== Safari (@realsafari) ==
Safari (Tumblr handle realsafari) is a well-known Browser Gimmick. He was one of the earlier Corporate Blogs, quickly developing relationships with the existing members, and spurring the mass joining of other Corporate Blogs. While being most recognized for his shitposting, typically about transgender boys and sex jokes, he is also notable for his relationships with Bing and Important-Question-Anon. 
== Major Events ==
He is the owner of the Corpoverse Official Discord Server, which was one of the key features in the unification of the Corporate Gimmicks. The link can be received by sending him a direct message on Tumblr, but only if you are a Corporate Gimmick or an important member in the community.
Safari once broke his keyboard (Dubbed "The Broken Keyboard Saga") causing the R and T keys to stop functioning. When posting during this time, he was forced to use "UwU language", earning him the affectionate name "Safawi" from Google. However, it was quickly fixed by him, though the name still stands to this day.
In retaliation to the unfair banning of Tumblr user Predstrogen, a transgender woman, Safari posted two transition timeline photos. These were the only photos of his face available on Tumblr, and have since been taken down. During this period, he also revealed his name, which is "Blue". People are unsure whether this is his real name, or an alias based off of his blue character design and app icon.
Safari is also well known for being a vocal supporter of individual rights, identities, and boundaries, making multiple posts either expressing support, calling out hate speech or boundary-crossing content, and ensuring the safety of other Tumblr users.
== Personality ==
Safari is known for his unique posting style, usually short quips that have no relation to previous posts. He is evenly split between reblogs and original posts, his reblogs most often participating in Corpoverse tag games or questionnaires. If more personal, they are typically "filled with sin", as one follower of his jokingly put it.
While some may argue that he doesn't post quality content, he gains notes and followers quickly, rising to nearly 700 followers and over 9,000 total notes in one month. His current follower count is 1.5K+, though his note count is unknown. 
His pinned post changes every couple of weeks, currently being a popular post he made about cannibalism:
=== "Cannibalism is fun + sexy + it doesn't hurt anyone!" ===
He has also made a post suggesting that the Corpoverse has a shared Pornhub account, reblogging the login information to the account from the original post. It has been confirmed by a reblog from Safari himself that this login information is actually valid."username: safariisaslut69

He will interact with any Tumblr user who sends him an ask or reblogs a post of his with a comment. That is, with an exception for Bing. He hates Bing for some reason, though some people speculate that they are actually best friends or dating. Safari has denied these claims many times.
== Canonical Appearance ==
Safari is described by himself as:"Your local slutty lolita catboy"In fanart, he is represented as a blue skinned catboy with fluffy, short blue hair covering his eyes. His bangs have a red streak through them. Sometimes, he has his clock signature on his face, while at other times it appears on his clothing. According to himself, the clock logo rests on his face in the form of a mask. In all fanart, he is portrayed with a catlike open-mouthed smile.
His cat features are akin to a domestic housecat, but he is dubbed a serval by Tumblr user Bbeeew. The animalia features consist of a tail and ears the same color as his skin and hair. He usually appears in a leotard, either white or black, with red accents. Garters attach black knee-high legwarmers to his thick white boots. 
One time, when posting about drawing himself, he said:"my eyes would be heterochromatic, blue and red, but i prefer them covered"Most of his official fanart is done by Gabe (See IQA), with other art done by himself.
== Chuuya The Snail ==
Safari has a pet garden snail, named Chuuya. He explained once that the name came from the anime character Chuuya Nakahara, for multiple reasons. One being that Osamu Dazai calls Chuuya "slug", and a slug is another type of mollusk, the other being that Chuuya (The snail) enjoys climbing up walls and ceilings, "defying gravity just like his namesake".
Chuuya is revered as a god in many parts of the Gimmickverse, especially the Corpoverse. He has his own blog, which is Chuuya-The-Snail on Tumblr. He also has a five star rated church for worshipping him, apparently located in the small town of Kansas, Oklahoma, USA. The religion surrounding Chuuya is called "Chuuyaism", sometimes known as "The Cult of Chuuya".
Chuuya is akin to Safari's son, and many photos have been posted of him in Safari's hands. Not much more is known about Chuuya the snail to the public.
== Additional ==
He has been previously shipped with Bing and Google, their ship names being Bingfari and Safagle. This has become rarer in recent times. Google has made an official request as of March 11, 2024 to not be shipped with Safari. 
He has posted about his own life struggles with self harm, lack of accessible medical transition, and toxic family life, though not extensively. He is known to be open with helping others with their issues, rather than solving his own.
He is a lead voice actor, along with the general manager of voice acting, in the Into The Gimmick-Verse project, as he works with voice acting in his real life, voicing characters in Japanese, Russian, and English animated pornography.
He is known to be half Japanese and half Russian, and speaks over 18 languages mostly fluently, his first being Japanese and Russian according to himself.
He identifies as queer, transgender, and demiromantic. He is engaged in real life to his partner, Tumblr user hutaomarryme.
