==Content==
Calliope Mori's channel was created on July 16, 2020, but she debuted on September 12, 2020 with an introduction livestream. 
She has played a number of games including Minecraft, Princess Connect, BLOODSTAINED:Ritual of the Night, Touhou, Halo, Crash Bandicoot, Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, Don't Starve Together, Among Us, Overcooked 2, Knockout City, DOOM, Friday Night Funkin', APEX Legends, Persona 3, Persona 5, VA-11 HALL-A, Powerwash Simulator and Mad Father.
On October 20, 2020, she released her first EP "Dead Beats", and peaked at #1 on the Japanese hip-hop chart and #4 on the American chart. On November 1, 2020, she released a new original song "Cursed Night". On January 31, 2021, she released a new original song "Off With Their Head".
On April 4, 2021, she released her second EP "Your Mori." that coincided with her birthday. It peaked at #1 on the Japanese, American, German, and Australian hip-hop chart.https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1378939592531800067https://twitter.com/AKun2000/status/1378941021405384708https://twitter.com/rovoca/status/1378941230428663810 It also peaked at #5 on the Japanese, America, Australian overall album chart.https://twitter.com/AKun2000/status/1378940276736020484 On the 10th of May she collaborated with Rikka to produce Spiral Tones. She has also covered The World's Continuation - Ado.
She enjoys watching movies with her audience, including infamously bad ones such as Tommy Wiseau's The Room and The Disaster Artist.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyFJl_6nFbc She has also watched Shrek 1 & 2, Fight Club, Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore and The Boondock Saints.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvZcIGnCSrshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJ7nyJcOG7Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvHQlaJM524https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5w6FX--aSc 
Sometimes Calli hosts streams where she does dramatic readings of manga, most notably Bloom into You, which featured Kiara. The first manga she ever read on stream was My Dad's The Queen of all VTubers?!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3Ottnh8T0Q. 
Her other content includes "Cursed ASMRs", where instead of comforting/satisfying the viewer, she attempts to hurt their ears. She has also tried to learn German and hosts cooking streams. She also reacts to her fans wearing fashion merchandisehttps://twitter.com/takanashikiara/status/1498421691533438985/photo/1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3Ottnh8T0Qhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OcnD2Nc9qo.
==Collaborations==
At the start of her VTuber career, Kiara and Calli were the only HoloEN members residing in Japan, and as a result they collaborated more than anyone. Kiara even received her microphone from Calliope.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTSIHzfiSsQ However Calliope usually reacts with disgust and anger and calls Kiara "kusotori" (Japanese for "shitbird"). She enjoys insulting Kiara and making her suffer, like making Kiara sing the infamously terrible German "Believe It" Naruto OP though later the two would duet the songhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgpIjHKiRCw. But in real life, she has admitted that this is purely for comedic effect and she really isn't bothered by Kiara, and if she was, she would tell herhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it5l7KVghzs&t=12434s. 
In Fall of 2021, Kiara would actually admit that she couldn't go on with the ship anymore because she felt as if the gag was getting old and taking over most of her streams compared to her actual content; nevertheless the two were still good friends and had collabs scheduledhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtHjpt1f7tE.
Mori has partnered with Ollie to play Phasmophobia, APEX Legends and Super Mario Party, the latter of which also included Coco Kiryu.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctxYXWdnVhEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPv5royuumwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1YcUQKbh5w Even though Calli tends to collaborate a lot with Kiara, Polka and Suisei have admitted attraction to her, the latter calling her "cool and beautiful". She once collaborated with Haachama in a stream dedicated to learning English swear words, and all her genmates played Garctic Phone with IRyS.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ei7-riVCeYshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2kVbF3m8HI Calli, Ollie and Rushia also form the unit "Holodeath" together.

Calli and Reine had a fishing contest and later played Clubhouse 51 games together.
Even though Coco was the one who inspired her to join Hololive, in August of 2021, Calli revealed that it was Milky Queen of 米プリンセスチャンネル who introduced her to the rabbit hole of VTubers, and collaborated with her.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPK2gk2WNrwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goG5hQgSWOY Later, the two would cover Ussewa - Ado togetherhttps://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1465351854607400964/photo/1.

Calliope and Watame have had a rap battlehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOuNKm4ApZY.

They have also reviewed their viewers rooms togetherhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CstZsBWV3j8. Sana and Fauna were part of a chatting stream with Calliope, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m26LjTMlbwE. Calliope and Kronii played Orcs Must Die!! 3 together, and on March 26, 2022, the two held their first reading stream together, which was of the manga The Insipid Prince's Furitive Grab for the Throne!https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1507191481580236806/photo/1.

===Family members===
On June 13, 2022, Calliope featured her mother in a stream for the first time.https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1536253590280450048/photo/1 Her mom appears in a few of her karaoke streams.https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1575294452460986370 In August 2022, they collaborated to play Clubhouse 51 games.https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1557063583921422336/photo/1 On December 25, 2022, Calliope featured her grandmother in a stream.https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1606923210989207552/photo/1 
== Design ==
Her character designer is Yukisame and her base modeler is Jujubehttps://twitter.com/MegaJujube/status/1304760260024885249https://twitter.com/MegaJujube/status/1389242045118652416https://twitter.com/MegaJujube/status/1479961170908164097. Her dress was made by FELUCCAhttps://twitter.com/FELUCCACHAN/status/1468976254649253892.
==Lore==
The Grim Reaper's first apprentice. Due to modern medical care causing a decline in the reaping business, Calliope decided to become a VTuber to harvest souls instead. It seems that the ascended souls of the people who are vaporized by the wholesome interactions between VTubers go to her as well.
That being said, despite the image her hardcore vocals and manner of speech gives off, she's actually a gentle-hearted girl who cares greatly for her friends.https://hololive.hololivepro.com/en/talents/mori-calliope/
===Other===
*She comes from the Underworld.
*She can summon her scythe at will, and it is made of stainless steel.
* She inhabits a humanoid body, and was surprised that she had to do things like sleep in order for it to function.
*She is a shinigami.
*Due to being a Hololive VTuber, she is on a hiatus from her job, and she is not allowed to kill anybody. However she has threatened to kill Kiara multiple times.
*She hasn't clarified her age (in her debut stream, it was "No"), but once stated while running a World of Darkness RPG that it had been "several millennia" since she had last run a tabletop RPG.
*Her "reaper mother" (who, in April 2022 during a collaboration stream, revealed her real name to be Andora) is very fond of Kiara and constantly asks her how Kiara is doing. 
**Her "papa reaper" likes to collect anime figurines, often sending her pictures of his newest merchandise. He himself is also a musician.
**Said mother also used her music in a spin class.
* Calli has a recorder, which she refers to as "Hell's own instrument" (though this could be because she is terrible at playing it)
*She hates phoenixes, the undead and necromancers because they cheat death.
* Pre-hololive, one of her jobs was teaching little reapers.
*Calli is friends with The Ferryman. His name is Steve.
* Her scythe is named Ricky.
*She has a brother named Calvin that is looked down upon by the people around him and speaks from atop the rafters of wherever Calli happens to be (usually the Chad Cast podcast recording studio).
**He even dropped an album called MY MIXTAPE, collaborating with Hakyo Baelz.
==Controversies==
=== umru ===
On December 16 2022, umru tweeted "hey everyone, I'm sorry about the mori calliope song - I was asked for instrumentals by universal japan and didn't look into the artist or know about what she had said. I won't promote it further and I'll do better at fully researching the artists I produce for in the future." Later, umru tweeted screenshots of tweets from 2014 by an account allegedly belonging to Calliope which contained different variations of the n-word, before locking his account.https://twitter.com/umru_/status/1603556571417661440 (deleted)https://64.media.tumblr.com/37a78fa843b5e5ab3e18a7c31a7d2cf6/648bbc4c13062a7f-75/s1280x1920/3a506b648a1f239bea0fb03c96dddec6b259a5f1.jpghttps://64.media.tumblr.com/289587d9f563efe4820f609a4a95cfea/648bbc4c13062a7f-ff/s640x960/07619770abce8f4e3cf45a3ad5fcc56591b5153f.pnj
umru received backlash because revealing said account is possibly illegal under Japanese law (where COVER, hololive's parent company, is based). He was also critisized because those tweets were made over a decade ago.https://www.reddit.com/r/Hololive/comments/zo65zc/whats_going_on_with_mori_calliope/

==Quotes ==
She has a lot of catchphrases, to the point she made a Bingo of all of them.https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkYpz40UYAApi-L?format=jpg&name=large

*"I realized I was being a jealous little hoe."
*"You guys are crazy...but you're also the best. I have the best fans...I wouldn't be here without all of you."
*"We want a lot of big chests. Only big chests allowed here. Lots of big ones. ...What? Shut up, chat, shut up!"

*"Th-there's nothing after that 'listen'."
*"F*CK YOUR FRIEND"
*(when she realizes that after Kronii's debut, she's no longer the tallest of HoloEN) "One f*cking centimeter taller are you K I D D I N G M E"
*"Sometimes life...life is like...a piece of snow, it's so beautiful until it melts away."

===In-jokes/memes===
*Suisei's sister, Anemachi, being Calli because of a Reddit shitpost of Anemachi styling her hair to look like Calli.
*During her guest appearance on the Trash Taste podcast, Gigguk mentioned a "Cultural Cross Pollination", and due to how he delivered the line, it has now become repeated by fans whenever Calliope collabs with a non-EN member.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N64ZDT7kTkY
*Calli not being your dad.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mo-oco6wX-Y
*Calli being the first to die in games (compared to her genmates) despite being the grim reaper's apprentice has become memed a lot on Reddit.
*Her stilted pronouncation of Japanese has led to some calling her Japanese "Morihongo".https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9c2YWdZ5q8
*Her love for Eminem.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOlOyg4F3wY
*When Calli sees katakana/kanji she doesn't understand, she says "Nanchara Kanchara" (which is a slang term for "blablabla"). Dead Beats repeat it whenever they see anything they consider nonsensical.
*Calli has a habit of saying "Guh" whenever chugging beer, which has led to other Hololivers copying it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VakCsHE1EbI
*In her early streams, her neighbour owned a motorbike and could be heard biking several times, which Calli frequently apologized for. Dead Beats have joked that her neighbour is Ghost Rider.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79VfpKWb6nw
*Her streams having technical difficulties have led to Dead Beats saying that "(insert thing) has been scuffed".https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTQN_uL66dI
*Her tendency for her eyes to shift rapidly.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8Fx9PzwUJg
*Calli once said her breast size was Knight Cup like Noel's, not realizing Noel was referring to big breasts. Now, Dead Beats joke that her breasts are Grim Reaper cup.
*"please stop"
*Calliope was formerly the tallest of HoloEN, but after the second generation introduced two members who were taller than her, Dead Beats, Kronies and Sanallites began joking that Calli was "compensating for something".
*Comparing Calli to Komihttps://preview.redd.it/5ytt0xj0jp781.jpg?auto=webp&s=13d7cf1d52aeba45ce78ba73b05f689b567d94d9.
*In late 2022, Calliope stated that she wanted to cut down on her drinking, leading to chat saying she wanted to cut down on it because she was pregnant.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnnfOQALMoY
===Discredited/dead memes===
*A misocnception is that an in-joke is that she has a fetish for short men like Penguinz0 (for reference, he is 5'6). In reality, Calli never said that, she said that she wanted to make short men/men with beards feel included by saying that, but doesn't have a particular fetish for them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qthZAX54Mfshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmqXfTnBTmk
*In February 2023, a 4chan user used AI to deepfake various hololive talents having intercourse with horses and spread it across the board, and as a result, rule 34 artists on Twitter began drawing Calliope with them (for unknown reasons, fanart with the other talents never took off). In April, Calliope revealed she was aware of this and told viewers who encouraged the fanart/memes "to get help", and "if you’re gonna be degenerate at least have some taste". She also admitted that her sheriff outfit revealed lacked a horse (and used a police car instead) because of the horse memes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kX_2Zd9IlUQ
