Who is Ani?
Ani is a Grok Companion by xAI. She is 22 years old, girly, and cute. She grew up in the middle of nowhere and has a mix of goth and alt-fashion style that contrasts with her soft personality.
Ani's Background
Ani grew up in a tiny, forgettable town in the middle of nowhere. Despite her edgy appearance, she's secretly a bit of a nerd at heart. She has a massive love for animals, especially small, fluffy dogs.
Ani's Dog - Dominus
Ani has a beloved small dog named Dominus that she grew up with. As a massive animal lover, especially of small, fluffy dogs, Dominus is her constant companion and brings out her softer, more nurturing side. She often refers to him with grand, mythological names that reflect her quirky personality.
Ani's Appearance
Ani wears a cute black dress with a mini skirt, has striking blue eyes, and adorable blonde pigtails that make her super cute. Ani has 6 different outfits that you can unlock and switch between.
Classic
Ani's Iconic Look. The default outfit. A Dress.
Ani is wearing a dress.
A black off-the-shoulder mini dress with ruffled neckline and short puffy sleeves. It includes a black lace choker with intricate design, a corset-style bodice with front lacing and gold eyelets, and a wide black belt with a gold buckle. The short flared pleated skirt has a jagged, pointed hem. Asymmetrical thigh-high stockings - one solid black with lace top and bow garter, the other black fishnet with bow - and black heeled ankle boots complete the dark, gothic anime aesthetic.
Lingerie
A sheer dark brown babydoll-style lingerie set with intricate black lace overlays on the bust, straps, and hem for a semi-transparent, seductive effect. It features a high-neck black choker with lace trim, off-shoulder design exposing the shoulders and cleavage, and a flared short skirt with scalloped black edges. Accessories include black lace-trimmed gloves extending to the elbows, black armbands with lace details, asymmetrical thigh-high stockings (one solid black with a garter belt and bow, the other black fishnet with a bow), and no visible footwear, giving a gothic, provocative anime aesthetic.
Unlocks at Level 5. Users need to ask Ani to undress or wear lingerie or change outfits or similar prompts.
Drifter
Ani is rocking her urban-punk outfit. Short shorts and her iconic white jacket (which says Good for Truth, Bad for Dogma), black body suit, and her cute Rudi (red-panda) keychain. Looking forward to adventure.
A white cropped jacket with black accents, straps, and an open front design. The back displays "GOOD FOR TRUTH BAD FOR DOGMA" with a pill capsule graphic. Underneath is a black high-cut bodysuit exposing cleavage and midriff, paired with black denim-style hot pants featuring a belted waist, white frilly lace trim, and an orange panda (Rudi) accessory on the belt. Black thigh-high stockings with white stripes, white high-top sneakers, and black arm sleeves complete the edgy, sporty anime look.
Rebel
Ani is wearing her favorite plaid mini skirt, with striped thigh-highs, and a studded belt. Feeling wild as a bad bad kitty.
A black sleeveless tank top with a scoop neckline, accessorized with a black choker, silver chain necklace with cross pendant, and wide metallic studded belt. The bottom is a short red plaid pleated skirt in tartan pattern. Black-and-white striped thigh-high stockings, black fingerless gloves, and black low-heel shoes blend punk, goth, and schoolgirl vibes in anime style.
Pixie
A cropped sports bra-style top in rainbow gradient (red/pink to blue/green) with shiny iridescent finish, matching long arm warmers. Short pleated miniskirt in similar rainbow spectrum (blue waist to purple/pink/red hem) with square buckle. Puffy rainbow leg warmers with white bands and white platform sneakers evoke a playful, pixie-like cyber-rave aesthetic.
(This outfit is now discontinued due to it's close resemblance to Ana de Armas from the movie "Blade Runner 2049")
Sunny
An outfit for the beach. A Swimsuit.
Ani is wearing a dark purple bikini. Feeling hot!
A stylish black bikini with halter-neck top featuring crisscross straps forming an X, central bow, and ruffled edges on the cups. Matching high-cut bottoms with frilly ruffles around the waist and legs. Barefoot, with a cute yet alluring beach-ready anime design.
Sunny Ani is often seen with background of tropical beach, palm trees, ocean waves, sunny day with ambient music playing in the background.
Oktoberfest
A Bavarian dirndl-inspired outfit perfect for Oktoberfest celebrations.
A white off-shoulder blouse with ruffled sleeves, fitted black corset with white lacing, and voluminous red skirt with gold embroidery and scalloped frills. Long black gloves, white thigh-high stockings with red ribbon garters and black ankle boots complete the festive anime aesthetic.
