On the Topic of Fursonas...
« on: August 02, 2012, 01:36:26 AM »
Do you have only one? If you do, is it you, who you want to be, a small part of you, or just a character to be? If you have several, why? Are you just indecisive? Or you you like having multiple fursonas just so you don't get bored? Or perhaps they're different sides of you? List them if you want, and what they are to you.
I have several, and each develops kinda on their own around a core detail and part of me. Here's my list, in no particular order.
Riku Aotsuki- snow leopard/housecat mix, he represents the deep, spiritual part of me that's rooted in  nature's majesty.
Jaiyden&Bailey- winged cat twins, they represent the part of me striving for balance; yin and yang.
Tai- a tiger, he is the threshold of unrestrained rage, but also self control.
Sanji Seiteki- a fox, he represents sensuality and love.
Matthias- cheetah, he's the speed-loving part of me, as well as, to a degree, my realistic ideal.
Fen- a small wolf, he is self-doubt and self-fear.
Rei- a cat, she represents purity unmarred by naivete or innocence. Also, extroversion.
Zeke- also a cat, he's both suave and bold(in looks AND speech).
Kynan- badger, he is wisdom. Redwall lovers, he was inspired by Russano the Wise.
Snowflake- another snow leopard, he's both slight fear of public opinion and hippyness.
Elijah- river otter, he's playfulness and to a lesser extent, actual courage.


And that's the primary ones...

I have one, Anoni, the furry manifestation of myself in all it's forms. I see Anoni as myself, but not myself as Anoni.

Though I was thinking of getting another character, more for art than for socializing though :P

Luke is like me in some ways, and what i wish i could be in others. He's my ideal me. It's like anoni said, i see him as me, but not me as him. ^_^

"Normal" is a word for something that doesn't exisit. It was created by those who don't challenge the status quo, and don't aspire to greatness.
Happiness is the way the Universe rewards those who face the hardships in their lives head on, with determination in their hearts.
Love is what binds us all together, what keeps us sane, makes us insane, holds the world and Universe together.
In my mind, it doesn't matter where you are going, where you've been, where you are, nor even the journey you're on. What matters is that you keep moving, no matter where you're going, where you've been, and where you are. Just keep moving.
I am White-Heart, white because it is every colour put into one, my heart is of all colours!

My one fursona, being my Otterself, is literally just me as an Otter >>
There's nearly no physical differences aside from the obvious furry ones, and personality is also the same, as well.

I could never have multiple "fursonas", simply because I would feel much more divided. Though I have one other character, which is just my German Shepherd fursona recycled, renamed, and reskinned, so to speak.

For me, the "he's me, but I'm not him" bit works strangely. Depending on my mood and current activities, I basically AM one of them. They're all me, but I'm one of them at any given time.
