Well everyone is interested to know exactly what balrog is (He's a toaster in my opinion) but what i'm incredibly interested in is his relation to misery and her family. Cause he was also cursed by the crown which supposably stopped him from flying but i'm thinking that he might be some kind of pet of jenka, misery or ballos. There must be some kind of relation to the family that got him cursed.
What do you all think?

I don't think he was "created".

I have a theory that he's one of the killer robots that attacked the Island (possibly during the second, or even first, Demon King's reign), but due to his broken personality chip he ended up "befriending" Misery and getting cursed in the process.

Maybe Balrog used to be human, but was turned into a toaster-like being by the magic of the Demon Crown.

Possibly, but i don't really want to think that balrog is a robot. Even if he is i will try my best to not accept it

He means it's weird that Dave doesn't want to accept Balrog as being a robot, but he's perfectly ok with accepting Quote as being a robot.

if he is a robot, then where does the name Balrog come from?
(sounds like bullfrog) & its't it ironic that he turned into a frog?

IRONY DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!

Ahem... How does his name relate to him (not) being a robot?

Exactly! Even though he looks pretty square and metal but i really consider robots as boring and metal and emotionless. Even though all the robots in cave story have feelings and thoughts but balrog just seems to exciting to be the kind of robot i think of. Not that it's completely relavent but pooh black seems to be the same species if you like, but he's also a ghost and personally i find the thought of a ghost robot slightly wierd. If he really is a robot i might just have to accept it.

I'd like to believe that Balrog was just one of Misery's childhood playthings. That, either her or Jenka saw fit to bring to life as company. Obviously, there wouldn't be much company on the floating Island, so I always thought it would be natural for a little girl to want a companion to play with.

Then, being tied to Misery (probably due to the spell used to create him as a friend to her) I figured he was effected by the crowns curse.
