[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder:A-E]]
* TheAce: The most musically talented out of EN, being an accomplished rapper and singer, playing a multitude of instruments, as well as constantly composing her own original songs. She's also a talented artist, having drawn her senpais like [[https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1385225027549757444 Marine]].
* TheAlcoholic:
** In almost every stream, she pops open a bottle of the absolute cheapest wine she can get from the convenience store and chugs it straight from the bottle. She keeps a wine glass around for decoration but doesn't use it. According to her the stuff tastes awful, but she's not letting that stop her.
** In her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYi_E5JLx4c first Japanese only stream]], she took a sip of 95% Spirytus for every English word she let slip and every answer she got wrong on her Japanese test. By the end of the stream, she took at least ''twenty'' sips. She was supposed to have another stream much later in the day, but ended up having to cancel it due to being too intoxicated.
** Eventually she addressed this, as according to her a few friends had commented on her early streams making her look like she had a serious drinking problem when in reality she doesn't drink that heavily often, commenting that it was mostly due to nerves. In response, she cut down on how often she drinks alcohol on-stream and now frequently goes out of her way to point out that she's drinking water so viewers don't worry about her. While she isn't as heavy of a drinker as she was originally, she will openly admit to drinking beer during collab streams and her free talk streams are often labeled as wine parties.
* AintTooProudToBeg: A very comedic example. She resorts to having a dedicated stream to begging Atlus permission to stream ''VideoGame/Persona3'' (Specifically the FES version). She does this for nearly an hour and a half.
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Calli has a bit of a reputation for being a ChickMagnet among her fellow streamers, usually as a result of her painting the outward image of herself as a hip "bad boy" reaper, both in her streams and her music. Notably, several Hololive JP talent [[invoked]][[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff have expressed their attraction to her]]. Polka particularly loves her for her foul-mouthed demeanor, saying she wants to marry a woman like Calli, whereas Suisei found herself infatuated with her due to her cool attitude and good looks, on top of reciting lyrics from her music. Subaru also mentioned taking a liking to Calli, which caused an influx of angry chats from [[ClingyJealousGirl Kiara]], who would then go on an angry tirade in their next collab about how betrayed she felt (jokingly, of course).
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents:
** Her "reaper mother" has told her that they used her music in a spin class and Calliope has asked her not to tell them that she was the person who wrote it. She has also met Kiara and is very fond of her and the relationship she has with Calliope, frequently asking her daughter how Kiara is doing and what she's up to.
** She revealed during a [[https://youtu.be/r3Ottnh8T0Q?t=1h51m10s post stream Superchat readout]] that "papa Reaper", her father, collects what can only be assumed to be used secondhand bootleg anime figures, and will regularly send her pictures of whatever new figure he has found for his collection.
* ApologizesALot: Is very self-conscious about her image to the point of never wanting to come off as abrasive, so she almost always apologizes whenever she makes a joke that can be taken in even a slightly offensive way.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: For as big of a {{tsundere}} as she is towards Kiara, there's no shortage of moments that show that she greatly appreciates and values their friendship, such as going on a spa trip and an expensive hotel trip with her. She's also not above retweeting fanart shipping her with Kiara, and doesn't hesitate to defend Kiara ''or'' their relationship when either is called into question. Best displayed during the time leading up to Kiara's departure from Japan, especially the karaoke stream they had together, where Calli was clearly just as sad as Kiara was, and when Kiara broke down crying, Calli hugged her and tried her best to comfort her, telling her that they'll be together again and have fun together again in the future.
-->'''Calli:''' ''[[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ND7LUoN4KHE reading a superchat]]]'' "This is my first akasupa and I'm giving it after watching a clip of your early Kiara collabs, I'm glad you're friends now." ''[chuckles]'' What do you mean?! I love Kiara!
* BadassTeacher:
** She went into more detail on her day job after having a rough day, which caused her to act extremely goofy on stream to blow off stress. According to her, she teaches very young reapers how to swing their scythes. This is best seen during her English teaching stream, where she is shown being very effective at teaching.
** After her chat had spammed an emote to her ire, she removed it and issued a punishment very smiliar to that a teacher would give to a misbehaving student: the fanbase as a whole would have to write a 30 page essay in Times New Roman 12 point single space font on why they are being punished and why they deserve to have the emote back.
* BareYourMidriff: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9H07Z-ZOOM Her second outfit debut]] has her reveal an outfit that exposes her bellybutton.
* BeneathTheMask: She tries to present herself as a cute and graceful reaper-in-training before literally saying [[PrecisionFStrike fuck it]] during her first rap and revealing what she calls her real self. While she still tries to maintain her image, it tends to falter when she gets annoyed.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Despite her friendly demeanor most of the time, she can and will demonstrate why she is a reaper when incredibly focused/tilted if her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' playthrough is anything to go by.
* BilingualBonus: Her music often features a mix of English and Japanese lyrics. In particular is her debut hit "Excuse My Rudeness But Could You Please RIP" which uses the word "DIE" in place of the Japanese word "dai", such as in "Sugoi DIE-suki!" [[labelnote:Translation]]"I really love you!"[[/labelnote]] and "Donmai DIE-joubu!" [[labelnote:Translation]]"Don't worry, it's fine"[[/labelnote]]. In addition, she also raps, "You reap what you fucking SEISO" [[labelnote:Explanation]]"Seiso" literally means "clean" and "tidy", and is a descriptor for Japanese idol singers who are considered "pure" and "wholesome". Here, Calli is using "Seiso" in place of "sow".[[/labelnote]]
* BirdsOfAFeather: Calli and Suisei greatly admire each other for their respective singing prowess, with Calli mentioning on ''WebVideo/TrashTaste'' that Suisei is one of her two favourite senpai (the other being [=AZKi=]), and Suisei affectionately replying to Calli's chat encouragements with "I love you!". Their original songs also sometimes touch upon the same subject, with "GHOST" and "Red" both expressing the feeling of making a lasting impression in the [=VTuber=] scene.
* BrownNote: Invoked several times.
** She owns a recorder and refers to it as Hell's own instrument, showcasing exactly what she means by playing it deliberately badly. [[SpringtimeForHitler It ended up having the opposite effect from what was intended]], and because her fans loved it she ended up having to play it for the entirety of a multi-hour superchat reading stream because she promised a note for every donation. She also sarcastically suggested learning streams for it, which [[ColbertBump caused recorders to]] ''[[ColbertBump sell out]]'' [[ColbertBump on Amazon Japan]].
** For the purposes of track mixing, she had also ordered a harmonica and several kazoos, all of which she enthusiastically plays terribly, exclaiming how much she hates it before continuing to play. At the time of writing, she is also waiting for a slide whistle and an Aztec death whistle.
** She has mentioned wanting to sample [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calliope_(music) an actual calliope]] in order to produce "demented circuscore" music.
* ButtMonkey: If Gura isn't the one getting this trope, then it's certainly Calli. Just like Gura, she also tends to be a frequent victim of tease and misfortune mainly because of her poor gaming skills. Her streams also frequently have technical issues, and as mentioned in CringeComedy below, her main source of humor tends to be her being put in embarassing situations much to her dismay.
* CallBack:
** During the ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' collab between the 5th Gen and EN members, Botan says "Excuse me, but did the reaper just RIP?" after noticing that Calli had been killed, referencing Calli's debut track. Polka would also recite the name of the song whenever she had the opportunity to kill Calli.
** Her "date" with viewers gets rudely interrupted by ''ComicBook/GhostRider'' towards the end.
** In Calli's new song, "Off With Their Heads", a variation of the hook of "Dead Beats" is brought back. She does it again in "The Grim Reaper Is A Live Streamer", cementing it as something of a motif for Mori.
** Whenever an instance occurs where Mori has to say, "it's like that", she almost immediately quotes the beginning of "Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP?"'s chorus, as that particular line is the first verse's segue to it.
* CaptainErsatz: Despite its liberal use, Calli had a bit of a scare when her audience told her that [[DisneyOwnsThisTrope Ghost Rider belongs to the House of Mouse]]. She then tried to play it off by saying the image she used of him in a previous stream was her own original character, and her chat suggested names such as Ghoul Driver or Gou Strider.
* CatchPhrase: She has so many that she decided to make a [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkYpz40UYAApi-L?format=jpg&name=large BINGO card]] out of them.
* CharacterDevelopment: Off-stream, Calli and Kiara are great friends. On-stream, however, their antics tell a slightly different story. At the start, Calli was very much a Harsh-type {{Tsundere}} towards Kiara. Most evident in their first duo ''Minecraft'' collab where Kiara's bombardment advances would constantly draw out Calli's harsher side. Fast-forward two months later, Calli is now more of a ''Sweet''-type tsundere, singing more praises of Kiara and treating her much more kindly on-stream (though the sexual advances and intimate suggestions still make Calli cringe).
* CigarChomper: She mentions that she smokes on very select occasions and, when she does, it's with cigars. It's something she picked up from Papa Reaper.
* ClosetGeek: Or at least as much as one can be in an idol agency full of anime girls who play videogames on the regular; this [[LadySwearsaLot foul-mouthed]], [[TheDissTrack fire-spitting]] reaper turns out to be quite a fan of Tabletop RPG's. Specifically with an attachment to [[TabletopGame/OldWorldOfDarkness World of Darkness]].
* CloudCuckooLander: Downplayed. As she's gotten more comfortable with streaming as well as just happier in general, she's started opening up more to her audience as well as letting her natural personality out more, and it turns out that she is ''very'' strange in terms of her sense of humor and tastes. It's frequently joked about that she's actually always some level of drunk due to how loopy she can act, even on an average day that is relatively stress-free.
* TheComicallySerious: She's the most straight-laced of her group, taking on the role of a straight man when in group streams.
* ContraltoOfDanger: She has a deep voice, especially when she raps.
* CoolBigSis: Gives off this vibe to Gura, most evident in their ''Minecraft'' collabs, happily explaining stuff like her audio recording process to her.
* CowardlyLion: Despite liking horror aesthetic in games (her favorite series is ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' and one of her favorite games is ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'') she does not do well when playing actual horror games such as ''VideoGame/{{Phasmophobia}}''. She still tries to put on a brave face throughout such experiences and goes through with them but it is clear that the fear starts getting to her rather quickly. [[https://youtu.be/WgX_zLgzYSc?t=127 She will try to deny it, but once something really scares her]], her screams can rival [[CuteButCacophonic Gura's]].
* CringeComedy: Her main source of humor revolves around how much she can (intentionally or otherwise) embarrass herself, such as by saying things in a very stilted manner while cursing at herself under her breath for how off-putting she feels that her audience would find her. For example, her second Japanese learning stream included a segment of attempting Duolingo for her less fluent viewers. It turned into what was basically a PSA on why it's not a good way to learn Japanese because she slowly seemed to lose her sanity at how painfully awful the lessons were until finally switching to a JLPT N5 mock test.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Pink hair and eyes.
* CuteButPsycho: It isn't immediately obvious, but she makes it quite clear that, as a reaper, she enjoys killing and views not being allowed to do so as a sacrifice she has to make to be an idol. Her raps make this especially clear.
* CuteClumsyGirl: She tries to remain calm and collected most of the time, but has a lot of technical issues at the user level while streaming (at least early on) due to not being used to it. This causes her a lot of embarrassment. Adding to her clumsiness in later streams is her drinking habit, which has made her quite a bit more accident prone than her peers.
* CutenessProximity: Animals and children easily distract her, particularly in ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}''. She once forgot what the gang was doing to chase after a bunny and a child Pigman twice in the same stream. She also wants a cat when she moves to her new home.
* DamnYouMuscleMemory: While playing ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', she earned enough money to upgrade her booth, letting her control the deny/confirm stamps with the tab key instead of manually with a mouse. Not being used to this earned her a citation for accidentally turning away a cleared entrant.
* DCupDistress: While the shapeliest of the group, she has said on stream that she envies Ina and Gura's slimness, suggesting some level of unhappiness with the fact; this mostly stems from her sense of fashion, stating that most clothes she wants to wear would look better on a slimmer figure rather than her buxom self.
* DeepSouth: She claims to have spent some time there and while her accent isn't prominent, there are times when she gets excited and will [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-xlSceYnZ4 slip into it.]]
* DemonicPossession: Claims to be "borrowing" the body she presents herself with.
* {{Determinator}}:
** Watching her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' streams reveals that she is not good at it (she admits as such) and plays it with a controller, further making it hard. This doesn't stop her from doggedly trying and trying again until succeeding.
** Calli absolutely refused to let a terrorist attack kill her guard friends in ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', so she [[SaveScumming kept playing December 19th over and over again]] until she absolutely killed all three attackers before they could kill any of the guards.
* TheDitz: Aside from a lack of awareness in games, she [[https://youtu.be/BRFbVM6lVeM almost dropped 30K USD on a penthouse suite due to misreading the price listing.]]
* DoesNotLikeSpam: She spends part of her debut stream saying how much she hates cantaloupes and stressing that her name isn't pronounced like it. [[note]]Ca-lie-o-pee, rather than cally-ope[[/note]]
* DontFearTheReaper: Despite her appearance and how she portrays herself in her raps, Mori is friendly to everyone and does care for the wellbeing of humans. The times she got [[MoneyMauling huge superchat donations]] she expressed everyone to "take care of yourselves. It's not your time yet!"
* DontYouDarePityMe: PlayedForLaughs. When playing ''Clubhouse Games 51'', she made it abundantly clear that she didn't want Amelia to go easy on her, despite admitting that she's not that good at video games.
* DrinkingGame: She has hosted several with her viewers, usually imposing limits on herself so she doesn't imbibe a dangerous amount. Typically she will have rules that fall in line with whatever game she's playing, but sometimes she will host "secret" drinking games, where the rules are known only to her, and only revealed when her viewers trigger them.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: As her "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYXvKBZmBU0 A Way Out]]" collab with Kiara shows, Calli can be very reckless behind the wheel. She has no problem ''running people over'' for fun, and attempted to drive a car at high speed ''in reverse''.
* DrugsAreBad: The one time she tried "the Devil's Salad", she had a panic attack and lit her hair on fire. Ever since, she has abstained from it.
* ElectiveBrokenLanguage: Employs this trope in her own English during her ''VideoGame/KeepTalkingAndNobodyExplodes'' collab with Korone. Knowing Calli's implied background in teaching English, she's fluent in YouNoTakeCandle and is familiar with Korone's GratuitousEnglish way of describing things. The result is surprisingly more successful bomb defusals than even the members of the Japanese branch that played the game ''in their native language.''
-->'''Kiara''': [[IntelligibleUnintelligible HOW DOES SHE GET THOSE EXPLANATIONS LMAO]]
* EpicFail:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbwpKNYJfjs She once]] ordered a pair of kazoos, thought they didn't work, then ordered another one in the hopes that they would send her one that "worked." She furiously complained to the chat at the start of a stream about it, only for chat to spam that she had been playing it wrong the whole time (Kazoos aren't meant to have a ton of air blown through them; they're supposed to be hummed). After she tried it and was in complete disbelief, she got a bit down on herself over ordering the third one.
---> '''Calli''': Hum into the Kazoo? Well fine hold on then. ''[Squeak]'' AH? ''[Kazoo noises]'' WHAT THE FUUU WHAAAAT? ''[More Kazoo noises]'' AHHH! I hate this. I hate it so much. I ORDERED ANOTHER KAZOO! Come on man...
** In a collaboration stream, she had brought out a beer to drink while playing. Due to not having a bottle opener as well as not wanting to leave her PC in order to find a suitable tool in her kitchen, she ended up slamming it against the table in a vain attempt to open it, causing it to spill out and damage her table in the process.
** In order to celebrate a subscriber milestone with members, she had also purchased higher end liquor than what she normally gets; a properly corked bottle of wine and a bottle of champagne, which she actually mistook for sparkling wine. Her initial attempts to open the wine ended in failure, as it became clear she had never used a corkscrew before and somehow caused her hand to bleed while opening it, and, having never opened champagne, surprised herself when she popped the cork and nearly spilled it.
** During a livestream with Kiara, Calli recalls a tale about treating Kiara to a fancy penthouse suite. She spent two weeks talking with the hotel staff, making accommodations, and was literally a signature away from buying it all when she thought "wait, something's wrong here". She looked over the price again; turns out she misread the yen total (thinking the suite was $3,000 USD) and realized that it was ''ten times'' as much as she thought she was going to pay for. Thankfully, she was able to back out of the purchase.
* EpicFlail: Her favorite method of dealing death. Kiara correctly deduced it against the alternative answers of PianoDrop and heatstroke by reasoning that this was the most aggressive option.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Besides the whole thing with Kiara, Calliope has unintentionally managed to charm several of her senpai, including Suisei (who called her "cool and beautiful") and Polka (who greatly admires her penchant for vulgarity).
[[/folder]]
[[folder:F-L]]
* {{Fangirl}}:
** She's a fangirl for multiple senpais from the Japanese branch but specifically cites Kiryu Coco as her biggest inspiration for joining hololive EN and models her own hard work ethic after hers. She also mentions being a fan of the singers of hololive, but explictedly mentions Suisei when she was being interviewed by Trash Taste's podcast.
** Her favorite list of rappers is too long to list off, but she has a special appreciation for Music/SnoopDogg to the point ''where she owns a Daikimakura/body pillow of him.'' Because she doesn't smoke the "Devil's Salad", she claims he is responsible for the smoke effect in her stream.
** [[https://youtu.be/cn7XWZmkaPU When pressed about her favorite Youtube content creators]], she mentioned that she was a big fan of LetsPlay/{{Critikal}} and would like to work on something with him, even if it would be on brand for him to make fun of her the entire time. She mentions being a fan of his for at least a decade, and even covered [[https://youtu.be/Q6ehybzS9vc 2019 Guy]] on an unarchived stream.
** In terms of games, she has quite a few but nothing can top her love of ''VideoGame/Persona3''. Due to Atlus' restrictions on streaming as well as Cover's need to obtain permissions for broadcasting content she is not allowed to stream it, but it's such an important game to her that she is willing to dedicate multiple streams to begging Atlus to grant her broadcast permission.
* FamousLastWords: While [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vGeLYci-G4 fooling around with a TNT launcher]] in ''Minecraft'' with Gura, Ame, and Ina, Calli volunteered as a test subject.
-->'''Ina:''' Any last words?\\
'''Calli:''' Ummm... This is [[{{Irony}} ironic]]. There you go.
* TheFerryman: Calli says she knows of the Ferryman. It's usually a guy named Steve, but she says he mainly keeps to himself.
* FourIsDeath: Alluded to when she notes that four is her favorite number [[https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1303838433127747584 after her twitter got 44,400 followers]]. Her birthday's on 4/4.
* FriendToAllChildren: Her steady day job before joining Hololive is teaching little reapers, which while very stressful she does enjoy. Upon seeing a child Pigman in the Nether of ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', she began gushing about how cute it was, talking to it, and chasing it, claiming her teacher instincts had activated because of interacting with her students at school. Her use of the F-word instead of the actual word is because she found out children watch her streams, which amuses Gura. For much of the time in the Nether she wonders aloud where the parents and teachers of the Baby mobs are.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: During a drawing stream she mentions and apologizes for a [[Comicbook/GhostRider skeleton on a motorcycle]] driving by and causing a lot of background noise. She mentions this happens at around the same time every day.
* FunnyForeigner: Invoked with her approach to anime memes. When asked to deliver her best [[OneeSama "Ara ara~"]] she pronounced each individual letter, delivering a robotic "A-R-A-A-R-A". She also ended up pronouncing [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders "Yare yare daze"]] with English phonetics, turning it into "Yair yair days".
* GargleBlaster:
** Aside from drinking 95% Spirytus on-stream as part of a punishment for speaking English during a Japanese-only review session, she has been on the receiving end of this during her time attending live concerts.
---> '''Calli:''' I had ordered a red wine... but if someone told me that it was grape juice filtered with toilet water I would not have noticed a difference.
** One of her DrinkingGame conditions while playing ''VideoGame/AoOni'' was to take a sip of "Oni Koroshi" everytime she successfully hid from a monster inside a closet. She immediately recoiled from how bad it tasted.
* GirlsLoveChocolate: Kiara shares that, during their trip together to Hokkaido, Calli would come up to her over the course of the trip and ask for some of her German chocolate (Ritter Sport) to the point where Kiara wasn't able to eat any of it. Not that Kiara minded because she didn't crave for any like she expected and found Calli's newfound love for German chocolate to be very cute.
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: There's a few teddy bears on her bed.
* GracefulInTheirElement:
** One of the few times she isn't a NervousWreck is when she is rapping: not only is she a good singer, but her raps allow her to exude confidence and bravado that she struggles to maintain otherwise.
** She has noted that she is not the most competent at many video games, barring a few she grew up with so that there is some transferrable skill. This is evident during her playthrough of ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot4ItsAboutTime'', as she is able to get through it much more easily than other games she's played due to being a franchise veteran. She is also, by her own admission, decent at ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'', but not as good at other fighting games (and even then, only with a fight stick).
** Her experience with ''TabletopGame/HunterTheVigil'' lets her explain the system and guide her gen-mates through character creation in a very comprehensible manner -- a remarkable difference compared to her awkwardness in her Meme Review episode 3 days ago.
* GratuitousJapanese: By virtue of living in the underworld directly below Japan, she does know the language, but only at a conversational level, and cannot read kanji all that well. A few of her typical responses or reactions to things will be Japanese words or phrases that she finds particularly fun to say, with "naruhodone" [[labelnote:Translation]]a polite way of saying "I see" or "I understand"[[/labelnote]] being a noted favorite of hers.
* TheGrimReaper: Well, she is his apprentice, anyway.
* HasAType: She has stated that her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeE2rQlNZbQ physical preferences in men trend toward the shorter side]], offhandedly mentioning Critikal as a reference. This isn't a hard and fast rule for her (her audience has made jokes about cutting their own legs off so she would like them more, which she says wouldn't work) as she still prefers a humble and kind personality above everything, but being short helps.
* HaveIMentionedIAmADwarfToday: She constantly and insistently mentions being Death, living in the underworld as such.
* HellBentForLeather: Wears a cape [[CoatCape styled like a leather jacket]] with SpikesOfVillainy over her shoulders. As for the Hell part, well... check out her job description.
* HeroicBSOD:
** Rather frequently due to viewer generosity:
*** She had a legendary breakdown on her first gaming stream ever because a Canadian ([[BatmanGambit actually a Chinese person who donated in 500 dollars in Canadian dollars just to start a red superchat war]]) dropped 500 CD on a red superchat that started a massive chain of similar donations (mostly by actual Canadians), and she couldn't believe people would actually give her that much money.
*** It happened again in the next stream where superchat was enabled, as her attempt to apologize for having to private her previous video thanking her fans for the earlier superchats was continuously delayed by an even bigger [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mX1Pr9JRDIQ superchat war erupting between America and Canada that made her around ten thousand dollars in about 20 minutes]]. She ended up crying from the shock.
----> '''Calli:''' Please take care of yourselves first.
*** This happened again during her 400k Subscriber party stream. It got so bad she decided to block the superstream donations at 1 hour and 5 minutes... but then it turned out that it wasn't working correctly or she accidentally turned it on again. Meaning that a stream of donations started going in when she wasn't looking. Cue her going from smug to panicked scrambling as she tried to turn it off properly again.
** She once forgot how Glory Kills worked for a few seconds in ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' on a Cacodemon (despite doing Glory Kills constantly and being her favorite part of the game) due to the stress and confusion, then realizing her mistake and ranting at herself for a while afterwards while calling herself an idiot.
---> '''Calli:''' I deserved to die for that.
** After mentioning that her streaming schedule revolves mostly around her standard day job (meaning once she's done streaming she's finished all her work for the day) she starts talking about how she relaxes and unwinds, only to actually stop, ask herself what she actually does for fun, and stops talking for about a minute as she has an existential crisis before saying she should really find something to do for herself and take her mind off working.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation:
** Despite being regarded as the hardest working member as well as being fairly skilled in everything she's done (art, animation, and music), she constantly sells herself short and thinks she isn't anything special, something she acknowledged in an ESL teaching stream when asked if she liked herself and her response was a shrug followed by a hesitant "I don't... hate myself." It's to the point where she has incorporated it into lyrics on her EP as well as writing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYu3PvRPZR8 an entire song]] about her own insecurities.
--->''Reaper Or Rapper?'' lyrics: ''I lowered all your expectations and I'll tank 'em again/because I like to diss myself along with all of my friends'' \\
''Dead Beats'' lyrics: ''Calliope Mori on this goddamn mic!/I don't want your fucking money, I just want your life!/I'm filling syllables with curse words because I am an amateur!/Everybody likes...self...deprecating...rap...I'm gonna stop. Like, I got nothing. I'm so tired, man...''
** She's also usually the first to admit that she's not good at video games, such as when Gura jokingly called her out on "hid[ing] behind the 'I'm Calliope Mori, I'm bad at video games!'", to which Calli responded with "Don't be rude, I ''know'' I'm bad at video games!", or when she was playing ''Clubhouse Games 51'' with Amelia and credited moments where she was doing good to [[DontYouDarePityMe Amelia going easy on her]].
** Goes full-circle in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8Q-smqaUgA guh]]'', where her self-deprecating tendencies are ironically turned into a BadassBoast: no matter how her haters try to insult her, it's bound to fail because she's probably already acknowledged that aspect and made fun of it herself!
--->''Try again, I'm wishing you well, but you will '''never''' roast me better than I roast myself!''
* HipHopRap: Prepared a rap song for her debut, and improvised another afterwards. She released her songs regularly for the first week after her debut and plans on having at least one new song a month.
* HonorBeforeReason: During her playthrough of ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', she absolutely refuses to trust the EZIC agents, even burning up $1000 given as a gift that would've allowed her family to afford both food and medicine.
* HumanityEnsues: She [[DemonicPossession obtained]] a human body as part of becoming a vtuber which comes with drawbacks such as being able to get sick, needing human medication, and requiring sleep and nourishment.
* IAmNotYourFather: Despite Ollie and surprisingly enough, her viewers', insisting otherwise, she constantly has to remind them that she indeed is not "dad". However, she is prone to letting it slide on occasion.
* IfItsYouItsOkay: Inverted on one occasion, when Kiara starts getting giddy at the prospect of seeing Calli naked.
-->'''Calli:''' I don't know why you're so worried about those kinds of things. It's just a body.
-->'''Kiara:''' You don't... so, you don't mind if I see your naked body?
-->'''Calli:''' I mean... if it's in the right context, right? When you go to places like an onsen, no one cares. Right?
-->'''Kiara:''' ''*starts getting excited*''
-->'''Calli:''' HOLD ON! Because it's you—hold on a minute—because it's you though, I might actually have a problem.
* INeedAFreakingDrink: Frequently, due to either exasperation at dealing with Kiara or frustration/embarrassment at herself. This seems to be primarily why she keeps a bottle of cheap red wine on hand at all times.
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: She is prone to saying some ''very'' suggestive things without a second thought or ruminating on the possible interpretations.
--> '''Kiara:''' "The only way to stop me (from winning this wheelchair balancing minigame) is to seduce me."
--> '''Calli:''' [[https://youtu.be/9groVX1d9Rw "Hey, Kiara...unzip your pants?"]]
* InsistentTerminology: She has her terms and she often sticks to them, even when they're odd. For example, calling herself "your boy" [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Guzma]]-style, always calling her beers "cold ones" even when it gets awkward, and calling the [=PogChamp=] emote "[[MundaneMadeAwesome Champion of the Pog]]".
* InsultOfEndearment: Tends to call Kiara "Kusotori" (Japanese for "shit bird"), which out of context sounds like an insult, but the two are VitriolicBestBuds at worst. They are good friends, even spending a day together at the spa, it's just that Kiara [[TheTease likes messing with Calli]] and [[TheGadfly has a tendency to get on her nerves]]. When Polka started imitating Calli and using the word, Kiara cheerfully but firmly told her that [[HypocriticalHeartwarming Calli is the only one allowed to call her that]].
* InterruptedByTheEnd: [[https://youtu.be/BQUnJTQnQHQ?t=6011 Once cut herself off]] by mistiming her own outro song.
* {{Irony}}:
** Even though she is a Grim Reaper, she tends to either A) be the first one to die when playing with others or B) almost never get a chance to be the "killer" in AsymmetricMultiplayer games. This happens so frequently that Gura [[https://youtu.be/Pb3sw6akp8Y?t=142 lampshades this trend]] during a group playthrough of ''VideoGame/{{Phasmophobia}}'':
--->'''Gura:''' It's kinda ironic how Calli always dies first, even though she's Death. ''[laughs]''
** As an [[TheGrimReaper incarnation or deity of death]] that totes a massive scythe, many expected her to have a BadAss, [[TheBaroness dominating]] personality. She does come off that way in [[GracefulInTheirElement most of her raps]], but that aside, she's more in the "lovable and kind-hearted dork [[PaperTiger trying and utterly failing to present herself]] as a cool edgy reaper" territory. Considering that she is a fan of gap moe, this is very likely intentional.
* JapanesePoliteness:
** Lampshaded in her debut song "Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP?", where one of the lines calls out how weird it is that she's rapping in formal Japanese speech.
** An odd example given she is part of Hololive English, but during her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' stream she would repeatedly apologize to the demons she was slaying, all the while calling them Sir.
** Subverted when she actually speaks Japanese, as she defaults to more casual speech despite attempting to communicate in ''keigo'' when speaking to those whom she respects.
* JumpScare:
** On the EN Minecraft server, Ame's PPP tower has a monster spawner. While using the tower for fishing, Calli would use the monster spawner to get some XP. She pressed it 3 times and jumped in surprise every time because she wasn't used to it.
** During the same session, when she noticed that Amelia had begun giving Ollie and Moona a tour of the EN server, she unintentionally caused Ollie to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ga9Dm_ZRwc scream like a banshee]] when she showed up.
* JustFriends: Calliope does like Kiara as a friend, but she always shoots down any attempts to go past that.
--> '''Kiara:''' We're [Kiara and Marine] just friends, Calli. I want to make it clear we're just friends, okay?
--> '''Calliope:''' ''[cheerfully]'' As are we.
* KleptomaniacHero: Calli admits that her absolute favorite thing do to in video games is being able to steal everything that isn't nailed down.
* TheKlutz: She can't ever seem to start a stream without some sort of accident happening, technical difficulties or otherwise. [[ButtMonkey Or both at the same time]].
* TheLadette: Despite her own fashion sense and desire to be seen as "cute," her tastes, actions and manner of speaking make her out to be the most masculine of the EN group and hololive as a whole. While she is unapologetically herself in this regard, she has stated that she dislikes the term "tomboy," especially when used to describe herself.
* LadySwearsALot: She frequently drops as many swears as Coco does. Right down to {{Cluster F Bomb}}s. Despite her efforts to maintain proper language, it is common to listen to her cursing on streams.
* LastNameBasis: DownplayedTrope. While it's not that she ''never'' calls her by first name, she tends to primarily refer to, and address, Amelia as "Watson".
* LoveYouAndEverybody: After tweeting out an image of a birthday shrine for Amelia, Calli's fans started poking fun at her saying that she's cheating on Kiara, with Kiara endorsing the sentiment. [[https://youtu.be/KyFJl_6nFbc?t=4276 Calli's response to people accusing her of cheating was to say you can tell your friends you love them without it being romantic.]]
--> '''Calli:''' People saying that stuff about Amelia, too...LISTEN! You can love your friends! Just don't make it weird.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:M-R]]
* MadnessMantra: [[https://youtu.be/zioPpWvjhKg "Atlus, please let me play Persona 3"]].
* MarriedToTheJob: [[https://youtu.be/mGnKjLhQV2s?t=4591 Her response to the ol' "will you marry me" question]].
* MeaningfulName:
** "Mori" is [[GratuitousLatin Latin]] for "to die" befitting a reaper. She adds more wordplay into her SigningOffCatchphrase "I'm Mori, I hope you remember me!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]The famous saying is ''memento mori'' -- "remember that you will die one day."[[/labelnote]]
** "Calliope" can be written in Japanese as "美声" [[labelnote:Pronunciation]]"kariope" or "bisei"[[/labelnote]], which means "beautiful voice", as befitting a singer. It is also the name of the [[TheMuse Greek Muse]] who presides over epic poetry, in addition to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calliope_(music) a type of instrument]].
* MomentKiller: Not Calli herself, but Ghost Rider has made it a habit to interrupt her audience "dates" in order to hit on her.
* MoneyMauling: Her audience will engage in what can be considered psychological warfare by sending her large donations and either joke messages (such as pretending to buy recorders or concert tickets from her) or genuine messages of support. Due to her confidence and stress issues, she almost always responded to such generosity by either panicking or crying due to a feeling of not having done enough to deserve it. While she has gotten better about accepting such messages of support, she has stated that all she's done is gotten better at hiding her internal panic whenever someone gives her a large donation.
* MotorMouth: Has a very fast style of talking. Considering rap is her strongest musical style, this is more than justified.
* MustHaveCaffeine: Averted. When asked about what kind of other things she drinks, she explained that any kind of caffeine and sugary liquids like soda don't mix well with her horrible nerves, digestive system, and energy problems, doing things that go from wildly throwing off her sleep schedule to making her sick. She did use energy drinks when she was younger but can't handle them anymore.
* MyEyesAreUpHere: Said word for word towards Kiara once during their first collab.
* NervousWreck:
** ''Very'' prevalent in her debut stream and a constant element of her solo streams, especially if she is sober. The only time she ''isn't'' this is when she sings her rap songs. Her nerves are even worse if she's playing a video game, where she quickly earned a reputation for her cute panicking and fumbling. She has explained this as a deep fear of disappointing people, but has slowly started to gain her confidence when noting that she still maintains steady viewership regardless of what she does.
** After explaining that the "smoke" was coming from her Snoop Dogg Daikimura and not her because she doesn't partake in "that substance", she elaborated on the NoodleIncident of setting her hair on fire that the reason why was because her first try of the "Devil's Salad" made her have a [[FreakOut full blown panic attack and is why she never touched the stuff again]].
* NeverSayDie: Zigzagged. In an attempt to evade Youtube's demonetization and shadowbanning, she has to come up with various other ways to express the concepts of killing and murder without actually using the words; her go-to tends to be "slay" as well as the overly literal "end human life." She also has to be careful to avoid violating Japanese censorship to sidestep legal issues with her songs' lyrics. However, in many cases she only censors the written lyrics, while saying what she actually means. For example, in "失礼しますが、RIP♡ || “Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP?", despite both the song title and the subtitles of the music video saying RIP, what she actually says translates as "Excuse my rudeness, but could you please die?". She also outright says "Korusu no koto ga tanoshii", which means "killing is fun", and "Murder is so fucking kawaii".
* NiceGirl: If you ask Fubuki, who met her in real life at least once, she'd say that Calliope is an angel. For her part, she says that she'd like to think she's one but doesn't want to presume such a thing.
* NoodleIncident:
** When asked about one of her most memorable "drunk" moments, she confessed to lighting her hair on fire.
** Before she started singing the soundtrack to ''{{WesternAnimation/Shrek}}'' in her 800k karaoke stream, Calli mentions that Shrek is currently ''banned in the Underworld.''
* NoJustNoReaction: When [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HjX0xICUvs a commenter asked her]] "What if you kissed Death-sensei?", she became so disgusted by the idea that she had to step away from her computer to get some mouthwash.
-->'''Calli:''' That's my ''teacher''! ''[disgusted noises]'' I need to go gargle ''salt water'' or something, be right back!
* NoPronunciationGuide: Calliope's name is pronounced "kuh-LYE-uh-pee" in English, but the way her name is written in Japanese - かりおぺ - makes the pronunciation "KAH-ree-oh-peh". Thankfully, she also answers to "Calli". Ollie pronounces her as "Cal-lee-O-pee", likely unaware of how it's supposed to be pronounced.
* NowWhat: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-HtFtYGTV8&t=4353s Discussed during one of her Wine Parties]]. She admits to wanting to get to the top in several things, and as such becoming TheWorkaholic that she is. She then realizes that she is pretty high up now and at this point does not know what she will do when she is at the top. She gets a small HeroicBSOD from this realization.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: How she tends to address instances of perverted behavior, by acting like she has no understanding of the topic or ComicallyMissingThePoint.
* OnlySaneWoman: Thus far, the only member of Hololive EN who never resorts to lewdness. When all the other girls are making subtle or not so subtle perverted jokes, Calli always feigns ignorance and stays out of it.
* OverlyLongGag: After mentioning from time to time that she wants to play ''VideoGame/Persona3'' on stream, she then dedicates ''an entire hour-and-a-half stream'' to begging Creator/{{Atlus}} to let her do so.
* PaperTiger: She certainly looks intimidating enough with her massive SinisterScythe and her spiky [[HellBentForLeather leather cape]], and is a death deity (in training), and she certainly tries to project the façade of a reaper who loves killing people... emphasis on "'''tries'''". It's readily apparent to anyone who watches her for even 5 minutes that she is a very gentle soul. Readily apparent in her ''VideoGame/StoryOfSeasons: Pioneers of Olive Town'' stream, where she [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIG1J5ZJSDM spends several minutes]] [[CutenessProximity gushing over the selection of ingame pets]] and professing her love for cats, spends most of her money on a Maine Coon... and proceeds to name it "[[DeathbringerTheAdorable Destroyer]]".
--> '''Youtube commenter''': ''Calli's Brain: "Oh God, I'm acting way too adorable, these animals are way too irresistable and I'd be completely remiss if I don't buy a Maine Coon........... think, think.....''
-->''AH!!! If I name the big kitty Destroyer, that'll make up for how I'm absolutely gushing over how much I love him, right? [[BlatantLies They definitely won't clip me being cute]] if I call him Destroyer. Genius."''
* PortmanteauCoupleName: InUniverse. She and Kiara are referred to as Takamori, which is even given this hashtag when they collab.
* PrecisionFStrike: After spending her debut stream trying to not to swear out loud, she pretends to be cutesy during her rap song before saying a perfectly timed ''fuck it''.
* {{Psychopomp}}: She became a [=Vtuber=] to collect souls and she's able to obtain the ones that were lost from [=TeeTee=].
* PunchClockVillain: After Kiara reacted badly to TheReveal and the ending of ''VideoGame/AWayOut'', Calli tried to cheer her up by pointing out that while [[spoiler:Vincent may have betrayed her]], Calli is still her friend and only kills her because it's her job (and because Kiara [[DeathIsCheap can come back from it]]).
* RagsToRiches: The primary reason she is so grateful and was taken aback by the aforementioned Superchat war was due to the opportunity presented to her because of it; she had been streaming off of a laptop from a self admittedly claustrophobic home, and in addition to streaming, works two other jobs; one as a freelancer and the other being a more stable position teaching "scythe-swinging lessons." Because of the generosity of her viewers, she is now in the process of upgrading her equipment, moving to a more spacious area suited for recording, and may be able to dedicate more time streaming now that she's quit her day job. [[note]]She claimed in the Christmas 2020 video that she'd quit scythe-swinging for good, and clarified in her Superchat-reading stream the following Sunday that this meant she was now streaming full-time.[[/note]]
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: A minor example. When Kiara posted a picture of food revealing that she and Calli had dinner together IRL, Calli remained in-character by explaining she resides in the part of the underworld that is directly below Japan.
* RecycledInSPACE: Not Calli herself but she's notable for staying in-character and maintaining {{Kayfabe}} more than any other member in hololive, leading to her giving an underworld twist to any discussion of life outside of streaming. e.g. Calli didn't just go to school, she went to ''reaper'' school. She doesn't just reside in Japan, she resides in ''underworld'' Japan. She even continued this when appearing away from the vtuber context as a guest on the WebVideo/TrashTaste podcast.
* RedOniBlueOni: Blue to Kiara's red. Calli is gloomy, sarcastic and introverted, while Kiara is bubbly, cheerful and outgoing. Their contrasting personalities make for great comedic interaction.
* TheResenter: She spoke about how she used to be this on ''Trash Taste'' in regards to idols. She looked at the idol industry and believed it was a bunch of manufactured success with the talent having everything handed to them while she was working hard at making music for a fraction of the recognition. It wasn't until she met and became friends with a few idols that she changed her mind and saw that they were working just as hard, if not harder, than she was and deserved their success.
-->'''Calli:''' [[https://youtu.be/tIU0xG-lXkQ?t=2210 I realized I was being a jealous little hoe.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder: S-Z]]
* SanitySlippage: During a track-making/sound sampling stream, she justified her erratic behavior as having lost her mind due to an incredibly stressful day in addition to her normal anxieties, and that acting strange helps regain her composure.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Gender inverted. There are times her screams during a horror game sound like they're coming from a very scared male person; some of the more panicked ones have been compared to [[WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry Tom's]].
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: She tried to end her first collab stream with Kiara the second she realized that she was getting JustForFun/{{Rickroll}}ed.
* SecurityCling: While not physically, during a group session of ''Phasmophobia'' she stuck incredibly close to Kiara, begging her not to leave her alone in the darkness.
* SelfAppliedNickname: She calls herself "your boy" when talking about herself in the third person to her audience; due to her affiliation with hip-hop culture, she's ''supposed'' to be saying "ya boy/ya boi," but has trouble with slang, making her come across as TotallyRadical at times.
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Zigzagged. While she does get easily embarrassed around things that are overtly sexual in nature, she doesn't regard nudity as such; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN6WW0jOel8 when talking about her spa date with Kiara,]] she mentioned wanting to take her to an onsen at least once. Kiara finds such places embarrassing, but Calli flat-out stated that she doesn't really mind being naked in front of other people since to her, "it's just a body." She slightly retracted her statement when realizing that it would be [[AbhorrentAdmirer Kiara]] who would see her naked, but would be fine with it so long as she didn't make it weird and dared Kiara to get naked in front of her next time they have a day trip such as this.
* ShapedLikeItself: When she can't figure out or remember the name for something, she will be overly literal in describing what it's supposed to be and name it as such; she has called Sora's mascot "Kuma(bear) Dude," her PC tower a "techtangle," and she named her character in ''VideoGame/GangBeasts'' "Burger Boss," as he's the boss of all burgers.
* TheSheriff: During her run of ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', she portrayed the border agent as one, speaking in a southern accent through most of the playthrough and wearing a personally stylized cowboy hat on her avatar. She has since acknowledged "Sheriff Calli" as their own character of sorts, as a way of disciplining her chat when they get out of line.
* SigningOffCatchPhrase: "I'm Mori, I hope you remember me!" followed by a hearty and deep ''"PEACE!"''
* SinisterScythe: Has one that's taller than she is.
* SkewedPriorities: When Amelia was showing Ollie and Moona around the EN ''Minecraft'' server, Moona ended up getting blown up by a Creeper just outside of Calli's house. Her initial reaction was to check if Adam Saddler's grave and Mr. Steeds were unharmed.
* SleepDeprivation: Has admitted that due to her very tight schedule, she very rarely gets more than 6 hours of sleep a night. It got to the point that during a collaboration stream for ''VideoGame/Overcooked2'' she had mentioned being up for 36 hours straight in order to try and finish a freelance project.
* SleepyHead: Thanks to her multiple stressful jobs, slightly older age than the other girls, love of wine, and anxiety problems, Calliope often exhausts herself and begins yawning and acting sleepy pretty soon after she starts streaming. She actually did fall asleep at least once during the first EN Minecraft collab. She once was convinced by her fans to skip reading superchats so that she could sleep despite feeling bad about it.
* SpecialGuest: On the 23rd episode of the ''WebVideo/TrashTaste'' podcast.
* SpikesOfVillainy: Her collar has a row of spikes lined alongside it as part of her reaper aesthetic.
* SpringtimeForHitler: In one stream where she gets tormented by yet another series of red superchats (100 USD or more), she starts playing the recorder poorly on purpose to the tune of her background music in order to get viewers to stop. This only ends up pulling in even more red superchats thanking her for the impromptu concert.
* StarvingArtist: From what little is known about her personal life, she embodied this. Despite being multi-talented, she is working two other jobs, barely making ends meet. Her living space was incredibly cramped (from her description it seemed even smaller than a normal studio apartment), with her "desk" seeming to be not much more than a small end table that she didn't even have a proper chair for and had to squat over to use. She also seems to have been living off cheap booze and fast food or instant curry for a while; the former by choice (as she can't taste the difference with expensive stuff) and the latter out of necessity. Only after she joined hololive was she finally able to afford some luxuries.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: Has this dynamic with [[LovableSexManiac Kiara]], playing the StraightMan to Kiara's wise guy, constantly shutting down or turning away the flirts and advances of the perverted phoenix.
* TakeThatCritics:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_M-6lkoi6L4 Off With Their Heads]]" is supposed to avert this, despite most of her listeners saying it is a diss track. Much to Calli's frustration, she intended the song to be tough love and motivational so that people listening would understand they need strength to follow their dreams. She went on to repeatedly explain it was never intended to be a diss at anyone in multiple streams to the point where she was so annoyed and depressed with the interpretation of the song being a diss track that she temporarily disabled her comments on the music video, apologized for it, and considers the audience misinterpreting her intended message to be one of her biggest failures in her lyric writing career.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8Q-smqaUgA guh]]" is a subversion of this. She has discussed in a few lyric dives that while the surface level interpretation was her making fun of her critics and basically not letting hateful comments get to her through a heavy dose of SelfDeprecation, she has several lines of the song which hint that beating yourself up over your work all the time as a defense mechanism is a toxic mindset in and of itself. She's staed that she had to learn to be proud as opposed to downplaying her own accomplishments just so that negative criticism won't affect her, and that her "dislikers" are people that are moreso to be pitied than actually fought against since their own mindset is probably born of some other negative aspect of their own lives.
* TearsOfJoy: Two instances, both of them the result of getting overwhelmed from being '''''showered''''' with a flurry of red super chats from her fans.
** The first instance was during her "Mad Father" gaming stream, where deadbeats from the US and Canada gave her at ''least'' '''$10,000''' dollars in a single night. (See HeroicBSOD above)
** The second instance was during her Endurance Stream to 1 Million Subscribers; around the 4 hour 22 minute mark she hit the 1 million goal, and as she took a moment to watch the 'rainbow' (the non-stop wave of superchats in the chat window) flying past, she sounded like she was mere seconds away from crying.
---> '''Calliope''': You guys are crazy...but you're also the best. I have the best fans...I wouldn't be here without all of you.
* TeamDad: Her calmer attitude as well as her deeper voice and tendency to sternly discipline her chat whenever they start acting up has given her the reputation as being a tough father; her chat will sometimes refer to Kiara as their mother, much to Calli's ire.
* ThatCameOutWrong:
** At the end of the song "Dead Beats", she (or rather, a cutesy version of herself) started singing "Deadbeats, jerk it now!". Her more serious self made her stop, since it sounded quite inappropriate, with the cutesy Calli trying to explain that she was referring to a jerky dance and not [[ADateWithRosiePalms the other thing]].
** During her debut stream, when it came time to show off her full Vtuber avatar:
---> '''Calli:''' Alright guys, how about we check out my full body. I will now show you my body. Wait.. wait hold on, hold on, nononono wait wait wait that isn't what-
** During the Halloween Secret Neighbour collab stream, she'd been having a particularly bad run of dying early in the rounds. Exasperated, Calli described her frustrations as a perpetual condition of hers, although the chat assumed she was talking about Death-Sensei, her teacher. Calli denied it after, claiming the chat was making it "weird."
---> '''Calli:''' What can I say, I'm attracted to death. Death and me are meant to be, listen. Either I'm killing folks or I'm getting killed. [[TeacherStudentRomance I'm in a dedicated relationship with death, I am.]]
** In one ''{{VideoGame/Minecraft}}'' stream, she crafts some storage chests and [[https://youtu.be/DS6AuBWkapg talks about how big they are]]. Her chat immediately ribbed her for it.
---> '''Calli:''' We want a lot of big chests. Only big chests allowed here. Lots of big ones. ...What? ''Shut up, chat, shut up!''
* TheyKilledKennyAgain: Despite being an incarnation of Death, Calli ironically has the tendency of being the first (or only) death in a lot of collaboration streams with cooperative games. In regards to her participation in the first ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' collaboration, the last match is particularly notable because it's the only one she actually survived.
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: She said she would only properly say "ara ara" after reaching one million subscribers. After reaching the sub goal, she '''finally''' [[https://youtu.be/d1l_JfQ34Lg delivers what was promised]], and in the most Calli way possible.
--> '''Calli:''' Ara ara~ ''[{{Beat}}]'' ...''bitch''.
* TimeAbyss: Claims to have existed since the beginning of time, or at least as long as things have been dying. Her official age is listed as "[[MathematiciansAnswer No]]". [[FridgeLogic Yet she somehow still has a specific birthday.]] [[note]]Presumably it is a date she chose for others to celebrate her birthday, similar to how Gura (who does have an actual birthday but has forgotten it) chose a day to celebrate her own. It could also be the birthday of the person whose body she is "borrowing"[[/note]]
* ToBeLawfulOrGood: Deciding moral dilemmas is the entire point of ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', and the game presents a challenge with a recurring character named Jorji, who never actually has his documents in proper order without trying to pull something else like smuggling contraband in with him. However, he is a genuinely nice person who understands you are only doing your job, and is designed to make players feel sorry for him. When he became a wanted criminal, Calli stated that making the decision to detain him was the hardest moral choice she ever had to make in her life.
* TortureTechnician: [[https://youtu.be/G3zAKMFfilM?t=2338 Has offered to be one]] to help out in Kiara's "usual room" for re-education purposes.
* TotallyRadical: She tends to use dated slang in a very stilted manner (such as referring to herself as "your boy"), as she's both inhuman and ageless, so her communication skills with modern humanity leave something to be desired. It's not helped by the fact that, even when she does use modern slang, she's old enough that the meaning of some of it has changed, and she didn't know until her fans pointed it out [[note]]Most noteworthy would be her use of the word "yeet". While it is now primarily used to refer to throwing things, it also used to be used as an expression of approval, which is the usage Calli was familiar with, and most of her audience was not; this leads Gura of all people to correctly guess that Calli fears being labeled as a "Boomer", to which the latter reluctantly concedes[[/note]].
* TranquilFury: An EXTREMELY long series of frustrating deaths during one of her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' streams that nearly made her late for her next collab slowly built her anger and stress while groaning and loudly complaining, until it [[RageBreakingPoint finally caused her to snap]], changing from her MotorMouth personality to dead silence and focus as she proceeded to tear apart every demon in her way. Fans were quick to call this "Reaper Mode".
--> '''Calli:''' ''[Afterwards: gasping for air]'' [[UnstoppableRage Sorry I had to show you that side of me chat.]]
* {{Tsundere}}: Type B. She is incredibly nice and sweet to both her viewers and fellow members ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXCEtOLIS-M although she can get snippy at times]]), with the exception of Kiara. She has pointed out there's no actual bad blood between the two of them, but it's mostly either out of exasperation in dealing with her antics as well as because she's so comfortable around Kiara that she feels she can give her shit and Kiara will never take it seriously. Calli also isn't above retweeting fanart shipping her with Kiara. Her "tsun" side also comes out whenever she raps, which she confesses is closer to the "real" her.
* TWordEuphemism: She makes note of attempting not to swear in her debut and refers to cantaloupes as being an "F-word piece of S-word". This is because she had found out that much of her family watches her streams, including her younger cousins and grandmother, and she doesn't want them to hear her natural penchant for profanity. This also extends to words she finds to be embarassing qualifiers for her such as "Boomer", which she tries (and fails) to pass off as "B-word" in front of an unimpressed Gura.
* VerbalTic: "Guh!" after drinking.
* VideoGameCaringPotential: Calli became ''very'' attached to protecting her son and Sergiu (one of the guards who she becomes friends with) in ''VideoGame/PapersPlease''. She goes far enough to [[SaveScumming reload]] the same days over and over again to make sure she does a good enough job to keep her son healthy and fed and keeps Sergiu alive from terrorists. Her efforts pay off as Sergiu informed her on December 20th that him and his wife were expecting, and planned on naming the child after Calli's inspector and were leaving a gift at her home before being shipped off to another post. The $100 he gave her was enough for her to seek out a... [[GreyAndGreyMorality not-"bad"]] ending.
-->'''Calli:''' That's the first bit of actual feel-good happiness I've felt playing this game.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Kiara. She helped narrate and animate her storybook intro, but spent a majority of the time in Kiara's debut stream denying they were friends, mostly due to Kiara being a phoenix and thus unable to die. A good example is during the first all-member [=HoloMyth=] Minecraft collab: she comforts Kiara with the other girls when Kiara gets self-deprecating over her various deaths in the collab while also laughing at her on the signs marking the various places she died. Calli's obviously the more prickly of the two, but she also often [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther lets her guard down and shows she really does care for and love Kiara]].
* WalkingTechbane: Despite tech issues being a constant in the branch, Calli seems to have the worst luck with such things. Aside from simple slip-ups like incorrect scene transition, her original streaming hardware became the source of a lot of trouble for her; she had crashed on multiple streams and for a while was completely unable to host collabs with it, causing others like Kiara to broadcast on her channel due to having better hardware. The laptop eventually gave up the ghost, [[https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1321650627898875904?s=19 but not without setting her back weeks of hard work.]] Ironically, this is in spite of its components. When Calli talked about her new workstation in a side-by-side comparison, it turned out that the laptop was actually very powerful for what it was, and neither Calli nor her audience could figure out why it was causing her so much trouble aside from incredibly bad luck.
* WallOfWeapons: Hanging above her bed is a board of medieval weapons.
* WhyWontYouDie: She responds to Kiara's advances in this way; Mori being a reaper, Kiara's inability to die annoys her to no end.
* AWildRapperAppears: Being an English-speaking rapper has given Calli a chance to appear on her senpai's singles such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGun2cWbPEM Watame]] and [[https://youtu.be/gEYadEYf3-o?t=1950 Rikka]].
* WineIsClassy: Inverted. She enjoys red wine, specifically the cheapest variety available (no more than 3 dollars) and [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial insisted]] that she drinks it properly out of a glass as opposed to straight from the bottle. She does admit it tastes like crap though. She later justified the choice, being that she genuinely cannot tell the difference between cheap and expensive wine, and that the cheaper varieties still have the desired effect of helping her relax.
* TheWorkaholic: Aside from streaming as part of hololive, she is noted to have two other jobs and keeps busy on a near constant basis, never really taking time for herself; according to her, this is because she had a goal when she was younger, but lost sight of it completely somewhere down the line and never stopped to consider why she was still working. This is also lampshaded in her first song where she calls herself a "workaholic business lady gettin' shit done." Later revealed that she doesn't relax at all because she simply doesn't know how to, and is always thinking about work.
-->'''Calliope:''' I tend to prefer [streaming after teaching] because then I get all my obligations out of the way and can put my feet up and draw, or...''[{{Beat}}]'' ''[to herself]'' What do I do for fun?
* {{Yandere}}:
** During their playthrough of ''VideoGame/AWayOut'', Kiara told Calli that an NPC wanted her number and was hitting on her (he was actually asking for Kiara's character's prisoner number). Without a second of hesitation, Calli wanted to kill him, which surprised even Kiara.
--->'''Kiara:''' He wants my number, Calli, he's hitting on me!
--->'''Calli:''' Let me kill him.
--->'''Kiara:''' Eh?! ''[flustered breathing]''
** During her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0b0EnEXzSs collaboration]] with Ina and Kiara for ''Puyo Puyo Tetris 2'', one of Kiara's chat members berated her skill since Kiara was constantly losing. Calli got [[SuddenlyShouting immediately upset]] over it.
--->'''Calli:''' Who is it?! I'll [[PrecisionFStrike fucking]] kill them!
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Hers is pink.

'''Associated characters:''' [[Characters/HololiveMinorCharacters Death-sensei]] (mascot), [[Characters/HololiveEnglish J-chad]] (manager)
----
[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder:A-E]]
* TheAce: The most musically talented out of EN, being an accomplished rapper and singer, playing a multitude of instruments, as well as constantly composing her own original songs. She's also a talented artist, having drawn her senpais like [[https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1385225027549757444 Marine]].
* TheAlcoholic:
** In almost every stream, she pops open a bottle of the absolute cheapest wine she can get from the convenience store and chugs it straight from the bottle. She keeps a wine glass around for decoration but doesn't use it. According to her the stuff tastes awful, but she's not letting that stop her.
** In her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYi_E5JLx4c first Japanese only stream]], she took a sip of 95% Spirytus for every English word she let slip and every answer she got wrong on her Japanese test. By the end of the stream, she took at least ''twenty'' sips. She was supposed to have another stream much later in the day, but ended up having to cancel it due to being too intoxicated.
** Eventually she addressed this, as according to her a few friends had commented on her early streams making her look like she had a serious drinking problem when in reality she doesn't drink that heavily often, commenting that it was mostly due to nerves. In response, she cut down on how often she drinks alcohol on-stream and now frequently goes out of her way to point out that she's drinking water so viewers don't worry about her. While she isn't as heavy of a drinker as she was originally, she will openly admit to drinking beer during collab streams and her free talk streams are often labeled as wine parties.
* AintTooProudToBeg: A very comedic example. She resorts to having a dedicated stream to begging Atlus permission to stream ''VideoGame/Persona3'' (Specifically the FES version). She does this for nearly an hour and a half.
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Calli has a bit of a reputation for being a ChickMagnet among her fellow streamers, usually as a result of her painting the outward image of herself as a hip "bad boy" reaper, both in her streams and her music. Notably, several Hololive JP talent [[invoked]][[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff have expressed their attraction to her]]. Polka particularly loves her for her foul-mouthed demeanor, saying she wants to marry a woman like Calli, whereas Suisei found herself infatuated with her due to her cool attitude and good looks, on top of reciting lyrics from her music. Subaru also mentioned taking a liking to Calli, which caused an influx of angry chats from [[ClingyJealousGirl Kiara]], who would then go on an angry tirade in their next collab about how betrayed she felt (jokingly, of course).
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents:
** Her "reaper mother" has told her that they used her music in a spin class and Calliope has asked her not to tell them that she was the person who wrote it. She has also met Kiara and is very fond of her and the relationship she has with Calliope, frequently asking her daughter how Kiara is doing and what she's up to.
** She revealed during a [[https://youtu.be/r3Ottnh8T0Q?t=1h51m10s post stream Superchat readout]] that "papa Reaper", her father, collects what can only be assumed to be used secondhand bootleg anime figures, and will regularly send her pictures of whatever new figure he has found for his collection.
* ApologizesALot: Is very self-conscious about her image to the point of never wanting to come off as abrasive, so she almost always apologizes whenever she makes a joke that can be taken in even a slightly offensive way.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: For as big of a {{tsundere}} as she is towards Kiara, there's no shortage of moments that show that she greatly appreciates and values their friendship, such as going on a spa trip and an expensive hotel trip with her. She's also not above retweeting fanart shipping her with Kiara, and doesn't hesitate to defend Kiara ''or'' their relationship when either is called into question. Best displayed during the time leading up to Kiara's departure from Japan, especially the karaoke stream they had together, where Calli was clearly just as sad as Kiara was, and when Kiara broke down crying, Calli hugged her and tried her best to comfort her, telling her that they'll be together again and have fun together again in the future.
-->'''Calli:''' ''[[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ND7LUoN4KHE reading a superchat]]]'' "This is my first akasupa and I'm giving it after watching a clip of your early Kiara collabs, I'm glad you're friends now." ''[chuckles]'' What do you mean?! I love Kiara!
* BadassTeacher:
** She went into more detail on her day job after having a rough day, which caused her to act extremely goofy on stream to blow off stress. According to her, she teaches very young reapers how to swing their scythes. This is best seen during her English teaching stream, where she is shown being very effective at teaching.
** After her chat had spammed an emote to her ire, she removed it and issued a punishment very smiliar to that a teacher would give to a misbehaving student: the fanbase as a whole would have to write a 30 page essay in Times New Roman 12 point single space font on why they are being punished and why they deserve to have the emote back.
* BareYourMidriff: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9H07Z-ZOOM Her second outfit debut]] has her reveal an outfit that exposes her bellybutton.
* BeneathTheMask: She tries to present herself as a cute and graceful reaper-in-training before literally saying [[PrecisionFStrike fuck it]] during her first rap and revealing what she calls her real self. While she still tries to maintain her image, it tends to falter when she gets annoyed.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Despite her friendly demeanor most of the time, she can and will demonstrate why she is a reaper when incredibly focused/tilted if her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' playthrough is anything to go by.
* BilingualBonus: Her music often features a mix of English and Japanese lyrics. In particular is her debut hit "Excuse My Rudeness But Could You Please RIP" which uses the word "DIE" in place of the Japanese word "dai", such as in "Sugoi DIE-suki!" [[labelnote:Translation]]"I really love you!"[[/labelnote]] and "Donmai DIE-joubu!" [[labelnote:Translation]]"Don't worry, it's fine"[[/labelnote]]. In addition, she also raps, "You reap what you fucking SEISO" [[labelnote:Explanation]]"Seiso" literally means "clean" and "tidy", and is a descriptor for Japanese idol singers who are considered "pure" and "wholesome". Here, Calli is using "Seiso" in place of "sow".[[/labelnote]]
* BirdsOfAFeather: Calli and Suisei greatly admire each other for their respective singing prowess, with Calli mentioning on ''WebVideo/TrashTaste'' that Suisei is one of her two favourite senpai (the other being [=AZKi=]), and Suisei affectionately replying to Calli's chat encouragements with "I love you!". Their original songs also sometimes touch upon the same subject, with "GHOST" and "Red" both expressing the feeling of making a lasting impression in the [=VTuber=] scene.
* BrownNote: Invoked several times.
** She owns a recorder and refers to it as Hell's own instrument, showcasing exactly what she means by playing it deliberately badly. [[SpringtimeForHitler It ended up having the opposite effect from what was intended]], and because her fans loved it she ended up having to play it for the entirety of a multi-hour superchat reading stream because she promised a note for every donation. She also sarcastically suggested learning streams for it, which [[ColbertBump caused recorders to]] ''[[ColbertBump sell out]]'' [[ColbertBump on Amazon Japan]].
** For the purposes of track mixing, she had also ordered a harmonica and several kazoos, all of which she enthusiastically plays terribly, exclaiming how much she hates it before continuing to play. At the time of writing, she is also waiting for a slide whistle and an Aztec death whistle.
** She has mentioned wanting to sample [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calliope_(music) an actual calliope]] in order to produce "demented circuscore" music.
* ButtMonkey: If Gura isn't the one getting this trope, then it's certainly Calli. Just like Gura, she also tends to be a frequent victim of tease and misfortune mainly because of her poor gaming skills. Her streams also frequently have technical issues, and as mentioned in CringeComedy below, her main source of humor tends to be her being put in embarassing situations much to her dismay.
* CallBack:
** During the ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' collab between the 5th Gen and EN members, Botan says "Excuse me, but did the reaper just RIP?" after noticing that Calli had been killed, referencing Calli's debut track. Polka would also recite the name of the song whenever she had the opportunity to kill Calli.
** Her "date" with viewers gets rudely interrupted by ''ComicBook/GhostRider'' towards the end.
** In Calli's new song, "Off With Their Heads", a variation of the hook of "Dead Beats" is brought back. She does it again in "The Grim Reaper Is A Live Streamer", cementing it as something of a motif for Mori.
** Whenever an instance occurs where Mori has to say, "it's like that", she almost immediately quotes the beginning of "Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP?"'s chorus, as that particular line is the first verse's segue to it.
* CaptainErsatz: Despite its liberal use, Calli had a bit of a scare when her audience told her that [[DisneyOwnsThisTrope Ghost Rider belongs to the House of Mouse]]. She then tried to play it off by saying the image she used of him in a previous stream was her own original character, and her chat suggested names such as Ghoul Driver or Gou Strider.
* CatchPhrase: She has so many that she decided to make a [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkYpz40UYAApi-L?format=jpg&name=large BINGO card]] out of them.
* CharacterDevelopment: Off-stream, Calli and Kiara are great friends. On-stream, however, their antics tell a slightly different story. At the start, Calli was very much a Harsh-type {{Tsundere}} towards Kiara. Most evident in their first duo ''Minecraft'' collab where Kiara's bombardment advances would constantly draw out Calli's harsher side. Fast-forward two months later, Calli is now more of a ''Sweet''-type tsundere, singing more praises of Kiara and treating her much more kindly on-stream (though the sexual advances and intimate suggestions still make Calli cringe).
* CigarChomper: She mentions that she smokes on very select occasions and, when she does, it's with cigars. It's something she picked up from Papa Reaper.
* ClosetGeek: Or at least as much as one can be in an idol agency full of anime girls who play videogames on the regular; this [[LadySwearsaLot foul-mouthed]], [[TheDissTrack fire-spitting]] reaper turns out to be quite a fan of Tabletop RPG's. Specifically with an attachment to [[TabletopGame/OldWorldOfDarkness World of Darkness]].
* CloudCuckooLander: Downplayed. As she's gotten more comfortable with streaming as well as just happier in general, she's started opening up more to her audience as well as letting her natural personality out more, and it turns out that she is ''very'' strange in terms of her sense of humor and tastes. It's frequently joked about that she's actually always some level of drunk due to how loopy she can act, even on an average day that is relatively stress-free.
* TheComicallySerious: She's the most straight-laced of her group, taking on the role of a straight man when in group streams.
* ContraltoOfDanger: She has a deep voice, especially when she raps.
* CoolBigSis: Gives off this vibe to Gura, most evident in their ''Minecraft'' collabs, happily explaining stuff like her audio recording process to her.
* CowardlyLion: Despite liking horror aesthetic in games (her favorite series is ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' and one of her favorite games is ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'') she does not do well when playing actual horror games such as ''VideoGame/{{Phasmophobia}}''. She still tries to put on a brave face throughout such experiences and goes through with them but it is clear that the fear starts getting to her rather quickly. [[https://youtu.be/WgX_zLgzYSc?t=127 She will try to deny it, but once something really scares her]], her screams can rival [[CuteButCacophonic Gura's]].
* CringeComedy: Her main source of humor revolves around how much she can (intentionally or otherwise) embarrass herself, such as by saying things in a very stilted manner while cursing at herself under her breath for how off-putting she feels that her audience would find her. For example, her second Japanese learning stream included a segment of attempting Duolingo for her less fluent viewers. It turned into what was basically a PSA on why it's not a good way to learn Japanese because she slowly seemed to lose her sanity at how painfully awful the lessons were until finally switching to a JLPT N5 mock test.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Pink hair and eyes.
* CuteButPsycho: It isn't immediately obvious, but she makes it quite clear that, as a reaper, she enjoys killing and views not being allowed to do so as a sacrifice she has to make to be an idol. Her raps make this especially clear.
* CuteClumsyGirl: She tries to remain calm and collected most of the time, but has a lot of technical issues at the user level while streaming (at least early on) due to not being used to it. This causes her a lot of embarrassment. Adding to her clumsiness in later streams is her drinking habit, which has made her quite a bit more accident prone than her peers.
* CutenessProximity: Animals and children easily distract her, particularly in ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}''. She once forgot what the gang was doing to chase after a bunny and a child Pigman twice in the same stream. She also wants a cat when she moves to her new home.
* DamnYouMuscleMemory: While playing ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', she earned enough money to upgrade her booth, letting her control the deny/confirm stamps with the tab key instead of manually with a mouse. Not being used to this earned her a citation for accidentally turning away a cleared entrant.
* DCupDistress: While the shapeliest of the group, she has said on stream that she envies Ina and Gura's slimness, suggesting some level of unhappiness with the fact; this mostly stems from her sense of fashion, stating that most clothes she wants to wear would look better on a slimmer figure rather than her buxom self.
* DeepSouth: She claims to have spent some time there and while her accent isn't prominent, there are times when she gets excited and will [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-xlSceYnZ4 slip into it.]]
* DemonicPossession: Claims to be "borrowing" the body she presents herself with.
* {{Determinator}}:
** Watching her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' streams reveals that she is not good at it (she admits as such) and plays it with a controller, further making it hard. This doesn't stop her from doggedly trying and trying again until succeeding.
** Calli absolutely refused to let a terrorist attack kill her guard friends in ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', so she [[SaveScumming kept playing December 19th over and over again]] until she absolutely killed all three attackers before they could kill any of the guards.
* TheDitz: Aside from a lack of awareness in games, she [[https://youtu.be/BRFbVM6lVeM almost dropped 30K USD on a penthouse suite due to misreading the price listing.]]
* DoesNotLikeSpam: She spends part of her debut stream saying how much she hates cantaloupes and stressing that her name isn't pronounced like it. [[note]]Ca-lie-o-pee, rather than cally-ope[[/note]]
* DontFearTheReaper: Despite her appearance and how she portrays herself in her raps, Mori is friendly to everyone and does care for the wellbeing of humans. The times she got [[MoneyMauling huge superchat donations]] she expressed everyone to "take care of yourselves. It's not your time yet!"
* DontYouDarePityMe: PlayedForLaughs. When playing ''Clubhouse Games 51'', she made it abundantly clear that she didn't want Amelia to go easy on her, despite admitting that she's not that good at video games.
* DrinkingGame: She has hosted several with her viewers, usually imposing limits on herself so she doesn't imbibe a dangerous amount. Typically she will have rules that fall in line with whatever game she's playing, but sometimes she will host "secret" drinking games, where the rules are known only to her, and only revealed when her viewers trigger them.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: As her "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYXvKBZmBU0 A Way Out]]" collab with Kiara shows, Calli can be very reckless behind the wheel. She has no problem ''running people over'' for fun, and attempted to drive a car at high speed ''in reverse''.
* DrugsAreBad: The one time she tried "the Devil's Salad", she had a panic attack and lit her hair on fire. Ever since, she has abstained from it.
* ElectiveBrokenLanguage: Employs this trope in her own English during her ''VideoGame/KeepTalkingAndNobodyExplodes'' collab with Korone. Knowing Calli's implied background in teaching English, she's fluent in YouNoTakeCandle and is familiar with Korone's GratuitousEnglish way of describing things. The result is surprisingly more successful bomb defusals than even the members of the Japanese branch that played the game ''in their native language.''
-->'''Kiara''': [[IntelligibleUnintelligible HOW DOES SHE GET THOSE EXPLANATIONS LMAO]]
* EpicFail:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbwpKNYJfjs She once]] ordered a pair of kazoos, thought they didn't work, then ordered another one in the hopes that they would send her one that "worked." She furiously complained to the chat at the start of a stream about it, only for chat to spam that she had been playing it wrong the whole time (Kazoos aren't meant to have a ton of air blown through them; they're supposed to be hummed). After she tried it and was in complete disbelief, she got a bit down on herself over ordering the third one.
---> '''Calli''': Hum into the Kazoo? Well fine hold on then. ''[Squeak]'' AH? ''[Kazoo noises]'' WHAT THE FUUU WHAAAAT? ''[More Kazoo noises]'' AHHH! I hate this. I hate it so much. I ORDERED ANOTHER KAZOO! Come on man...
** In a collaboration stream, she had brought out a beer to drink while playing. Due to not having a bottle opener as well as not wanting to leave her PC in order to find a suitable tool in her kitchen, she ended up slamming it against the table in a vain attempt to open it, causing it to spill out and damage her table in the process.
** In order to celebrate a subscriber milestone with members, she had also purchased higher end liquor than what she normally gets; a properly corked bottle of wine and a bottle of champagne, which she actually mistook for sparkling wine. Her initial attempts to open the wine ended in failure, as it became clear she had never used a corkscrew before and somehow caused her hand to bleed while opening it, and, having never opened champagne, surprised herself when she popped the cork and nearly spilled it.
** During a livestream with Kiara, Calli recalls a tale about treating Kiara to a fancy penthouse suite. She spent two weeks talking with the hotel staff, making accommodations, and was literally a signature away from buying it all when she thought "wait, something's wrong here". She looked over the price again; turns out she misread the yen total (thinking the suite was $3,000 USD) and realized that it was ''ten times'' as much as she thought she was going to pay for. Thankfully, she was able to back out of the purchase.
* EpicFlail: Her favorite method of dealing death. Kiara correctly deduced it against the alternative answers of PianoDrop and heatstroke by reasoning that this was the most aggressive option.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Besides the whole thing with Kiara, Calliope has unintentionally managed to charm several of her senpai, including Suisei (who called her "cool and beautiful") and Polka (who greatly admires her penchant for vulgarity).
[[/folder]]
[[folder:F-L]]
* {{Fangirl}}:
** She's a fangirl for multiple senpais from the Japanese branch but specifically cites Kiryu Coco as her biggest inspiration for joining hololive EN and models her own hard work ethic after hers. She also mentions being a fan of the singers of hololive, but explictedly mentions Suisei when she was being interviewed by Trash Taste's podcast.
** Her favorite list of rappers is too long to list off, but she has a special appreciation for Music/SnoopDogg to the point ''where she owns a Daikimakura/body pillow of him.'' Because she doesn't smoke the "Devil's Salad", she claims he is responsible for the smoke effect in her stream.
** [[https://youtu.be/cn7XWZmkaPU When pressed about her favorite Youtube content creators]], she mentioned that she was a big fan of LetsPlay/{{Critikal}} and would like to work on something with him, even if it would be on brand for him to make fun of her the entire time. She mentions being a fan of his for at least a decade, and even covered [[https://youtu.be/Q6ehybzS9vc 2019 Guy]] on an unarchived stream.
** In terms of games, she has quite a few but nothing can top her love of ''VideoGame/Persona3''. Due to Atlus' restrictions on streaming as well as Cover's need to obtain permissions for broadcasting content she is not allowed to stream it, but it's such an important game to her that she is willing to dedicate multiple streams to begging Atlus to grant her broadcast permission.
* FamousLastWords: While [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vGeLYci-G4 fooling around with a TNT launcher]] in ''Minecraft'' with Gura, Ame, and Ina, Calli volunteered as a test subject.
-->'''Ina:''' Any last words?\\
'''Calli:''' Ummm... This is [[{{Irony}} ironic]]. There you go.
* TheFerryman: Calli says she knows of the Ferryman. It's usually a guy named Steve, but she says he mainly keeps to himself.
* FourIsDeath: Alluded to when she notes that four is her favorite number [[https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1303838433127747584 after her twitter got 44,400 followers]]. Her birthday's on 4/4.
* FriendToAllChildren: Her steady day job before joining Hololive is teaching little reapers, which while very stressful she does enjoy. Upon seeing a child Pigman in the Nether of ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', she began gushing about how cute it was, talking to it, and chasing it, claiming her teacher instincts had activated because of interacting with her students at school. Her use of the F-word instead of the actual word is because she found out children watch her streams, which amuses Gura. For much of the time in the Nether she wonders aloud where the parents and teachers of the Baby mobs are.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: During a drawing stream she mentions and apologizes for a [[Comicbook/GhostRider skeleton on a motorcycle]] driving by and causing a lot of background noise. She mentions this happens at around the same time every day.
* FunnyForeigner: Invoked with her approach to anime memes. When asked to deliver her best [[OneeSama "Ara ara~"]] she pronounced each individual letter, delivering a robotic "A-R-A-A-R-A". She also ended up pronouncing [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders "Yare yare daze"]] with English phonetics, turning it into "Yair yair days".
* GargleBlaster:
** Aside from drinking 95% Spirytus on-stream as part of a punishment for speaking English during a Japanese-only review session, she has been on the receiving end of this during her time attending live concerts.
---> '''Calli:''' I had ordered a red wine... but if someone told me that it was grape juice filtered with toilet water I would not have noticed a difference.
** One of her DrinkingGame conditions while playing ''VideoGame/AoOni'' was to take a sip of "Oni Koroshi" everytime she successfully hid from a monster inside a closet. She immediately recoiled from how bad it tasted.
* GirlsLoveChocolate: Kiara shares that, during their trip together to Hokkaido, Calli would come up to her over the course of the trip and ask for some of her German chocolate (Ritter Sport) to the point where Kiara wasn't able to eat any of it. Not that Kiara minded because she didn't crave for any like she expected and found Calli's newfound love for German chocolate to be very cute.
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: There's a few teddy bears on her bed.
* GracefulInTheirElement:
** One of the few times she isn't a NervousWreck is when she is rapping: not only is she a good singer, but her raps allow her to exude confidence and bravado that she struggles to maintain otherwise.
** She has noted that she is not the most competent at many video games, barring a few she grew up with so that there is some transferrable skill. This is evident during her playthrough of ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot4ItsAboutTime'', as she is able to get through it much more easily than other games she's played due to being a franchise veteran. She is also, by her own admission, decent at ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'', but not as good at other fighting games (and even then, only with a fight stick).
** Her experience with ''TabletopGame/HunterTheVigil'' lets her explain the system and guide her gen-mates through character creation in a very comprehensible manner -- a remarkable difference compared to her awkwardness in her Meme Review episode 3 days ago.
* GratuitousJapanese: By virtue of living in the underworld directly below Japan, she does know the language, but only at a conversational level, and cannot read kanji all that well. A few of her typical responses or reactions to things will be Japanese words or phrases that she finds particularly fun to say, with "naruhodone" [[labelnote:Translation]]a polite way of saying "I see" or "I understand"[[/labelnote]] being a noted favorite of hers.
* TheGrimReaper: Well, she is his apprentice, anyway.
* HasAType: She has stated that her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeE2rQlNZbQ physical preferences in men trend toward the shorter side]], offhandedly mentioning Critikal as a reference. This isn't a hard and fast rule for her (her audience has made jokes about cutting their own legs off so she would like them more, which she says wouldn't work) as she still prefers a humble and kind personality above everything, but being short helps.
* HaveIMentionedIAmADwarfToday: She constantly and insistently mentions being Death, living in the underworld as such.
* HellBentForLeather: Wears a cape [[CoatCape styled like a leather jacket]] with SpikesOfVillainy over her shoulders. As for the Hell part, well... check out her job description.
* HeroicBSOD:
** Rather frequently due to viewer generosity:
*** She had a legendary breakdown on her first gaming stream ever because a Canadian ([[BatmanGambit actually a Chinese person who donated in 500 dollars in Canadian dollars just to start a red superchat war]]) dropped 500 CD on a red superchat that started a massive chain of similar donations (mostly by actual Canadians), and she couldn't believe people would actually give her that much money.
*** It happened again in the next stream where superchat was enabled, as her attempt to apologize for having to private her previous video thanking her fans for the earlier superchats was continuously delayed by an even bigger [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mX1Pr9JRDIQ superchat war erupting between America and Canada that made her around ten thousand dollars in about 20 minutes]]. She ended up crying from the shock.
----> '''Calli:''' Please take care of yourselves first.
*** This happened again during her 400k Subscriber party stream. It got so bad she decided to block the superstream donations at 1 hour and 5 minutes... but then it turned out that it wasn't working correctly or she accidentally turned it on again. Meaning that a stream of donations started going in when she wasn't looking. Cue her going from smug to panicked scrambling as she tried to turn it off properly again.
** She once forgot how Glory Kills worked for a few seconds in ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' on a Cacodemon (despite doing Glory Kills constantly and being her favorite part of the game) due to the stress and confusion, then realizing her mistake and ranting at herself for a while afterwards while calling herself an idiot.
---> '''Calli:''' I deserved to die for that.
** After mentioning that her streaming schedule revolves mostly around her standard day job (meaning once she's done streaming she's finished all her work for the day) she starts talking about how she relaxes and unwinds, only to actually stop, ask herself what she actually does for fun, and stops talking for about a minute as she has an existential crisis before saying she should really find something to do for herself and take her mind off working.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation:
** Despite being regarded as the hardest working member as well as being fairly skilled in everything she's done (art, animation, and music), she constantly sells herself short and thinks she isn't anything special, something she acknowledged in an ESL teaching stream when asked if she liked herself and her response was a shrug followed by a hesitant "I don't... hate myself." It's to the point where she has incorporated it into lyrics on her EP as well as writing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYu3PvRPZR8 an entire song]] about her own insecurities.
--->''Reaper Or Rapper?'' lyrics: ''I lowered all your expectations and I'll tank 'em again/because I like to diss myself along with all of my friends'' \\
''Dead Beats'' lyrics: ''Calliope Mori on this goddamn mic!/I don't want your fucking money, I just want your life!/I'm filling syllables with curse words because I am an amateur!/Everybody likes...self...deprecating...rap...I'm gonna stop. Like, I got nothing. I'm so tired, man...''
** She's also usually the first to admit that she's not good at video games, such as when Gura jokingly called her out on "hid[ing] behind the 'I'm Calliope Mori, I'm bad at video games!'", to which Calli responded with "Don't be rude, I ''know'' I'm bad at video games!", or when she was playing ''Clubhouse Games 51'' with Amelia and credited moments where she was doing good to [[DontYouDarePityMe Amelia going easy on her]].
** Goes full-circle in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8Q-smqaUgA guh]]'', where her self-deprecating tendencies are ironically turned into a BadassBoast: no matter how her haters try to insult her, it's bound to fail because she's probably already acknowledged that aspect and made fun of it herself!
--->''Try again, I'm wishing you well, but you will '''never''' roast me better than I roast myself!''
* HipHopRap: Prepared a rap song for her debut, and improvised another afterwards. She released her songs regularly for the first week after her debut and plans on having at least one new song a month.
* HonorBeforeReason: During her playthrough of ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', she absolutely refuses to trust the EZIC agents, even burning up $1000 given as a gift that would've allowed her family to afford both food and medicine.
* HumanityEnsues: She [[DemonicPossession obtained]] a human body as part of becoming a vtuber which comes with drawbacks such as being able to get sick, needing human medication, and requiring sleep and nourishment.
* IAmNotYourFather: Despite Ollie and surprisingly enough, her viewers', insisting otherwise, she constantly has to remind them that she indeed is not "dad". However, she is prone to letting it slide on occasion.
* IfItsYouItsOkay: Inverted on one occasion, when Kiara starts getting giddy at the prospect of seeing Calli naked.
-->'''Calli:''' I don't know why you're so worried about those kinds of things. It's just a body.
-->'''Kiara:''' You don't... so, you don't mind if I see your naked body?
-->'''Calli:''' I mean... if it's in the right context, right? When you go to places like an onsen, no one cares. Right?
-->'''Kiara:''' ''*starts getting excited*''
-->'''Calli:''' HOLD ON! Because it's you—hold on a minute—because it's you though, I might actually have a problem.
* INeedAFreakingDrink: Frequently, due to either exasperation at dealing with Kiara or frustration/embarrassment at herself. This seems to be primarily why she keeps a bottle of cheap red wine on hand at all times.
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: She is prone to saying some ''very'' suggestive things without a second thought or ruminating on the possible interpretations.
--> '''Kiara:''' "The only way to stop me (from winning this wheelchair balancing minigame) is to seduce me."
--> '''Calli:''' [[https://youtu.be/9groVX1d9Rw "Hey, Kiara...unzip your pants?"]]
* InsistentTerminology: She has her terms and she often sticks to them, even when they're odd. For example, calling herself "your boy" [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Guzma]]-style, always calling her beers "cold ones" even when it gets awkward, and calling the [=PogChamp=] emote "[[MundaneMadeAwesome Champion of the Pog]]".
* InsultOfEndearment: Tends to call Kiara "Kusotori" (Japanese for "shit bird"), which out of context sounds like an insult, but the two are VitriolicBestBuds at worst. They are good friends, even spending a day together at the spa, it's just that Kiara [[TheTease likes messing with Calli]] and [[TheGadfly has a tendency to get on her nerves]]. When Polka started imitating Calli and using the word, Kiara cheerfully but firmly told her that [[HypocriticalHeartwarming Calli is the only one allowed to call her that]].
* InterruptedByTheEnd: [[https://youtu.be/BQUnJTQnQHQ?t=6011 Once cut herself off]] by mistiming her own outro song.
* {{Irony}}:
** Even though she is a Grim Reaper, she tends to either A) be the first one to die when playing with others or B) almost never get a chance to be the "killer" in AsymmetricMultiplayer games. This happens so frequently that Gura [[https://youtu.be/Pb3sw6akp8Y?t=142 lampshades this trend]] during a group playthrough of ''VideoGame/{{Phasmophobia}}'':
--->'''Gura:''' It's kinda ironic how Calli always dies first, even though she's Death. ''[laughs]''
** As an [[TheGrimReaper incarnation or deity of death]] that totes a massive scythe, many expected her to have a BadAss, [[TheBaroness dominating]] personality. She does come off that way in [[GracefulInTheirElement most of her raps]], but that aside, she's more in the "lovable and kind-hearted dork [[PaperTiger trying and utterly failing to present herself]] as a cool edgy reaper" territory. Considering that she is a fan of gap moe, this is very likely intentional.
* JapanesePoliteness:
** Lampshaded in her debut song "Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP?", where one of the lines calls out how weird it is that she's rapping in formal Japanese speech.
** An odd example given she is part of Hololive English, but during her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' stream she would repeatedly apologize to the demons she was slaying, all the while calling them Sir.
** Subverted when she actually speaks Japanese, as she defaults to more casual speech despite attempting to communicate in ''keigo'' when speaking to those whom she respects.
* JumpScare:
** On the EN Minecraft server, Ame's PPP tower has a monster spawner. While using the tower for fishing, Calli would use the monster spawner to get some XP. She pressed it 3 times and jumped in surprise every time because she wasn't used to it.
** During the same session, when she noticed that Amelia had begun giving Ollie and Moona a tour of the EN server, she unintentionally caused Ollie to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ga9Dm_ZRwc scream like a banshee]] when she showed up.
* JustFriends: Calliope does like Kiara as a friend, but she always shoots down any attempts to go past that.
--> '''Kiara:''' We're [Kiara and Marine] just friends, Calli. I want to make it clear we're just friends, okay?
--> '''Calliope:''' ''[cheerfully]'' As are we.
* KleptomaniacHero: Calli admits that her absolute favorite thing do to in video games is being able to steal everything that isn't nailed down.
* TheKlutz: She can't ever seem to start a stream without some sort of accident happening, technical difficulties or otherwise. [[ButtMonkey Or both at the same time]].
* TheLadette: Despite her own fashion sense and desire to be seen as "cute," her tastes, actions and manner of speaking make her out to be the most masculine of the EN group and hololive as a whole. While she is unapologetically herself in this regard, she has stated that she dislikes the term "tomboy," especially when used to describe herself.
* LadySwearsALot: She frequently drops as many swears as Coco does. Right down to {{Cluster F Bomb}}s. Despite her efforts to maintain proper language, it is common to listen to her cursing on streams.
* LastNameBasis: DownplayedTrope. While it's not that she ''never'' calls her by first name, she tends to primarily refer to, and address, Amelia as "Watson".
* LoveYouAndEverybody: After tweeting out an image of a birthday shrine for Amelia, Calli's fans started poking fun at her saying that she's cheating on Kiara, with Kiara endorsing the sentiment. [[https://youtu.be/KyFJl_6nFbc?t=4276 Calli's response to people accusing her of cheating was to say you can tell your friends you love them without it being romantic.]]
--> '''Calli:''' People saying that stuff about Amelia, too...LISTEN! You can love your friends! Just don't make it weird.

* MadnessMantra: [[https://youtu.be/zioPpWvjhKg "Atlus, please let me play Persona 3"]].
* MarriedToTheJob: [[https://youtu.be/mGnKjLhQV2s?t=4591 Her response to the ol' "will you marry me" question]].
* MeaningfulName:
** "Mori" is [[GratuitousLatin Latin]] for "to die" befitting a reaper. She adds more wordplay into her SigningOffCatchphrase "I'm Mori, I hope you remember me!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]The famous saying is ''memento mori'' -- "remember that you will die one day."[[/labelnote]]
** "Calliope" can be written in Japanese as "美声" [[labelnote:Pronunciation]]"kariope" or "bisei"[[/labelnote]], which means "beautiful voice", as befitting a singer. It is also the name of the [[TheMuse Greek Muse]] who presides over epic poetry, in addition to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calliope_(music) a type of instrument]].
* MomentKiller: Not Calli herself, but Ghost Rider has made it a habit to interrupt her audience "dates" in order to hit on her.
* MoneyMauling: Her audience will engage in what can be considered psychological warfare by sending her large donations and either joke messages (such as pretending to buy recorders or concert tickets from her) or genuine messages of support. Due to her confidence and stress issues, she almost always responded to such generosity by either panicking or crying due to a feeling of not having done enough to deserve it. While she has gotten better about accepting such messages of support, she has stated that all she's done is gotten better at hiding her internal panic whenever someone gives her a large donation.
* MotorMouth: Has a very fast style of talking. Considering rap is her strongest musical style, this is more than justified.
* MustHaveCaffeine: Averted. When asked about what kind of other things she drinks, she explained that any kind of caffeine and sugary liquids like soda don't mix well with her horrible nerves, digestive system, and energy problems, doing things that go from wildly throwing off her sleep schedule to making her sick. She did use energy drinks when she was younger but can't handle them anymore.
* MyEyesAreUpHere: Said word for word towards Kiara once during their first collab.
* NervousWreck:
** ''Very'' prevalent in her debut stream and a constant element of her solo streams, especially if she is sober. The only time she ''isn't'' this is when she sings her rap songs. Her nerves are even worse if she's playing a video game, where she quickly earned a reputation for her cute panicking and fumbling. She has explained this as a deep fear of disappointing people, but has slowly started to gain her confidence when noting that she still maintains steady viewership regardless of what she does.
** After explaining that the "smoke" was coming from her Snoop Dogg Daikimura and not her because she doesn't partake in "that substance", she elaborated on the NoodleIncident of setting her hair on fire that the reason why was because her first try of the "Devil's Salad" made her have a [[FreakOut full blown panic attack and is why she never touched the stuff again]].
* NeverSayDie: Zigzagged. In an attempt to evade Youtube's demonetization and shadowbanning, she has to come up with various other ways to express the concepts of killing and murder without actually using the words; her go-to tends to be "slay" as well as the overly literal "end human life." She also has to be careful to avoid violating Japanese censorship to sidestep legal issues with her songs' lyrics. However, in many cases she only censors the written lyrics, while saying what she actually means. For example, in "失礼しますが、RIP♡ || “Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP?", despite both the song title and the subtitles of the music video saying RIP, what she actually says translates as "Excuse my rudeness, but could you please die?". She also outright says "Korusu no koto ga tanoshii", which means "killing is fun", and "Murder is so fucking kawaii".
* NiceGirl: If you ask Fubuki, who met her in real life at least once, she'd say that Calliope is an angel. For her part, she says that she'd like to think she's one but doesn't want to presume such a thing.
* NoodleIncident:
** When asked about one of her most memorable "drunk" moments, she confessed to lighting her hair on fire.
** Before she started singing the soundtrack to ''{{WesternAnimation/Shrek}}'' in her 800k karaoke stream, Calli mentions that Shrek is currently ''banned in the Underworld.''
* NoJustNoReaction: When [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HjX0xICUvs a commenter asked her]] "What if you kissed Death-sensei?", she became so disgusted by the idea that she had to step away from her computer to get some mouthwash.
-->'''Calli:''' That's my ''teacher''! ''[disgusted noises]'' I need to go gargle ''salt water'' or something, be right back!
* NoPronunciationGuide: Calliope's name is pronounced "kuh-LYE-uh-pee" in English, but the way her name is written in Japanese - かりおぺ - makes the pronunciation "KAH-ree-oh-peh". Thankfully, she also answers to "Calli". Ollie pronounces her as "Cal-lee-O-pee", likely unaware of how it's supposed to be pronounced.
* NowWhat: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-HtFtYGTV8&t=4353s Discussed during one of her Wine Parties]]. She admits to wanting to get to the top in several things, and as such becoming TheWorkaholic that she is. She then realizes that she is pretty high up now and at this point does not know what she will do when she is at the top. She gets a small HeroicBSOD from this realization.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: How she tends to address instances of perverted behavior, by acting like she has no understanding of the topic or ComicallyMissingThePoint.
* OnlySaneWoman: Thus far, the only member of Hololive EN who never resorts to lewdness. When all the other girls are making subtle or not so subtle perverted jokes, Calli always feigns ignorance and stays out of it.
* OverlyLongGag: After mentioning from time to time that she wants to play ''VideoGame/Persona3'' on stream, she then dedicates ''an entire hour-and-a-half stream'' to begging Creator/{{Atlus}} to let her do so.
* PaperTiger: She certainly looks intimidating enough with her massive SinisterScythe and her spiky [[HellBentForLeather leather cape]], and is a death deity (in training), and she certainly tries to project the façade of a reaper who loves killing people... emphasis on "'''tries'''". It's readily apparent to anyone who watches her for even 5 minutes that she is a very gentle soul. Readily apparent in her ''VideoGame/StoryOfSeasons: Pioneers of Olive Town'' stream, where she [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIG1J5ZJSDM spends several minutes]] [[CutenessProximity gushing over the selection of ingame pets]] and professing her love for cats, spends most of her money on a Maine Coon... and proceeds to name it "[[DeathbringerTheAdorable Destroyer]]".
--> '''Youtube commenter''': ''Calli's Brain: "Oh God, I'm acting way too adorable, these animals are way too irresistable and I'd be completely remiss if I don't buy a Maine Coon........... think, think.....''
-->''AH!!! If I name the big kitty Destroyer, that'll make up for how I'm absolutely gushing over how much I love him, right? [[BlatantLies They definitely won't clip me being cute]] if I call him Destroyer. Genius."''
* PortmanteauCoupleName: InUniverse. She and Kiara are referred to as Takamori, which is even given this hashtag when they collab.
* PrecisionFStrike: After spending her debut stream trying to not to swear out loud, she pretends to be cutesy during her rap song before saying a perfectly timed ''fuck it''.
* {{Psychopomp}}: She became a [=Vtuber=] to collect souls and she's able to obtain the ones that were lost from [=TeeTee=].
* PunchClockVillain: After Kiara reacted badly to TheReveal and the ending of ''VideoGame/AWayOut'', Calli tried to cheer her up by pointing out that while [[spoiler:Vincent may have betrayed her]], Calli is still her friend and only kills her because it's her job (and because Kiara [[DeathIsCheap can come back from it]]).
* RagsToRiches: The primary reason she is so grateful and was taken aback by the aforementioned Superchat war was due to the opportunity presented to her because of it; she had been streaming off of a laptop from a self admittedly claustrophobic home, and in addition to streaming, works two other jobs; one as a freelancer and the other being a more stable position teaching "scythe-swinging lessons." Because of the generosity of her viewers, she is now in the process of upgrading her equipment, moving to a more spacious area suited for recording, and may be able to dedicate more time streaming now that she's quit her day job. [[note]]She claimed in the Christmas 2020 video that she'd quit scythe-swinging for good, and clarified in her Superchat-reading stream the following Sunday that this meant she was now streaming full-time.[[/note]]
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: A minor example. When Kiara posted a picture of food revealing that she and Calli had dinner together IRL, Calli remained in-character by explaining she resides in the part of the underworld that is directly below Japan.
* RecycledInSPACE: Not Calli herself but she's notable for staying in-character and maintaining {{Kayfabe}} more than any other member in hololive, leading to her giving an underworld twist to any discussion of life outside of streaming. e.g. Calli didn't just go to school, she went to ''reaper'' school. She doesn't just reside in Japan, she resides in ''underworld'' Japan. She even continued this when appearing away from the vtuber context as a guest on the WebVideo/TrashTaste podcast.
* RedOniBlueOni: Blue to Kiara's red. Calli is gloomy, sarcastic and introverted, while Kiara is bubbly, cheerful and outgoing. Their contrasting personalities make for great comedic interaction.
* TheResenter: She spoke about how she used to be this on ''Trash Taste'' in regards to idols. She looked at the idol industry and believed it was a bunch of manufactured success with the talent having everything handed to them while she was working hard at making music for a fraction of the recognition. It wasn't until she met and became friends with a few idols that she changed her mind and saw that they were working just as hard, if not harder, than she was and deserved their success.
-->'''Calli:''' [[https://youtu.be/tIU0xG-lXkQ?t=2210 I realized I was being a jealous little hoe.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder: S-Z]]
* SanitySlippage: During a track-making/sound sampling stream, she justified her erratic behavior as having lost her mind due to an incredibly stressful day in addition to her normal anxieties, and that acting strange helps regain her composure.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Gender inverted. There are times her screams during a horror game sound like they're coming from a very scared male person; some of the more panicked ones have been compared to [[WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry Tom's]].
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: She tried to end her first collab stream with Kiara the second she realized that she was getting JustForFun/{{Rickroll}}ed.
* SecurityCling: While not physically, during a group session of ''Phasmophobia'' she stuck incredibly close to Kiara, begging her not to leave her alone in the darkness.
* SelfAppliedNickname: She calls herself "your boy" when talking about herself in the third person to her audience; due to her affiliation with hip-hop culture, she's ''supposed'' to be saying "ya boy/ya boi," but has trouble with slang, making her come across as TotallyRadical at times.
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Zigzagged. While she does get easily embarrassed around things that are overtly sexual in nature, she doesn't regard nudity as such; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN6WW0jOel8 when talking about her spa date with Kiara,]] she mentioned wanting to take her to an onsen at least once. Kiara finds such places embarrassing, but Calli flat-out stated that she doesn't really mind being naked in front of other people since to her, "it's just a body." She slightly retracted her statement when realizing that it would be [[AbhorrentAdmirer Kiara]] who would see her naked, but would be fine with it so long as she didn't make it weird and dared Kiara to get naked in front of her next time they have a day trip such as this.
* ShapedLikeItself: When she can't figure out or remember the name for something, she will be overly literal in describing what it's supposed to be and name it as such; she has called Sora's mascot "Kuma(bear) Dude," her PC tower a "techtangle," and she named her character in ''VideoGame/GangBeasts'' "Burger Boss," as he's the boss of all burgers.
* TheSheriff: During her run of ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', she portrayed the border agent as one, speaking in a southern accent through most of the playthrough and wearing a personally stylized cowboy hat on her avatar. She has since acknowledged "Sheriff Calli" as their own character of sorts, as a way of disciplining her chat when they get out of line.
* SigningOffCatchPhrase: "I'm Mori, I hope you remember me!" followed by a hearty and deep ''"PEACE!"''
* SinisterScythe: Has one that's taller than she is.
* SkewedPriorities: When Amelia was showing Ollie and Moona around the EN ''Minecraft'' server, Moona ended up getting blown up by a Creeper just outside of Calli's house. Her initial reaction was to check if Adam Saddler's grave and Mr. Steeds were unharmed.
* SleepDeprivation: Has admitted that due to her very tight schedule, she very rarely gets more than 6 hours of sleep a night. It got to the point that during a collaboration stream for ''VideoGame/Overcooked2'' she had mentioned being up for 36 hours straight in order to try and finish a freelance project.
* SleepyHead: Thanks to her multiple stressful jobs, slightly older age than the other girls, love of wine, and anxiety problems, Calliope often exhausts herself and begins yawning and acting sleepy pretty soon after she starts streaming. She actually did fall asleep at least once during the first EN Minecraft collab. She once was convinced by her fans to skip reading superchats so that she could sleep despite feeling bad about it.
* SpecialGuest: On the 23rd episode of the ''WebVideo/TrashTaste'' podcast.
* SpikesOfVillainy: Her collar has a row of spikes lined alongside it as part of her reaper aesthetic.
* SpringtimeForHitler: In one stream where she gets tormented by yet another series of red superchats (100 USD or more), she starts playing the recorder poorly on purpose to the tune of her background music in order to get viewers to stop. This only ends up pulling in even more red superchats thanking her for the impromptu concert.
* StarvingArtist: From what little is known about her personal life, she embodied this. Despite being multi-talented, she is working two other jobs, barely making ends meet. Her living space was incredibly cramped (from her description it seemed even smaller than a normal studio apartment), with her "desk" seeming to be not much more than a small end table that she didn't even have a proper chair for and had to squat over to use. She also seems to have been living off cheap booze and fast food or instant curry for a while; the former by choice (as she can't taste the difference with expensive stuff) and the latter out of necessity. Only after she joined hololive was she finally able to afford some luxuries.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: Has this dynamic with [[LovableSexManiac Kiara]], playing the StraightMan to Kiara's wise guy, constantly shutting down or turning away the flirts and advances of the perverted phoenix.
* TakeThatCritics:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_M-6lkoi6L4 Off With Their Heads]]" is supposed to avert this, despite most of her listeners saying it is a diss track. Much to Calli's frustration, she intended the song to be tough love and motivational so that people listening would understand they need strength to follow their dreams. She went on to repeatedly explain it was never intended to be a diss at anyone in multiple streams to the point where she was so annoyed and depressed with the interpretation of the song being a diss track that she temporarily disabled her comments on the music video, apologized for it, and considers the audience misinterpreting her intended message to be one of her biggest failures in her lyric writing career.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8Q-smqaUgA guh]]" is a subversion of this. She has discussed in a few lyric dives that while the surface level interpretation was her making fun of her critics and basically not letting hateful comments get to her through a heavy dose of SelfDeprecation, she has several lines of the song which hint that beating yourself up over your work all the time as a defense mechanism is a toxic mindset in and of itself. She's staed that she had to learn to be proud as opposed to downplaying her own accomplishments just so that negative criticism won't affect her, and that her "dislikers" are people that are moreso to be pitied than actually fought against since their own mindset is probably born of some other negative aspect of their own lives.
* TearsOfJoy: Two instances, both of them the result of getting overwhelmed from being '''''showered''''' with a flurry of red super chats from her fans.
** The first instance was during her "Mad Father" gaming stream, where deadbeats from the US and Canada gave her at ''least'' '''$10,000''' dollars in a single night. (See HeroicBSOD above)
** The second instance was during her Endurance Stream to 1 Million Subscribers; around the 4 hour 22 minute mark she hit the 1 million goal, and as she took a moment to watch the 'rainbow' (the non-stop wave of superchats in the chat window) flying past, she sounded like she was mere seconds away from crying.
---> '''Calliope''': You guys are crazy...but you're also the best. I have the best fans...I wouldn't be here without all of you.
* TeamDad: Her calmer attitude as well as her deeper voice and tendency to sternly discipline her chat whenever they start acting up has given her the reputation as being a tough father; her chat will sometimes refer to Kiara as their mother, much to Calli's ire.
* ThatCameOutWrong:
** At the end of the song "Dead Beats", she (or rather, a cutesy version of herself) started singing "Deadbeats, jerk it now!". Her more serious self made her stop, since it sounded quite inappropriate, with the cutesy Calli trying to explain that she was referring to a jerky dance and not [[ADateWithRosiePalms the other thing]].
** During her debut stream, when it came time to show off her full Vtuber avatar:
---> '''Calli:''' Alright guys, how about we check out my full body. I will now show you my body. Wait.. wait hold on, hold on, nononono wait wait wait that isn't what-
** During the Halloween Secret Neighbour collab stream, she'd been having a particularly bad run of dying early in the rounds. Exasperated, Calli described her frustrations as a perpetual condition of hers, although the chat assumed she was talking about Death-Sensei, her teacher. Calli denied it after, claiming the chat was making it "weird."
---> '''Calli:''' What can I say, I'm attracted to death. Death and me are meant to be, listen. Either I'm killing folks or I'm getting killed. [[TeacherStudentRomance I'm in a dedicated relationship with death, I am.]]
** In one ''{{VideoGame/Minecraft}}'' stream, she crafts some storage chests and [[https://youtu.be/DS6AuBWkapg talks about how big they are]]. Her chat immediately ribbed her for it.
---> '''Calli:''' We want a lot of big chests. Only big chests allowed here. Lots of big ones. ...What? ''Shut up, chat, shut up!''
* TheyKilledKennyAgain: Despite being an incarnation of Death, Calli ironically has the tendency of being the first (or only) death in a lot of collaboration streams with cooperative games. In regards to her participation in the first ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' collaboration, the last match is particularly notable because it's the only one she actually survived.
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: She said she would only properly say "ara ara" after reaching one million subscribers. After reaching the sub goal, she '''finally''' [[https://youtu.be/d1l_JfQ34Lg delivers what was promised]], and in the most Calli way possible.
--> '''Calli:''' Ara ara~ ''[{{Beat}}]'' ...''bitch''.
* TimeAbyss: Claims to have existed since the beginning of time, or at least as long as things have been dying. Her official age is listed as "[[MathematiciansAnswer No]]". [[FridgeLogic Yet she somehow still has a specific birthday.]] [[note]]Presumably it is a date she chose for others to celebrate her birthday, similar to how Gura (who does have an actual birthday but has forgotten it) chose a day to celebrate her own. It could also be the birthday of the person whose body she is "borrowing"[[/note]]
* ToBeLawfulOrGood: Deciding moral dilemmas is the entire point of ''VideoGame/PapersPlease'', and the game presents a challenge with a recurring character named Jorji, who never actually has his documents in proper order without trying to pull something else like smuggling contraband in with him. However, he is a genuinely nice person who understands you are only doing your job, and is designed to make players feel sorry for him. When he became a wanted criminal, Calli stated that making the decision to detain him was the hardest moral choice she ever had to make in her life.
* TortureTechnician: [[https://youtu.be/G3zAKMFfilM?t=2338 Has offered to be one]] to help out in Kiara's "usual room" for re-education purposes.
* TotallyRadical: She tends to use dated slang in a very stilted manner (such as referring to herself as "your boy"), as she's both inhuman and ageless, so her communication skills with modern humanity leave something to be desired. It's not helped by the fact that, even when she does use modern slang, she's old enough that the meaning of some of it has changed, and she didn't know until her fans pointed it out [[note]]Most noteworthy would be her use of the word "yeet". While it is now primarily used to refer to throwing things, it also used to be used as an expression of approval, which is the usage Calli was familiar with, and most of her audience was not; this leads Gura of all people to correctly guess that Calli fears being labeled as a "Boomer", to which the latter reluctantly concedes[[/note]].
* TranquilFury: An EXTREMELY long series of frustrating deaths during one of her ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' streams that nearly made her late for her next collab slowly built her anger and stress while groaning and loudly complaining, until it [[RageBreakingPoint finally caused her to snap]], changing from her MotorMouth personality to dead silence and focus as she proceeded to tear apart every demon in her way. Fans were quick to call this "Reaper Mode".
--> '''Calli:''' ''[Afterwards: gasping for air]'' [[UnstoppableRage Sorry I had to show you that side of me chat.]]
* {{Tsundere}}: Type B. She is incredibly nice and sweet to both her viewers and fellow members ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXCEtOLIS-M although she can get snippy at times]]), with the exception of Kiara. She has pointed out there's no actual bad blood between the two of them, but it's mostly either out of exasperation in dealing with her antics as well as because she's so comfortable around Kiara that she feels she can give her shit and Kiara will never take it seriously. Calli also isn't above retweeting fanart shipping her with Kiara. Her "tsun" side also comes out whenever she raps, which she confesses is closer to the "real" her.
* TWordEuphemism: She makes note of attempting not to swear in her debut and refers to cantaloupes as being an "F-word piece of S-word". This is because she had found out that much of her family watches her streams, including her younger cousins and grandmother, and she doesn't want them to hear her natural penchant for profanity. This also extends to words she finds to be embarassing qualifiers for her such as "Boomer", which she tries (and fails) to pass off as "B-word" in front of an unimpressed Gura.
* VerbalTic: "Guh!" after drinking.
* VideoGameCaringPotential: Calli became ''very'' attached to protecting her son and Sergiu (one of the guards who she becomes friends with) in ''VideoGame/PapersPlease''. She goes far enough to [[SaveScumming reload]] the same days over and over again to make sure she does a good enough job to keep her son healthy and fed and keeps Sergiu alive from terrorists. Her efforts pay off as Sergiu informed her on December 20th that him and his wife were expecting, and planned on naming the child after Calli's inspector and were leaving a gift at her home before being shipped off to another post. The $100 he gave her was enough for her to seek out a... [[GreyAndGreyMorality not-"bad"]] ending.
-->'''Calli:''' That's the first bit of actual feel-good happiness I've felt playing this game.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Kiara. She helped narrate and animate her storybook intro, but spent a majority of the time in Kiara's debut stream denying they were friends, mostly due to Kiara being a phoenix and thus unable to die. A good example is during the first all-member [=HoloMyth=] Minecraft collab: she comforts Kiara with the other girls when Kiara gets self-deprecating over her various deaths in the collab while also laughing at her on the signs marking the various places she died. Calli's obviously the more prickly of the two, but she also often [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther lets her guard down and shows she really does care for and love Kiara]].
* WalkingTechbane: Despite tech issues being a constant in the branch, Calli seems to have the worst luck with such things. Aside from simple slip-ups like incorrect scene transition, her original streaming hardware became the source of a lot of trouble for her; she had crashed on multiple streams and for a while was completely unable to host collabs with it, causing others like Kiara to broadcast on her channel due to having better hardware. The laptop eventually gave up the ghost, [[https://twitter.com/moricalliope/status/1321650627898875904?s=19 but not without setting her back weeks of hard work.]] Ironically, this is in spite of its components. When Calli talked about her new workstation in a side-by-side comparison, it turned out that the laptop was actually very powerful for what it was, and neither Calli nor her audience could figure out why it was causing her so much trouble aside from incredibly bad luck.
* WallOfWeapons: Hanging above her bed is a board of medieval weapons.
* WhyWontYouDie: She responds to Kiara's advances in this way; Mori being a reaper, Kiara's inability to die annoys her to no end.
* AWildRapperAppears: Being an English-speaking rapper has given Calli a chance to appear on her senpai's singles such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGun2cWbPEM Watame]] and [[https://youtu.be/gEYadEYf3-o?t=1950 Rikka]].
* WineIsClassy: Inverted. She enjoys red wine, specifically the cheapest variety available (no more than 3 dollars) and [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial insisted]] that she drinks it properly out of a glass as opposed to straight from the bottle. She does admit it tastes like crap though. She later justified the choice, being that she genuinely cannot tell the difference between cheap and expensive wine, and that the cheaper varieties still have the desired effect of helping her relax.
* TheWorkaholic: Aside from streaming as part of hololive, she is noted to have two other jobs and keeps busy on a near constant basis, never really taking time for herself; according to her, this is because she had a goal when she was younger, but lost sight of it completely somewhere down the line and never stopped to consider why she was still working. This is also lampshaded in her first song where she calls herself a "workaholic business lady gettin' shit done." Later revealed that she doesn't relax at all because she simply doesn't know how to, and is always thinking about work.
-->'''Calliope:''' I tend to prefer [streaming after teaching] because then I get all my obligations out of the way and can put my feet up and draw, or...''[{{Beat}}]'' ''[to herself]'' What do I do for fun?
* {{Yandere}}:
** During their playthrough of ''VideoGame/AWayOut'', Kiara told Calli that an NPC wanted her number and was hitting on her (he was actually asking for Kiara's character's prisoner number). Without a second of hesitation, Calli wanted to kill him, which surprised even Kiara.
--->'''Kiara:''' He wants my number, Calli, he's hitting on me!
--->'''Calli:''' Let me kill him.
--->'''Kiara:''' Eh?! ''[flustered breathing]''
** During her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0b0EnEXzSs collaboration]] with Ina and Kiara for ''Puyo Puyo Tetris 2'', one of Kiara's chat members berated her skill since Kiara was constantly losing. Calli got [[SuddenlyShouting immediately upset]] over it.
--->'''Calli:''' Who is it?! I'll [[PrecisionFStrike fucking]] kill them!
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Hers is pink.
