[LEAD ROLE] ~80 words/12 lines

Includes grunts/sfx.

An intelligent goldfish with a robot body, living life in a society re-embracing postmodern retro-90's culture. He’s currently living with Palmtop, his ditzy roommate who is determined to prove himself useful. Introverted and a bit awkward, Check normally keeps to himself, tinkering away at his makeshift workshop. He has a hard time expressing himself and often comes off as stoic and cold, which isolates him from his peers. Check also struggles to convey his feelings for his friend and ends up roped up in his hijinks.

Check is level-headed, smart and pragmatic, and has an articulate yet sincere voice. Possibly comes off as a bit dorky or awkward. He has a deeper voice than Palmtop.
