Minnatsuki is the protagonist of Collective Unconscious. They were created on the YNOproject Discord server, back in December of 2021.
Description
Minnatsuki, as they appear as the player-controlled character, is a light-skinned human with messy dark-brown hair of moderate length. They wear a long-sleeved shirt, brown at the torso, with a lighter brown for the sleeves. On the shirt is an icon of a shape resembling a red eye. Below is likely a gray pleated skirt. They have dark red sandals and black footwear.
Minnatsuki is not intended to have one true canon appearance. Instead, they are intended to have their design interpreted by each individual as the individual sees it, whether it be through visual aspects such as their outfit or aspects of their identity such as their gender. This means that Minnatsuki could be male, female, nonbinary, or more.[note 1][1][2] This variable interpretation can be seen in-game with the book covers, which often have subtle differences from each other and Minnatsuki's appearance as the player character.
Minnatsuki is an explorer of the vast realm known as the spirit world. The precise nature of the means through which Minnatsuki accesses the spirit world—beyond the fact that the totem pole located within their sparsely decorated room is certainly involved—remains unclear. Like the protagonists of Yume Nikki and many of its fangames, Minnatsuki refuses to leave their room for unknown reasons. If an attempt is made to exit through the door without first crossing into the spirit world, Minnatsuki will simply shake their head instead.
