Official Bio
"Hellshio! Murasaki Shion here!"

"A random self-proclaimed child (though she is probably an adult) who appears around the Demonic-Realm Academy. She calls herself a highborne black magician (probably). She can barely say her greeting, “Hellshio”."

Overview
Murasaki Shion born December 8, is a female black magician belonging to Hololive 2nd Generation. She debuted in August 17. , debuted her 3D model in May 12, and in August 01st got her 2nd costume. She received her swimsuit in August 26 and finally got her New Years costume in January 02nd

Shion is well-known for her smug attitude and love for puns. She is commonly seen as an annoying little brat ("kusogaki") because of her behavior and attitude especially towards fellow gen mate Minato Aqua who she also has a friendly rivalry with. The two occasionally hold collaborate streams, most commonly in the game Minecraft, which often end up in pranks and light-hearted sabotage. The two of them along with Nakiri Ayame form the "Manji-Gumi Group".

Shion has a preference for Nintendo Games and is seen to play them quite often. She unquestionably can't handle horror but enjoys playing other games casually. She can't take being mocked but she also loves doing so to anyone she feels like and will try her best to squeeze in any jokes or puns that usually fall flat.

Her representative emote is a crescent moon.

Personality
Murasaki Shion is a very smug-oriented yet caring magician. She is talkative, can take the initiative and is willing to help someone if a situation calls for it. Though often times when she gets comfortable with a person she will perform pranks on or mess with them as part of her play and in return she's usually bullied or mocked in the same way. Shion is one of the talents in Hololive that popularized the annoyed expression "NEEEE!" when things doesn't go their way.

She enjoys collabing with loud-mouthed colleagues who she can talk a lot with and is known to be close to the likes of Minato Aqua, Kiryu Coco as well as Inugami Korone among others. Often times their dynamic and chemistry works well with how Shion behaves, thus making their streams a whole lot more interesting and unpredictable.
