Filian

Filian is a futa independent kemonomimi VTuber based in North America, with English being her main broadcasting language. Self-branded as "VTuber alpha" or "VTuber in training", Filian hasn't had an official debut yet, but she has been on Twitch since 18 April 2021.

Bio
Hiya!

So basically I do flips for fruit snacks, function as a top tier TTS bot, emit gremlin noises, and have heart attacks--then I call it a stream!

I stream VRChat, variety games, and my inevitable descent into insanity! Height is 3.8 ft tall

Personality
Filian is a very energetic streamer with a cheerful and confident personality. While a fully functioning adult, she isn't above immature humor, likes playing pranks and doesn't like taking things too seriously. She is also very clumsy, often running into walls/objects or falling over.

She maintains a "family-friendly" image, doesn't curse or engage in lewd behavior. Filian is very daring, going through with ridiculous "punishments", which often involve embarrassing herself in public worlds in VR Chat, ingesting undesirable combinations of food items, tweeting out self-damaging statements and more.

Appearance
Being a VR Chat streamer, Filian switches between different 3D models fairly often, but the two most used by her are Mint (also known as Lil' Fil) and Rindo (both customized to have a consistent color scheme). Filian is a catgirl with white hair (length depends on model) and violet eyes. She is small in stature and has a slim body build, evident by the fact that during her first PO Box stream she was able to put on kids' size clothes.

Her current main model, Rindo, has quite a few outfits. She switches between these outfits often, sometimes going through multiple costumes in one stream. These include:


 * Japanese-style clothes with detached sleeves
 * Sailor/seifuku school uniform
 * Long-sleeve black sportswear
 * Tennis costume
 * Japanese girls' gym uniform
 * Hip-hop costume
 * Cat onesie
 * Winter hood with shoulder covering
 * Race Queen outfit
 * V-neck sweater outfit with a hat
 * Business suit
 * One-piece dress
 * Elbow sleeve shirt with plaid skirt
 * Police officer outfit
 * Autumn outfit
 * Bikini (seen very rarely)
 * Maid costume
 * Bunny girl outfit

After her eventual official debut, Filian is going to have a fully custom model, made specifically for her.

Content
Unlike majority of VTubers, Filian almost always streams with full body tracking, and rather than have her model mostly in one place (simulating a webcam, customary for a VTuber), she actively moves about the screen, uses interactive elements (such as VR Chat games) and performs gymnastic moves. She streams from VR Chat majority of the time. Her preferred categories of content are video games and streamer challenges (such as You Laugh - You Lose, You Scream - You Lose, etc). These streamer challenges usually entail performing a randomly selected "punishment".

Prior to becoming a streamer, Filian simply hung out in VR Chat with her friends, who eventually convinced her to start streaming.

Fanbase
Filian's fanbase is called The Snackers, referencing her love for Welch's® Original Fruit Snacks®. There are also The Smackers, defined by Filian as "weirdos in chat", people engaging in suspicious behavior. Both terms are sometimes used interchangeably to refer to Filian's fans.

Snackers have participated in many creative endeavors, including painting and protecting several pictures of Filian on OTK Network's online pixel canvas long enough for those to remain until the event's conclusion. These images, along with pictures of many other VTubers, are to be featured on Times Square in New York City.

General

 * Filian's default alert sound is a recording of her saying "Whenever, whenever, whenever, poggy woggy". This unusual quote was a result of Filian getting distracted by a chat message while trying to speak. The full quote is "Whenever, whenever, whenever, poggy woggy, whenever I drop them through the bottom of the world, they kill me half the time on their way down".
 * One of her popular sound alerts, "TJAAAY" is actually her voice too. Because of this, Filian's voice is sometimes likened to that of Toad from Super Mario universe.
 * Her favorite food is Welch's® Original Fruit Snacks®. Despite the fact that Fruit Snacks are prominently featured as emotes, sub badges and even fan-base name on Filian's channel, the company made no attempt at having a partnership or sponsorship deal with Filian.
 * She claims to have ADHD (self-styled as "HDMI"), due to which it's hard for her to keep focus on one activity or thing at a time.
 * Filian leads a very healthy lifestyle: she loves dancing and exercise, doesn't overeat and has only tasted alcohol once in her entire life.
 * She often mentions that she hasn't ever been in a serious relationship and is still a "kissless virgin".
 * Filian is suffering from allergy to furry animals, such as cats, dogs, rabbits, etc. Due to this, she doesn't keep any pets, but she has expressed interest in keeping a pet snake.
 * Because of her physical activity during streams, she often breaks or disconnects streaming equipment, including VR trackers, chairs, various props, etc.
 * She went to college and had one job prior to becoming a full-time VTuber.
 * She has a surprisingly deep knowledge of the human body, health and biology, being able to accurately explain a video report on health effects on a person who had unknowingly ingested caffeine several times over daily limit for an adult.
 * Filian is very bad at cooking, which led her fans to send her multiple cookbooks for her first PO Box stream.


 * Similarly, she is easily amused, laughing at even slightly silly or humorous content.


 * She's afraid of walking in Montgomery Port because she knows she would be beaten with a folding chair.


 * She can play chess at a basic level. During a bullet chess game with a random Snacker she managed to gain the upper hand easily, but after promoting a queen ended the game in a draw, accidentally stalemating the opponent.

Feats and Achievements

 * Filian can speak two languages, English as her first and Spanish with some difficulties. She has also expressed interest in learning Japanese because Japan is a major center of Vtubing.
 * Her current record for performing handstand is 31 seconds.
 * Filian's personal best at Suika Game is 2808 points, just 16 points short of Zentreya's PB at the time (2824). She hasn't yet achieved her goal of getting 3000 points in this game.
