Nox

Nox (诺莺 Nuòyīng) is a female Chinese VTuber affiliated with VirtuaReal's independent VTuber partnership program, VirtuaReal Link.

Introduction
"The little night goddess whose singing is as strong as her comedic power is here to bestow a spell on you!"

- Nox

There are those who say this young lady who lives in the city centre's castle is a sorceress proficient in divination, and there are also those who say she secretly runs a black market enterprise of formidable power. Nobody knows when she came to this city; some people even say that they have seen her silhouette in their ancestors' old photographs in their own homes, but nevertheless that kind of statement cannot be confirmed so far; more and more rumours revolve around her, practically on the verge of her becoming a living urban legend. But even the lucky ones who have met Nox face to face will only think that she is impossible to grasp. She who at first sight is quiet and graceful will at the next moment suddenly say the most evil things, then turn around and talk to you ceaselessly in a normal way like nothing happened. All kinds and sorts of rumours cause all people in the vicinity to keep their distance. And so the current Nox who felt bewildered by the rumours springing up from everywhere, will via livestreaming personally disclose her "little secrets" at hand one by one for us. As for what kind of person she is, that’s for each of the dear listeners to personally decide.

Personality
"Remember, you can't make everyone happy, but you can always piss everyone off."
