• Cym has ASD, and struggles with a number of things in her day to day, from socialisation, to her senses (especially eating food and a compulsive need to be clean), and her need for self-scheduling. However, due to a diagnosis at a very young age, her family and loved ones know her in and out, and are willing to make the accommodations and considerations necessary to make her feel comfortable.
• Yes, her first name really is that long, much to her chagrin (it's pronounced key-mo-pole-e-ah). Her birth parents, a pair of successful human archaeologists, named her after a sea nymph from old Greek legend. As such, her name is pronounced phonetically in Inklish the exact same that we pronounce it. But please, for her sake, just call her Cym (pronounced key-m).
• Though she keeps it under wraps from most out of shyness, whilst not quite on the level as a professional, Cym is a talented dancer. She performed ballet as a child, and these days runs an account on Squid-TikTok, where she performs dance covers for a quite sizeable audience whilst disguising her identity with a face mask.
• Her favourite manga/anime series of all time is a magical girl saga named Coral Crystal Girls. As a kid, she met the mangaka behind the series at a convention with her adoptive mother, and along with receiving some encouraging words, she had her copy of first volume signed. It is her most treasured belonging. Some other favourites are the Squid-World equivalents of Dungeon Meshi, Cardcaptor Sakura, Chainsaw Man, and Soul Eater.
• Cym is deathly afraid of heights. She has managed to train herself to drown it out enough to use the modern Spawners, but you will never see her on stages like Crableg Capital or the New Albacore Hotel.
• She has faint blue freckles that she hides beneath foundation. She is insecure about them, but these days has no problem having them exposed around her loved ones.

• Despite her rather lanky nature and the fact she only plays the sport casually with her friends and family, Cym is actually quite proficient in turf war. Courtesy of her long background as a dancer, Cym makes up for her lack of power with her nimble nature. Her graceful, yet sharp movements have been likened to those who have witnessed it like a dance of sorts.
• To compliment her agile playstyle, she prefers to utilise weapons that allow her to remain quick on her feet - to that end, she mains the Splatana Wiper these days, whilst also getting in plenty of time with her trusty ol' Octobrush. She does, however, tend to be a little bit reckless with her Splatana, often needing to get it repaired every other month or so to the chagrin of Clio.
• Having grown up alongside her turf crazy big sister Sherri and best friend Andrea, it was only natural Cym would develop an interest in turf war herself. At Andrea, Sherri, and Sue's behest, she and Mochi decided to give playing it a try, and ended up enjoying it. Whilst they are much more casual with the sport compared to the others they know, including those in the professional turf team Seaptentrion, they simply enjoy playing it with their friends.
• Her favourite special is Ultra Stamp. It just tickles her brain right.
• Her Octobrush, part of the now out-of-print Kensa collaboration, was a Squidmas gift from her big brother figure, Roddy. Roddy is also responsible for Cym's penchant with and... slightly strange love of Splat Bombs.

How much of Cym's true self you'll see depends on how comfortable and safe she feels around you. Due to the effects of her birth parents effectively, in the words of her big sister Sue, 'ditching' the two of them as kids, coupled with childhood bullying and teasing at a young age, Cym is quite a shy and anxious person with low self-esteem. However, once she feels like she can relax around you and trust you, you'll see her true colours.

Cym is, in truth, a friendly, sweet, quirky and loving girl, who is rather upbeat in her own mellow way. She is also quite playful and mischievous, and often teases her loved ones. Around good company, she is notably snarky and witty (with a strong penchant for deadpan remarks) - thanks to the influence of her aunt-turned-adoptive mother Tavi, her big sister Sue, and her close friend Roddy, who she shares a banter-filled, yet loving big-brother-little-sister dynamic with. Despite this side of her however, to her chagrin, she is also notoriously easy to tease - a trait that her girlfriend Mochi exploits to great effect, though always lovingly.

When it comes to her hobbies and interests, she is, by her own admission, very geeky, and possesses an encyclopaedic level of knowledge toward everything she loves. So long as you are genuinely interested and promise you are not just humouring her, she will happily infodump and discuss with you at length any topic you ask her about. In her eyes though, she worries she can be a little awkward to deal with at times. She often grows easily flustered and overwhelmed over the littlest of things and conflicts, and frequently struggles to find the right words sometimes when expressing herself and how she feels.
