"He is said to be the alternate, childish form of a monster called EIA. He is always watching."
Personality: This is a more casual version of Lani than his more traditional appearances. He is a quiet, observant person who enjoys feeding off of the energy omitted by other people's emotions. Therefore, he is almost always present when invited.
History: He was a demon born when Ares Eclipse felt the pain of heartbreak for the first time, thus essentially making him a "dark" Ares. Traditionally, he is known for following Ares around and tormenting him while he wallowed in sadness, but this version of him (whose origins are unknown) is merely playful.
Habits: Lani behaves a lot like Ares, as they are almost the same person. When he is bored of something, he leaves.
Lifestyle:Lani does not have many official hobbies, as lurking and observing the behaviors of others are his main purposes in life. He generally maintains an appearance akin to a normal teenager, and rarely breaks the act when others are watching.
Voicebank Information
Lani Rakudai is a Rakudailoid who was created in 2016 alongside Ares Eclipse. Due to the fact that he was in active development even after RYATA MAXUM was created, he is also an OBSCURALOID, bearing the code M04. He has had a relatively rocky development, with little decisions made upon his voice type and official media. There was a debate during the creation of Rene Raizel whether or not Lani would actually be the one to take on Rene's voicebanks and scrap Rene's character as a whole, due to the fact that the characters had many things in common. Ultimately, the decision to continue work on Rene led to Lani remaining voiceless for a longer time, and eventually he was postponed alongside other UTAUs who could not be afforded to be worked on.
In 2018 there was a private campaign to find a voice provider for Lani, but it was unsuccessful. Two years later, in the summer of 2020, an experimental "screamo" CV voicebank voiced by Kitty Kurai was loaned to Lani, and is now his current voicebank. It did not have plans to be released due to the unstable condition of the voicebank and is so far Lani's only voice. There is a possibility that he could receive future voicebanks if he finds another voice provider, however.
Lani is remarkable for having a number of forms. His main one, which can sometimes be treated as a separate character, appears on the front page of this website. :)
He has not been used in any remarkable covers (as of 1/7/2021).
