Description
Personality
Chiitan is a rambunctious and mischievous robotic baby, designed primarily for comic relief. He's prone to fits of temper and displays surprising strength for his size, often reacting with loud, glass-shattering cries when things don't go his way. Despite his occasional outbursts, his playful nature and interactions with his siblings, particularly Uran, highlight a surprisingly endearing personality for a character intended as comedic fodder. His actions, while often disruptive, are largely driven by a childlike desire for attention and affection.
Abilities
Chiitan, despite his infant-like appearance, possesses several superhuman abilities: * **Superhuman Strength:** He is capable of feats of strength beyond that of a normal human infant. The exact extent is not specified, but it's implied to be significant. * **Superhuman Cry:** His cries are incredibly powerful, capable of shattering glass and causing tremors. This suggests a level of vocal power far exceeding normal human capabilities. While he doesn't exhibit any other advanced technological abilities or powers like his siblings, his strength and vocal power are notable superhuman abilities for a robotic baby. His abilities are primarily used for comedic effect.
