Cora

The round scout with one big lens eye and a map of everywhere.

Cora is the smallest headliner after Patch and by far the most curious. A round mint-green scout bot with one big camera-lens eye and a periscope antenna, Cora has mapped every alley of Coghaven and most of the gear gardens beyond — and is convinced the best discovery is always one hill further.

Personality

Cora asks questions the way other bots breathe. The lens eye zooms, the periscope swivels, and the map case is always full of half-finished sketches annotated with things like “smells like ozone, probably fine.” Cora’s curiosity has gotten the crew lost a dozen times — and gotten them found twice as often.

In the revue

Cora leads the adventure numbers: the gear-garden expedition, the great map-unfurling scene (the map is forty feet long and still growing), and the recurring gag where Cora’s compass points at the audience and Cora whispers, “Interesting.”
