Becquerel FAQ
9 years ago
General
I get a lot of questions about my Becquerel fursuit. I thought I'd put together a little FAQ.
Q. Which suit is Becquerel?
A. This one:

Q. What character is he?
A. He is based off fan art that is based on a character from the webcomic Homestuck ( http://www.mspaintadventures.com/ ). So in a way he is both a cosplay and a fursuit, and I can wear him at more things.
Q. Aren't you worried about having a suit that is based off some commercial property?
A. Not really. Cosplay is a big part of the Homestuck fandom, and this is a one-of-a-kind, custom made suit. I doubt they'd bother. I've also had artists say that the original design is so simple that they have no problem basing art off it. I have no idea how well that would stand up though.
Q. How do you pronounce it?
A. It's a French name, so you could pronounce it the original accented French way, or the Anglicized way. "Bec" (BECK) is totally fine.
Q. Who made the suit?
A.
cloveroo
Q. Is he like a wolf, or what is he?
A. Dog. The creator has said his breed is "Omnipoterrier" but that may be a joke. There is a fan theory that he is German Shepherd (a white one, like Bolt).
Q. Why so white? Is he like a ghost?
A. No, he's quite physical. I wouldn't want to say too much, so I don't give spoilers. As succinctly as I can put it: Genetically Modified by Alien Science.
Q. So with white eyes, is he blind?
A. He's never referred or hinted at being blind in the comic, so he's either not blind, or he sees what he needs to see.
Q. I think I saw the head lit up from the inside once, but not any of the other times?
A. Yes, it lights up. This is built into the head. If it's light out, it's barely visible so I don't always put batteries in. I'm hoping to have more of the body light up. This is what it looks like:

Q. What's the green plush he carries around?
A. That is his favorite, radioactive steak (a Homestuck reference). And yes, I know "Henri Becquerel" is one of the discoverers of radioactivity.
Q. Who made the Kigurumi?
A. Referring to this one ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/20753291/ )
apoxon did.
Q. What's the symbol of the back of the Kigu?
A. A green sun, another Homestuck reference.
