Origin
Kelvin Andante was born █████ in ████████████ to parents ████████████████████. Records from ████████████ show that Andante was an academic child, placing highly in several Spelling Blees as well as achieving 'Most Improved' in the ███████████████████ hlandwriting competition 7 years in a row. There is not much information on Andante's teen years other than one picture of em in a report from ███████████████ where ey can be seen with various other unidentified teenagers.
The origin of Andante's temperature control related abilities may be related to eir engagement with ███████████████ - other records indicate that they were doing experiments along those lines at the time.
Arrival in the Core
Andante allegedly struggled with exposure to heat as an adult and, finding that life in ████████████ was too hot for em, apparently in an attempt to leave found eirself falling into the Core. Finding that temperatures in the Core varied massively with times of extreme heat, witnesses state that Andante grew unwell and underwent treatment to enable eir to handle external temperature shifts.
While Andante's medical records are heavily redacted due to eir asociation with ███████████████, information on eir blood type is accessible. It seems that this was AA originally before becoming █. It is currently Fire.
Musical Career
There is little evidence that Andante had been a musician prior to arrival in the Core. However, 14 months after eir arrival ey and fellow Core Resident Kelvin Drumsolo announced the formation of their indie-punk-folk-new wave-experimental band Kelvin and the Kelvins. While they initially only performed covers for friends at open mic nights they achieved some popularity within the Core and began writing their own music, often in collaboration with other musically orientated Core Mechanics.
Relationship
While Andante and Drumsolo have never publically confirmed their relationship, the pair have been close since Andante's arrival in the Core. Records show that the two have been married ██ times and divorced about as much. Andante, when asked, has stated that their relationship is 'fairly obvious' and 'the logical conclusion' and 'honestly a bit of a laugh but with a frankly surprising amount of emotional committement'.
Shadows
Andante was not originally part of the blaseball team the Core Mechanics as ey were in ████████████ while the team was winning their first championships. During the Descension, when it became clear that the team were going to return to Internet League Blaseball, Andante signed on and joined the Shadows. When asked ey stated that ey were not expecting to have to play due to general lack of splorting talent but wanted to be with eir fellow Mechanics and help out where possible.
The friendship bracelets that many members of the team now sport are credited to Andante, who would often be seen making them while on the Bench.
Active Play
In the Season 17 Elections, Andante was called up to the rotation in exchange for Core veteran Jolene Willowtree. Andante and Drumsolo were seen arguing after this and it was announced that Kelvin and the Kelvins were going on hiatus shortly after. The two were not seen together during the following siesta with Andante spending most of eir time with eir animatronic moose, a creation by Drumsolo named Kelvin B.
