Chusei Andeddo (Deddo-Chan)

Face-up artist(s):

S.T Victoria on instagram

Date of acquisition:

28th September 2017

Provenance:

Ebay as a secondhand doll

Reason for choice:

I love this sculpt. I wanted a doll with a less happy face-shape that was able to hold her knees. She was second hand and therefor I did get a good deal on her. But primarily I chose her for her feminine but not happy faceshape

Best Points:

She has a lot of personality. She is a little kicky, which I personally like, it adds to her sass. She holds her legs up like a champ. She's my only bjd so I'm not sure if it's better than most, but she is so easy to coax into a sit. She sits on her knees beautifully and is just very nice to pose. I also love the aesthetic of her body, it's feminine but a little blocky (which fits the character I've shelled her as more than the newer body)

Worst Points:

Her neck tends to either look up or down, she doesn't hold a neutral very well. Her knees really pinch fabric, she's torn holes in a pair of socks I made her straight away. Not a fan of her longer toes and shorter fingers, but it doesn't really bother me. The ribbons on her pillow frayed really easily, not sure if that's because she was second hand or not.

Eyes:

soft lavender

Wig:

Teal and cerulean yarn wig

Favourite colours:

Teal, red. yellow and orange.

Fashion style(s):

Chusei wears a mix of modern clothes, schoolgirl clothes and cutesy clothes, often in colours that totally contrast her blue hair.

Key fashion accessory:

Socks of any kind.

Name story:

Chusei is an adaptation of the kanji for medieval (as she was born in feudal times)
Andeddo is adapted from the kanji for undead. Deddo-chan is her nickname.

Character age:

She hasn't really kept track, over 400 for sure.

Character gender:

Female

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is available for offsite roleplay.

Chusei is a vampire, hense the elf ears. She is sassy, but quiet. She tells you what she's doing wrong with the look on her face. She lived in the mountains of Japan after she was bitten in feudal times. Every year she goes to tokyo to "feed" and picks up some souvenirs and other bits and pieces to keep up with the times. On one of her latest trips she discovers a slice of life manga and becomes obsessed with the life of a Japanese schoolgirl. She is envious of them, she wants that life. Chusei decides she is going to be a schoolgirl and signs up for a co-ed school where she can pretend to be a normal human.
