Ruru, Cosplay Guardian from Another Realm

✦ another world

the world she left

Cute fox girl, Ruru, was born with incredibly powerful magic from a mysterious realm far far away from our human world. With her magic, she was destined to become one of her home’s greatest protectors, making sure her realm was safe from evil threats.

The only problem is that Ruru never wanted this kind of life for herself. She loved her home and her people, but her heart yearned for what was beyond the starry sky she admired every night. She longed to experience what regular human life was like on earth. She wanted to forge her own path and make her own choices instead of following what others said was her duty.

Eventually, her curiosity got the better of her and she sneakily left her realm to set sail for the human world she so desperately yearned for. Keen to fit in, she began cosplaying, using her imagination and just a sprinkle of magic to create elaborate costumes and captivating performances.

the world she chose

Her unique appearance and endearing personality quickly caught the internet by storm, making her an acclaimed cosplayer.

This fame wasn’t exactly what she was looking for though. Ruru originally came to earth to get to know people and share more of her life with them. She traded the stage for a PC set up and became a streamer as well. She played different kinds of video games, shared her stories and made a name for herself with her supportive online community. While she shares a lot of her life with her fans, she keeps her past under wraps. Behind the screen, the cute cosplayer and streamer is still a magical fox girl from another realm that hides her powers and her identity. With this new path, she finally gets to live the life she always dreamed of.

Out of character, and much more briefly: hello, I'm Ruru. I am a litol gremlin who is bad at video games but loves to play them anyway. I also occasionally cosplay.

Most nights that means Overwatch or League of Legends, where I insist the loss was a team effort. Other nights it is Stardew Valley and the slow, deeply serious business of farming. And then sometimes it is horror, which is really just an excuse for everyone in chat to watch me panic.

The stream is small and cozy on purpose. Chat talks to me, I talk back, and nobody has to be good at anything.
