Appearance

She has long black hair with her iconic red-eyed hairpin. Her eyes are a deep red, which according to her lore, changed from her natural brown when she read the grimoire and merged with the tentacle monster, Morrow. She has several outfits but usually sports a modified black Japanese school uniform. Her hair usually frames her face and has bangs, though she has several hairstyles to choose from, such as ponytails and shoulder length hair. She sometimes adds black cat ears to her model, depending on her mood. She always has on a plain black choker and has an array of earrings and hair clips. Her thighs have self-harm scars on them and her chest features a large surgery scar in the middle.

She claims her canon breast size is D Cup but her models feature a range of sizes. Rarely she wears an open-chest black dress which displays her cleavage.

Her model features a gothic, all-black aesthetic with red accents, charms, and expressive eyes. She's the darker half of the Haiiro Girls ("Haiiro" meaning "gray" or "misty" in Japanese), with her sister Varie dressed in all white.

Alessia went through several iterations of her model and theme before she settled on her current. The first was a pink strawberry nekomimi, then a deer-girl, then a blue water themed tentacle monster girl. She states that she changed her model as she matured and due to the pressure of trying to please others in the community. She teased her latest model throughout 2024 and released it in 2025. She has one primary model and five alternative models all in the same style, with one being the "manga" version.

Personality

Alessia is soft-spoken, kind, and ditsy, often flipping between sweet affection and deadpan teasing. She enjoys building a comfy, welcoming space for her community, which she lovingly calls her stinkies and whom she jokes resides in her basement. She spends much of her time doing art and is happy to show others how to grow in both art and the VTubing community. She's a staunch critic of gatekeeping and very open about the toxicity in the VTubing, art, and broader streaming community, of which she has personally been a victim. She's been outspoken about "mean girl behavior" and body-shaming.

She likes to talk about NSFW topics and is open about her sexuality and relationship, but does not consider herself a lewdtuber. She’s also open about her personal journey with a congenital heart defect and uses streaming as a creative and social outlet.

Background

Alessia began streaming in April 2020, before officially stepping into the VTuber scene by May of that year. Though she never had a formal debut, she quickly gained attention during one of the early 2020 VTuber booms. She initially struggled to find her place in the community but eventually connected with a small group of rising creators who became close friends and collaborators, sharing resources and moderators.

By 2021, Alessia was growing quickly. However, juggling a five-day streaming schedule, designing her own 3D model, and managing social pressure behind the scenes began to take a toll. She admitted feeling uncomfortable with the persona she had adopted and was increasingly dissatisfied with her model and aesthetic. That same year, she rebranded from a soft, pink strawberry-themed girl to a spring-styled deer girl.

Toward the end of 2021, Alessia began experiencing severe symptoms due to a flare-up of her chronic heart condition, leading to less frequent streams. She underwent minor surgery and got married that winter. Simultaneously, she watched several friends fall victim to what she described as "toxic and overblown" drama within the VTuber space, leading to her circle fracturing. Several long-time moderators also left her community to work with larger streamers. The combined strain of health issues, burnout, and personal loss led her to announce a hiatus in early 2022.

During her break, Alessia remained active on Twitter and Discord and occasionally streamed. In early 2023, she began publicly testing the waters for a full-time return. She rebranded again—this time to a blue-themed tentacle/slime girl—and dropped the soft, overly-cute vibe in favor of a more casual, playful persona that she felt more authentically represented her. She began designing and rigging a new 2D model from scratch, but it was never revealed. Just as she was preparing for her comeback, she was informed she needed emergency open-heart surgery. She spent the rest of 2023 recovering, streaming only a handful of times.

Lore

Alessia is a wannabe yandere. She's obsessed with dark and edgy content but far too awkward and gentle to actually act like a proper yandere. She comes across more as cute and psycho than

Alessia was once a bright, lively child, always in motion and always surrounded by laughter. Her days were filled with soccer practices, music club rehearsals, slumber parties, and all manner activities one might expect from a young girl. She thrived in the warmth of connection with friends and adventure in life. But as her congenital heart condition worsened, her vibrant world slowly dimmed. First went the sports. Then the clubs. Then the casual hangouts. Eventually, even school became too much. Her social universe simply withered away in quiet, painful fragments. She was homeschooled, kept indoors, and gradually became a ghost in the lives of people she once called friends. Isolated and introspective, Alessia turned inward. She buried herself in manga and novels, especially gothic horror, morally gray romances, and yandere characters. The darker and weirder, the better. These stories became a world where she could be someone else: alluring, terrifying, complex, everything she didn’t feel brave enough to be in real life.

In reality, she’s still a sweet, awkward, kind-hearted girl with a soft voice and a shy smile. She dreams of the dangerous love of her favorite stories but she’s far too gentle to play the villain. Somewhere between a failed tsundere and a wannabe yandere, Alessia owns her contradictions.

Then one night, during one of her secret hobbies, sneaking out to explore haunted places, everything changed. Inside a crumbling, long-forgotten archive, she discovered a strange, ancient grimoire. The moment she read from it, a powerful primordial being attached itself to her psyche. It manifests as a shadowy, tentacled creature that clings to her like a mischievous pet, which she named Morrow.

Though it's supposed to be a terrifying ancient evil, it has a special relationship with her. She claims it speaks to her, reads her thoughts, sometimes helps her, and occasionally wreaks chaos in her life.

With her new otherworldly companion, Alessia began streaming to rebuild the sense of community she’d lost. On stream, she’s awkward but endearing, silly but soft, a gremlin but wholesome. Together with her chat and her newfound sense of self, she’s slowly building a world where she can finally belong.

Alessia's lore is based largely on experiences from her real life. This lore is also the basis of her upcoming video game Morrowbound.

2024

In early 2024, Alessia returned to sporadic streaming, no longer fixated on growth or maintaining a persona, but just to maintain a community of friends. That same year, she announced her pregnancy and confirmed plans to eventually return to full-time content creation. Her community remained supportive, though she admitted the VTubing scene no longer felt the same, calling it "empty" compared to the spark it once had.

In October, on Twitter she teased a full comeback soon, hinting at a darker, more mature design she had been developing for months in secret. She promised to stream not as a character, but as herself.

2025

Alessia officially returned in January 2025, showcasing a new aesthetic: a cute-but-dark, wannabe yandere persona alongside her primordial tentacle companion. She expanded her presence on TikTok and YouTube while streaming 3–4 days per week. With renewed confidence and a clear sense of who she wanted to be, she reconnected with her audience — with many noting her new confidence and how much she had "grown into herself."

She frequently teased a “big project,” which was later revealed to be Haiiro Girls and the pre-debut of her twin sister, Varie. By April, she also began showcasing a video game she was making that was currently in development. She launched a VGen for her art commissions that same month.

Relationship with Varie

Alessia is one half of the streaming duo known as the Haiiro Girls, alongside her twin sister, Varie. The two are visual opposites: Alessia often dresses in black and embraces a darker, more gothic aesthetic despite her soft behavior, while Varie is brightly themed and dressed in light colors despite her sleepy demeanor. Together, they represent the balance of opposites: shadow and light, moon and sun, soft and sharp, chaos and peace, yin and yang.

The name “Haiiro” (灰色), meaning gray in Japanese, was chosen to represent that duality, as well as their deep ties to anime and East Asian pop culture. Both sisters are part-Asian, and their brand is heavily inspired by the anime worlds they grew up loving, as well as their personal experiences. They both claim to have liked anime "back when you'd get bullied for it."

Though their personalities differ—Alessia being the shy gremlin who's liable to make lewd comments as much as she is to be wholesome and Varie being the sleepy and outgoing one who swears like a sailor—their bond is palpable. On stream, they play off each other, teasing each other playfully and leaning into their natural chemistry. They often finish each other's thoughts or will do the same things as each other accidentally, even showing up to events in similar outfits without planning it.

According to their Discord, together, they "aim to create a warm, chaotic, and welcoming space" especially for those who have ever felt "a little awkward or out of place".

Personal life
  • Alessia is typically a private person but is not afraid to discuss personal details or life events. She had a baby in December 2024 and has a congenital heart defect that has required 4 surgeries throughout her life. She is a self professed Catholic. She has been very open about being the victim of bullying.
  • The twins make frequent incest jokes at the expense of their older brother, who is apart of their management team. Their community Discord tag is NCST.
  • She has over 40 stuffed animals.VTuber profile card.png
