The Cakineer (otherwise known as the Cake Engie) is a type of engineer made by YouTuber STBlackST which is being controlled by a parasitic space cake. They have two main variations: Young and Adult.

Appearance

The Cakineer looks almost the exact same as any common engineer, with the exception that there is always a slice of space cake (with a plate) on its head. It can be found as both Red and Blu, although adult Cakineers are only found as Blu.

Behavior and Personality

A Cakineer is born when a normal engineer becomes attached to a parasitic space cake. Young Cakineers can be commonly found throughout the world, usually hiding within their toolbox homes. They can be lured out if they smell the scent of cake. If something is asked of them, like to build something, they will usually decline unless offered cake. However, the end result can sometimes be underwhelming. Most young Cakineers are docile and choose not to interfere with anyone, choosing rather to spend most of their time inside their toolbox homes. Cakineers can also be somewhat loyal, shown when a Cakineer saved a soldier from cannibals even though the soldier abandoned him. Adult Cakineers, however, are the complete opposite of young Cakineers. They are much more aggressive and dangerous, and are more of a hive mind, controlled by Master Cake. The reason for the darastic change in personality is that the Space cakes only fully take control of their engineer when it reaches adulthood, as while still young, Cakineers still mostly have free will. If an adult Cakineer is encountered, it will be highly aggressive towards specific targets it is ordered to destroy by master cake. It is commonly found saying things to intimidate the target such as "You cannot remain hidden for long" or "You must be terminated". The adult Cakineer is a type of cyborg, as it talks in a robotic voice, and has a built-in HUD, making it easier to find its targets.

Powers and Abilities

Young Cakineers don't seem to have any unique powers, apart from the ability to not have their signature slice of cake they have on their head fall off. Adult Cakineers, on the other hand, have a plethora of powers that they use to attack their targets. These powers include Tyra ability to teleport at will, shoot crit rockets out of nowhere, and scan for targeted beings it is ordered to destroy. The Space cakes, on their own, are also able to float across spaces in order to get around. They also can cloak once on a young Cakineer's head, but choose instead to be disguised as normal cake and carried around on the Cakineer‘s head. The reason they do this is currently unknown.

Faults and Weaknesses

The Cakineer has many faults that can happen in its young stage, but once they reach adulthood, many of their faults are fixed. This section is going to be split into two smaller sections, showing weaknesses for both the Young Cakineer and the adult Cakineer.

Young Cakineer

The young Cakineer has many faults, due to the fact that it is not fully converted until it is an adult. These faults include:

  • Cake can be knocked off Cakineer's head with enough force
  • As durable as a normal engineer would be
  • Has to restart the conversion proccess if cake is removed from engineer
  • Cake has no control over a engineer when not attached to one
  • Cake can be eaten

Adult Cakineer

The adult Cakineer is much more efficient than young Cakineer, possessing unique abilities that the young Cakineer cannot access until full conversion. They still have weaknesses, though. Some of these include

  • As durable as a normal engineer
  • Loud
  • Can be damaged by its own rockets
  • Can be snuck up on / avoided if the area you are in isn't scanned

Trivia

  • Adult Cakineers seem to operate in a hive mind, evidenced by when the main Cake operation dimension was destroyed, all Cakineers were destroyed along with it.
  • Cakineers are just foot soldiers, as the true leader is the Master Cake.
  • Engineers are studied to wear the cakes on their heads instead of eating them due to the engineers finding them "cute"
