XYL0phonic

## XYLOphonic

goober

Xyl0 is an original character created and played by Whit (ASTERnomical). He's in Danganronpa: Nihilmania.

### **Appearance**

Xyl0 has light blue-gray hair covering his eyes. His eye colour is unknown. He wears a dark teal t-shirt with a tbh creature on it underneath a dark blue hoodie, the sleeves covering his hands most of the time. His arms and legs are invisible (he still has hands and feet), but he wears black boots with glitched detailing.

### **Personality**

Xyl0 is short tempered, easy irritable by some members of the cast (cough cough tan cough cough). He hates it when people get his name wrong, and also hates it when people only see him as "that inhuman glitch guy with no limbs".

Not even the hosts have much information about him, but he insists on not telling them anything.

### **Backstory**

Again, not much is known. What is known is that he lives on his own and has no family, and has faced discrimination based on his appearance in the past.

### **Danganronpa: Nihilmania**

#### **Prologue**

Xyl0 didn't do anything apart from hate it here. Whit forgot to be here for the prologue so uhhmm AHAHAAAA

#### **Chapter 1**

##### **Daily Life**

First thing he did was go to his room, put up the star shower curtains and go to sleep. He then woke up at like 11pm and left to explore, which lead him to Club Aikido, where he saw Emira, Tan and Anthony. Tan was immediately like "EDJFGRDF AAAAAAH ITS THE GUY WITH NO LEGS" which freaked Xyl0 out. Tan then begged Xyl0 to save him from Emira, because apparently she was holding him hostage. Xyl0 said that was ironic considering the whole killing game was keeping them hostage. After some shit about a fragment, Emira is forced to leave, and Tan starts pestering Xyl0 about why his limbs were invisible and such. Tan then gets Xyl0's name wrong, Xyl0 corrects him...and then Tan does it again. He then says that Xyl0 likes "to play god", and asked if there was anything else he needed to know. Xyl0 expressed visible annoyance and said he wasn't going to reveal any information to the hosts because he hates them...much to Tan's delight. He continues working out more information on Xyl0 and irritating him even more before leaving.

Megumi comes into the club to explore and finds Xyl0...also exploring. They talk about the place, and then the hosts, and then she talks about how much she hates Fumihito. Xyl0 asks why. Megumi responds: *"...well for starters, he likes men."*. Xyl0 misinterprets this as "I hate him because he's gay" as apposed to what she actually meant: "I hate him because he's gay which doesn't work because we our parents are making us marry.". Megumi clears things up, and Xyl0 says that his parents weren't like that...because they don't exist. Megumi says he could find some form of family figure if he leaves alive. Xyl0 says he doesn't need one, but he does get lonely at times, which Megumi can't relate to. Xyl0 begins remembering *bad things.* Static ensues. Megumi then asks about Xyl0's...Xyl0ness, but - unlike Tan - she isn't rude about it. They then part ways.

Day 2. He enters the dining hall. Kumi greets him...and asks if he likes eggs. This isn't the last of this, there is more, get ready. Xyl0 doesn't like eggs, which makes things even MORE awkward. Kumi then gets his name wrong, and then Xyl0 corrects them. Kumi asks how his parents put a number on the birth certificate, and...well...um. You know. #parentless. Kumi is confused, because this bitch is 16!!! Where does bro live!!!! Xyl0 says he lives on his own in his apartment, which confuses them even more. Kumi then goes to ask if Xyl0 likes cheese, but Yuzuki shows up, making a pineapple juice for her and Xyl0. They then talk about how quiet it is. Xyl0 then eats a cheese. That's your question answered, Kumi. Kumi asks if he likes cats, before dismissing it and getting food for the other members of the scooby doo mystery squad up fortnite tilted towers gang. Xyl0 says he likes cats. Kumi and Yuzuki leave, but the latter invites Xyl0 to join them, which he did.

The trio arrive to Kumi's room. Zenkichi's there, doing god knows what (i think he was robbing kumi ...). Zenkichi, Kumi and Yuzuki talk while Xyl0...probably spaces out or something I don't know. Kumi then says about how they needs to give Emira her food. Xyl0 offers to do it. Kumi gives him Emira's food and he leaves. It was *then* that Zenkichi registered Xyl0...being Xyl0 *("H- ...Hey, so. Um. Is it just me or did-.. did that person have no legs?? And- And floating hands???").* Kumi responds with an *("Aha. What.")*. Yuzuki says that it's really weird, and she assumed he was some kind of robot. Meanwhile, Xyl0 delivers the food to Emira, along with a note, asking if she'd want to talk about the fragment she got yesterday. He then goes back to Kumi's room. (I think now's an appropriate time to mention that Xyl0 gave her the wrong one on accident. Emira finds it, reads the note, says: *"Heheh.. of course, I'll talk to you later."*. She never did. She then eats the food, and hates it, because it's the wrong one. Pain, agony, suffering). Zenkichi then very awkwardly asks *"Where're 'yer legs??"*. Xyl0 says they "walked off". Yuzuki then asks how the fuck Xyl0 walks with no legs connected to his feet. Xyl0 responds with *"One foot in front of the other".* Zenkichi then responds with *"Rayman physics, what th' fuck."*. Xyl0 is very uncomfortable. Zenkichi continues to VERY AWKWARDLY ask how Xyl0 works, before waving his hand in the gap between one of Xyl0's hands and his torso. Nothing. Everyone is sent into wordless shock. Xyl0 is sent into wordless discomfort. Everyone leaves.

Day 3. Back to the dining room. Hi Souta. Souta assumes Xyl0 came for food, and offers him some. Xyl0 declines because he doesn't need sustenance because he's Xyl0!!!!!!!! Souta then asks about Xyl0. Xyl0 shows him what Zenkichi found out and waved his hand in betwee his arm and torso. Nothing. Souta is GOBSMACKED. Xyl0 is annoyed about all of this, saying that it's the only thing people talk about. Yuzuki and Zenkichi walk in mid-rant. Xyl0 apologises for getting so upset. Zenkichi and Yuzuki eat in the background like they're not a part of the problem. Souta switches the topic and they talk about the hosts. After talking about them, they all part ways.

The motive's been revealed: secrets. Xyl0's secret is as follows: *Those toxic traits of yours aren't gonna get you any more friends. Your chances are lost. You've been alone forever and you'll be alone forever.* This hits Xyl0 *hard*, and he starts fucking crying. Lol! Seele notices this (because bro is being loud as hell), and goes to console him. It works, they then go to the birthday and do a whole lot of nothing (Xyl0 does ask Fumi for a notes app though). Good job boys.

A few days later, Seele runs into Xyl0 again. They talk. Seele asks if Xyl0 does anything else other than writing. Xyl0 says he sings sometimes, and Seele wants to hear it, so they go to the club, and...don't sing. Oops.

It's been a while, and Xyl0 still doesn't have that notes app. So he yells for Fumihito, who is...in his bathroom because he's arranging the towels and the soaps (despite them being untouched!!!). Xyl0 asks for the notes app, and Fumi says he'll add id in late-- eye jumpscare. An eye coin fell out of a hole in Fumi's pockets. Xyl0 asks if it's a real eye, and Fumi goes on to explain about the coins. Xyl0 likes the idea of using the coins to have food delivered to your room, because he doesn't like people!!!! Because they were really mean to him. Fumi replies with *"That is. Discrimination!! Discrimination is not good I have experienced a lot of it I'm really sorry."*.

##### **Deadly Life**

Xyl0 leaves his room because Tan is fucking YELLING. He then leads everyone to Kingston's corpse in the bar. Did I tell you Xyl0 doesn't get along with bars. Xyl0 leaves the bar, along with John. They then talk about how not good the corpse is!! John says it might be a bar fight, and Xyl0 gets uncomfortable. John apologises though. They then talk about the secrets and head to the elevator once everyone is done investigating. Xyl0 asks about the secrets. Jeanne tries to reassure him, saying *"If you kicked a dog, it isn't that bad."* and *"Whatever you did won't be a shock with all that's happening, sugar.".*

In the class trial Xyl0 says one smart thing and then fucking crashes. I don't know what you want me to say.

#### **Chapter 2**

##### **Daily Life**

I assume someone dragged a bluescreened Xyl0 out the trial room and into his bedroom. He then "wakes up" with a CRAZY HEADACHE. He asks someone for painkillers via the chat and Seele comes in clutch (slay). They then talk about the secrets, and Tan tells them who has their secrets. Yuzuki has Xyl0's, so he left to find her.

He finds Yuzuki in her room, and she lets him in. He says he's here because of the secrets, and she replies with *"Toxic traits, huh..? I mean, I can see them."*, but goes on to reassure Xyl0, saying that it shouldn't stop him from making friends and such. She then goes on to ask him to talk to Seele for her, because she's curious about what happened to her in the trial (because seele went veliona mode!!!). Thing is, Xyl0 already kinda knows about it (he was told in the elevator) so he kinda explained it a bit to her, and I assume she left to talk to Seele.

Next day, him and Karma decide to check out the church (because its scary ooga booga). Xyl0 points out the stained glass windows of the hosts, and Karma goes on to explain th-- Kumi and Socrates jumpscare. Xyl0 freaks out, coming to the conclusion that Socrates possessed Kumi. Kumi denies this. Xyl0 then asks Kumi if Socrates is possessed, and Socrates responds with *"hhhhghhghghh**hhhhhhhhhgghhggh**Hhhhhgh"...*which - according to Kumi - means he's sleepy. Karma and Xyl0 don't believe this, both still believing it's possessed. Xyl0 then finds an organ and...plays...Megalovania. Socrates responds with *"yrtne fo uoy evirped llahs setag ylraep ehT"*. Xyl0 thinks that's not very nice, and asks Kumi to teach it to be more nice, which they...kind of do? I mean they kinda just told Socrates to be more nice. Lol. They then continue awkwardly talking, until Kumi offers Xyl0 a chance to feed Socrates. He reluctantly accepts, shakily holding a cracker out to Socrates and warning him that if he bites Xyl0 then he'll scream. Socrates...then proceeds to lick the cracker. Silly! Xyl0 doesn't know whether he's doing good or not, and Kumi responds with *"Uh... I think this is a good sign... maybe? I don't know. At least my ears are not bleeding."*, which concerns Xyl0. Bug comes back, meaning it's time to show Karma Megalovania!!! Xyl0 asks for their thoughts. Karma responds with *"You can play the organ."*. A lot. Eventually she says that Xyl0 should stop playing the organ, which saddens him. Karma then explains that she just really doesn't like Megalovania, and Xyl0 goes back to the organ, playing...Never Gonna Give You Up. Xyl0 asks if it's good. Karma responds with *"It's... something. Take that as you will.".* They then go back to theorising about the glass windows before leaving.

Someone's knocking on the door. It's Tan with an absurd amount of icecreams. He says they're from Emira, and he gives two to Xyl0, because one's for Karma but Tan doesn't want to talk to her. He delivers Karma the icecream, and they talk about how Tan's scared of Karma (cool!). She thinks it's cool too, but it proves to be a problem when she needs to ask him things, so Xyl0 offers to ask him things on her behalf, which she accepts. Anyway, mmm mmm yummy icecream yum yum yu-- ...............bluescreen. Karma pokes him and he's back, saying that he "just had the non-human equivalent of a brainfreeze". He then LEAVES!

Motive time. The motive is hallucinations, specifically Xyl0 Windibank. He torments Xyl0 to the point of a mental breakdown, and Karma hears and takes him out the room and into the club to take his mind off of it. Now at the club, they just talk about their hallucinatio-- Yuzuki jumpscare. She's been staring at the wall the entire time. Xyl0 checks up on her before she leaves. The others leave not long after.

##### **Deadly Life**

Whit wasn't here for this so Xyl0 was bluescreened for the trial, hitting his head on the podium and causing him to "bleed" static. Fun! He comes back just before the execution, still a bit delirious from bluescreening. He tries to comfort Seele, but fails, opting to continue in his dorm instead. In his dorm, they both talk about how they wanna go home. Seele hugs him and then this turns into REVERSE COMFORT because Xyl0 is very fucking touch starved so he kinda just...starts crying. lol. it's /pos guys it's okay!!! After that, they both part ways. I'm fckng cryibg guys iCARE THEM

#### **Chapter 3**

##### **Daily Life**

Xyl0 goes back to the weird ro-- why is there an open manhole. Him, Megumi and Emira go down it to find Tan's floor!!! Yaaaay!!! They split up to explore, with Xyl0 finding a pool. Big mistake. He (not waterproof) comes into contact with the water while Anthony laughs at him, being a dickhead before leaving. Xyl0 then goes to look for Seele, fails, and collapses on the floor in the house. Tan then tells him to get up because he just cleaned up. He doesn't get up. Tan continues annoying Xyl0, before coming to the conclusion that it isn't fun because Xyl0's speech keeps glitching and stuff. So he asks how to fix him, but not even Xyl0 knows, so Tan gives up and goes to find Seele. All the while, Xyl0's been talking to Sylvie on the GC.

Tan comes back...with Rebecca. Who *also* doesn't know what to do, so she opts for taking Xyl0 to Seele's room...until Xyl0 tells her and Tan that Sylvie said that Emira should be able to help. Problem is, Tan doesn't like Emira, and Rebecca can't be assed finding her, so she takes him to Emira's room and leaves him there.

The next day, Xyl0's still pretty bad. He goes to talk to Seele for a bit in her room, before leaving and exploring a bit more (also Emira finds out the shit that happened and offers to fix Xyl0!!! So that'll happen!!!). He finds John in the laboratory, and they talk, admittedly in a more positive way considering there wasn't a dead body nearby, unlike their first encounter.

### **Relationships**

#### Megumi Arson

Their first impressions were positive, but it doesn't get much better than that. That and he's fairly certain she's homophobic.

#### **Yuzuki Isamu**

They didn't really get off on a good start, with what happened in Kumi's room, but things got a bit better, and he would've felt quite upset at her death if he wasn't suffering with the aftereffects of bluescreening.

#### **Emira das Geheimnis**

They've always gotten along quite well, so much so that they're joked about sharing a braincell OOC.

#### **John Smith**

They both get along quite well, with them both not being very social. they're doing they best

#### **Karma Andrade**

Xyl0 has positive opinions on her. Idk whether she feels the same lol. They seem to get along well, without Xyl0 occasionally annoying her.

#### **Zenkichi Hirabayashi**

Xyl0 dislikes Zenkichi after what happened in Kumi's room, and didn't care all that much when he died.

#### **Seele Vollerei**

Seele is Xyl0's best friend in Nihilmania, with them comforting eachother and generally getting along very well.

#### **Junichiro Souta**

Despite them talking, Xyl0 has little to no opinion on him. He doesn't hate him, nor does he like him.

#### **Jeanne**

Xyl0 isn't sure how to feel about Jeanne after what she said in the elevator.

#### **Kumi Ayukawa**

Despite most of their conversations being very awkward, Xyl0 genuinely doesn't mind them, thinking they're pretty alright. Socrates on the other hand...

#### **Len Murazami**

Despite them talking, Xyl0 doesn't really have an opinion on him, as they only ever talked in the class trial and on the group chat.

#### **Rebecca Collins**

Xyl0 has below-neutral opinions on Rebecca, and is annoyed by her not taking him to Emira in Chapter 3. He keeps all of this internal though, save for on the group chat with Sylvie.

#### **Sylvester Ashling**

Despite only talking twice, Xyl0 has really positive opinions on Sylvie, as they both have the same opinions on some cast members (\*cough\* tan) and they just overall get along well.

### **Quotes**

#### **Chapter 1**

*"...and i feel like it'd be better off that way. Nnnnot that I like it here, I don't. You know how much I despise it here. But you probably like that too...I'm just saying I'd hate it here even more if I was actually one of you guys...against my will, no less...Y'know, I really, really love how you're caring about "not being mean" when you're the literal host of a murder game. I just think it's a bit...ironic, y'know?" -* Xyl0 to Tan.

*"Hey. That pink-haired person made this, delivered by yours truly. While I'm "here", I'm curious about that...fragment...wall thing. If you wanna drop by my room at some point and talk about it, then that's fine. Or don't, that's fine too. Bone apple teeth or something. ~ Xyl0" - Xyl0's note to Emira.*

*"No, it's just--...It's the only thing people fuckin' talk about. Nothing else. Just...this. And most of the people have been super fuckin' rude about it too. Like, I get it, I'm a fuckin' freak, but it doesn't mean I don't have human emotions too, damn it." -* Xyl0's rant to Souta.

*"Well...erm...I. I've never liked humans. They're mean to me. They always make fun of how I look, why I have no legs, why I sound like a recording compressed to hell and back, et cetera, et cetera. But sometimes it's about...erm. People didn't like how I acted back then. I was-- uhm...they didn't like how passionate I was about the shit I liked...and they just thought I was weird in general. So they made shit hell for me. So, uhhh...I. completely isolated myself from everyone and everything and devoted myself to making this fictional word. And I wrote about it. A lot. Funnily enough, that's how I got my Ultimate. Anyway, it, uh...caused me to build up this intolerance towards people, hence why I'm an asshole. But...ahm. with me not talking to anyone or anything, or having any interaction with the public, suddenly being here with...actual people with actual feelings...it's been very jarring, to say the least, so...this has been really hard."* - Xyl0 to Seele.

#### **Chapter 2**

*"Apparently there's this person that lives in her head called...Vi...Ve...Vio...Violin-- no...Veliona. I think. And sometimes she can...come out, but she has a physical form, if that makes sense? So I think when "Seele" was being all rude and stuff, it was actually Veliona. I think. Maybe."* - Xyl0 to Yuzuki about Seele.

*"But I want my notes app, damn it!!! I haven't been able to write in god knows how long my mind is slowly decaying I am slowly losing my mind and succumbing to insanity I am just a shell of who I once was the lack of a notes app has broken me as a person--...And I think other people would want one." -* Xyl0's rant to Karma.

*"...However. uh. there was something I didn't say. Emira wasn't actually giving them to people. She got Tân to do it. And he got me to give you yours because he's a fuckin' coward and he's scared of you. You scared him. That's so cool." -* Xyl0 to Karma.

*"don't. don't apologise. not your fault...never has been...never will be." -* Xyl0 trying to comfort Seele after the class trial.

*"We will, we will...Were you there when I told y-- nevermind, it was Karma...bleh. I can promise you now...I won't kill anyone. I refuse. I don't want to let those sick sadistic bastards get what they want...and i want us all to survive and...i don't know, be friends and talk and stuff--...maybe I'm just that deprived of social interaction...yyyyeah." -* Xyl0 to Seele.

#### **Chapter 3**

*"it's be-- ause you dIDN'T TELL ME TH-- ER WAS REEEEE-- EEEEAL." -* Xyl0 yelling at Tan because he wasn't told the water was real.

*"Honestly I thought I wa-- gonna go back to locking myself in my apartment for god knows how long. But I don't think I ca-- **bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz**.......mm. I don't think I can, consi-- the fact I have actual. friends now." -* Xyl0 to John.

### **Trivia**

- Xyl0 is canonically transgender and panromantic asexual.

- There is practically no backstory revolving Xyl0's name. He was given Whit's name at the time because he was originally a self-insert, but began to branch off into his own thing. The zero's there because at the time Tamari went by Xylo, plus Xyl0 sounds cooler.

- Xyl0's original design was by Eden. It's barely been tweaked at all since.

- Xyl0's species is actually unknown. He's not a human, but not a robot either.

- Xyl0 paints his nails.

- Xyl0's voiceclaim is Fukase with a static filter over it. This is only a placeholder, Whit may voice him eventually.

- Xyl0's "birthday" is November 7th, 10 days before Whit's birthday.

- Xyl0 canonically hates Rayman because he gets compared to him on a constant.

- Xyl0's going to be a character in a story Whit's writing, isn't that CRAZY?!?!?!?!
