Ameriko

"My name is Ameriko, as in America, but with a ko! 'What even is an Ameriko?' Good question!"

Ameriko is one of two moderators for Lord Viator's streams and Discord server. She is a very welcoming person and is heavily involved in the fandom. She is known as the Yacht's historical archivalist because of her habit of collecting screenshots and recording highlights from the streams and fandom Discord. Ameriko always wants to give others a great first impression and works hard to make people happy. She is often teased and 'bullied' in the fandom, but all in good fun.

Ameriko first found Lord Viator's Twitch channel in late February 2020 while scrolling through the Jackbox Party Pack category on Twitch. Finding the chill environment of the streams alluring, having the time to join, and enjoying the interactive avatar layout Lord had in his streams, Ameriko decided to stay. She became a regular in late March as she got to know the other regular viewers and joined the Discord. Some of these people at the time were Roz, Jojo, Silent, and Plague. Ameriko officially became a moderator on April 16th. Lord, wanting to have a back-up moderator in the absence of Roz, appointed Ameriko because of her dedication to the streams after finding that her watching hours came second to Roz's.

Appearance
Ameriko has long straight hair that reaches down to her waist along with matching brown eyes. In her regular outfit, she wears a white short-sleeved collared shirt with a big baby-pink ribbon and a matching pleated dotted skirt, plum knee-high socks, and brown heel shoes. She also possesses a choker and galactic purple hairbow.

In her maid outfit, she wears a cyan dress with a white apron, black over-the-knee socks with white ruffles, a choker, and a black bow headband with mary-jane shoes and sometimes matching gloves.

She is portrayed with lighter brown hair sometimes due to her using the wrong color once while drawing on paper (as the right shade was unavailable), but she ended up liking the light brown shade better.

When drawn by Roz, she often has long black hair on the sides in the shape of noodles.

Personality
Ameriko is described as a shy, 'screamy,' tsundere coward. A tsundere is a Japanese term for either a character that is initially cold before gradually showing their soft, sweet side or a character that puts up a combative façade against people they secretly admire, but eventually show their soft side to them. In Ameriko's case, she is one who is normally is pleasant until the mention of romance/something she secretly likes, which then riles her up (usually at the hands of Roz), making her flustered and almost unable to defend herself.

She has the habit of screaming and shouting a lot, especially when backed into a corner. Thrice she has been broken by Roz, leaving her in a state where she either only mutters one-word responses such as "Yeah," "Ah," and "Oh," or says nothing at all. This state has been described by JoJo as 'almost catatonic.' Even singing about bullying won't bring her back in such a state. It is currently not known how to revert Ameriko back, but sleeping has been observed to help her. It seems that Ameriko remains in this 'catatonic' state for the rest of the day.

Modern, Runarin, and Roz constantly mock Ameriko for being a coward. This is because she does things like deafening in VC, pinging Lord Viator for help when bullied, and outright refusing to speak in VC unless someone else (particularly Roz) speaks first. Despite this, she is adamant that she is not a coward and refuses the label.

Ameriko has also been self-described as a 'people-pleaser,' in that she'll do whatever people want to make them happy. This is what she loves the most and is proud of it. People often joke about telling her to do something, but they are surprised when she delivers. One time she wrote a fanfiction of her and Steely Dan just so people would stop butchering his name. Another time, while tired after waking up early, she rewrote copypastas at the request of Plague. As a result, they were filled with typos, entertaining the others. But she doesn't mind writing, as she has a passion for making stories.

It is important to note that Ameriko does not do things JUST to please others, because she personally enjoys doing it as well.

One thing that Ameriko enjoys is archiving things, memorizing information such as dates and time zones, and screenshotting Discord and Twitch chats. It is a habit for her, as she randomly feels the need to do so. As of November 2020 she has saved over 5,000 screenshots of Lord Viator's chats, earning her the reputation of being the historian.

Ship
On July 28th, during a round of Push the Button, a player entered the game with the name "Ameriko x SD." SD is a reference to fictional character Steely Dan, who originates from the anime JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Ameriko had often mentioned her favoritism for this character in past streams and in the Discord. This faux relationship between Ameriko and an anime character would gain traction in the next stream when the same alias joined in a game of Survive the Internet. Since then, the relationship stuck and Ameriko became the teased friend in the fandom, especially for her adoration for the fictional character. She is also shipped with Tom Cruise.
