Michael/Cotton Venus - Michael is a flamboyant and self-assured individual, working as the owner of Noir Clothing Store, a "fetishwear boutique". They are "out of drag" in everyday life, but transform into their drag persona, Cotton, for performances, where they are a "glamazon". Michael is confident, sassy, and possesses a sharp wit. They are business-savvy, helping to set up Candyland and manage its operations. They are loyal to their friends, particularly Robert and Dee. Michael owns a pet python named Siouxsie. They have a history with Oslow, who provides them with a mysterious contact card and a large sum of money for protection. Michael later discovers that Oslow was brutally murdered by Bianca, and that Bianca also orchestrated an explosion at their store, killing their assistant Jayden and Siouxsie. Driven by grief and a desire for revenge, Michael meticulously prepares to expose Bianca and her father, Dino, by burning incriminating surveillance footage onto CDs for various media outlets. Cotton is a fierce performer, using their stage to deliver powerful messages and defy expectations. They demand respect and operate with absolute authority.
