Who are TEMPUS’ new VTubers in Hololive?
The four new members in HOLOSTARS EN TEMPUS give a bit of a different vibe compared to the original adventurer’s guild set up by Regis Altare and co. However, much like the rag-tag group before it, they all seamlessly mesh with each other.
Gavis Bettelis described as the “full-time fool”, with a full magician’s getup.His official bio on the TEMPUS websiteclaims he “currently performs in the combat arena, but is planning to take his talents global some day.”
Machina X Flayonis the pilot of TEMPUS, although is a bit of a fast-speaking incoherent mess in his lore.
Banzoin Hakka, with dual-wielded spears, is an exorcist from a long line of exorcists, who “fights not only out of a sense of duty, but also because he feels a special kind of excitement.”
The last member,Josuiji Shinri, is a ronin known for his sharp aim. After going into isolation following a war, he took up his craft once again to help TEMPUS on their mission.
