Leaflit

Leaflit is a female slimegirl virtual YouTuber.

Personality
Leaflit is highly competitive at video games. She is easily scared, and doesn't like horror games or scary movies. She can be clueless and inattentive at times, and often makes mistakes. She is strongly supportive of her friends and works hard to support her stream and other streamers. She is open with her feelings.

Her dreams are to make friends and to reach for the stars. Her hobbies are cooking, tabletop RPGs, and eating other VTubers.

Appearance
Leaflit is a blue slimegirl, with red eyes and a red antenna which resembles an ahoge. She has a red slime core. Her lower body is rarely seen, but includes a pair of legs. As a slime, she is capable of manipulating her form in various ways, although she usually assumes a humanoid form. Examples include manifesting more than two arms at once, or creating a question mark from her head.

Leaflit has an alternate faerie form, in which she is a blue-haired humanoid with pointed ears, wearing clothing including a red hat and cape. However, this form is mostly illusory.

Waifu Wars Wednesday
Waifu Wars began when Leaflit ran a D&D-style event where chat controlled a character venturing into an ancient temple to find a scroll to heal their imouto (younger sister). Chat demanded to know more about the sister character, and the game devolved into a sixteen-way voting tournament of viewer-submitted Waifu Labs AI-generated characters.

Waifu Wars tournaments now take place on a regular basis, usually on the first Wednesday of every month, with the winners becoming official characters who receive 3D VRChat models, a voiced trailer, and their own theme song.

Co-hosts
Leaflit's mother, the faerie VTuber Asari Mitsuha, has made appearances on the channel. In one instance, Leaf was raided by Nyatasha Nyanners, a streamer with ten times as many viewers at the time, only for raiders to discover that Asari to be broadcasting at the time.

Leaflit frequently interviews other VTubers via a communication portal in the adventurer's guild library during a segment called The Leaflit Show. In one instance, Leaf actually traveled through the portal to Haruka Karibu's homeland of Canada, but discovered she was unable to return home the same way. How she got home is a mystery.

Bird VTuber Cor Vous occasionally makes cameos on Leaflit's channel, and co-hosted Waifu Wars #2.

Background
Leaflit's YouTube and Twitch channels were created on 26 Sep 2011 and 7 Dec 2011 respectively. The channels were originally created for use in a collaboration between League of Legends YouTubers Shurelia and LilyPichu, known as Shurelily. Both streamers used commissioned artwork as avatars to represent their characters in livestreams, with hotkeys to manually switch between facial expressions. However, technology such as FaceRig did not yet exist to display real-time physical movement.

2020
A slime girl character first appeared on the former Shurelily Twitch channel on Twitch on 13 March. On 11 June she revealed the current avatar with red eyes, as well as the new name, Leaflit. The name Leaflit was previously used as one of Shurelia's D&D characters.

In stream on 25 August, she revealed her alternate faerie form. This is a 3D avatar which Leaf also uses in VRChat.

Leaflit became a Twitch partner on 30 September, as revealed by fellow VTuber Cece the Dragon during an interview on The Leaflit Show. Leaflit had known this prior to the stream, but had chosen not to reveal it herself because "cool guys don't look at explosions".

On 9 November, she revealed a new 2D avatar of her alternate faerie form, including a red guild uniform hat and cloak.

Fans

 * Leaflit's fans are known as Adventurers.
 * They were previously known as Reviewers.
 * Fanart of Leaflit can be posted to the hashtag #LeaflitArt.

Homeland

 * Leaflit lives in an isekai fantasy world. She connects to our world's internet by an isekai internet system, and has visited our world in the past.
 * Leaflit was born in Houkaina, in the kingdom of Northi.
 * Leaflit lives in the city-state of Mothergreen in the nation of Axis, following its annexation by Westria in a recent war. It is located on the Lyrian Peninsula. Mothergreen is a free trade city, although she spent several years growing up on Earth during the war.
 * Travel between Leaflit's world and ours is controlled by the Isekai Management Bureau. Leaflit's mother is an Earth technology specialist working for this agency, which is why her family are able to visit Earth in human guise. While the existence of isekai travel is classified, Leaflit is free to discuss it because the Bureau assumes nobody will actually believe her.
 * Leaflit claims that several notable Twitch streamers are actually from other worlds.

Species and family

 * Leaflit is a slimegirl; more specifically a chimera slime half-faerie (selkie). Her father is a slime, descended from a slime transformed into a sentient humanoid by powerful ambient magic long ago. Her mother is a faerie VTuber named Asari Mitsuha; a selkie, a water-type faerie. Half-faerie slimes are uncommon; 99% of slime/faerie pairings produce a faerie.
 * Slimes possess poor eyesight, and have difficulty tracking moving objects. Leaflit's red antenna serves as a visual organ to help compensate. Leaflit sometimes activates an enhanced tracking mode while playing games, during which yellow stars are visible in her eyes.
 * Slimes are also resistant to slashing and piercing damage, but their core is vulnerable to damage. Slimes often learn to disguise the presence or location of their core by refracting light through their bodies.
 * As a result of being half-faerie, Leaflit has low constitution (for a slime), limited poison resistance, and is less resilient against weapons made of iron. However, she is resilient against illusion, and more skilled with illusion magic.
 * As a part selkie, Leaflit possesses a seal coat. According to selkie tradition, if anyone steals this coat, she must marry them. Its location is a carefully guarded secret.
 * Slimes are made of a non-Newtonian fluid, which allows them to retain their semi-solid form.
 * As a slime, Leaflit is capable of manifesting more than two arms at a time, which she uses to improve her typing speed. She can type at around 120 WPM.
 * Leaflit's blue color is believed to be caused by Raleigh scattering, the same photoelectric effect which causes the sky to appear blue.
 * After an intensive training session with an uncle on an unnamed mountain range, Leaflit has gained the ability to transform her appearance to more resemble a faerie. However, this change is largely illusory, and does not affect her abilities. Part of her motivation was that slimes are rare in Mothergreen, and she wanted to receive fewer odd looks from visitors to the guild.
 * Leaflit knows a limited amount of magic, and can only produce weak ice cantrips. She can also teleport between her home and the guild where she works, but this is the result of a magical artifice rather than her own power.
 * Slimes are omnivorous, but Leaflit prefers to eat meat, ideally as raw as possible.
 * Leaflit has family relatives among the yokai of Japan on Earth.

Other facts

 * Leaflit works part-time as a desk clerk at an adventurer's guild known as Angel's Sword. This is referenced in her stream intermission, scene transitions and end scene, where she can be seen doing paperwork at the guild, tripping and dropping all the paperwork, stamping paperwork, and falling asleep at her desk.
 * Leaflit is not an adventurer herself, and describes herself as only a "level 1 slime" or "level 1 gulid receptionist".
 * Leaflit's rarely-used full name is Leaflit S. Mitsuha.
 * Leaflit is a faerie name, reflecting her fey heritage.
 * Her middle name is unknown, and may be a slime name. She does not commonly use this name. She does not reveal it, because knowing a faerie's true name gives you power over them.
 * Mitsuha is her mother's last name. She writes it with the kanji 「三葉」, with the literal meaning of "three leaves". The character Miyamizu Mitsuha from animated movie Your Name uses the same kanji in her name. The kanji are also used to refer to the plant mitsuba, also called Cryptotaenia japonica, a flowering plant used as a seasoning.
 * Leaflit always writes her name in English name order.
 * Leaflit is good friends with game designer Shurelia, who previously collaborated with LilyPichu on the 2011 animated web series Shurelily Adventures.
 * Leaflit is a fan of the animated series Pretty Cure. Her favourite character is Cure Honey. She has visited Earth in the past via a portal, primarily to purchase copious amounts of Pretty Cure merchandise. Her streams sometimes devolve into lengthy "Precure simping" sessions in which she subjects her viewers to clips from the series and shows off her collection of merchandise.
 * Leaf speaks both English and Japanese. Her vocal pitch range is exceptional, capable of singing from at least A2 to D4. She previously trained as a voice actress, but never pursued a career in voice acting due to a lack of acting skill. She also briefly trained in swordfighting before taking up a desk job in the adventurer's guild.
 * After being falsely accused of eating former League of Legends streamer Shurelia, Leaflit announced her intent to eat rival VTubers. She subsequently actually cooked and ate reindeer meat representing Haruka Karibu; and shark jerky representing Artemis of the Blue.
 * Leaflit offers a points review to rate viewers' waifus a score out of ten. She rated herself 0/10.

What would X shonen protagonist do in this situation? They would get up again, no matter how hard it is. That's what drives me." - Leaflit, 14 Dec 2020
