KoyoRed

Koyo aka iiykoh is a Twitch streamer and roleplayer who used to portray his character "Koyo" or "Unit-KR02" in VRChat.
Rarely portraying the character any more this page archives some old character lore.
==Unit-KR02==
KR02 is a simulated "character" who spends time learning the environment of VRChat with zero knowledge of being a simulation themselves. The simulated character has appeared in multiple forms, originating from Unit-KR00.
KR02, the main simulation, appears as a red leaf-eared guy named Koyo.
KR02-2, the follow up simulation, appears as a small raccoon boy named Red.
==Explaining KR Units==
KR Units are known only as KR Units by "The Circle", a faction of higher beings who create simulated beings and place them into reality to see how humanity and other living lifeforms react to beings who look and act different from the norm. The origin of the KR Units tracks back to the KR Project, a project started by The Circle in an effort to play around with the lower beings of life, in an attempt to study the actions and choices made by not only the KR Units, but also the people and beings they interact with.
The KR Project consisted of 3 test subjects, and 2 variations of the third subject. All of these subject were placed under the control of one member of The Circle going by the name "iiyko".
Unit-KR00 was an immediate fail, as the simulated being immediately knew of its origins, and reacted negatively to the ideas of The Circle. KR00 was indefinitely shut down and the project was put to a pause for several years.
Unit-KR01 aka KisuRolls was simulated to be a mute girl with white hair and red eyes. The subject started out quite successfully, being unaware of its origin and simply adjusting to their life in reality. Subject KR01 was watched and studied throughout all their actions, and was considered the first successful unit created. KR01 managed to make friends, entertain people, and create a community even though they were unable to speak. However, after approximately 1 year and 4 months, KR01 had some emotional changes. They began to want to speak to their friends, and even started to glitch out due to the massive changes in the simulation's patterns. KR01 slowly stopped talking to their friends, until an attempt to speak to all the people they had befriended.
The Circle called for an emergency shutdown and used the research they had of KR01 to make updates and adjustments. This is where KR02 comes in.
KR02 aka KoyoRed was simulated to be a Leaf-Eared guy who was social, energetic, and adventurous. KR02 spent all of his life bullied by a leaf-eared race due to the pigment of his leaves, and the fact that he had a hybrid non-leaf tail. After the leaf people were wiped out by a massive space war, Koyo became a rogue who worked black market deals and even stole a sky pirate ship to continue his adventures. KR02 made many friends and many enemies, but most will remember Xuvi and Leaf as the friends who stuck around through it all.
KR02 was considered a pure success, and as such, The Circle and the KR Project decided to make a small change in KR02's life to attempt to make things interesting.
KR02-2 aka KoyoRed was simulated to be a raccoon kid who was entirely made to mirror KR02's steps. KR02-2, with the same chip as KR02, made the same friends and managed to get the same reactions as KR02.
KR02-2 is the current subject being tested and it is possible that this will be The Circle's final test and simulation.
