Overview

Vreeza is an alien who came to Earth for a school project when they were 13 years old, and then proceeded to almost immediately get stranded by crashing their spaceship in the Everglades while trying to parallel park it in between their house and their ATV. They've been living in the Everglades for around 7 years now in a small two-room house and lab that was only intended to be inhabited on a temporary basis, several hours' drive away from the nearest town in their ATV. They're okay with this, because it's a big improvement from living at school. Luckily, they were majoring in horticulture, and were therefore able to survive by growing their own food when their school-issued rations ran out.

Vreeza is most often used as a chatroom RP character, as they live alone in the middle of nowhere most of the time. Although they are very social, they struggle to make friends in real life - this is largely because they are extremely loud and their main strategy for trying to make friends in real life is to just approach somebody and start talking like they already know each other, frequently about off the wall topics that tend to frighten and confuse most strangers, such as their horticulture research, their weird online friends, or the time they got in a shootout with the FBI.

Personality

Vreeza is high-energy to a fault, and if they aren't feeling genuinely upbeat, they'll usually just fake it. This is a coping mechanism, and it takes a pretty extreme bad situation to get them to stop doing it. Outside of unusual circumstances, they'll be cheerful and energetic unless provoked, and jump straight to equally energetic anger or panic if sufficiently upset. They'll only allow themselves to be visibly sad if they're completely out of spoons and can't keep up the usual energy level, and it's even rarer to see them calm and happy- they do not like to calm down and refuse to do it if it can be avoided.

They're reckless, but their recklessness comes from overconfidence rather than a true disregard for their own safety. They actually care about their own safety a lot, they're just abysmally bad at judging when something might actually be unsafe and thus rush into dangerous situations because they think they can handle it just fine and definitely won't get hurt too bad. Although this doesn't always turn out well for them, it hasn't thus far resulted in any injury they couldn't recover from, so they aren't too worried about it.

Even though their friends live far away, friendship is very important to Vreeza- they never got to have friends at school, and being able to have friends is probably their favorite thing about Earth. They'll do just about anything to help a friend provided that they don't think it would endanger their own life- and the bar for Vreeza believing something to be a potential threat to their life is much higher than the bar for something actually being a threat to their life is. An alligator once bit their arm off and they still only consider alligators to be a minor, non-life-threatening hazard and potential cause of moderate inconvenience.

Story

As an RP character in active use, there are far too many events that have happened in Vreeza's life to put them all here, even if only looking at their main canon, so this will be a condensed summary of their life so far in their main canon, which is a multifandom + OCs chatroom RP. If you want to hear more about them, feel free to ask - there is a lot.

Early Life

Vreeza grew up on a government-run school space station orbiting their home planet, and did not have a great time with that. Their school was authoritarian and focused on efficiency to the point that the students’ (or, for that matter, the faculty’s) actual happiness was considered insignificant. It was a high pressure environment, with severe consequences for failure- messing up too badly was liable to get you killed. Vreeza spent their academic career getting as close to a fatal mistake as they could without actually making one, in part because of their difficulty focusing and in part because they were acting out for attention, because even negative attention was better than nothing. Socializing with classmates was heavily discouraged, and the longest conversation they ever had with one was when their dorm mate snitched on them for shooting a hole through the wall, which almost got them killed and resulted in them yelling at the dorm mate for a while. Most of their actual interactions were with the faculty, who did not like them because they were always acting out. However, since to the best of their knowledge this was just what literally everybody had to live with growing up and because the security was tight, they did not really try to do anything about it other than working hard on their major classes in order to avoid getting tossed out of the airlock. Even now, they don’t recognize this stuff as traumatic even though it certainly left them with some issues- any discussion of the worst aspects of their school is much more likely to come up in a casual conversation in which they talk about it as though it’s normal than a serious emotional one.

At age 13, Vreeza left school for their field research project, a routine activity for their school in which students would go do an independent study on another planet and then come back after six months to report their findings. Vreeza chose Earth because they figured its distance from home and its general obscurity would make their project more impressive and did not tell anyone which planet they’d picked because they wanted it to be a surprise, but within a matter of days they crashed their spaceship into a tree and totaled it. Luckily, this was after they’d already set up their house and lab, a tiny building about the size of a small motor home. Lacking any engineering knowhow whatsoever, they could not really do anything about the spaceship being broken, so they just set off a distress flare and hoped for the best. Nobody got the distress flare because Earth was way too far away for that. Nonetheless confident that someone would come pick them up eventually, Vreeza continued work on their school project: genetically engineering a really big radish. As impressive as this was to all their friends on Earth, it was really about on par with a baking soda volcano as far as their school’s standards were concerned.

After running out of rations, they just ate the extra radishes. Despite the many issues with Earth, including lack of appropriate food, horrible weather, unpopularity at the local gas station, having to figure out what was dangerous by trial and error, and the high likelihood of being in huge trouble for crashing their spaceship whenever they made it back home, Vreeza quickly figured out that they liked being stranded in the swamp way better than they liked school, although at the time they mainly just chalked this up to Earth being really cool instead of their school being bad.

About a year after crashing their ship, they went and bought a cell phone and used it to go on the internet and make some online friends in a chatroom, most of whom thought they were a really committed and entertaining troll or maybe like, a confused 10 year old, due to their habit of providing way too much absolutely batshit personal information on the internet. These were Vreeza’s first friends and they got attached fast. In addition to just being great to socialize with, their friends provided them with useful information about Earth such as “you should not try to pet a cougar because it will kill you.” Vreeza also made some attempts to befriend alligators, which they thought looked like they ought to be intelligent, but these attempts were fruitless and eventually culminated in Vreeza bringing an alligator into their house, and then having to kick it back out of the house after it bit their arm off and knocked over their refrigerator, much to the horror of their friends who were watching the disaster unfold as Vreeza liveblogged it. They still are somewhat bitter towards alligators, just in general, as a result of this incident.

First Group Chat

When Vreeza was 16, their human internet friends started encountering supernatural things, which made Vreeza really jealous even though none of their friends really seemed happy about the situation. Despite their best efforts to search the Everglades to find like, some sort of cursed object or something, Vreeza never found anything, which ultimately made their friends suspicious- humans uninvolved with anything supernatural were generally unable to see the supernatural things, even in photos, but Vreeza had no trouble seeing them and complaining loudly about there not being any around their house. After some speculation that perhaps living in Florida counted as being involved in supernatural events, their friends noticed that Vreeza’s selfies definitely fucking did not look human and began questioning them about it. Vreeza continued to insist they were human until one of their friends flew down to Florida to confront them about it in person, at which point they finally gave up on convincing their friends they were human. They still were not convinced that being an alien counted as supernatural though, and continued to get increasingly impatient about when their supernatural events would happen.

Shortly after this, Vreeza’s door got busted down by a SWAT team at like 5 in the morning. This was not about any of their significant amount of actual illegal actions, but about them being an alien. Although they managed to evade the SWAT team while sustaining only one injury, a bullet in their arm, and escape via airboat after shooting at the SWAT team and hitting a few of them, they were unable to make the SWAT team get away from their house and so they just had to go hide in the swamp. They kept their friends updated about the situation, and their friend Ted, who had turned into a dragon a week or two prior, flew to their location to help them out. Unfortunately, shortly afterwards an invisible man in a suit showed up, intending to offer an airlift and medical care but looking way too much like he might have come from the government and talking way too suspiciously for Vreeza to tolerate. After a heated standoff in which Vreeza demanded the invisible man go away, shot off their injured arm in an attempt to convince him they did not need any medical care, and threatened to shoot him, the invisible man tranquilized them and Ted for being too threatening, took them to the medical ward of the agency he worked with, and then “borrowed” Ted’s phone to tell the group chat what he’d just done. This proved to be an extraordinarily bad idea, as all of Vreeza and Ted’s friends assumed his actions were malicious, and their friend Gwen went to visit them.

Upon Gwen’s arrival, Vreeza woke up from being tranquilized and restrained on a hospital bed and immediately kicked out their IV, started yelling that this guy had kidnapped and poisoned them and was going to kill them, and began trying to kick nearby nurses in the face. This was a severe misreading of the situation, but Gwen took their word for it and began going on a rampage, but didn’t manage to get to Vreeza before they were tranquilized again and so had to carry them. Prior to being tranquilized a second time, Vreeza texted all of their friends that they’d just been poisoned and sent the coordinates for their location, causing all hell to break loose in the group chat once again. During the escape attempt, Ted accidentally set his own face on fire, resulting in him being transferred back to the ICU after the escape attempt was thwarted. After making a lot of threats and complaints, Vreeza convinced the head of the organization to let them watch hours and hours of surveillance footage so they could see that nothing had been done to them while they were unconscious, moped around for a while, almost choked on a rock in the cafeteria because they’d seen Ted eat one and figured that therefore they could probably also eat one, got their phone back, and were finally permitted to leave with their friends. This series of events is something Vreeza is still EXTREMELY angry about and they will take every opportunity to launch into very specific complaints about the police and hospitals. The agency that raided their house and the agency that picked them up are distinct entities, and neither one is the FBI or the police, but Vreeza has not bothered with figuring out the distinctions and will usually refer to both as either “the FBI,” “the cops,” “the government,” or some variation thereof. They’re certain they’re the same entity despite having been repeatedly told otherwise, because why the hell else would they both show up in the swamp to attack them on the same day? Following this, Vreeza stayed at Gwen’s house for a while before going home.

Second Group Chat

Shortly after returning home and fixing the mess in their lab that resulted from leaving it alone for weeks on end, Vreeza found an interdimensional group chat by googling “free chat room.” They’ve remained in that chat for the past few years, and have way too many friends on there for me to list, because there’s got to be over 100 muses on that chat and Vreeza’s friends with a pretty good chunk of them. For that reason, I’m going to just focus on plot events that are significant enough that Vreeza still talks about them and/or that were character development moments.

Shortly after they joined interdimensional chat, Vreeza’s school finally figured out where they had gone and sent a search party. Since it had been over three years at this point, the school had assumed Vreeza to be dead and was mainly sending the search party to retrieve their expensive equipment. Since Vreeza was not dead, though, the search party attempted to pick them up anyway, resulting in a confrontation in which Vreeza was the only survivor after Vreeza decided they were actually not a big fan of the idea of going home to get slapped around some more and be thrown out of the airlock for being too late turning in their project and would rather stay on Earth. This event was very upsetting at the time but Vreeza is mostly over it and will just bring it up occasionally to gloat about defeating the search party.

They kept in contact with their friends in their own dimension, too, and at one point spent a few days helping Ted deal with a problem on the island he and the other dragons lived on- some flowers were blooming that all of the dragons were really allergic to. Despite knowing damn well the ecological implications of doing such a thing, Vreeza hitched a ride to the island with a flamethrower and did their best to get rid of every single one of those flowers. They ended up stranded for a little while because Ted was too sick from the flowers to help them get home, but when they did get home, they took back a sample to try to isolate the problematic compound that was causing the reaction. They did this by paying Josh, a dragon who they do not like, 20 dollars to stand outside their house while they threw stuff they’d isolated from the flowers at him to see out if any of it made him have an allergic reaction. After using this super ethical method to determine what was up with the flowers, they sent it off to some friends in another dimension to get an antidote made because actually making an antidote was way outside of the realm of things they knew how to do.

A while after this, Vreeza got involved with the ACTUAL most traumatic event of their life so far, which they will probably not talk about unless directly asked because there’s just no way to spin it that makes them look cool: they went with two friends, Louis and Flacari from interdimensional chat, to go rescue another friend, Will, from being kidnapped in a bunker where unethical experimentation was happening. Although Vreeza went into this fairly confident and the group managed to break out several other captives on their way to find Will, it was generally an upsetting place to be for everybody, and by the time they actually managed to find Will and also Ananke, the guy who had kidnapped him, Vreeza had had enough and just immediately started shooting at Ananke. Unfortunately, it turned out Ananke was immune to lasers, so they did not accomplish much by doing this. They then proceeded to shoot at the ground near his feet to see if they could break the floor and make him fall over, and although it did not make him fall over, it did seem to catch him off guard and so they ran around the room firing at random for a while until Ananke used his powers to make them stop doing that and dredge up their general paranoia. Not one to be discouraged by horrible situations, Vreeza shot him again anyway, which prompted him to use his powers again but worse this time. At that point, Vreeza decided they were done with this entire business and were just going to leave the building, and shot a hole in the wall to leave through. Although Ananke was able to close the hole in the wall, it was painful for him to do, and so he was very angry and flung them at a different wall in retaliation. Still determined to get the fuck out of the building, Vreeza just shot a hole through that wall also, was flung through the hole by the same force that had been flinging them against the wall, and ran off. This did indirectly help save Will because it was so upsetting to Ananke that he also decided he had to leave the building, but Vreeza wasn’t even paying attention to the rescue mission at that point because they were busy going as far away from the building as possible. It was too cold outside for them to handle, and they passed out from hypothermia after yelling at everybody to leave them alone and then had to spend several months recovering from that whole debacle at their friends’ place. This was when they got their heated suit.

Chat went on a hiatus for a while after this, during which time Vreeza just stayed in their own dimension and worked on a variety of projects including creating glowing tomatoes and starting a YouTube channel that gained moderate popularity among people who thought it was an ARG or something.

Once chat got going again, Bill Cipher showed up claiming to be trapped in the chat room, which Vreeza took great personal offense to because they’ve got a lot of issues surrounding being trapped places and so they don’t think anybody ought to be trapped anywhere for any reason. Due to their personal issues about people being trapped, Vreeza immediately offered to help Bill out of the chat room if they could, but after a short argument resulting from him being stupid enough to try to use “Scales” as a nickname for them, Bill went offline for a significant amount of time. Vreeza assumed he got out on his own or something but a while later he showed back up with file downloads that he said they could download on their computer to get him out of being trapped, which they did immediately, as a matter of principle. This only accomplished moving Bill from being trapped in the chat room to being trapped in Vreeza’s lab computer, which Vreeza was concerned was a significant downgrade as their computer does not even have internet connection, but Bill seemed happy enough with it so they figured it was fine. This state of affairs went on for quite some time, during which Bill suggested making cop eating plants for home security and gave Vreeza blueprints for a weirdness detector which they used to find a very large frog, which they adopted as a pet. Although happy to finally have a pet, Vreeza nonetheless complained that they were expecting something actually weird and that living in the swamp, they had seen many frogs before. The frog's name is Homare-chan, and Vreeza did not name it themself - they asked their online friends to name it.

By coincidence, Vreeza encountered the tabloid photographer who frequently took photos of them and reported them as a cryptid, Verity Valentina, in the gas station near their house. Delighted to finally be able to clarify that they were not a ghost, they agreed to be interviewed, and the resulting interview was published shortly thereafter. Neither they nor Verity got the response they had hoped for from this article - Vreeza's statements were extremely confusing, so Verity was unable to get a promotion by interviewing them, and the publicity allowed the police to find out where Vreeza hangs out aside from their house. This resulted in a raid on the gas station that Vreeza hangs out at, which they narrowly escaped from after nearly destroying the building in the shootout. A bystander caught this confrontation on film and it went viral, resulting in Vreeza's YouTube channel becoming far more popular. Vreeza fled the area and went to stay with their friend Ted on Dragon Island until they recovered from their injuries. Unwilling to stop filming vlogs but aware that Dragon Island was supposed to be secret, Vreeza insisted that they were filming from Canada during this time period despite very obviously being in a tropical location.

Unfortunately, Bill had not come to Vreeza's dimension to hang out and act as a lab assistant, and so when the police raided their house after they'd fled, he left with the police. This made Vreeza absolutely furious, not only because he had ditched them to hang out with the cops but also because it made it clear Bill had been lying about being trapped in the computer, and they near-immediately published a YouTube video callout accusing him of being a bad roommate and a bootlicker. He did not respond to this, and has not shown up again thus far.

Third Group Chat

When their usual group chat became a bit inactive, Vreeza once again went searching for a new one to join. They did not leave either of the previous ones, though. The new group chat, a separate interdimensional group chat, is where they have been doing most of their socializing lately.

After a long uneventful period in which they talked to online friends a lot but didn't really do much aside from caring for their plants and running around in the swamp otherwise, one of Vreeza's new online friends, the Bookkeeper, fell into their dimension by accident. Delighted to have a new potential roommate who probably would not run off to hang out with the cops, Vreeza immediately invited them to stay at their house. Although the house was definitely not big enough for both of them, they nonetheless had a pretty good time hanging out until Bookkeeper went back home.

Right now, Vreeza is hanging out with two more online friends who ended up in their dimension, Marie and Natasha. Fortunately for everyone, these friends do not have to stay in Vreeza's tiny trailer home - Marie's spaceship and Natasha's van came with them, and so they're neighbors instead of roommates. They're working on building up fortifications so that the next SWAT team to show up has a nasty surprise.

Trivia

  • Vreeza swears so much because it wasn't allowed at school, and they are rebelling.
  • Vreeza's unusual typing style is because of a combination of a problem with their translator and their tendency to use shorthand.
  • Vreeza is slightly hard of hearing because they have been driving an airboat with no ear protection on a regular basis for years now.
  • Vreeza actually DOES know lab safety, they just actively refuse to comply with it.
  • Vreeza keeps their human disguise up even when they're alone because they are used to it now.
  • The relationships listed are only with my other OCs and their best friend, but Vreeza has dozens of friends and acquaintances, if not hundreds. Trying to put them all on this page would be time consuming and result in a confusing mess to navigate.

Relationships

Ted

Best Friend

Ted and Vreeza have known each other for years. Originally online friends, they hang out in person more often now since Ted lives closer than he used to. Ted was originally human but turned into a dragon, an event which was traumatic for him but which Vreeza is pretty jealous of anyway. Ted belongs to my friend Angel and his Art Fight page can be seen here: https://artfight.net/character/1824318.theodore-teddy

Homare-chan

Pet

Homare-chan is Vreeza's pet frog. It is technically an eldritch being from the nightmare dimension, but Vreeza isn't paying any attention to that. When informed of its nature, they began bragging to everyone that their pet frog was very powerful, but otherwise did nothing about it.

Verity Valentina

Acquaintance

Verity is a tabloid photographer who used to take cryptid photos of Vreeza in the swamp. When they ran into each other by chance at the gas station, Vreeza quickly agreed to an interview in order to clarify that they were not a ghost. They're on friendly terms but do not know each other well.

Mergiol

Search Party

In the main timeline detailed in the story section, Vreeza killed Mergiol when fighting off the search party sent to retrieve them for their school. However, in a different RP, Ted was there and managed to convince Vreeza to spare Mergiol. In that RP, Mergiol is now living at Vreeza's house because they have nowhere else to go, and things are very tense.
