I see you caught that! LOL

Maeve, and several other characters, got replaced by two original characters that I made specifically for Dicentra Diaries. (Instead of using past ocs)

Chester and Vincent!

The "protector" plot point is now only relevant if you decide to befriend Vincent.

But don't worry, I'm not a fan of super defenseless and helpless M/Cs. So, if you wish, you can be completely immune to Ikimi's "charms."

Just be prepared for the consequences of ignoring Ikimi!

More Chester + Vincent art:

Lets yap about Maeve!

She was originally supposed to be a love interest for Dicentra Diaries (Ikimi's VN, still kinda a filler name) who sort of worked as a protector for the player against Ikimi! I have since scrapped this idea, (Lowkey got replaced) but I may bring her back in a future VN.

Here is some early concept art + her ref sheet I did around September 2025:

I made a mii Yuki and as soon as he walked outside, he fell down. I brought over my oc, Maeve, to help and he immediately fell in love (im sob laughing)

More shenanigans under the cut:

It's completely okay to ask about Isabella!

How old is he?

He is an adult, but his exact age is a mystery. (He doesn't remember)

What's his height?

I actually had a poll for this with some friends and mutuals. It was a tie between 5'7" (170.18cm) or 6ft (182.88cm).

So, I decided 6ft.

Does he have a favorite animal?

Yes! Ravens and crows. (also bugs)

He has a raven named Maggot you can interact with!

This gives me an opportunity to yap about WTMC a little bit!

TLDR; It's a semi-slow burn and he gets more obsessed with you as the days pass.

In WTMC you wake up in a forest with no memories of who you are or how you got there. You eventually meet Isabella, who's super enthusiastic to meet you! He already likes you upon meeting, but it's up to you if you listen to the voices in your head to [REDACTED] or befriend this strange man.

The MC has insane influence over the story. Isabella has short-term memory loss, so you have the opportunity to REALLY manipulate him.

In-game reason:

Malekimi wears the sweater/loose clothing because he's scared his muscles would intimidate you! He has an undershirt that shows all his muscles though hahaha.

Dev answer:

Ikimi's outfit design isn't finalized, as I'm mostly focused on WTMC at the moment. I'm having particular trouble designing Malekimi's outfit, but if you guys want him to show more skin, let me know! (Seriously, I would love feedback.)

Thank you! They're excited to learn more about you, too :)

Personal reasons.
