Stolen from : Kompy:

What made you choose the species of your main fursona?

I'm a Leo. Hell, I'm such a prototypical Leo in almost every way that I'm surprised I wasn't ACTUALLY born a lion. As for the supernatural aspects, those are derived from having the handle "Heckfire"...in fact, my original fursona was an anthro-housecat named "Fizzgig" who, when I originally created him in 7th grade, was a blatant knock off of both Steve Dallas from "Bloom County" and Peter Venkman from "Ghostbusters," right down to being a character in a spoof of that movie (which makes him ultimately turning into a demon all the more ironic).

Is your fursona just like you, or how you want to be?

He's way more confident and self-assured than I am, plus he has actual power and status even if it's largely as a joke; other than that, we're both huge losers who couldn't attract a lover even if we were at a cannibal convention covered in barbecue sauce.

Does your fursona have the same personality you have?

Debateably. Like I said, he's got more on the ball than I do, but he's also way more prone to making dumb decisions for the sake of sex; meanwhile, I stayed faithfully monogamous to a woman who'd have sex with me once every few years.

Does your fursona have the same dislikes and likes as you do?

For the most part. I'm much less amoral than him, though.

Does your fursona look like you at all?

Not really anymore. Hell, he's 4-foot even and I'm over 6'2". We used to have the same kind of build, but, well, too many depression-consumed Ding Dongs will tax even a weight lifter's metabolism.

Is your fursona the same gender as you, if not why?

I'll just say "We both have a dick and like to use it on women" and leave it at that.

Do you have more then one main fursona?

Not anymore. Like I mentioned, Fizzgig and Heckfire became one in the same back in the late 90s/early 2000s, and the other two that came closest were merged into the current version with him ten years ago.

Do you have a back story for your fursona, if so does it have anything to do with your own history?

Sort of...like I said, the character who became Heckfire started as the "Spookblaster" Fizzgig (and was a Cabbage Patch Kids 'Koosa before that, although all they had in common was the name) before becoming a mascot and, later, my avatar, popping up in pics to snark about stuff and try and keep my more chaotic creations in line. Around the same time, I created another mascot, Louis Fender, who became my most popular character. Years later, when I rejoined the furry fandom in the early 90s and fursonae were all the rage, he officially became mine; my old VCL gallery still has that name.

Years later, when I was first married and learning web design, I was convinced to make a Geocities page. "Fizzgig" was already taken, as was every other name I could think of, every random item in my office, every alter ego and character name I ever used, every swear word not automatically rejected by the servers...I was finally down to made up swears like "jehosephat" and "dagnabbit" when "Heckfire" (from a popular office joke, "I darn you to the fires of Heck in the name of Gosh!") took. So, "Heckfire, Lord of the Darned" became my "normal" online handle and "Fizzgig" was my furry one, and they later merged into one character. Side note: his "Word," the demonic sphere of influence that serves as his source of power and domain, became "Demon of Uncomfortable Silences" when my friend and fomer GM granted it to me because of my penchant for conversation-halting non sequiters.

Later, when I turned 30 and was in the middle of a huge personal meltdown (the first of many, it seems), I actually had a dream where Heckfire, the aforementioned Louis, and "Faithful Skortch" (a character I RP-ed a lot in chatroom RPs as well as Heckfire's former hellhound) decided that, in order to heal me, they needed to merge together into a more stable identity to keep me sane and alive; his look, the short fiery lion, was taken from a character I'd been developing for "Project: Wildheart." I woke up and that was that; oddly, I've never been able to draw or write Louis properly ever since.

Is your fursona mated, if so is it to your real life significant other?

Nope. I have no one, neither does he.

If not are they looking for a mate, or are they a swinger so to speak?

Heckfire the character swings like a damn chandelier, but he's not really looking too hard.

Is there something special about your fursona that you think sets them apart from others?

Arguably the level of psychosis that went into his current incarnation.

Do you have much art of your main fursona/s?

Yeah, but typically not of the actual character as much as him acting as a surrogate for me.

Would you ever consider parting with your main fursona, if so why?

Unlikely, although I keep trying to redesign him to better reflect, y'know, ME. So far, though, nothing has stuck or felt "right."

If you suit, do you have a suit of your main fursona?

He's two feet shorter than me and ON FIRE. Not bloody likely, even if I did feel like pulling a "Tim Conway's Dorf on Golf" to match the heights better.

Have you ever roleplayed with your main fursona, or do you prefer not to?

I prefer not to. When you see the name "Heckfire" in a chat, even if I'm goofing around and doing stuff that reflects the character's appearance and powers, it's me, not any character.

Do you consider your main fursona to be a part of you in any way?

He IS me. He's just a convenient identity to use in place of my own (since I'm so sick of Motley Crue and Pamela Anderson jokes...yes, my actual name IS "Tommy Lee").
