Ah, I never saw the animated version at all, just the ... dunno, late-40s or fifties (colourized later I'm pretty sure) live action. I don't really remember Frollo's exact position there either, just that I'm pretty sure he wore red and so figured Cardinal. The "what now?" question is the more important part anyway, so as long as you have some plans to address that it's what I was getting at.
As for looking inhuman, is MC's robot form based on the VF-1J (and if that, is it the turrethead toy form or the more humanoid animated one) or Roy's custom -1S like your avatar image? Having added a few bits of contemporary armor (a breastplate and probably tassets/"armor skirt") or just a tabard over the torso section with some appropriately Good Guy heraldic insignia to hide the bits where a human obviously can't fit inside would actually be a good reason to be sticking to battroid here, so he just seems to be an armoured knight with some strange abilities. Hey, it worked for Max to pass as a Zentreadi officer!
