Profile

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 approximately two pens tall.

Personality

Filian is a very energetic streamer with a cheerful and confident personality. While a fully functioning adult, she is not 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.

Filian tries to maintain a "family-friendly" image, and rarely swears and tries not to engage in lewd behavior. She is very daring, going through with ridiculous "punishments" which often involve embarrassing herself in public worlds in VRChat, ingesting undesirable combinations of food items, tweeting out self-damaging statements, and more.

Appearance

Being a VRChat 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 cat girl with white hair of varying length depending on the 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
• Winter school uniform with a coat, scarf, and earmuffs
• 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)
• Beach attire (seen very rarely)
• Wedding dress
• Maid costume
• Bunny girl outfit (allegedly retired)
• Idol outfit (VTuber Awards 2023)
• Casual outfit
• Goth outfit with headphones
• All black outfit with leg warmers and oversized sleeves
• VTuber Awards 2024 outfit
• Christmas outfit
• Pastel sailor uniform

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

Content

Unlike the majority of VTubers, Filian almost always streams with full body tracking, and rather than having her model mostly in one place (simulating a webcam, customary for a VTuber), she actively moves around the screen, uses interactive elements (such as VRChat games), and performs gymnastic moves. She streams from VRChat the 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", with some of the punishments being labeled as "jackpots", while most others are ideas from her community on Discord. You Laugh, You Lose is what she usually streams the most. Unlike with the rest of her content, it is guaranteed on almost every Saturday.

Before Filian gets to the main content, she likes to stall for an hour or longer, which could sometimes end up being longer than the actual main content itself. Such activities while stalling include unban requests, looking at the Discord, fooling around in a VRChat world, playing a browser-based game, and viewing videos either by her own accord or through chat. And even after she's done with the main content, instead of ending it there, she will sometimes switch categories and play some kind of game, whether it be Minecraft, a gacha game, or some other game, with some of them being sponsors.

Mascot and Fans

• Filian's fanbase is called The Snackers, referencing her love for Welch's® Original Fruit Snacks®.
  • 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.
• 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.

Relationships

• She claims fallenshadow is her sister, even though it was most likely a joke since they are both cat anime girls. She first collabed with fallenshadow in November 2023, and did so again in 2024.
• During a collab with Lucy Pyre, a guest VTuber that goes by Cha Cha, Your Vmom has ended up becoming Filian's VTuber mom.

• "TJAAAAAY!!!" (She shouted that name when said person's marble on Marbles on Stream fell and it has become a sound alert that annoys her)

Trivia

Likes and dislikes

• 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 has made no attempt at having a partnership or sponsorship deal with Filian.

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 also a recording of her voice. Because of this, Filian's voice is sometimes likened to that of Toad from the Super Mario franchise.
• She claims to have ADHD (self-styled as "HDMI"), which makes it 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 does, however, drink GamerSupps and Red Bull.
• She often mentions that she hasn't ever been in a serious relationship and is still a "Kissless virgin".
• Filian has allergies 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, and various props. She has even made some holes in her walls. The most famous one was named "Butt Wall" due to it being made from one of Filian’s butt cheeks. However, they all had to be repaired before she moved.
• 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.
• 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 by accidentally stalemating her opponent.
• The Charlie Jumpscare always gets a reaction out of her.
• She claims to have a condition that makes cilantro taste like soap to her. This is a real-life genetic trait which causes people to strongly perceive the aldehydes (a chemical that is said to taste "soapy") in cilantro leaves.
• Despite claiming to be a cat girl, her two most used models are actually fox girls.
• She never revealed her birthday because she doesn't like celebrating it. It is because during one of her birthdays as a child, when her parents asked her what kind of cake she wanted, she said that she didn't care what kind it was, which resulted in her getting a cake that she didn't want to eat.
  • On 7 December, she was playing the game Strinova and was forced by the game to enter her day of birth. She ended up telling the game it was 9 June, which is more likely a nod to the number 69 than her actual day of birth.
• Her starting screen background music is "Bubble Tea" by dark cat. The only difference from the original is that half of the vocals are replaced by an AI voice of Filian signing the lyrics.
• She once set fire to her kitchen on stream by accidentally turning on her stove and burning mail that was placed on it. She used a hoodie to put it out. Days later, she ended up exploding a tire.
• She failed her diving test a few times. The first time, she got nervous at the last second and hit the accelerator instead of the break and almost destroyed the car. The second time, she missed a turn due to trying to avoid traffic.
• She plays "Mi Mi Mi" by Serebro whenever she gifts subs to her own chat.
• She gets riled up whenever she sees someone spell her name with two Ls.
• Whenever "Tokyo" by Leat'eq plays, she is forced to do a specific dance.
• Her alert sounds for 50 gifted subs and 100 gifted subs are recordings of her reactions to the respective gifted sub numbers.

Feats and Achievements

• Her current record for the duration of a handstand is 31 seconds.
