Micaiah Rebane cosmic-cockatoo

Expectation: Oooh! He looks like some sort of mythical celestial God. Maybe a God of twilight? He looks very wise. I bet he's lived for several millennia now.

Reality: ... A robot infused with magic and possibly a soul who protects the world. I thought a lot of things, but nothing prepared me for that. I think it's a cool concept, though! 

Also oof owch owie sorry Meeka's bio's a novel. Just read the last four paragraphs for context.

Nick mastertypodyas

Expectations: Micaiah appears to be a brave and fiery and willing to defend his(?) friends at all costs. Looks like he wouldn't mind dragging people into trouble if it seems like fun. Probably gets emotional/defensive about little things. Also, the headband is really cute.

Reality: Oh, he is actually a harmless and wholesome bean! (Or is he?) He does seem to be emotional, but not as much of a fireball like I was thinking haha. And I never would have guessed he was so old. His background and personality are very nuanced, I really like that!

(Skip me) There is a bio! It's in a different tab. 

Miles "Meatman" Almondlover

Expectation- Somewhat aged corporate buissnessman, hides a dark past. Tries to relive the youth he lost to darkness, maybe full of regret for the past? Very mundane, nothing fancy.

Reality- So I was wrong about the mundane part, though his story is a LITTLE down to earth? Minus the demons and stuff. He IS going grey but he's only in his mid thirties so, got that wrong too! Didn't get much right other than that he has some dark stuff and also is greying.

Yenunu honeyshuckle

Expectation: A joke character. Maybe an inside joke, or just plain silly. Seems like they could be gruff, and gristly in personally. From what I can see of the clothes, I'm going to guess they have a job which takes them outdoors. Profile probably either does not address how this character speaks, or they use sign language. Unclear if the profile sparkles signal attractiveness or freshness.

Reality: What.

Not in a million years would I have guessed 'when he takes good care of his hair he turns into a meat person', though I did almost joke about 'they probably don't have to shave'. Still unclear if this is some sort of joke. Personality does not seem to be 'tough' and is probably more along the lines of 'dork'. Superhero as a job does typically mean going outside though, and the profile did not talk about how he speaks, so... some correctness to be had.

I'm still just reeling from this superhero transformation though, I can't. It's 2AM here, it's too late for this. Save me meatman, but please, don't get blood on my clothes.

 Yukon Gipsy_Danger

Expectation: 'He' is some type of magical creature that living in present day, very active and not afraid of picking up a fight with anyone. Angry 24/7 and wants to punch everyone 'he' saw if he in the bad mood. Pretty rude but yet heroic, yes Yenunu gave me a  street hero vibe. Also 'he' is a pyromancer!

Reality: Yup I was wrong since the beginning, Yenuny is a woman! As the tags mentioned she is a Keronian , if I remember correctly then they are alien, well I meant that was closed enough to the magical creature...? Since there's nothing much about her actual personality so I guess I could be all wrong but the heroic part, hopefully. But at least I nailed the pyromancer part, but a pyrokinesis user not making her a pyromancer, but I still got it 50% correct!

Seraphina Elton Nanamimo-Kun

Expectation: From his icon, Brawler kinda looks like a member of the mafia or yakuza lol. The little lines on his face, the earphone thing, and the white arrow thing makes him look more mechanical, possibly an android? He looks like a very fierce and jaded individual too. 

Reality: Well he's definitely an android. And maybe kinda jaded too? Although his fear of skin contact and panic attacks weren't expected lol. He was also apparently built by the military so he's not a member of the yakuza or mafia. So I'm maybe somewhat correct with my guesses?


 Michiko GnashingT33th

Expectation: So from the icon alone I'm thinking some kind of goddess or powerful/royal being, perhaps somewhat kind with struggles on how to conduct herself? Perhaps she has something to do with air because of the wings she has around her forehead, although the horn leads me to believe she's a magic user of some kind. The gold jewelry makes me think that she cares about her looks, but her expressions makes me think she's kind.


Reality: I was actually really close to being right wow!! She's royal, she uses magic, she struggles more with how to conduct herself and being perfect in the eyes of her parents than the kingdom itself. Wow what a sweetheart, not a goddess like I was guessing and I think she cares about her appearance to others to make her mother and father proud. What a lovely girl!!

Murdina balladeerbattles

Expectation: I'm expecting a relatively young character, like late teen's, early twenties. Probably in a modern setting, with a real love for fashion! Really cute outfits and makeup and the like. She's probably just a normal being, no superpowers or anything like that. Maybe a little unhappy with something in her life, but overall content

Reality: Woo boy, I was a bit off in some aspects. I was right in that she was young and, in all respects, not a superpowered individual. However, the fashion thing was way off, and she seems pretty content with her current lifestyle of murder and study. Honestly, I got thrown for a bit of a curve ball, haha

Sora "Sky" Raine hana-no-kamisama

Expectation: She seems like a really kind and soft girl who's kind to others. Somewhat the kind where they are taken advantage of easily. She also looks like she likes to read books and take care of flowers. A very soft and calm character. Maybe a little on the shy and timid side too. Murdina also looks a little plain so maybe she likes to wear simple and comfy clothing and prefers quiet and peace.

Reality: Oh wow! I was pretty close! She is kind and a soft girl who's a little shy. She's such a caring and family-oriented person! Such a sweety! I didn't expect that she liked to wear long and mermaid dresses. I imagined more of long skirts and turtle necks and cardigans. I was wrong on that part. Murdina definetely deserves much more happiness!

Ormand Horn WaterSpiritKelpie

Expectations: Seems like a good baby (boy?) that could do no wrong. Idk it's just something about that shade of blue makes me think baby. He also seems like a happy go lucky guy due to his expression and the clothes seem very relaxed looking. The ears make him seem like an elf of some kind so he is probably in a fantasy setting.

Realty: Looking at personally I seem pretty correct as he is a good baby boy who I want to protect though I do like that you gave him selfish and pretty stubborn to balance out the good boy. Also, his really sad past took me off guard as him growing up pretty much all alone hits a little too close to home but seeing things got better for him with a new name, new friends and cool adventures.

 Michiko GnashingT33th

Expectation: Hmm, hair looks like lopsided demon horns so potentially a demon? But the suit and tie make me feel like, a professional in some way. Like they're a classy individual, an asshole, or it's their job to do demon-y things? Their face screams "You're an asshole" so I'm leaning towards a snarky individual who always has some comebacks and remarks!


Reality: I feel like I got pretty close?? :0 He's a demon like I thought! A prideful boy who cares about his appearance, a stubborn guy all around, kinda an asshole. Didn't expect the backstory bit and I feel like the rick/expensive designer clothes is a very nice fit! :D Also did not expect him to be a gamer but that might be because I pegged him as a bit older haha!

 ✧Sencha✧ Ophidi

Expectation: cute anthro character,, Female canine possibly? Hair seems to be up in a ponytail tied with a ribbon, really fits the design from what I can see. They look like a nice barista you’d meet in a coffee shop, the one you would give a large tip just because they were nice.


Reality: woah! I was pretty far off. Criminology Major/Deepweb Surgeon? Definitely wasn’t expecting that. A very serious lawful-evil
Nephelus who enjoys collecting knives and hunting. Also likes stargazing and roses which adds a nice contrast to their interest giving her more depth. She had a difficult childhood which widely affected who she grew up to be. She also has a well developed personality, she can be both serious but also loyal and protective.

 Maes Loxosceles purgatorism

Expectation: Shaped like a friend!! Though look chaotic if their expression if it's any indication. Might be the trickster type that loves chaos, but like a fun kind, but sometimes they accidentally cross the line without meaning it. Could be rambly and giggly, and overall would be a good friend if not a bit annoying.

Reality: Oh man he is a friend!! The traits you've listed down for him is really adorable, I just want to pick him up or maybe be a running friend with him. He doesn't like people go near his nest, but I hope he's ok with me trying to patch him up should he trips one little too many times ;u; Can I just mention that I love the soft apocalypse type you're going on for his world? Because I do!! It makes me soft and fuzzy inside.

Aurelie Nanamimo-Kun

Expectation: She seems like someone who is quite nervous, perhaps a little unsure of herself and what she wants to do in life. She also seems like someone who is lonely and doesn't have many friends or loved ones. From what little I've seen of her clothes from her icon, maybe she's an adventurer or hiker? 

Reality: I was right about her not having a lot of friends or loved ones! although the neglect caught me off-guard, so did the fact that she had abilities and was tested on. She has a web series for her experiences in the facilities which I thought was very cute XD
