Voice Sample(s)


Character Details


Height:

Weight:

Height: 5' 2.5" (158.75cm)
Weight: 100 lbs (~45 kg)

Character item: Shaved ice (and ribbons~)
Likes: Ribbons, bows, frills, friends, cats, colors, frozen treats
Sexuality: Asexual (can view Aro or Panromantic)
Basic Personality: Kara has an excitingly bubbly personality. Her openness makes it super easy to love or hate her on the spot. Made to be pure/full of light yet childish

This is just a base and you may go around it as long as the guidelines are similar or is for acting. She's romantically oblivious but can be shipped lightly with anyone and may sing any song you'd like her to sing.

Creator "Headcanons": Lore is Kara just popped up one day from nowhere & decided everyone is her friend. She's basically just a virtual model that can be as solid as she wants. Glitches out when there is an emotion given that she can't respond to (ex. if someone says something mean).

Listed as headcanon because these ideas do not need to be followed at all

Design

Kara's design was put together by the creator but did have help on outfit designs by friends and family.

Hair color: Dark Brown
Hairstyle: Medium length front hair with short hair in back. Her front hair is straight and layered on her right side and fluffy and wavy on her left.
Eye color: Purple
Accessories: Turquoise bow on left side of front hair. A rainbow-colored heart-shaped hair clip is in her front hair on right side.
Headset: Small black kitty-shaped ear bud with a turquoise mic attached
Outfit: Turquoise long-sleeved shirt with a darkish red bow as collar trim. Bow is the front and back, and front bow is tied with golden yellow ribbon to look similar to a cat's bell while the rest of the ribbon trails her back like a scarf. Over shirt has a hole in each of the shoulder area with lilac/light purple stripe in front leading to around to meet the lilac/light purple side stripe at the top on the back. Under shirt is a tight long sleeved royal blue shirt that as mesh in various places during summer and hole in the middle of the chest. Skirt is double layered with the top layer rippled (royal blue) and the bottom poofy (turquoise). Has long lilac/light purple thigh-high socks with knee-high royal blue shoes. Shoes are laced with turquoise ribbon topped with a bow and have a slight heel to make her seem 5 ft 4 in.
Special features: Has 3 vertical black stripes on her cheek to symbolize blushing, cuteness, youth. Her shoulder length twin tails are also just extensions.

Name Interpretation

心音 (Kokoro/ne; Heart Sound)
カラ (Kara; from/empty) - Kara is also a derivative of karafuru, meaning colorful
Kara can also mean pure in Greek
Cara (pronounced the same) is from Dear or Beloved in Italian & Latin

Altogether, it means "from the sound of the heart" and can mean "pure heart sound" & "beloved heart sound"

Trivia

Kara was supposed to be release in 2013 but couldn't due to various reasons, like confusion.
She's a cosplayer and loves wearing outfits and costumes. Even her twin tails are just extensions!
The CVVC JPN append names are named after the creator's other main characters.
Base personality is her creator's personality as a child.
Kara's original character item was going to be a Pikachu plushie that she would always carry around. It was also going to mimic Kara's expressions.
Kara's beta name was Voca.
Kara's last name isn't Kokone, but she chose it for the meaning (She's kinda weeb-ish, shhh). Kara Kokone is a stage name.
