot was freed when Kang's bodyguard Mina turned on him and destroyed his estate. In the months following, Merlot drifted from station to station, developing an interest in gambling and casino culture. She eventually settled down on the planet Mammon, home of the largest casino in the known universe. Now employed by said casino, she enjoys tangling herself up in the affairs of guests both rich and otherwise, making herself a part of their stories, for better or worse.
