Biography:
The twins Candy-Corn and Praline spent the early days of their childhood living in a cabin somewhere on the southeastern border of Idaho. Out of fear that the United States of America was secretly infiltrated by a group of Marxists that were trying to destroy the country from within, they were kept out of public schools and received an education in the privacy of their own home. While their mother acted as their academic teacher during the day, at night, and especially during the weekends, she spent many hours training them for a second civil war. In preparation for this event, Candy-Corn & Praline learned many skills that would help them survive in the wilderness if they found themselves separated from their parents. By the age of ten, they already learned how to grow fruits and vegetables, start a fire, and they were able to ascertain what plants were edible or poisonous. They were also adept at using a variety of firearms and were competent in a variety of survival techniques.
Unlike the matriarch of the family, who showed compassion and patience, their father was a gruff man with a short temper. Although he had a reputation as a local dog breeder and often sold a variety of canines to close friends or neighbors, in actuality, he made the majority of his wealth by hosting illegal dog fights. This unlawful business venture was held on his property and every week a large crowd paid a good amount of money to attend. Those watching the competition would then bet large sums of money on the outcome. To make the night more entertaining, a considerable amount of alcohol and prescription pills were sold. For the dogs that were severely injured, and had to be put down, Candy-Corn & Praline were tasked with performing the executions.
Eventually, local authorities got wind of the activities taking place on the property. However, without probable cause, the sheriff was powerless to investigate the matter. Another issue he came across was that the individuals complaining about the money they had lost were typically not upstanding citizens. They were usually drunkards, those with substance abuse problems, or individuals with a previous criminal history. Still, the curiosity of the sheriff was piqued so he decided to take a closer look at the proprietor of the property. What he had found was that the owner of the parcel of land had an arrest warrant issued in his name for failing to appear before a judge on federal firearm charges. The United States Marshalls were immediately called and when they went to the cabin, a shootout occurred. The two agents assigned to the case along with three of the town's deputies perished in a hail of bullets. A standoff with local authorities followed and the sheriff called the FBI for assistance.
When Candy-Corn & Praline's father refused to surrender, the house was bombarded with gunfire. In a retaliatory move, he told his children to release the dogs from their cages. A swarm of twelve Pit Bulls, eight Rottweilers, and ten German Shepherds then attacked the federal agents. As the dogs were shot and killed, the family returned fire. Heavily armed and with an abundance of bullets stored in their home, the family was able to hold off the government agents for three days.
Eventually, an FBI sniper managed to kill both parents and with no other option left, Candy-Corn & Praline fled into the forest surrounding their home. Hunted down like wild animals, the children were eventually captured by a corrupt federal agent. With ties to a large sex trafficking ring, this individual had hoped to receive a pretty penny for the children.
On the night they were to be sold into slavery, Kismet interrupted the proceedings. He tore open the cages they were held captive in and intervened on their behalf. He then resented them with an offer for a brighter future which they gladly accepted. A swath of death followed as the corrupt federal agent along with the sex traffickers met their untimely end. Soon after, the twins found themselves living at the farmhouse.
​
Due to the high level of intelligence that Candy-Corn and Praline possess, they were assigned to the Junkyard Dogs, a secretive team of Heathens whose main task is to build Kismet whatever he needs to complete his mission.

Biography:
Marzipan was an extremely bright child. His high level of intelligence and lack of social awareness often caused him to be misunderstood. For these reasons, and because he followed a strict vegan lifestyle, Marzipan was often picked on from an early age. While in middle school, his troubles worsened. On most days, and after his classes had ended, he was relentlessly hounded by a group of teenage thugs. At home, his life was no better thanks to a narcissistic mother who would consistently put her needs first. Always trying to snag a rich man, she often left Marzipan home alone when she went out on dates. With little to no food in the house, he would often go to bed hungry.
At the age of thirteen, and after an altercation with a group of neighborhood hoodlums that murdered his mother and drug-dealing boyfriend, Marzipan was taken in by Kismet. Ever since his arrival at the farmhouse, Sugar-Plum has prepared an entirely separate menu for the boy. Every morning, and in a show of gratitude for the variety of options she would provide at each meal to satisfy his dietary preferences, Marzipan would give Sugar-Plum a big kiss on her cheek.
Although he remains small framed, and light in weight, Marzipan did manage to pack on some muscle over the years, thanks to the daily workouts he participated in with Butter-Crunch, Rock-Candy, and Fudge.
Due to his high intelligence, Marzipan was assigned to the Junkyard Dogs, a secretive team of Heathens whose main task is to build Kismet whatever he needs to complete his mission.

Biography:
Before he became a member of the Heathens, Rock-Candy was a dominating high school varsity wrestler and a member of the chess club. Most of his brethren would agree that he has a muscular body very similar to Butter-Crunch and the brains of Butterscotch. Like most of the people Kismet has added to his brood over the years, Rock-Candy came from a home that was less than ideal.
Since the city they were living in was only growing more crowded as the years passed, and under the impression, the planet could not sustain the human race for much longer, Rock-Candy's parents felt an overwhelming need to cull the population. After attending a few seminars, and reading multiple books on global warming, they became big proponents of eugenics. To follow through with their dreams of saving the planet from not only humanity but also gaseous cows and too much carbon dioxide, they decided to move to a small town in the middle of nowhere to finish concocting a scheme that could potentially eliminate millions of people. With the help of their minister, and along with a group of very intelligent people from their church, they eventually managed to raise enough money to obtain uranium from a corrupt politician. Over many months, and in the basement of their church, they successfully built a small nuclear device. With the capability to attack only one target, and to do the most amount of feasible damage, they decided to detonate the bomb within Yellowstone National Park. Since their theoretical models had shown that this type of attack could ignite the Yellowstone Supervolcano if placed in the correct area of the northeastern part of the Yellowstone Caldera near Hayden Valley, they decided to throw a huge celebration. In the hopes that their malevolent lord Baphomet would bless their grand designs of death and destruction, they decided to sacrifice many able-bodied children in his honor. One of these youngsters was a ten-year-old Rock-Candy, and as a great honor to his parents, who concocted this grand scheme, he would be the first sacrifice scheduled that evening. Before the boy met an untimely end, this small town received an unexpected visitor. Soon after, Rock-Candy found himself at the farmhouse.
Due to his high level of intelligence, Rock-Candy was assigned to the Junkyard Dogs, a secretive team of Heathens whose main task is to build Kismet whatever he needs to complete his mission.
​
Within the group, Rock-Candy and Gumdrop have the closest relationship. However, one would not expect that to be true when looking at their dynamic from the outside because they both tease one another excessively. While Rock-Candy will mock Gumdrop for being as old as dirt, in return, the fallen Cherubim will disparage the young man over his overly muscular physique because he believes a human can only be either smart or strong, but never both.
Gumdrop will often place Rock-Candy on security detail or have him carry heavy stuff around the junkyard as punishment for always coming up with the better insult during their brief bouts of bickering. When the barb is exceptionally planned, and he cannot come up with a quick-witted response, Gumdrop will have the young man dig a deep ditch somewhere on the property.

Soon after that incident, which wiped out her entire family, she was taken in by Kismet.

Biography:
The very brilliant and extremely competent Candy-Apple is the smartest member of the Junkyard Dogs. She absolutely loves rockets and at one point during her childhood, she even dreamed of being an astronaut. At the age of ten, her life abruptly changed on the day her parents brought her to their congregation for what they called "A Going Away Party." With everyone from the community gathered inside their town hall, the minister gave out plastic cups filled with a pink liquid. While those around her drank the concoction and quickly collapsed to the ground, Candy-Apple remained fixated on Kismet who was standing in the corner of the room. After a brief conversation, he gave her an important decision to make. Either she could join her parents in hell after sacrificing herself to a useless god that he despised, or she could continue her journey in this plane of existence by coming with him. Without hesitation, Candy-Apple chose a life at the farmhouse.
Although she has the skills to make an excellent soldier, Candy-Apple would rather sit behind a computer desk and spend all day launching missiles at her enemies. Ever since she first came to the farmhouse and learned what a military drone is and what it can do, Candy-Apple has begged Kismet to get her one.
​
In addition to her high intellect, Candy-Apple is also an excellent computer programmer and hacker. For fun, she creates software viruses that will render the computer systems of Kismet's enemies inoperable for short bursts of time. From her computer desk, she watches with glee when these companies get stuck in lousy stock trades. She often laughs out loud when they lose millions of dollars in the blink of an eye. Such antics have become an enjoyable pastime amongst her brethren at the junkyard and they will often wager how much she can make someone lose. Thus far, Candy-Apple is proud to call Viktor Konnikov, Giacomo Grimaldi, Denis Morrisey, Kung Chee Tong, and the members of Majestic 12 her biggest victims.
​Due to her level of intelligence, Candy-Apple was assigned to the Junkyard Dogs, a secretive team of Heathens whose main task is to build Kismet whatever he needs to complete his mission.
