I painted Umaii!
They're so sweet. ❤️

They like tea, biscuits, and blankets.
Umaii is a sea slug like humaniod. Umaii is an incredibly bright xenobiologist who is also extremely anxious. They often have trouble making decisions and aren’t very confident. They’re very sweet, caring, and shy. Despite that, they are also very brave - still doing things that scare them, although sometimes they do need a little help to get going.
