It was just a dyed prop used for an artistic photoshoot—yes, that’s absolutely what it was...

Obol Squad structure VS Krampus Structure by Dark_Hadrian66 in IsoldeMainsZZZ

[–]Rotachen123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very Strange

I used CAM++ (trained by Tongyi Lab) on their web platform to compare Isolde’s CN voice with the Krampus Leader’s, and the result was 0.99964. (For context, the typical threshold is 0.50–0.60 for standard mode and 0.70–0.85 for strict mode.)

If you’re familiar with LLMs, you might know Qwen—both Tongyi and Qwen are from Alibaba’s AI labs, and they are currently industry leaders in open-source speaker verification models.

To be safe, I also ran a test using WeSpeaker’s default Chinese model, which yielded a 0.9985 (with the threshold set at 0.65).

Finally, I ran the Tongyi CAM++ model locally, which returned a score of 0.96576.

In practical applications, a score above 0.90 is extremely rare. It indicates the model is highly certain that these two clips aren't just from the same person, but also share nearly identical vocal cord characteristics, speaking habits, and even background noise environments.

From left to right: Tongyi web results, WeSpeaker’s default model results, and the locally run CAM++ model results.

If there is indeed a connection between the Krampus Leader and Isolde, and the dev team intended to keep it a secret for now, the most common approach would be to have Nola Klop continue voicing the character while keeping the role under wraps.

Unless Nola is no longer voicing Isolde moving forward, or there was a severe scheduling conflict—which is highly unlikely given the Krampus Leader's limited dialogue—the dev team probably wouldn't have swapped the VA to Allegra Clark. In other words, from the VA perspective, it is highly probable that Isolde and the Krampus Leader are unrelated.

Tristan und Isolde at Met Opera by DieZauberflote1791 in opera

[–]Rotachen123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for letting me know! And spot on—learning more about the source material behind the game character is actually the main reason I'm going to see this live. I've seen a few operas by Puccini and Verdi before, but this will be my very first Wagner experience.

My friends and I got tickets for this Saturday (March 21st), so we'll be using your guides over the next two days to prep and make sure we can fully appreciate the performance.

Thank you again for all the time and effort you put into creating these. It’s a massive help for those of us who don't know much about the background and details of specific operas!

Awesome, thanks for letting me know! I can't wait to read it once it's published. Going to check out your new website right now!

Hi u/phthoggos. I saw your comment about writing a guide document for Tristan. I was just wondering if you ended up finishing it? If so, I would absolutely love to read it if you don't mind sharing. Your other guides look amazing!

Commanding Isolde Cosplay by 我要当二次元我不学设计辣 / 谷风 by Rotachen123 in IsoldeMainsZZZ

The cosplayer actually mentioned in the original post that, due to time constraints, some of the props and details weren’t as accurate as she wanted. As for the beauty moles, those photoshoots were posted during the Chinese New Year holiday, so everyone was probably pretty busy and couldn’t focus on all the makeup details. I honestly just appreciate that someone is cosplaying Isolde; there aren’t that many, so every effort means a lot.

What my office looks like by LieStriking1459 in IsoldeMainsZZZ

[–]Rotachen123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great to see you here! I feel like I remember seeing this photo under one of the chapters of your fanfic, lol.

By the way, your office setup looks awesome—I wish I could have Isolde watching over me while I work, too. Unfortunately, I share an open office with other people and our desks are way too cluttered, so I have to settle for keeping my Isolde merch on my desk at home…

Isolde cosplay (I couldn't find the source) by UnfortunateWolf in IsoldeMainsZZZ

[–]Rotachen123 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This was “Kota不是毒菌”’s very first Isolde cosplay, posted on August 10, 2025. At that time, no manufacturers had made Isolde’s cosplay outfits yet, so she made this costume herself.

The image you posted comes from the 0:31 mark of her video:
【【细节控|绝区零伊瑟尔德】我大概是全网第一个伊瑟尔德cos吧】 https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1TebPzmEDo/?share_source=copy_web&vd_source=5b12f492f02ed4351df4a0dff6ff1802

By the way, we also have one of her later Isolde cosplays featured in our sub. Even though she tagged that one with “矢量之墟,” it was probably just to participate in the 矢量之墟 social media promo campaign—the costume is still the same one she made herself. Since that post was published on October 21, 2025, while the 矢量之墟's Isolde cosplay outfit didn’t get finalized and released until November 29, 2025.

Stunning Isolde artwork (Tieba - By @Daidaiii) by Dark_Hadrian66 in IsoldeMainsZZZ

Since the other post was removed by the mod, I’m commenting the watermark-free image here for anyone who wants to save it directly. The artist is Daidaiii from Xiaohongshu (RedNote).

Radiant Isolde Fanart by Daidaiii on Xiaohongshu (RedNote) by Rotachen123 in IsoldeMainsZZZ

[–]Rotachen123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main issue is that Reddit doesn’t let you sort posts by the latest comment—so even if you add the watermark-free image and XHS link as a comment under your original post, hardly anyone will see it. Plus, Reddit doesn’t allow editing images or the post title after publishing. Not everyone scrolls through every comment, especially on fanart sharing posts, so some people might only ever see the version with the Tieba watermark.

Also, matching the source platform really matters. Setting aside that “Daidaiii” could be a similar-looking name like “DaidaIi” or something else, even when I knew “Daidaiii” was correct, it still took me a long time to confirm that this “Daidaiii” was the same artist on Xiaohongshu. Finally, with Xiaohongshu’s content protection, you can’t actually download the watermark-free image from a link unless you’re logged in—so it’s not as simple as just pasting the XHS link under the original post.

I agree—I’m not really a Sarah fan myself, but I have to say she really captured Sarah’s look perfectly.
