Vivi is one of the Audiovisual Identity Database's mascots, created by Nancer.

History

Vivi debuted on the old CLG server back on March 12, 2021 when her original image was uploaded by Nancer. She was the first AVID mascot concept, predating Ace. Her name was originally Cecilia, and then CLG-tan, and she sported branding closer to an unused CLG Wiki logo rebrand.

Vivi then had a resurgence near the end of September 2022 when users on the newly-formed AVID Discord server started making mascot concepts based on the then-upcoming AVID rebrand. Though Vivi had a lot of support behind her, it didn't really go anywhere by much until December 22, 2022, when Kris Valdespino (the designer for Ace and Jeff's look then) redrew CLG-tan to sport AVID branding. ZeroStar, a user on the AVID Discord server, proposed the name Vivi for her based on a comment about having mascots named after AVID, with "A" being Ace and "I" and "D" being two non-existent mascots named Izzy and Dan.
