A custom character design made for me as a birthday gift by a close friend. Deliria features aesthetics drawn from the poolrooms, leafy sea dragons, and my biased color palette all mixed in with some creepy vibes. Her bio is still a WIP, but I headcanon her as a somewhat lonely creature that lurks within the poolrooms waiting for new people to show up. By nature, she seems playful and curious, albeit potentially shy, and when she's in the more shallow waters, she bears an extremely colorful appearance. However, even in the brightest light, her left arm, head, and shoulders are always cloaked in shadow which gives her an unsettling appearance and aura thanks to her glowing eyes.
In the deeper and darker waters, her colors change and her bioluminescence can be observed. Entering the shallow water to splash and play around with her isn't recommended, but so far there are no known fatalities for doing so. In the deeper, darker waters however, one should take extreme care around her and stay far away from the water or pass through as quickly as they can, as she likes to stay at least a meter under the water's surface and beckon visitors to dive in and play. Those who venture too close to the edge of the pool, or foolishly heed her call and dive in, never resurface.
The friend who created her and I both headcanon that she likes fish flakes and pellets, and those can be used to win her favor. Not that people are just casually walking around with fish food on their person when they end up in the poolrooms, but hey, you never know. Stranger things have happened.
She's an agile swimmer and prefers to stay in the water, seemingly unbothered by the chlorinated water of the poolrooms, but she has been known to pull herself up onto the poolside from time to time. While her movements out of water look uncoordinated and awkward, don't let your guard down. She's more adept at traveling on land than one might expect, even if only for brief periods of time.
