Previous affiliations and history.

Umi was initially planned as Cloter's duet partner in 2019, after being inspired by an obscure producer's song known as "Jellyfish" or "Kurage." Her design is inspired by other vocal synth mascots such as Otomachi Una, Tohoku Kiritan, and, more recently, Tsuina-Chan.

In early 2023, a proposal arose to include Umi along with Cloter in the VoiceFace, the idea arose again later that year, and the decision was made to distribute them for the 2024 virtual singer line-up.

After putting together and recording the databases, with slight changes to character appearance and personality, the publication for their VoiceFace databases was announced on May 3rd, 2024, a day after their fifth UTAU anniversary.

Personality and bio.

Umi is a curious, confident, and sweet girl with a heart of gold who doesn't shy away from innocent mischief and chaotic fun once in a while. Her adoptive father, Cloter, is often at the brunt of her chaos.

She is the reincarnation of a once world-renowned pop star. She has always been drawn to the art of music, and she is determined to rediscover her true self, even if she cannot recall the memories of her past life.
She is said to be a mutated physalia physalis (portuguese man o'war)

While Umi has a canon personality and backstory, it can be discarded for user's personal preferences. Please keep familial dynamics in consideration when writing.

Relations

Umi and Cloter found each other in purgatory, and due to the circumstances of their deaths, a familial bond formed while finding comfort in each other's presence. When they were given physical bodies that manifested the appearance of their ghosts to have a second chance at life, Cloter adopted Umi as his daughter. 

The two now live together and keep each other entertained. Cloter encourages Umi's passions for the arts and music while she keeps her father grounded and busy with her chaos and curiosity.

Backstory can be discarded for users personal preferences.

Since they first met, Umi and Degirl have been close friends due to their similar energy and personalities, which almost always bounce off of one another. The two are in a band called PRETTY☆GLITTER along with their mutual friend, Yuno. It is an amateur pop group that performs both covers and original songs together.

  • Fuyuki - Fellow VoiceFace member

They have no notable relationship set in stone.

Due to the two being friends with Degirl, they are mutually aquatinted and best friends. While they are not as close with each other as they are Degirl, Umi holds Yuno with high respect and looks up to him greatly. Relationship can be discarded for users personal preferences.

Due to headcanon within the VoiceFace group, the chemistry between Kidiloid and Umi is one-sided dislike. He is claimed to loathe Umi because he believes her "skin is wet" and will "mess up my circuitry," despite Umi's lack of personal opinion on Kidiloid. Despite headcanons, they have no official relationship is set in stone.
