Hello! I'm Rika, a student studying graphic design while dabbling in a ton of different art forms! I'm also a huge fan of watching VCT Esports, especially my home team Paper Rex!This carrd serves as a collection and introduction to my different endeavours, across multiple social media accounts. Thank you for checking it out!I do not and will not ever use generative AI in any of my creative works. Please do not feed anything I create, draw, write, or produce into any AI database.

I tend to draw my OCs and characters I like, most of whom are cute girlie girls, usually from whatever media I'm fixated on. I usually turn my work into stickers and keychains, selling them at booths during Artist Alleys and other AGCE conventions. I also offer commissions for my artwork, primarily on Vgen.

I have many Original Characters who I dearly love, and I try to participate in Art Fight every year. You can find my characters here! Their profiles are filled to the brim with lore~

Drawing my OCs in dresses!

From time to time, when the mood calls for it, I write fanfiction and other short stories.I also have a habit of writing essays or rants under the guise of analyses for media I consume, both critical and positive!Due to these experiences, I've helped various friends and writers by editing and beta reading for them, including a fanzine where I acted as head writing moderator.

In my spare time, I've dabbled as a translator in fanmade content, usually in written text.My most ambitious piece was translating the entirety of Love and Deepspace's "Shooting Stars" from Simplified Chinese to English, including explaining all the nuances hidden behind localisation.Do note that the Xavier Translation Project I embarked on is currently on an indefinite hiatus.

Since befriending some EN Vtubers, I've started streaming gameplay and sometimes my drawing process on Twitch!My Vtuber model is of my main oc and sona, and I've been building a small community who watch and play video games with me! Feel free to join my discord, The Rika Lan, I'm always happy to have you!I'm still very new to streaming, and I don't have a set schedule, so thank you for your patience!

After the passing of my best friend and nine year old companion Blue the netherland dwarf, I've begun rescuing and fostering rabbits as I grieve and heal from my beloved pet. With rudimentary vet tech experience having worked in a vet clinic for a year, I try to help out local wildlife and abandoned domestic rabbits as much as I can.Live updates are often shared on my Discord server, and all donations/tips usually go towards buying pet food, litter, and toys for the animals I'm taking care of. If keen, do feel free to support the cause and what I do.Please spend responsibly and of your own accord, no refund requests will be entertained.
