Brownyan

Brownyan (Japanese: チャイロニャン Chaironyan) is a Rank C Fire Attribute Yo-kai of the Charming tribe.

## Medallium Entry

### Old

"A brown cat who sacrificed himself to save their owner from a truck. When he became a Yo-kai and got a good look at himself, he found his form too plain, and wouldn't stand out much. These fears grew worse when he found out how many Cat Yo-kai there are, many with far more interesting appearances. Although he did learn to be alright with his plain look, it's always a thought at the back of his mind."

### New

"A brown cat who sacrificed himself to save their owner from a truck. He’s easily recognizable with his solid color fur, big ears, and long tails. However, Brownyan doesn't believe this to be true."

## Appearance

A Brown Cat Yo-kai with a similar basic appearance to many other Yo-kai of his kind. His ears are bigger than almost every other Cat Yo-kai, and he also has very long tails that notably do not have flames at the tip. In addition to all of this, he has a really fluffy neck.

## Story

### Original Life

Brownyan used to be a cat named Daniel. He lived with his owner, Daisy for most of his life. They went practically everywhere together, whenever possible, and Daniel would often watch TV with Daisy or when she played video games. One fateful day at a infamous intersection, Daisy crossed the street while not paying attention to either side. Daniel, who was distracted by a nearby butterfly, realized that Daisy was crossing the street… with a truck heading straight at her.

Without any moment to hesitate, Daniel leaped forward to push her out of the way, getting hit by the truck in the process. He was still conscious for a few seconds, with the last thing he saw being Daisy’s face, until eventually passing away. The next thing he knew, he was standing a short distance away from Daisy. He noticed what she was holding, him, with Daisy having a devastated expression. While Daniel tried to tell her that he was okay, he realized she couldn’t hear, nor see him. He just let everything play out, not interrupting anything, even if it didn’t matter if he did. He ascended to the sky a few minutes later, to begin registration as a Yo-kai and begin his new life as Brownyan.

### Present

About a year after the incident, Brownyan was relaxing in the corner of the alleyway he called home, But he noticed a box that wasn’t there before. He initially didn't think much about it, but he got curious, and opened it up. To his complete surprise, inside was a Yo-kai Watch Model U Prototype and a note saying “Congratulations! You have been selected to test the prototype of the newest Yo-kai Watch!” along with the instruction manual after the note. Brownyan believes there must’ve been some sort of mistake. He heard about the prototype a few days earlier, but knew for a fact that he wouldn’t get it. So why would he, a complete nobody in the Yo-kai world, be given the brand new prototype of the next Yo-kai Watch?

Despite his confusion, he decided to keep the watch. But it's not like he actually used it, since he could already see Yo-kai, as he is a Yo-kai himself. But one day, he came up with a great idea, to give Daisy the Yo-kai Watch. But the problem was that Brownyan didn't remember where she lived, or even if she was still in Springdale. He hadn't seen her since he became a Yo-kai, so he tried to brainstorm for a few days on where she might be, but he didn't come up with anything. One day, he decided to visit the intersection he remembered all too well. He wasn't really expecting to find anything, but then a girl walks past him. He immediately turned to look, and it turned out to be Daisy.

He kept all senses on her, while also trying to figure out how he'd give her the watch. But Daisy ends up crossing the road, and Brownyan is immediately on high alert. He hears a truck driving by, with Daisy not noticing, assuming all is fine because of the green light. Brownyan dashed forward, tossed the watch to the other side, leapt and pushed Daisy out of the way, leaving Brownyan to get hit once again. He ends up landing onto the side Daisy was crossing, badly injured. Daisy, confused as to what pushed her forward, immediately looked around, That push was weirdly familiar. She noticed a watch on the ground, which she picked up. She noticed a button on the side, and pressed it, and the light ended up shining exactly on Brownyan. She immediately notices that the cat on the ground is badly injured, and also strangely familiar, but she ignored that feeling and went to tend his wounds immediately.

She picked him up and checked for a collar or name tag, but didn't find any. The cat also looked odd, with the two tails and other strange properties. But again, she didn't dwell on those details, She didn't have any first aid on hand, but her home was closeby, so she ran home, carrying the cat with her. Brownyan whispers "It's been so long..." but Daisy didn't hear him. Once she was home, she immediately grabbed the first aid kit on the shelf near the door and ran into her room. As she tended to the wounds of this cat, there was still this feeling that this cat was familar. Once she was done tending his wounds, she still knew something was off, the proportions of the cat just looked really off, But then, this cat speaks up. "Heh, heh... even one year later, you still failed to notice an incoming truck..."

Daisy immediately freaked out a little at the talking cat, but then Brownyan explains everything, about the Yo-kai Watch, Yo-kai in general, and more importantly, who he was. Daisy was in shock, the friend she knew was gone, standing right in front of her, who just saved her for a second time. Tears were shed, and Daisy immediately went in for a hug, which Brownyan wouldn't decline in any way. Brownyan briefly explained his situation, and that he'd get back to his corner in the alleyway once he fully recovered. But Daisy brought up the idea of living with her, which Brownyan was hoping she would say. Brownyan immediately accepted the offer, mentioning that he'd grab his stuff from that place once he was in a better physical state. He remembered the watch, and asked if she still had it, which she did, and Brownyan just told her that he'd recommend holding onto it.

About a month later, Brownyan's made a full recovery, He got his stuff from the alleyway, which wasn't much, though he didn't need the small mattress since Daisy actually kept his bed around as a memory. With his best friend reunited with him, he's hopeful. Being a Yo-kai won't be so bad after all.

## Variants

### Chairo

Brownyan's ancestor from Japan, though his origin stems from Springdale. Chairo is a strong warrior that's been training even before becoming a Yo-kai.

## Trivia

* Brownyan is based off the creator’s Build-a-Nyan in Yo-kai Watch 3. While originally named Brownyan, they changed his name as the name was “uncreative”. His name was changed to “Eveenyan” short for Eeveenyan, and had beige at the end of his tail, intending to mimic the Pokémon Eevee. Later on, his name was changed back to Brownyan, and the beige coloring was removed.
	+ Brownyan originally had white instead of yellow on his eyes, and the inside of his ears were the same color. The latter was due to a limitation in colors. Any other changes like ear and tail size are because of the limitations.
* Brownyan's name changes in different languages based on what Brown is called in other languages. For example, In Japanese, his name is チャイロニャン (Chaironyan) while in Spanish, his name is Marronyan.
* He has a custom 3DS Theme that can be downloaded here.
