VIPE - Virtual Persona
4 min readMar 19, 2024

Introducing myVIPE

myVIPE is an evolution of VIPE Heroes and their acclaimed Reroll System, released in June 2023. A minting method that offered users the possibility to randomize as many trait combinations as they wanted to obtain their perfect trait loadout before minting their unique avatar.

We know how important it is that your virtual persona accurately represents yourself. Your own style, colors, hair, clothing, etc. After 1.5 million rerolls on VIPE Heroes we’ve noticed this is even more important than we thought.

myVIPE allows even further customization options, with upgrades that will let you easily change outfits and mix and match traits from myVIPE and other partner projects.

myVIPE is a web-based VRM avatar builder that allows users to customize their avatars with the possibility of choosing specific traits and accessories from up to 12 categories. After selecting or rerolling your trait combination you can generate the avatar right away and export it as VRM.

Each myVIPE avatar will be located in a special tab on your profile called myVIPE. Why have a different tab? myVIPEs are off-chain avatars, attached to your VIPE profile, and usable as any other avatar on the platform. In the near future you will be able to mint them as NFTs if you want to.

Customization, Design and Traits

myVIPE is based on VIPE Heroes, sharing the same base body, style and color palettes. All traits are brand new, you won’t find any trait from the VIPE Heroes collection to use on myVIPE.

The main style is based on a general anime aspect, bringing it to the west. With angular, exaggerated and stylized forms. The color palette is very saturated, with bright and vivid colors, neons, phosphors, etc. The body is gender neutral. Users will be able to approach a more generically masculine or feminine look through features and clothing.

These traits are divided as follows:

Head:

  • Skin Color — 6 options
  • Head Shape — 3 options
  • Mouth/Lips — 4 options
  • Ears — 3 options
  • Eye Shape — 12 options
  • Eye Color — 14 options

Body:

  • Hair Style — 6 options
  • Hair Color — 13 options
  • Face Accessory — 40 options
  • Top — 21 options
  • Bottom — 11 options
  • Shoes — 10 options

This first version myVIPE will feature 344 traits, including their respective color variations.

Launch Specifications

The first version of myVIPE will be limited in certain aspects. We are collecting precious feedback from the community to implement in the next updates, while we unlock new features.

  • Any user on the platform will be able to generate up to 2 myVIPE avatars.
  • Any VIPE Heroes holder will be able to generate up to 10 myVIPE avatars.
  • There are not minting fees or associated costs when creating a myVIPE.

We will be adding new traits and accessories over time. We want to include as many traits as possible so everyone can represent themselves through myVIPE avatars.

Optimization and Connectivity of myVIPE Avatars

Our avatars are always optimized so they can be used in as many platforms as possible. To make this possible our avatars never exceed 15,000 tris, 2 materials and 5MB.

myVIPE avatars are off-chain, with the possibility to mint them as NFTs in the future. This doesn’t mean they don’t enjoy VIPE’s connections, as they’re available via VIPE’s API, so you can use them within our integrated platforms as any other on-chain avatar right away.

Unlock Exclusive Style: Collaborations with Leading Brands (Coming Soon)

We are thrilled to be collaborating with amazing brands making the metaverse a cooler place. We are offering to all their holders exclusive traits they can use to build their custom avatars. These are Token-gated and being implemented soon.

Conclusion

Creating your custom VRM avatar and instantly being able to use it across multiple platforms should be accessible and easy-to-use for everyone.

With the advantages that VIPE provides, you can now generate your virtual persona in seconds, at no cost, and take it whenever you want thanks to our connections. Create content for social media, play video-games, do video streaming, and much more with myVIPE.
