Nikei
Nikei is a PC-only avatar uploaded by VRChat, and was formerly listed as a public avatar.
Origin
Nikei was created by Morph3D (now Tafi) in 2016. The first public showing of Nikei was on November 3, 2016 during a video announcement[1] for now-defunct VR platforms Ready Room, and High Fidelity[2]. The next day, Tafi demonstrated another form of Nikei, when Tafi posted an image of a portable handheld window for VR[3].
Nikei was uploaded to VRChat on November 29, 2016. Tafi has since, made posts including Nikei where they promote newer versions of Nikei and his customizability, giving recognition the "custom avatar" meme from the VRChat community.[4]
