Personality

Papa’s Little Tiger - Lily is very passionate about his father (Nion) and has quite the temperament when it comes to anything involving his father, like a feral tiger.

Not So Shrinking Violet - Lily has his episodes of shyness, hiding behind something or someone he knows, until properly acquainted.

Deeply Rooted To His Roots - Due to having been created as a digital copy of a flower, Lily still has strong connections to plants, to the point that mistreating them can upset him.

Abilities

Ability Format
Advanced Digital Being

Advantages
+ Elemental Form (Data)
+ Electronic Interfacing: The ADB is able to bypass the security of any electronic device that they have direct physical access to.
+ Animal Form (White Tiger)
+ Elemental Immunity (Electricity)
+ Beast Tongue
Disadvantages
- (Reduced) Restricted Diet (Electricity)
- Weakened Attribute (Durability)
- Cold Blooded
- Elemental Weakness (Fire)
- Pollution Sensitivity

Core Advantage
Anima Vines - Lily possesses the ability to create and manipulate up to 8 vines created from himself, up to 5 meters each and thickness ranging from half a centimeter to 3 inches, which can be then utilized in a variety of ways, such as binding, lashing, protection, as well as to “connect” with plants to communicate and exchange energy, which allows him to mutually heal himself and the plant he connects with. The vines have sensory capabilities, allowing him to smell, hear, taste and feel through them, although they have short effective range for smell and hearing of about three feet, and taste and touch requires direct contact to function.
Bonus
  • (Initial Bonus) Reduced Disadvantage - Restricted Diet (Electricity)
Nerfs and Flavor
  • Elemental Form (Data) - This involves Lily reverting to his White Tiger Lily self in order to become data, which makes him far more vulnerable due to being unable to move, meaning he can’t even use his Anima Vines in this form.
  • Electronic Interfacing - Lily uses thin Anima Vines to connect to electronic ports.
  • Animal Form (White Tiger) - While in this form, Lily is incapable of communicating with words, but animals can still understand him fully. Additionally, this form has flowering vines grown all over him, usually with thornless roses, violets, daisies, or lilies, but flowers will vary.
  • Elemental Immunity (Electricity) - Not exactly immunity, but rather that he can store and then ground any excess of electricity. his threshold of electricity is very high.
  • Restricted Diet (Electricity) - While he needs electricity, Lily is also capable of converting sunlight into electricity like a natural solar panel, or absorbing residual electricity from the soil, helping reduce his need for pure electricity.
  • Elemental Weakness (Fire) - Fire spreads much more easily on him than it normally should, regardless of the form Lily is in.

Current Situation

Occupation

Housing

History

Date of Birth
First week of August 2023
Place of Birth
Nion’s Digital Backroom
Lily, originally known as Specimen #5 “Hanako”, was created as one of Nion’s attempts at creating a plant-based life form to populate the virtual representation of Polaris Pass in DataSea Connection, as well as to create hope in saving near extinct plants by creating a compatible digital replica.

Unlike previous attempts, Lily has been created first as a codebase and later given form, allowing him to effectively create his own data structure and learn all he needed to survive outside the digital environment. And even after being given form by Nion, “Hanako” was still allowed to access the internet and learn more and more, eventually figuring a way to expand his data and attain a new form… From that day onwards, he has turned into a being similar to a Dryad, and given himself a new name: Lily Byakko.

Pursuing a way to return the favor to Nion, whom he came to call a father, he devoted himself to being a self-proclaimed botanist to improve his knowledge on creating plant-type ADBs.

Additional Information

Art Credits
None yet
Anything Else
  • Lily tries to make sure that other Plant-Type ADBs won’t learn to do what he did to himself, mainly because he does not want other plants calling Nion “Dad”.
    • However he does refer to Nion as “daddy”, “papa”, or even use Japanese terms to refer to him as his father.
