EDIT: I tweaked the designs a bit, since I wasn't all that happy with the previous ones. I like these a lot more
I figured the first thing I should do is upload the ref I made of my fursona. Or rather, revamped fursona. Their name used to be Falljoy (don't judge me I was 12 when I came up with them), and they used to just be a wolf. I was perfectly happy with them being as they were for years, but my favorite animals started to shift to baboons (don't ask me why that is, it just happened), so I decided to shake things up. But since they were a wolf for so long, I was hesitant to completely get rid of the wolf design, therefore, monke werewolf.

Serdi: Yellow Baboon. He/They. Chill, mostly. Male presenting, but completely and totally sexless. Physically they’re androgynous. As big as a male, with nasty teeth like one too, but with no male genitalia, as well as no female genitalia. No nips either. Is possessed, and stuck with it too. Kinda overwhelmed by the whole thing, but is trying to take it in stride and live everyday life like it’s no big deal. Not a perfect endeavor, for sure.
Fell: The desperate fragments of a light demon, a light demon that was shaped like a winged wolf. Lost a mighty battle and was torn to shreds because of it. The fragments mistook Serdi for something canine-like, and possessed them. Not ideal for them, but it's too late to change it now.
Fell had been so thoroughly beaten that there was only fragments of their power and being left, and even that would soon fade away into nothing. There was no consciousness left in those fragments. Therefore, in a fit of desperation and remaining instinct, it searched for a living vessel that was something like it was in life, something with a snout, that traveled in packs, maybe even barked. Just something... canine-like. It found one, and seized the opportunity. Unfortunately for them it wasn’t anything canine, it was a goddamn baboon. Close enough, yeah? At least the fragments have an anchor now, even if it’s not what it expected; the fragments don’t really care either way, they don’t have the capacity to.
What Serdi gained from them was the ability to shift from monke to doggo (and eventually as his body gets used to it, more powers start to arise). Fell!Serdi pretty much just looks like normal baboon Serdi, but with a slightly lighter palette and some adjustments made to fit a wolf better. It hurts to shift, but as he practices more eventually it will become more tolerable. It'll never be comfortable, but it will be tolerable.
And memories. There may not be another consciousness, but there are memories. Not all of them are fun, so there's some unpacking to do. No therapist is prepared for this, though.
Due to his new Fell form, his base form looks a bit different than he did before. He used to look like a perfectly normal baboon, with all the features one would expect of that, but now? His ears are longer and pointier, his butt is now covered in fur, and his tail is longer and more dexterous. They're not life-ruining changes, and anyone who doesn't know them normally won't think anything of them, but he notices. It's a bit disconcerting, in all honesty, but he can't do anything about it, it's just how life is for him now.

The main reason I'm not making him a true baboon is because I didn't like the padded ass and kinked tail of a baboon; wouldn't really fit an anthropomorphic life, anyway. So, I got some other species of primates and mushed some features I liked onto Serdi, and now I like this design better. The tail is very reminiscent of the gelada, because I like how those look.
The Fell form isn't a full, perfect wolf, which I tried to hint at with the ears. They're shaped more like a hyena's. I'll probably add other odd, uncanny chimera features eventually, who knows.
