Fang

Fang is a vampire who makes content in English. He is in the process or learning Japanese. His streams are primarily gaming, but he occasionally does ASMR, and enjoys sharing and improving his education in various topics from writing to economics and science, incorporating it into stream discussions. He is also a fiction writer and owner of a public Minecraft server network called MaximumMC.

His personality is highly outgoing despite not having overcome a degree of social awkwardness. Instead of trying to overcome it, he has embraced it! He also has some sadistic tendencies that appear not-infrequently, enjoys messing with others, and will call out and mess with chat members and chat as a whole. That said, he said he welcomes chatters and lurkers alike.

He is 22 (1998) but has a severe case of boomer-brain; he is out of the loop on virtually everything socially relevant to most people, including pop music, most sports, some films, and many memes.

He has said he watched over 300 anime, but does not watch it frequently now, and is apparently an anime snob. He has called "most anime" trash, but says that such is not reason to dismiss the genre entirely. He does still keep up with a number of currently-airing shows, be they anime and live action, and hosts movie nights with friends on Discord.

He is highly protective, albeit somewhat possessive, of others, and possesses very strong moral values and political opinions, though he usually respects those who disagree, so long as he can find some sense to it. He is willing to drop a subject if need be.

Fang is a vampire apparition, turned at age 22 on 11/11/2020. He not only drinks blood, but devours humans and other apparitions entirely for their life force. Bites from vampires are often noted as strangely pleasurable.
