Torisae Sol'aria (鳥彩 ソウル’ 蒼空) is a female Chinese Malaysian independent VTuber who has been streaming since May 2021. As of January 2022 she became part of a community known as FGS, under the sub-unit known as LYVONX (pronounced Live-On-Ex; an allusion to being 'live on next') alongside members Zekoz and Fumiyo. She is currently an indie under the guild known as Team Comfy.
Profile[]
The pale phoenix who as once a star. Now a messenger who travels between worlds and dimensions with the purpose of spreading light, hope and love to every corner of the universes. Her current form (model 01) is said to be a manifestation of how she views herself. It is said that her clothes are stained pink from the blood of her enemies, and until the day she forgives herself for her past - they will remain so for the days to come. However - perhaps, the time for that is coming.
Personality[]
Sol'aria is a comfy gremlin who loves to create, and has a heart for the illustrative arts, designing, singing and playing games as well as spending time with her beloved friends. She used to be shyer and speak less when she first started streaming around May 2021, but since then has gotten much more assertive, comfortable and bubbly on stream.
She is often well known for her soft voice, exuding comfy vibes with every interaction, to the point of unintentionally putting many to sleep. However do not be fooled, for upon listening closely - it can be perceived below a chaotic being unlike any other.
In the past she was often put down for her erratic nature, but as she entered the virtual space and surrounded herself with people who understood her as well as a wonderful community - she learned to love herself more and embrace the randomness that she now utilizes to entertain her viewers. Whether on social media or on stream Sol'aria tends to be very transparent. Over time she has learnt to speak up and expand her confidence as a person - frequently leading to some humorous moments in which she spouts the most unexpected of things such as her recent famous catchphrase "I'm gonna doodoo on your doorstep". A delightful phrase founded and later coined by her whilst chatting to a friend during a stream on 7 September 2022.
Despite seeming like a soft-hearted bird, and being easily startled (sometimes due to her own alerts being too loud) Sol'aria is fairly resilient in games that require mental fortitude and would usually make one frustrated or scared, such as with horror games. She can always be heard chirpily laughing - making fun of her viewers, as they poke fun back at her - easily finding humor in most things, and sometimes teasing chat with her 'deeper voice'.
Due to her mental health, she can't push out as much content as she wishes to - but she always does her best, constantly thinking about and making sure to appreciate the people around her whenever she can. The phoenix tries her best not to focus on the pressures of growing as a streamer and content creator, concentrating more on what makes her happy, as for now she just wants her precious Torisuki to smile alongside her.
History[]
Background[]
Sol'aria (then Sol Nayeli) initially debuted on a shared channel called CorCordium with duo and childhood friend Lucienne Nayeli on 13 May 2021. Prior to their semester break - in April 2021, the two friends discovered 'vtubing' and had decided that they would try streaming with avatars for fun. Shortly after, much planning and preparation had to be done - aiming for a quick debut before the end of their holidays.
Debut[]
Torisae Sol'aria debuted on 22 May 2022[1]. It was a large event that lasted 3 days - her first subathon in celebration of the bird's first annual anniversary as a streamer, her birthday (both of which coincided in May) as well as the long awaited full model debut. She reached an impressive 150 subscriptions, and performed a number of her subathon goals including giving viewers a kiss as well as saying 'ara ara' 100 times. Most of her other incentives however were seemingly forgotten, as Torisuki seemed more invested in simply spending time with Sol'aria throughout the exciting occasion.

Previously only referred to as a 'smol birb (small bird)', and only revealing to Ko-Fi subscribers a poem that alluded to what she truly was :
" A rising sun, the setting stars; As the time has come, and the hour runs, Far be it from me to reminisce of the past; A new dawn arises, and in it we walk and trust, On the wings of return, Something soars, as the light burns My heart skips a beat, I can't see a thing, As the lights started to dim, I thought I'd never again feel the breeze of spring, But small and true, here a life blooms, Arising and rejecting death as it looms, I can only assume, as it seems- that I am anew. "
