*I update this each time we get new information, so your best bet to get the newest version is to go to the original post*
Based off what is said (and occasionally shown) in chats, events, Devilgrams and the Main Story
All these facts are ones that are said about MC or done by MC when there are no other options eg: there being no option but to blackmail/threaten Mammon into working with them in S1
• They're driven and determined
• They're kind
• They're curious and nosy
• They're blunt
• They're stubborn
• They have no self-preservation
• They're more reserved around people they don't know and become more open and snarky the closer they get
• Once comfortable they have a somewhat "fiery" personality with a cute side

• They have small ears
• They lose weight during each stint in the human world

• They're above the legal drinking age (though this age can change depending on the country)
• They're hard working
• They study a lot but their grades aren't always high and seem to fluctuate a lot

• They can cook well (both human and devildom food)
• They can draw
• They can dance
• Their "paws" animal is a sheep/ram
• They can use magic (types of magic they can use link)
• They're not the best at video games despite playing them a lot
• They can't lie well (but they create a spell that lets them do so)
• They're fairly optimistic
• They like to read
• They seem to be able to tear up on command
• They wear accessories - they constantly wear two rings in the main storyline and get/wear other rings, necklaces and an ear cuff in the Devilgrams
• They have an insignia on the back of their hand, consisting of 7 stars representing the virtues showing that they are a licensed sorcerer

• They like tea
• They can eat Devildom & Celestial Realm food with no problem (despite them apparently being harmful/inedible to humans)
• They have a lot of stamina/energy
• Not good at stitching
• Good/lucky at gambling
• They have nice handwriting
• Asmo's Charm doesn't work on them
• Their soul is shiny (despite all the things they've done that aren't exactly "pure")
• In S1 Lucifer put a spell on the attic to stop humans from seeing its door (which was why he willingly let MC use the TSL album to distract him - hoping that they'd climb the stairs, see nothing up there and stop pressing the issue). Obviously it didn't work on MC***
• They played a part in encouraging the brothers towards their Sins when they were still angels
• They've been with the brothers long before any of them met because their life/soul Candle was always next to the brothers' Candles
• They're technically stronger than Death itself - Punishment for breaking The Reaper's rules was death. Even the brothers weren't supposed to be powerful enough to overturn those punishments. MC was able to unconsciously counter all of them and make them harmless transformation curses instead
• The LIs aren't the only ones romantically/sexually attracted to MC. A large number of other citizens in the Devildom also want to sleep with them (link to 5 instances)
• They modelled in a photoshoot with Mammon
• They occasionally wear suits
• They are not easily phased by things and tend to remain calm even in high stakes situations
• They are highly adaptable to new situations
• They don't lose their temper often but they have a pretty mean glare
• They can imitate Lucifer's voice when he's mad well enough to fool both Mammon & Beel
Edit:
• They also seem to really like pudding
• They're warm
• They're extremely good at card games
• They're bad at math
• They've got a talent at escape rooms so they're naturally good at problem solving
• They're a "big fan of chimera pork"
• They're brave
• They like caramel in their coffee
• Their neutral face/the way they look when they're thinking makes them look like nothing's going on upstairs
• Despite always helping everyone else they seem to keep their own problems to themself, either unconsciously or on purpose
• They have leadership/supervision skills
• Their ring finger is longer than their index finger
• They pick up new skills easily
• They pile up too much food on their plate, in one go, at buffets
• They're free spirited
• They seem to fluctuate between being oblivious about in your face things to sharp minded about more obscure things
• Despite seemingly always going along with Mammon's plans they argue with him a lot too
• They often have long pointless/meaningless conversations with Mammon
• They have good aim
• Good at quick draw shootouts/standoffs
• Good at horseback riding/racing
• On the rare occasion that they suspect the one they like romantically is interested in someone else they actually get quite jealous and possessive
• They're not scared of horror
• According to Beel, Levi & Belphie they favour Mammon and have a tendency to seek him out more, go whenever he calls & tell him everything. A couple memory devilgrams (the karaoke one where the most romantic options for Belphie & Solomon were how you could monetize their singing vs the most romantic option for Mammon was that you could fall in love with his singing) & events (the circus one where MC instantly remembers Mammon when they see him before he even says a word to them vs having to speak & interect with the others to remember them) also show this
• They go along with quite a lot of Mammon's schemes and he calls them his "partner in crime" and says "they're very close"
• S1 established that they frequently share their room with Mammon (to the point that he leaves things like his toothbrush, charger etc in their room) & in S4 Mammon confirms this is still an ongoing thing & it's now practically their shared room
• They like TSL and know some of the lines by heart
• Mammon's their tour guide/babysitter in almost very event AU that needs one
• They're protective of the brothers (even unconsciously so as seen in the Reaper lessons) willing to give up their life essence for them (with Beel in s2), willing to die for them (with Lucifer in s2), willing to hurt/possibly kill humans for them (with Belphie in s3)
• Gisella said you never forget the way you die/the pain of dying (?) just a few lessons before MC dies. It's never explicitly stated in canon but this heavily implies that MC still remembers (feels?) it all with clarity
• They sometimes make quick decisions without considering the consequences
• They're significantly taller than Luke (tall enough to be able to clean the top of the windows at RAD which Luke can't) but shorter/smaller than Beel (as Mammon who can't carry Beel is able to lift them off the floor and spin them)
• They've never been scared of Mammon even when he's given them reason to be (in s1 before they were friends and he talked about eating them, in the paws event when he got tiger instincts, in his vampire devilgram when he was actively trying not to drink their blood and they were encouraging him to do so despite his warnings that he may kill them)
• They're dependable
• They can be quiet/sneaky/stealthy enough to steal a key from a pirate's belt in one swipe while Beel causes a distraction
• They're good at pulling funny faces (vs Satan or Diavolo whose faces don't change at all when they try)
• Belphie says they're a positive person
• Satan says they have wit
• They had a page on Devilpedia which Diavolo took down to protect their privacy/in case more personal stuff got added later on despite it currently containing only the most basic of information

• They play Devil Crossing and either play Phantom Lyric or know about it
• They can apply/paint designs on (Asmo's) nails
• Good at the crane game in the arcade
• They have an impeccable taste in fashion
• They go get massages often enough with asmo that the two of them have a regular spot
• They enjoyed eating "headless dragon"
• Lucifer says they have bad reflexes but then again it's Lucifer saying it about dodging a magical attack by Satan & Belphie in their demon forms so I'm not sure whether you can trust that assessment
• Their acting feels natural
• They have "boundless confidence"
• Has both ears pierced
• Is bad at playing musical instruments - they can apparently play the saxophone really well😭
• 13 calls them a "die-hard try-hard"
• Can waltz - a new enough skill that Diavolo was able to recognise that they improved
• Good organisational skills
• They conduct themself with the ideal demeanor that fits the situation/a proper demeanor in formal situations
• Charming
• Athletic
• Dazzling smile
• "Adorable" according to Belphie
• Quick learner
• Good at hiking/mountain climbing
• Good at spotting/identifying rare species of plants out in the wild
• "Indomitable" according to Mammon
• Persuasive
• Knows exactly how to best annoy Lucifer
• "Pretty" according to Levi
• "Capable" according to Lucifer
• Looks so good dressed as a Dame that it renders both Mephisto & Raphael speechless despite neither of them necessarily liking MC (Mephisto doesn't even like them as a person yet)
• They like manga & anime. Their favourite manga is "Goodbye to Easy Life as the Reincarnated 3rd Prince and Hello to Throne"
• Cheery
• Outgoing
• Good at racing a water scooter
• They can come across as aloof sometimes
• High self esteem
• Hair is in great condition
• Knows how to play pool
• They like cats
• Looks on the positive side of things (to an extent)
• They know at least one ancient/dead human language
• They don't know any ancient/dead demon languages but the way it's said implies they know the current language used in the Devildom
• They're excellent at preparing tea
• Sometimes they get into the mood to read things (manga in this case) that makes them cry their eyes out
• I'm pretty sure their "sin" is gluttony (here's a compiled list) but either way they really like eating food
• They've been snorkeling, so they can swim well too
• They won the special prize in a street dance competition with Mammon, for being the most in sync team
• They have a good idea on what's going on in all the games and manga Levi follows
• Levi describes them as "someone who is always on the go"
• General MC's default choice is to pick the brothers/their family over all else, including humanity
• They play dirty in Devil Kart
• They're strong enough to kick down Levi's locked door, to carry Asmo and run, to hold on to Simeon and resist being pulled into a "blackhole" which already sucked up some of the brothers, to hold on to Barbatos and resist being pulled into an even stronger blackhole
• They're "stronger than they look" and are able to carry Lucifer on their shoulders
• Despite being a good actor they're a bad liar
• Asmo calls them a "wolf in sheep's clothing" implying they look non-threatening despite how dangerous they really are
• Simeon won them a pair of fluffy sheep slippers in a crane game
• According to Simeon they're a "fast decision maker"
• Lucifer says they have a "reckless streak"
• Extremely good at staying on the mechanical bull - won it with ease
• They're good at applying makeup
• When cooking food the way they season it is more similar to a human-world style than a devildom one
• They have a terrarium
• They are interested in limited time items
• After years of living in and out of the Devildom they have a "very broad range of knowledge" about the Devildom, are able to always make new observations when studying Devildom subjects and are able to explain things about the Devildom to others in a way that's easy to understand
• Mephisto says they always seem to be in a hurry
• Mephisto says they're a "master of surprising others"
• Thirteen says MC has always liked doing favours for others, and this is the reason she must keep an eye on them
• They can ice skate
• They are good at basketball
• When MC says that it's scary how good Lucifer is at everything Diavolo says that MC is "no less talented"
• Diavolo says MC has "good decision-making skills"
• Diavolo says MC always keeps a level head
• They're good at photography
• Thirteen says "they have good taste" (though she doesn't specify it, within the context she's talking about makeup)
• They at least sometimes/occassionally wear lipstick (because Thirteen buys them a special lipstick)
• Solomon says to use magic you need to have a good imagination
• Solomon says to use magic you should be able to draw straight lines (and perfect circles?) freehand
• Lucifer says they are decisive
• Mammon says "chunky, edgy" accessories will suit them - the way he says it implies that these are not something they've worn before/they usually wear
• They can make suprisingly realistic cat sounds
• They can conjure/create clothes with magic
*** I compiled screenshots of this part and other parts from all 4 seasons that heavily point towards MC not being human:
• They provide a sense of security for the others, specially when things are difficult
• Lucifer says they have a thrill-seeking personality
• Lucifer implies they frequently rough house with his younger brothers
• Lucifer implies that they spend enough time with Mammon taking part in his schemes that people chase after them too
To add to this (correct me if it has already been listed or if I'm wrong)
(Edit: I realized that op has specified that the facts are when we are not given a choice/other characters have said about us whoops. But I personally consider it somewhat canon if we are repeatedly given the choice)
MC is canonically kind of cute (physically) and are hard to dislike
MC can give massages and they are good at giving massages/the brothers enjoy the massages (ex. Belphie and Mammon)
In a daily chat, MC is asked whether or not they have a pet. They can answer they have a cat, a dog, or Mammon. This implies that MC has a pet animal or views Mammon as their pet.
To add to that, MC in the main storyline has been given the dialogue option of making Mammon woof like a dog and has also given commands to Mammon that include "sit, boy!" (the fact that Mammon wears collars in numerous outfits doesn't help lol)
Giving commands that sound like an owner talking to their dog isn't mutually exclusive to Mammon as they are also given the choice to order all the brothers around like their dogs in the main storyline. This happens in lesson 26 when all the brothers get into a food fight and MC has to use their pacts to stop them.
MC has scolded Beel before. This happens after Beel starts a food fight
MC is one of the only characters in the House of Lamentation to have their own washroom and not use the communal one. The other two characters to have their own washroom are Asmo and Lucifer.
When MC is up in the human world in season 2, they are seen walking around on a sidewalk in the city. This implies that MC lives in the city or lives close enough to one to be walking around.
MC likes to tease as they are given several options to tease other characters throughout the main storyline, devilgrams, events, and daily chats
MC is associated with the colour lavender/light shades of purple as the sheep icon that represents is lavender and the pillows in MC's room are lavender/several light shades of purple
MC is good at card games as we see them destroy Belphie at them in the main storyline
MC does not have a canon gender as they are referred to they/them pronouns. Even their default name, Yuki, is gender neutral. This also means that all the brothers/dateables have no specified sexuality as they all like MC regardless of gender.
MC has a positive relationship with all the brothers, dateables, and side characters with the exception of Mephistopheles
In earlier drafts of the game, MC had a mother who was a painter and Diavolo owned one of her paintings. We can assume MC canonically has a mother and was most likely produced by meiosis. (Although that may be a stretch)
MC cares about saving others and will not choose to save one person when they are multiple people to save. They will instead to choose to save everyone. This occurs in the main storyline where Lucifer gives them the choice to either save Luke or Beel. The only dialogue choice MC is given is to save them both

I fear if I ever got reincarnated, I would not be the nonchalant, op, protagonist who's a genius at anything they do, and come off as uncaring yet still have a heart of gold with strict morals.
I would be the overdramatic, nosey, surviving by pure luck and spite, canon fodder yet somehow girlbossing my way through central characters, appear to be very emotionally invested but laughing off anything serious, and have morals that flip flap depending on my mood.
The narrative truly hates me but can't get rid of me like a tape worm in your digestive system (Derogatory towards the narrative, loving praise towards me)
Rip Shen Yuan, you would've hated the fact that I have learned more about cultivation by svsss and svsss fanfics rather than actual cultivation novels and PIDW
And more importantly, rip Liu Mingyan because she would've agreed with me
I know that the fandom likes to the joke that Shen Jiu hates men and is noted to have feminine traits, but I think his feminine traits go deeper than just him having those traits. Have you ever noticed that no woman in PIDW has ever been truly punished by Bingge? Sure, he might get angry with them, but he doesn't ever actually harm them/intend to punish them because Bingge finds comfort in women, like how Shen Jiu does. Although in different ways (Bingge uses them for sex and for love, but Shen Jiu just feels more comfortable within the presence of a woman.)
Yet, Bingge is the most gruesome towards Shen Jiu, aka the only person who has feminine traits to ever be harshly punished/tortured by Bingge in PIDW. While Shen Jiu did do horrible things to Bingge, I feel as if he wasn't the only one who did extremely horrible things against him. For example, the people who beat Bingge when he was a child for trying to take some food for his sick mother before she died. Yet, there is no explicit punishment for those people, aka people who may or may not have indirectly killed Bingge's adoptive mother. Which is weird because this is the type of slight that Bingge would never let slide, yet he does. Even Qin Wanyue takes advantage of Bingge because she coerces him into having sex with her.
There's been a lot of people who have definitely wronged him, but the focus of revenge is put so much on Shen Jiu. And I think I know why; it's because all the women in PIDW are supposed to love Bingge/ be a comforting towards him. They're supposed to be submissive, find him attractive, and unconditionally support them no matter their background. Human, demon, cultivator, etc. It's one of the universal laws of PIDW. But Shen Jiu is not submissive, caring, or loving towards the protagonist despite some of the traits he shares with women. (The distrust of men, his reliance on his intelligence and focuses less on brute strength, his damaged spiritual veins, him waiting for Yue Qi to come back aka yearning, him being able to be empathetic towards courtesans without looking at them in lust, the way he dresses, his fans, etc.) All these traits sound like the traits one of Bingge's harem members.
You could imagine it too; an intelligent and powerful cultivator cold towards the protagonist because of their distrust of men, but uh oh, their poor spiritual veins are damaged and now need to dual cultivate with a heavenly demon. Shen Jiu is the perfect mold for a female character like this. But, he lacks the most important trait, he doesn't love the protagonist. Women in PIDW are allowed to be a little mean towards Bingge, but they never hate him. Shen Jiu does hate him though, he'll never love him.
So, the PIDW universe punishes this error in the universe because women are supposed to love Bingge, including Shen Jiu because of his characteristics he may share with love interests. Shen Jiu defies this rule so he gets punished the harshest. Women bring comfort to Bingge but Shen Jiu would rather die than even give Luo Binghe a glimpse of hope. And that's why Shen Jiu gets the worst punishment. Not because he was a horrible person to Bingge, no, it was because he broke the rules of the universe and had to be punished.

Oh how I love cute dress up games (If we get to the infinity nikki version of the North Kingdom which is a nation that uses warfare, we really might get the gun we wanted)
I'm gonna apply cliche kdrama tropes to svsss characters because i can
Mobei-Jun and Shang Qinghua: Overbearing rich handsome ceo lead slowly falls for his secretary but he doesn't know how to deal with his feelings so he keeps overworking his secretary, but he'll take them on expensive dates and buy them gifts. Meanwhile secretary is under the impression that their boss hates them and eventually sends a resignation letter to the shock of ceo male lead. This leads to a misunderstanding arc but dw they still fuck and get married in the end so all is good (basically a mix of 'What's wrong with secretary Kim?' and 'Business Proposal') Also there is usually a scene where the rich male lead and the secretary/subordinate eat cheap food together. Like instant noodles or something (pulled noodles anyone?)
Liu Qingge: Second male lead who the audience is all rooting for but the writers hate him so he doesn't get the girl despite being a green flag. A fan fav, but he still loses in the end to the first male lead to all of his fans' chagrin. His fans are in the trenches for him.
Shen Jiu and Yue Qingyan: Childhood friends/sweethearts but get seperated and meet back up as adults. The reunion isn't sweet because misunderstandings and so Shen Jiu believes Yue Qingyan purposely moved away without telling him but Yue Qingyan claims Shen Jiu has it all wrong but plot is forcing him to not spill the beans. Slowburn, second chance romance that has a lot of angst and misunderstadings which has fans questioning if they are truly meant for each other or nah
Binghe and Shen Qingqiu/Yuan: Super Handsome friend of female lead that gets all the girls. The female lead is the closest to the male lead so many girls use them to get closer to male lead. Of course, SY accepts because it's the least he can do for his best friend, but for some reason, Binghe likes none of them. Through many misunderstandings, Binghe eventually confesses to Shen Yuan and they live happily ever after in their freak4freak relationship. Slowburn to the max with several kiss scenes interrupted.
Liu Mingyan: The main girl character in a BL. At first, she's believed to be a rival for the main couple, but is later revealed to be a fujoshi and ships the main couple together. (Cliche based off of the one fujoshi in the BL 'Blood Link') She will discuss who is the top and bottom in public with absolutely no shame (Her character stays the same lowkey even if she was a cliche)
Mu Qingfang: He's the side character that is actually sensible. If there is some cringey/cliche kdrama scene happening in front of him, he will call out the bullshit. If the male lead is being a bitch, he'll slap some sense into him. If some character is being weird asf, he will be the first to question it. Remember, if all the main characters are dealing with nonsensical problems that only the male and female lead could have in a kdrama, he's the one dealing with taxes because he actually has responsibilities around here people!
Luo Bingge: Infuriating male lead in isekais. If the villainess suddenly changes then he thinks it's because they want his attention. Who wouldn't??? But just because he's their fiance, doesn't mean they're gonna get it. After all, he has his own lover. He doesn't want the villainess. But... if the villainess wants to break things off with him, then he won't let them go so easily now. Wait, what do you mean they already found another man? What about him??? He's the one they want...right? Suddenly he finds himself wanting the villainess, not his own lover.

You know how sometimes a fandom will look at a canon plain/unattractive character and will call them goodlooking and only refer to them as goodlooking? I believe that Shang Qinghua is the complete opposite of this and the fandom has collectively agreed that he is average looking despite him being canonically a handsome guy with a sleazy aura. Like guys, he is canonically handsome stop doing him dirty like this lmao
I'm like 99% sure that if Liu Qingge wasn't her brother, Liu Mingyan would write a LiuShen book. She would be a multishipper, if we also include Yue Qingyuan, Zhuzhi-lang, Gongyi Xiao, Shang Qinghua, etc. And all her books would be banned on Cang Qiong mountain lol yet everyone would read them, Poor Shen Qingqiu and his thin face lmao
Although I do fear what Binghe would think if she wrote any other ship besides Bingqiu
SVSSS AU where everything is pretty much the same with the exception that SY!SQQ knows how to do the Black Widown Move ™️
(Aka a move from Vovinam, a vietnamese martial art)
This would simply make his harem's horniness for him increase in 50% due to how skilled you must be to pull this off AND because some of them dream on sparring/fighting SQQ just so he can willingly put his tights near their faces.

there is too much sword fighting in xianxia novels. i propose a main character who is completely average at swordplay but is skilled in hand to hand fighting. so they decide to use this as a trump card, and not really display their abilities.
bonus points if this scene is included:
opposition, pointing their sword at MC's throat : It's over. you have lost your sword, you are kneeling at my feet. i have won-
MC: wow your knees look really breakable down here
I love this idea because imagine a reincarnated protagonist that doesn't carry around a sword so people think they're weak asf and an easy target. When in reality, they have learned numerous martial arts (taekwondo, muay thai, judo, karate, jiu-jitsu, kung fu, etc.) and fucking goes to town with cultivators because they have yet to know the power of "these fists are rated e for everyone" batshit cultivator that is the protagonist. And it also happens that muscle memory is ingrained into their body so it's very apparent they have experience and now everyone is panicking about this 'rogue and savage' cultivator that does not believe in honour.
To add to this amazing idea, what if said protagonist does not hesistate to fight dirty. I'm talking beating the shit out of people with random objects, pulling hair, biting, scratching, strangles people, using unconvential weapons/uses weapons in an unconventional way. Like imagine if their sword breaks and their opponent thinks that victory is theirs. But then our lovely mc uses the broken piece and somehow manages to sharpen each side and fucking stabs their opponent.
Or if the protagonist really hates using swords but they're not opposed to using other weapons such as bows and polearms. Like can you imagine a showdown between the mc and a powerful undefeated cultivator, and the cultivator is waiting for mc to show up and they get shot with an arrow and they're like
Cultivator: "COME OUT AND FACE ME LIKE AN HONOURABLE CULTIVATOR SHOULD"
Main 'i do not give a shit about using swords or having honour' protagonist: fuck no, i'm killing you with my bow and arrow
And when mc gets closer, they pull out a polearm which gives them an advantage over a sword because of the longer reach
If mc runs out of arrows, they just beat the hell out them with the bow and smacks the life out of them. And finally, out of complete disrespect, bitchslaps them into the abyss; maybe uses their fists to spice up the fight.
And when all is done, people are speaking about this mad dog, insane, demonic cultivator who disregards honour and people think their some buff, rude, demon/demonic cultivator. Then it cuts to a nice, polite, and respectful looking person who just is realistic about fights and could not give less of a shit about fighting with honour because honour does not guarantee you your life. Also they hate when people yap during fights because that is the one thing you don't do because whoopsy daisy, I dislocated your jaw.
Anyways thank you @thealexanderfiles for the genius idea that we all needed to hear about
Shang Qinghua is actually a girlboss but y'all just refuse to accept the truth. Just think about it, he wrote 50 volumes of shitty porn with a lot of plot holes, not even remembering any side characters, and his writing was extremely flawed. Yet bitches still paid for that shit; merch was sold, PIDW was one of the most popular novels, and his bills were paid. If that's not the most Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss shit you've ever seen, then I don't know what is.
