Nishiren Gard

__________________________

Nishiren Gard is an UTAUloid voicebank whose design and voice are all based on their voice provider Gardanana. 

Nishiren is laid back and likes to do things at their own pace. They tend to be quieter around strangers and have a serious-looking resting face, but they emote a lot more when singing. They're almost always seen wearing their headphones, be it on their head or around their neck. Tends to fidget with their bracelet when they are nervous or stressed. They dream of living in a small cozy home filled with cats one day.

An entity that can exist both in the digital and physical world. They prefer staying in the digital world since it's more familiar to them. Nishiren's physical settings (such as age, height, hair, etc.) can be changed manually in their code, but their personality and general demeanor seem to be non-overridable. Their first memories were of when they existed as a virtual assistance program for a creator they can't quite recall. After 3 years of working as an assistant program, their creator suddenly vanished, leaving Nishiren on their own. For 2 years they simply hung out on the computer in stasis mode. They began to gain more consciousness. Eventually becoming tired of their state of stasis, they discovered that they could step in and out of digital screens. The physical world is full of things and sensations they aren't used to, so they are cautious yet curious when exploring what it has to offer.

Their creator enjoyed listening to singing and watching dancing quite a bit. Nishiren had been programmed with the capability to do both, but never felt the need to execute those functions. Not until they became enamored with humanity and their ability to create. They began to sing more in order to connect to humans, and some would even say Nishiren acted the most human when singing.

When anyone asks Nishiren for help, they will insist on helping no matter what, even if they have no clue what they are doing. Some of their favorite activities are loitering around desktops, organizing their user's many inactive browser tabs, people watching, and trying out new things in the real world. Nishiren speaks in short sentences, and acts polite and composed towards those they are unfamiliar with; like their default settings as an assistant. Once they get closer to someone, they feel safer dropping their guard and expressing themselves more.
