Cannon Or Original?: Cannon
Character Name: Caligosto Loboto
Aliases: Cali (was once called Dr. Loboto but doesn't like to be called that anymore)
Special Abilities: New to his psychic powers but seems to know them pretty well already. Also can preform minor dental skills and procedures.
Profession: New agent for the Psychonauts, was once a dentist but isn't anymore
Skills: He's a psychic, his main psychic skills being Pyrokinesis, Levitation, and Psi-Claw, and ability that is a mix of Shielding and TK by hardening psychic energy into blades around objects and body parts, that he will be teaching at camp soon. His robotic body parts tend to come in handy a lot, his eyes being equipped with night vison and the sharp-to-the-tip clawed metal arm attached to his right side can serve as a powerful bludgeoning/stabbing tool, though he doesn't like to use his arm as a weapon much, or at all.
Weaknesses: Cali is very sensitive when it comes to certain subjects (mostly having to do with sex or embarrassing situations or simply certain things no one else would understand) and has a tendency to faint whenever these situations occur, usually very quickly. Also, he has a tendency to not be as mature as he should be at this point, tending to act more like a teenager then the thirty year old man he is. He also can't replace his own eyes without getting his hand stuck in the socket (a laughable situation to be sure XD) and his eyes can sort circuit easily, even with something as simple as tears.
Special Note: Well, unless you think of the whole dentist who went insane and suddenly got a love for brains, no not really. Except for also the whole secret dead twin brother that has become an alternate personality that can astrally project itself in the real world. But that's another story completely.
Age: He's about 32 in age
Gender: Male (duh, how else could he be such a sex-magnet?)
Description: Cali is about 6.4 in height and about 120 pounds (he doesn't eat too much). He has jet-black hair, slightly curled at the ends and doesn't really comb it too much, but enough to keep it rather flat. His most obvious features are his robotic eyes and robotic arm. His robotic arm has a tri-pointed claw that serves as a hand at the end of his arm. The arm has a handy storage compartment that can have items stored in it for long periods of time (the arm also has a duel purpose as a spice grinder, but he doesn't like to mention this fact too much). His robotic eyes are both of the same design but are mismatched in color. His red eye is on the left side of his face, along with a stitch mark scar that goes through the eye, while the other eye is lime green, with no scar on that side. His skin is a cold icy blue, as if he had been drowned in the arctic.
Clothing Style/Uniform: Cali wears the official Psychonauts agent sweater, complete with his Psychonauts badge on it near the area his heart would be. Underneath his sweater are mainly the leather straps that hold his mechanical arm in place. He wears normal looking jeans (like Wal-Mart brand jeans too, he doesn't like the tight fitting stuff) that have pockets on either side of his knees on his jeans, and his thighs. His shoes are spats with gold buttons, not real gold but golden colored.
Family: His mother, Sheila Cardesso and father Harold Loboto (both deceased). He also had a twin brother who died, but his records were burned, so his name is unknown. (Recent info: Cali is also currently in love with Agent Marie Grestofski, to which he currently has had two twin boys with, his sons Nathaniel and Dimitri).
Personality: Cali is the sort of silly yet thoughtful in his ways. He tends to be nervous, and even a bit of a wimp at times, but he has the ability to step up to the plate when needed and can be a very intelligent person if the right topic comes up. Cali has a tendency to get depressed easily, mostly when it comes to people he likes. He's also curious and when something needs to be found out, he tries to push it until he knows what it is. But overall, he's a sweet guy (even if he did steal and entire camp of children's brains before) and always tries not to have people judge him for his reputation in the psychic world.
Quirks: Cali really doesn't like turtles considering one almost killed him. He shies away from normal turtles and if he sees the particular turtle that almost killed him along with it's owner (Sheegor and Mr. Pokeylope) he'd probably either run away scared or faint on the spot.
Likes: His lover (Marie), Asian food (particularly Chinese and Japanese food), cats, friends (old and new), freshly baked bread-foods, snowy and sunny weather, taking long walks in the woods, occasional naps, doing upgrades on his mechanical body parts, and comfortable loose clothes, as well as spicy food.
Dislikes: He doesn't like alcohol (not that he can't hold his alcohol) mostly because his friends (such as Marie) are greatly changed by alcohol/are alcoholics, so he avoids alcohol so his friends don't get any; dogs, turtles, enemies (old and new), people who hurt his friends, bland or stall foods (he'll eat them if he has to, but doesn't like them)
History: Cali was born into a family of medical specialist, his mother working as a nurse and his father, a dentist. Cali, like all boys, wanted to aspire to be just like his father, but at the age of sixteen, Cali lost a portion of his memory for no real reason. Cali forgot most of his childhood before he turned sixteen, forgetting mainly memories of his brother (some say that he was blocking the death of his twin brother from his mind to prevent mental scars). But Cali persevered and by the young age of 19, had soon graduated from a dentistry collage and went on to be a dentist at the place his father worked at.
Through his job, he met a woman named Lydia Zilch and fell in love with her. As the days went on, his job was starting to get stressful as more clients were starting to come into his office, not to mention the fact that his new lover, he had gotten pregnant. Before Cali even had a chance to get everything into order, Lydia broke up with him, thus sending him off the deep end. His insanity first seemed like nothing more then simply delirium, himself having the memory of ever dating Lydia in the first place now gone. But as the days went by, he tried to find love in his work, eventually gaining a tooth fetish.
He started pulling teeth from his patients for no real reason, at first starting with unimportant ones, then going onto ones that were large and important. There were times when he pulled out all of a clients teeth without anesthesia, often with that Cheshire Cat grin on his face that he is known for now. Cali even altered his own body, cutting off his arm and replacing it with a gleaming metal tri-pronged claw so he could pull out teeth without having to reach for dentistry tools. Cali even managed to get his claws on some more medevil styled dentist tool, which when he tried out the first time, exploded on him, costing him both his eyes (though one was still a little intact enough to see) which drove him to making himself a pair of robotic ones for him to use.
He hid these alterations though until actually working with his clients, and after the whole procedure was said and done, he'd give them enough laughing gas to make them forget what had happened. Well, while on one of his tooth plucking sprees, a new intern, who had no idea he liked to be disturbed during his sessions lately, came in to show him some X-rays and caught him pulling out the teeth of his client one by one, laughing and grinning like a demon. The intern managed to get the client out before anymore damage could be done and locked the mad doctor in until the white coats arrived. He was dragged out of the office, still clutching a bloody tooth from his client in his claw.
Cali was then sent to Thorney Towers, home for the demented, where he went on to make a name for himself as "Dr. Loboto D.D.S". Even the inmates were frightened of him, shying away from him greatly. The Orderlies were even more frightened of him once they discovered that he could do a lifetime of damage with even a fork in his possession. It was also found out that using his claw, he could cut through his straitjacket. So the Orderlies did what any sane person would do: they took away his arm and eyes and drugged him into a stupor. Cali, being as alone as he was and as high as he was, started talking to himself. He barely got any food or water, and often had to survive for months, just hearing his own voice in his cell.
When the asylum was finally shut down and Cali's sedation was no longer being giving to him, he got restless. He managed to blindly make his way into the courtyard. He found there easily and stayed there for a while, eventually stumbling upon one of his robotic eyes in the wreckage. It wasn't long after that he found his other eye and his arm again. He then managed to find the other inmates and keep them there as company for his insane self (ex. chaining Edgar to the floor, keeping Crispin to guard the elevator, etc.). He then made his home in the large section at the top of the tower, kept alive by many packs of instant ramen and other non-perishables that the Orderlies from before had kept up there.
When Oly finally arrived on the island and discovered the mad doctor, he made the man an offer, "Work with me and you'll be able to harvest the biggest tooth of them all: the brain!". Cali, in his insane stupor, didn't exactly have the knowledge to know that the brain was an organ and not a bone like teeth. Cali agreed immediately, and well....you probably all know what happened after that. Cali was blasted off the tower by that GOD DAMN TURTLE, Mr. Pokeylope (who he now regrets not making into soup BI).
He managed to survive the fall off the tower, landing in the waters of the lake and managing to pull himself onto the island before passing out from various head injuries. It was there that he was discovered by Agent Sasha Nein and taken to headquarters for evaluation. Thanks to much therapy and medication, Cali was soon on the track to sanity again. It was also at headquarters, that he was discovered to have psychic powers, due to the psitanium amounts at Thorney Towers. He underwent psychic training and was then sent to Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp to learn more from the psychic's already teaching there. With his stay at camp this year, he has found new love with Agent Marie Grestofski, who was teaching Telekinesis at camp this year, and the two are now currently smitten with each other, now also having twin boys to look after.

Role play sample: It is a beautiful morning at Whispering Rock. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, squirrels are happily being lit on fire by campers. All is peaceful. Witch was why it was so easy to hear the camp bus pull up. The campers near the parking lot drew their attention away from their activities to begin to mumble amongst themselves, "New camper?" "No, new counselor, they've been needing them." As it turned out, it was neither. The figure appeared to be a normal young man at first glance; if you were standing from a distance. His skin was an icy blue, as if he had been drowned. His chest bore a familiar-looking green sweater, his feet were enveloped in denim by loose baggy jeans with several pockets on it, but beneath, 18th century style boots with gold buttons could be seen. It wasn't the sweater, or any of the clothes the campers were staring at: it was a gleaming metal claw, innocently peeking out of the left sleeve.
It was also his face. Both of his eyes were made of metal, the left green, the right red with a scar going through it. It was still not just that attracting the campers attention: it was his smile. It is said you can tell a lot about a person and his said, "Hello, it's a pleasure to kill you today." His signature smile, witch he didn't know it, but was terrifying the campers into hiding. It also allowed them to recognize him. The other campers who had come this morning didn't recognize him, but everyone else did. It was Caligosto Loboto, the evil dentist! The campers whimpered hiding behind the various rocks on the premises as he reached into his pocket to retrieve something. "One of his evil devices no doubt." The campers panicked.
The campers watching in fear, he pulled out a...DS? Yes, a pink DS, to witch when he opened it, blared a familiar theme track (I'll give you a hint: OBJECTION!) and began to tap at the screen. "Stupid bus driver, not letting me play." He stuck his tongue at the bus driver as it sped off, the gate closing behind it.
"Well, now I can play 'Ace Attorney', in peace." he grinned that insane/playful grin and began to walk towards the main lodge, yelling 'OBJECTION' as he did, all the while, the campers staring at him with confusion.
