One of those Fursona Memes
15 years ago
This meme grabbed from the journal of

I thought I'd try it, though I technically have more than one fursona in my head at the moment. But which one to do it for? ... let's flip a coin.. *gets coin*
Okay, heads will be Maxwell, and tails will be Tzolkin. *flips*.....It's Tails. So I guess I'll do Tzol for this one. I'm gonna focus on the old-school Y-13 version, because that's the version of him I like most at the moment. Yeah, I'm fickle.
1) What’s your fursona’s name and how did you come up with it?
Tzolkin. The name came from the Mayan calendar by the same name. At the time, Tzolkin was going to be a feral mouse in the MUCK I was joining, and I wanted a very exotic sounding name. Tzolkin was the first thing that came to mind that I liked the sound of.
2) What species is your fursona and why?
He's a house-cat. I chose it because I love cats, especially their personalities and fluffiness, the latter being something I long to have. He was a mouse at one time, but he outgrew that species, because in reality I only identified with mice because they seemed more cute, more like cats, than the alternative for the MUCK Tzol originated on.
3) Is your fursona based off a preexisting character? (Like a pikachu or renemon)
Nope. His fur pattern is vaguely similar to one of my cats though.
4) How old is your fursona and how long has it been since you created your fursona?
Tzolkin's age varies. He's typically either a teenager or young adult. I created him back in late 2004, so that makes almost 6 years, now.
5) Does your fursona have a background? If so, please share!
His background varies based on where he's showing up. In the Y-13 variant, he was a human boy who was taken away by a government organization. His DNA was mixed with that of an alien feline which had been captured by them, the specialized process rendering him an anthropomorph. From there he was likely given military and technical training. Things get sketchy after that.
6) What does your fursona wear?
Knee-length cargo shorts, sometimes an open-front jacket.
7) How do you relate to your fursona? Does he sound like you, look like you, act like you? Details please!
He acts and sounds a bit like me at times, but other than that, he's completely different. If you want to see a fursona who's more like me physically, you're probably looking for Maxwell. Even so, I relate to Tzol fairly well. He reminds me of something I could be.
8) Name one trait about your fursona you like the most and one trait you dislike the most.
I love how he makes no compromise or surrender to authority. He's completely free even when he's not. I don't like how slow he is to adapt, though. I've almost lost him several times because my personality changed faster than his, and I couldn't identify with him.
9) What is your reason for creating your fursona?
I wanted a character I could identify with. That's pretty much all there is to it. I wanted to be able to be myself through him, since RL circumstances wouldn't allow me to otherwise. People around me were very closed-minded when I started.
10) If you could become your fursona by tagging at least 10 people, would you do it?
Yes, I would. But only if those 10 people I tagged, and everyone else who ever did this meme, could become their fursonas if they chose, also. Power in numbers, you know, and we'd need a lot of anthros out there to prevent being exploited or abused by those who wouldn't consider us human.

And thanks. ^^ Heh.. I thought about things like that a lot when I was younger. >_>
