Jean Faymas

Jean Faymas, commonly known as Jets, is an Australian female VTuber and artist. She is a plamo and mecha enthusiast, and is most well-known for her relentlessly upbeat personality, love of all things retro, and self-proclaimed "dingus brain". She is associated most closely with her fellow Australian VTubers Mako Fukasame, Clio Aite, and NegNasu.

Personality
Jets is an excitable and energetic tomboy with a positive and welcoming attitude toward everyone. As a professional mecha pilot working for Cynapse Inc., when not streaming she is busy fighting kaiju with her mech M-11-A as a domestic protection operative of the Australian defense division of Cynapse.

She is a quintessential "boomer zoomer" - despite having only just graduated from "mech academy" (university) her taste in media very strongly leans towards archetypical 80's and 90's shows and music. She is a huge fan of David Bowie, The Smiths, Twin Peaks, Serial Experiments Lain, CRT monitors, and IBM keyboards. Her youth and relative life inexperience often render her unintentionally "seiso" when lewd topics arise, although she does have a hidden darker side evident through her Twitter likes and occasional spicy drawings.

While not the most naturally talented gamer in the world, becoming flustered and panicky under stressful situations, she is stubbornly determined and refuses to be defeated by a challenge. She is rarely interested in triple AAA titles of the moment and is usually to be found playing a retro or indie game, drawing, or just chatting.

She also makes creative use of the streaming and VTubing medium, often creating elaborate stream overlays such as a Metal Gear codec screen, Windows XP desktop with vintage Wordart, and CRT screen savers.

Appearance
Jets has ash purple hair, dull green eyes, and is usually seen wearing a white undershirt with a black sweater vest, purple skirt, leggings, and black platform shoes. She has metallic "cat ears" attached to either side of the top of her head which are in fact neural interfaces implanted directly into her brain to help her link more effectively with her mech. When activated they glow orange, an effect which also spills over to her eyes. She is also sometimes seen wearing a metal headset that sits just behind these implants, and occasionally a black Cynapse-branded jacket with her pilot registration number "237" above the left breast. A red safety-pinned armband on her right arm also displays this number, and she carries her mech key on a red tag on her waist.

Her hands and wrists are bandaged, and her knees covered in plasters, as she extremely clumsy and often injures herself during routine daily activities such as cooking, as well as her regular kaiju fighting job. Badges on her handbag are representative of her love of Star Trek, Blade Runner, Gurren Lagann, and sci-fi in general.

Background
Jets selected her full name "Jean Faymas" after googling French guns and deciding she liked the sound of the FAMAS.

2022
Jets debuted her current Live2D model in February.

2023
A "season 2" Jets model was due to debut on 6 February but due to delays with artwork and rigging this was postponed.

On 8 February, she reached four thousand Twitch followers.

On 18 February Jets debuted "Season 2", featuring greatly enhanced rigging and expressions, a wide range of new outfits, and new stream overlays, backgrounds, and introduction/break music.

On 28 February Jets became a Twitch partner.

On 15 March the formation of the Twitch team "Vershion" (a play on the words "version" and "shion", the Japanese word for "beautiful woman") was announced by Jets on stream. This team consists of herself and her fellow Australian VTubers Clio Aite, Mako Fukasame, and PeachHana.

Trivia

 * This once led her to spend almost an entire offcollab staring at Mako Fukasame's breasts, for which she was humorously called out.
