TV HEAD - Ricky.

Ricky is a robot TV-head with no actual personality, just programmed mostly to say stuff and react to it. Since he’s also made in the 50’s a lot of slang from that era is programmed into him as well. He might get attached to who ever is owning him, meaning that he might take in some of their personality traits as well. Other than that, he’s a pretty cheerful character and stays loyal to humans. In some way, he is also incredibly smart because he has every channel built into his head so he feeds off to it.

Appearance: Ricky is a pretty tall figure with limbs that can detach and attach since he’s a man made object. His head is a TV which can turn on and off, switch to different channels, faces, etc. He dresses mostly how the owner wants him to, but since it’s the 50’s he’s usually in suits, button ups, dress pants etc. He has multiple boxes with things like wires and buttons so it’s easier to fix him if something goes wrong. His TV head is an old model that has antennas, so depending on his mood they might go up or down. Even though he doesn’t have a face, he does have eyebrows on his TV-screen.
