Toba Fuyumi

Toba Fuyumi (鳥羽ふゆみ) is a German independent VTuber mainly streaming on Twitch and in English. She does collabs in English and German.

Profile
Originally, Fuyumi was a kingfisher bird who had taken great interest in the human world. After transforming into a human, she lost the majority of her feathers, rendering her unable to transform back and return home. Finding herself unable to travel the world in search of her feathers due to a certain virus, she eventually took up streaming to find kind humans who would support her in her endeavor.

Curious about a lot of human hobbies, she finds joy in a whole plethora of activities, including playing video games/board games, singing, drawing, cooking and even storytelling.

Personality
Generally, Fuyumi is of gentle and kind nature, though she sometimes enjoys trolling and teasing people with whom she gets along well. However, this kingfisher can also be quite impatient at times and is naturally easily scared. During encounters with any kind of horror, the likelihood of her resorting to swearing in a panic drastically increases.

History
Fuyumi debuted on March 20th 2021 on Youtube.

On May 21st 2020, she began to switch streaming plattforms by streaming on both Twitch and Youtube.

Ever since June 1st 2020, she has been primarily streaming on Twitch.

Mascots and Fans

 * She refers to her fans as "Feather Seekers", implying that each one supports her by searching for her feathers.
 * The kingfisher bird that appears in her streams is her brother Bau-kun, an abbreviation for the German cake called Baumkuchen.

Lore
Origin

Fuyumi belongs to a special group of kingfishers which consists of descendants of Alcyone and Ceyx from Greek mythology.

Having spent her whole life in paradise, she heard many stories about the human world and one day decided to sneak out.

Accompanied by her brother Bau-kun, she ventured into the human world and found a necklace which originally allowed Alcyone and Ceyx to switch between their human and kingfisher forms.

However, she messed up the transformation, causing her feathers to get scattered over the whole world - along with the magical energy of the necklace which was running through them.

In order to transform back into her kingfisher form and return home, she has to find all of her feathers to restore the power of the necklace.

Trivia
Likes and dislikes


 * Due to a traumatic experience with horror movies, she heavily dislikes horror as a genre. Yet, unbeknown to her, the first game she went on to stream was the horror visual novel Doki Doki Literature Club since her mama Satchel had been in charge of its artworks.
 * Other dislikes include spicy food, dolls, heels, insects, fizzy drinks, licorice, kebab and spoilers.
 * During horror games, the likelihood of swearing drastically goes up. At the same time, when she gets really scared, she usually forgoes observing her environment and instead either plays with closed eyes or only looks at the in-game floor.
 * Aside from video games, she enjoys board games and collectible/trading card games.
 * Her favourite food includes fish, cilantro, Baumkuchen, soy milk and popcorn.
 * She is obsessed with the Pokemon Rowlet and had over 30 plushies of it as of her debut stream.
 * Her favourite animes include Air, Aria, Clannad, Kanon, My Hero Academia, School Rumble and Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle.
 * Among her favourite video games are Final Fantasy VII, Kingdom Hearts 1 and Persona 5.
 * Some of her favourite board games are Chronicles of Crime, Drachensachen, Everdell, Sheriff of Nottingham, Throw Throw Burrito, Villainous and Wingspan.

Miscellaneous


 * She once got mad when chat repeatedly called the Baumkuchen she was cooking pancakes. In reaction, she refused to talk to chat for a minute each time someone wrote pancake, resulting in her staring at chat for over 21 minutes.
