The blasted fursona meme

General
What is the name of your fursona?
Norithics "Nori" Kusemurai.
Where did the name of your Fursona come from?
I have an old Iron Maiden shirt I was looking at through the mirror, and saw the word 'Nori.' The rest, I just sort of pulled out of my magic bag of tricks. I figured Norithics sounded like some kind of math.
What species is your fursona and why did you choose that species?
Anthropomorphic raccoon. 'Coons have always been my favorite animal for their resourcefulness, reputation for mischief and relative lack of fear when it comes to all the other species of the world. Also, I think their fur patterns are really pretty and probably always will. As for why that applies to me? Well, I could pull any number of reasons out of my pocket, but talk to me in person for a while and I think you'll understand.
What color is your fursona and why? Hair/fur/eyes/etc
Everything about him is grey. He's what
grayscalerain called a 'Nega-Coon.' Instead of a primarily light coat with black rings, mask and extremeties, he's got a primarily dark one with the opposite everywhere. His hair is that same shade of light grey, and the only real color on him outside of clothing is his eyes, which are a kind of intense orange. Like Dukes of Hazzard orange.
What is your fursona's personality and how does this compare to your irl personality?
He's my fuzzy buttpuppet. I make his mouf-a move.
What is one item your fursona owns that is significant to you irl?
The tube shorts. Though I'm hoping to find a printing place that'll put on designs so I can finally have a real FOOMP! shirt. :D
What is one thing you think you would say to your fursona if you could meet?
"Go rape our boyfriend, I'll take pictures; he'll love it."
What is one thing your fursona would say to you if you could meet?
"I have to wash and condition my entire body every day, and you can't even manage not to make your head look like Scott Stapp stepped out of a garbage dump?"
How has your fursona changed over the years?
Well. He used to be a human, then a female ringtail. But I consider them seperate characters that I temporarily used as my own. Hilariously, most everybody thinks Mashato is my avatar.
How long have you had this fursona?
Since August 7, 2006.
Would you like to be more like your fursona?
Occasionally I think it'd be cool, but it'd probably get old fast. Other than the furry thing, he's pretty much just like me; skinny, average height, maniacal intent... I do aspire to have that length hair, but that's just a matter of time.
Ok now tag three other people you would like to learn about!
Like everyone and their momma's face's house wasn't on the news.

FA+

Don't you dare compare yourself in any other way to that talentless, egomaniacal twit!
That was interesting, informative, and enlightening. I do wonder if I shouldn't create a fursona now?
I also agree with the above statement that Nori needs to be drawn more ;p
So I guess B-wolf is my only true fursona ;) She's separate from any fan works, and an honest attempt at representing myself... Think I might do this on either her or Scratch XD
It's always fun to read these. Secretly, that whole conditioning your entire body thing would be one of the upsides of being furry for me - I'd love to be able to brush my entire body. X3
...I'm half-tempted to relate the ridiculous story about how Whyte got his name. >.>
And yeah, what exactly is a white shadow? xD
A 'white shadow' is a name I came up with for an online game when I was a lot younger. Hearken back some 11 years or so to another lifetime when a young proto-me, a being of about 11 years old and far from settled into any kind of stable identity, was first discovering not only the real Internet, but an online game with features like full level design support, a Mac-only game called Avara. Having a natural creative streak (even if I haven't always been able to channel it the way I want) he immediately jumped in head-first. He had to pick a name, though, so, possibly because he was on a Final Fantasy 6 bender at the time, he picked out 'Shadow'...only to find that people kept mistaking him for someone else, meaning that the name was already being used.
Hmm, he thought, I'll have to come up with something else. How about...White Shadow? Nobody's using it, and it's a contradiction, so it'll be deep and cool. Ooh, and I'll spell it with a y, just to make it totally exotic and original. ...and it stuck!
...dude, my origin story sucks. XD I've become rather attached to the name and the character that eventually came with it over the years, though. 'Course, the fact that he's now both a canon RP character and an avatar depending on context doesn't help the confusion any...
