Persona heads are now balls of fur instead of a sphere with a nose: a ball in the persona's color with 60 thick, round-tipped strands, unlit as before, and two upright ink pills painted flat on top where its eyes are. The pills follow the ball as it turns but always stay level and the same size. Each persona's strands are laid out from a seed taken from its existing look, so every agent has fur of its own, and the persona dialog's shuffle button gives it new fur.

Heads that follow the cursor blink every 2–6 seconds, and any live head blinks when clicked. The head in the empty chat now follows the cursor too. A ninth avatar color, mono, comes first in the persona dialog: near-black with white pills on a light page, and white with black pills on a dark one. Heads redraw when the theme changes. The dialog's button for going back to the look it opened with is gone.

The camera now frames each head from the farthest a strand can reach, including its tip, so strands are no longer clipped at the canvas edge.
