Rin Penrose

Rin Penrose is a female English VTuber affiliated with idol Corp's first English wave "E-Sekai," alongside Yuko Yurei, Juna Unagi, Pochi Wanmaru, and Fuyo Cloverfield.

Profile
Rin is the self-proclaimed prince ("Not princess!") of a kingdom in another world. Though she tries to maintain a "proper" demeanour befitting her royal heritage, her true, unfathomable personality always shines through.

Personality
Rin is a mature person for who elegance (but also money) matter a lot. Thus, she often puts in relief that her viewers must behave making honor to her by various fancy requests. Her genmate Fuyo Cloverfield talks about her as a tsundere. She is regularly taken as a clown by everyone else, even her genmates, due to both her behavior and her strong British accent.

Due to her reputation, she lacks authority over her chat. It led once to one of her streams, initially planned as an announcement stream, being interrupted continuously by the donation notification sound for 45 minutes. Then this stream turned, with the approbation of her manager, into one where she had to discuss with her mother.

She is used to expose her extravagant hobbies and opinions. For example, Rin likes talking a lot about her shark plushies she buys at Ikea. Rin also proudly extolls she bases her streaming strategy not on doing her best, but making things as worst as possible, so she can distinguish herself from other streamers.
