What was your "first" fursona?
10 years ago
General
Just something I'm thinking about while working on some art.
Many of us have had some sort of character since childhood
Or perhaps since the elementary years.
What was yours? Did it change @ all?
Did it change species or color or personality?
For example I started out as a horse/unicorn, a stallion named Silver.
Then in my elementary years I was into cheetahs
(named Rita for obvious rhyming purposes)
I was into dogs for a while I had a collie & black lab character
(Based off my stuffed animals & beanie babies).
Then I went back to horses & had Silver as well as a
female mustang named feather as his mate.
Then I was into wolves & was just a plain White
Or black wolf.
When I came into the fandom I hybridized some
Of my old characters into one, Lux, & I still
Feel connected to her, but I am just as connected
To my wolf only(October) & horse/unicorn characters (lantern light & Aiden).
I feel well connected with a lot of my characters that feel like strange aspects of myself.
Even Eve, the bitter & sharp monster dog feel like me to some degree.
How about you?

I used him for a few months before I got tired of saying "fox, wolf, snow leopard thing"
Thanks for sharing! :3
Also, yes! Explaining hybrids can be tiresome. xD
Way way back when I found the fandom in 2001 in middle school. He was a wolf, think I have a "doodle" from then around here somewhere xD
& hey, we're not old, we're perfectly aged ;3 hahahA!
That's cool you found it somewhat early on though, I wish i had.
I think it would have helped me in a lot of life situations & develop my art
More too. :3
I like your thinking haha!
Yeah, it really helped me through a lot of major issues that I was going through when I was a kid. I don't think I would have really made it out sane without him.
My fursona Nike came into existence when I was introduced to the fandom in 2009. My Ex-BF was a wolf and I happened to really connect with wolves at that time lol.
Thank you for sharing my fluffy dragon friend! ^_^
Had her for about.... 11 years now i think
Cool! :3
But I think for furries, it works! :D
When I was a kid, though, I was CONVINCED I was a cat. Like I'd pretend I was a cat every day. Scratch, mew, hiss... the whole nine yards. Funny that I turned out to be a dog. xD
