Meet Swirly Lion, From Austin, TX

Swirly Lion refuses to acknowledge that an ice cream cone balanced on their head is inherently silly, and will stare down anyone who suggests otherwise with their robot eyes until they apologize. The holographic armor shifts through colors depending on Swirly's mood, which means everyone always knows when they're annoyed (which is often). They carry a glowing orb that serves no practical purpose except to make them feel mysterious, and it's working. One time Stormy Eagle tried to out-cool them with a skateboard trick and Swirly just stood there rotating the orb slowly until the skateboard fell over. The ear cuff catches light at all the wrong moments, like it's mocking them. Swirly Lion has opinions about everything and the energy of someone who is always three seconds away from a sarcastic comment.
