I'm not using Nightbots or other chatbots but I'm making my own scripts to have the chat interracting with the stream ^^
Some are specific to some games (like Twitch Raiders spawning in Stalker and stuff like this) but you can use the following at all time (and for free !) :

> !color {color}

will change the color of my avatar, you can type a color name, "random" or "rainbow" !

> !emo {text}
> !emov {text}

will change the face on my mascot to the text you input ! (emov is for vertical)

> !pat

to be sweet ^3^

I'm a half-human / half-oni paying a visit to this world :D

I was smiling a lot back in my past, not as much today, and I want to find a trick do it again !
And wish that you will do too :D

For now I'll just try to play soothing/comforting/humorous things but also spooky/dark/fast-action stuff ;D
Mainly from my childhood :

Fighting Monolithians in "Shadow of Chornobyl"
Casting Random Magic in "A Magical Highschool Girl"
Scoring Yakumans in "Mahjong Soul"
...
This list only grows as I dig up good quality gaming works of art !

I also draw (nothing crazy) and may do animations and outfits for my Vtubing avatar x3

It's only a start and it won't stop until I'm maximum happy ^u^

So grab a pizza, sit down and chill with us to put a bit of joy in your days ;D

(Oh ! That's a Pangram Lipogram hahaha)

Just so you know : I'm a guy.

I'm using a pitch-shifter (the VST3.0 "Pitchmunk" from Vox Samples) because I want to be in-character during my stream AND ... I hate hearing my own voice xD

Also, yes, I partially used IA for my model.
While I can draw realistic stuff from observation and I love doing shading/lighting ; I'm super bad at drawing manga style.

So I used Stable Diffusion XL to create my base model, using ControlNet and other mods to generate based on my scribbles of my character.
It took a full week to get the exact result I wanted, exactly how I wanted it.

And another full week to rig and animate my model using InochiCreator and Puppetstring.
I'm proud of the result ! I can't say it's fully hand-made but it's certainly home-made x3

>> Remember that I'm just doing this for fun :D

I'm not on social medias. I don't plan to either x)

I just have a Youtube channel to post my VODs :

And a Discord to share ideas, artworks and challenges ^^ :

Also I place this here : I can speak French and English, feel free to use any language you want with me :D

MS Paint. I'm not joking xD

While I'm very short on money, I don't plan to get Affiliate ('cause ads) and I'd prefer if you kept your money to buy something sweet ^w^

So if you really want to give me something : A fanart would mean the world for me :3

I also do some drawing/rigging/animation streams and tutorials from time to time ^^
