Kelvin Drumsolo has been playing for the Core Mechanics for zir entire Blaseball career. Zir origin is unknown, and ze is notably reluctant to discuss zir life before Blaseball. Ze has stated that ze named zirself because ze thought that Nominative Determinism was 'funny' and ze 'wanted something to aim for'. Ze is notable for being literally on fire at all times as well as being capable of reaching temperatures unsafe for most humans. Ze has stated that unfortunately [[Incineration]] has more dimensions than regular temperature so this doesn't offer much protection.

Drumsolo is a member of avant-garde noise-classical-electronicore-Core band Kelvin and the Kelvins along with fellow Mechanic [[Kelvin Andante]]. The pair frequently write music discussing themes such as re-marriage and divorce, with lyrics which talk about inconveniences such as rearranging kitchen storage, stealing shampoo, finishing the milk and not getting more and not knowing how to fix an oven. The pair have confirmed that they {{#Choose: are married.|are divorced.|are kind of complicated.|got coffee the other day but in kind of a friends way but also maybe not?|are in the middle of an intense custody battle over a cactus named Spiky Jim.|are just friends for real this time they're just friends.|dare efinitely not on a date why would anyone assume that two bandmates just hanging out having a chat about music things would be on a date|are bandmates (oh my god they are bandmates)|are on the phone to their divorce lawyers right now}} Their musical releases frequently feature other members of the team with some claiming that the band should actually be called Kelvin and the Kelvins and the Core Mechanics+. In a press release the duo stated that their frequent contributors are valued friends and one of the ways their band ties into the local community, but that they have the very strict entry requirement of being named Kelvin. In addition, they stated that applicants with other temperature related names may discuss official membership which will be decided on a case-by-case basis.

Drumsolo resumed zir usual level of play following the Drumsolo, but stated that ze now existed 'in something like 2i-3j+k dimensions at once it's wild' and could see shrimp colours. This allowed zir to end the scientific debate on the colour of [[Unfire]], stating that it was meta-cyan.

It has been alleged that Drumsolo could reach Absolute Hot (theorized by some to be 1.416785(71)×10^32 degrees Kelvin) if ze gave an impressive enough performance. Pursuit of this goal has reportedly caused issues with zir social life and blaseball career, though Drumsolo responds to all questions on this by skittering away at high speeds playing the drums. This goal has also generated some controversy among physicists within the Core - some maintaining that potentially destroying everything by taking reality to its melting point is an unthinkable risk, while others feel that knowing the true maximum temperature would answer a lot of "very big questions" and be "pretty cool, or, I guess hot, haha" and that those opposed are "just a bunch of unscientific cowards." It has been noted that at least three of the scientists in favour were [[Kelvin Andante]] wearing different lab coats.

==Unsubstantiated Claims==
 +
Drumsolo has made several claims regarding the physicality of the Immaterial Plane, blaseball, zirself and other players which have been neither verified nor disproved by any scientific process and are considered of dubious scientific relevance. While it is indisputable that Drumsolo is an unusual entity who may have genuine insights, many of zir statements have triggered a great deal of discourse due to their percieved absurdity.

*Ze is hotter than [[Incineration]] in absolute terms, but the heat of incineration is a vector and so this does not offer any protection.
 +
*Ze is the hottest member of the Core Mechanics (numerous teammates have objected to this statement based on the interpretation of 'hot' as meaning physically attractive, and teammate [[Jolene Willowtree]] has cast doubts on the the statement as pertains to the interpretation of 'hot' as in the literal temperature sense).
 +
*Ze is the worst batter on the Core Mechanics and has been since the Descension/zir star count is inflated.
 +
*Ze is necessary for the Mechanics to perform well at Blaseball.
 +
*Ze exists in a Quaternion number of dimensions and is able to percieve colours out of the expected human visual range.
 +
*Unfire is meta-cyan in colour.
