Character · Book 8, A Parade of Horribles
Corcunda (Corky and Porky)
A mantaur cut in two by Split Personality seasons ago in a Penis Parade brawl: Corky, the right half, the dancer who loved Dong Quixote, kept as the Lady Dominators' gimp; Porky, the left, who disliked Dong and left to run the hidden Stage Performance Guild in a white zippered suit — 'If my other half dies, I die, too.' Grigori joins them upside down in the Gasworks; Grull comes for the rejoined man for 'not being troo'; he puts his scarf on Dong and carries him at the god.

Arc
Corky waves from garage three's shadow in a black zippered suit, split between the eyes (ch. 13), asleep in the GTO under domination magic every race (ch. 19, ch. 58); the quest to reunite him with Dong and then with himself (ch. 13, ch. 24). Porky, in white, on his back in a five-hundred-seat theatre with a stuck zipper — 'My, my, aren’t you muscly?'; 'If my other half dies, I die, too'; his devotion to Grull left with the split; he wants Dong beaten (ch. 58). He wears Dong's scarf; 'Why did you hate me?' (ch. 60). Joined upside down, two half-hearts glowing, one name (ch. 65); Grull's mark; 'You have been nothing but a shining light in my life'; the scarf back to Dong; 'an honor to be ridden one last time' (ch. 66).
