Head
Head looks innocent and has a child-like personality. It has basic needs, such as eat, and play. Head doesn’t really think too deeply about the situation. It is in control and doesn’t seem to realise its impact on Body. However, when harmed by Body, Head turns evil.

Body
Body on the other hand, is the adult of the group. It wants freedom and desperately wants independence. Head is too heavy and too controlling for Body.
