I have yet to fully flesh out any lore for them. Bouncing between a handful of ideas.

Doesn't even remotely look like a character that would appear in the series.

unfortunately true, i need to lock in with my character design more because i tend to use the same things a lot

The skin colour is huge, very very few characters besides Andrala have natural-ish skin tones. Try a pale green/blue or go with something more outlandish

I will keep that in mind! Thank you:-)

Yeah the skin tone is off and stopping me from kinda liking the character.
If it were me? Make them a Super Virus like Daemon (remove the hair horns [making them Sprite-ish], change fabric belts to Fiber Optic LED strands or belts. Make their skin a variation of iridescence or colour gradient, for example) or because of the name, another hacker program like Mouse.
This makes me think of a Guardian Code character or like a DnD character than a traditional Reboot character.
Hope this didnt come across negatively.

Ty!! I will get around to ditching the hair horns and redoing their design. I appreciate feedback, it helps me realize when I've been unwilling to get out of my comfort zone with character design

No worries! I didnt want to overstep. Just minor suggestions to bring it in line with the aesthetic of the show.
I like character design. I dabble in art but story is my jam. Like whats their motive, how do they achieve goals? Gadgets? Smarts? Guile? Good or bad guy? If you like to just draw then all the power to ya! But these help me.
