Posted 15 years agoI've moved, as you all should know by now.
I will be using this account to show off all the gift art, trades and commissions I've received. :]
For now I'll throw this up as a little placeholder, and some info on some of the characters you may see here...
IATRO - Also known as "Frika." My previous fursona, though I still draw it from time to time. An androgynous collie with blue striped fur, and sewn-on hairless brown arms. It also had a few other forms I also retired, such as a 12-legged Oriental-inspired dragon and a griffin.
PHINEUS - Phineus Pwwka Propaganda, often called Propaganda/Prop. My primary fursona. A purple shapeshifting pigmonster ... thing. Also has a less monstrous fossa form.
PEST' - Pestilence in full, aka the King of Rot. A freaky skull-headed, undead, corrupt version of iatro.
DAN - Dan Smith in full. A pink punker Avidrake (bird-dragon), an old character of mine that I'm very fond of.

about my fursona
Posted 18 years agoWhat is the name of your fursona?
Iatro, usually shortened to 'Tro or bastardized in any number of forms (iator, iratro, trobot, etc.), or alternately Frika though not a lot of people use that name
(and technically there is also Chivalry and Pestilence, referring to specifically the demony and zombie versions respectively)
Where did the name of your Fursona come from?
TRUE STORY: i actually wanted to name myself "infinity" but somehow i got it mixed up and picked 'iatro' instead (which is a prefix, referring to things medical). OOPS
Frika is a Norse goddess and also admittedly bitten off the VNV Nation song. i just really really like this name
Chivalry and Pestilence just fit their looks, to me.
What species is your fursona and why did you choose that species?
switches a lot between a non-anthro griffin, a non-anthro 12-legged fuzzy little dragonthing, and an anthro collie; and when i'm in a foul mood sometimes bastardizations of the collie - a horned demony dog-thing or a skull-faced zombie thing
griffin: this was actually designed by
kimbo-demonica, as a random gift a long time ago she drew me as a griffin. i liked the design and just sort of went off that later. the griffin form loosely tends to represent strength, anger, freedom
dragonthing: something i myself designed sort of as a joke, but i grew fond of the look and kept it around. the dragon's generally happy and bubbly and outgoing.
collie: an alternate form i came up with a few years ago during some spectacularly angsty times. i picked collie because a favoured childhood pet was a collie, i'm very fond of them, and they tend to represent that whole "happier, simpler times" thing because of the association. the collie's a general 'default' sorta form i guess.
Chivalry is basically a tall, starved, hairless and horned version of the collie; just some weird angry dark form i created to draw wangst.
Pestilence is a further bastardized version of Chivalry, it has a skull-face, missing an eye, tends to be rotting and falling apart, switches arms a lot.
What color is your fursona and why? Hair/fur/eyes/etc
main colour is medium blue. at the time i created Iatro blue and silver were favorite colours, and i lack(ed) the skills to effectively colour reflective silver, so blue it was! i'm no longer so fond of blue but it's stuck because it is a nice even shade.
darker blue stripes were added later as purely aesthetic. the white markings and hair have always been there- why white? because it's neutral and simple.
the right eye is orange, the left is silver-blue. silver-blue because it's supposed to mimic the colour of my eyes in real life; orange originally because it was contrasting, now i keep it because it's my favourite colour.
dark grey claws/horns because again, i wanted something contrasting and neutral, and i didn't want to do just black.
skin was originally a default pink, but became purple later when i decided i wanted to have blue skin, but with red capillaries, it looks purple.
What is your fursona's personality and how does this compare to your irl personality?
uh, iatro's got the same personality as me
What is one item your fursona owns that is significant to you irl?
i often give Iatro the same chaos star pendant/necklace that is prized to me- no real reason, i just love it and find wearing it comforting. uhh, that's it, i guess?
What is one thing you thing you would say to your fursona if you could meet?
"'sup fucker?"
What is one thing your fursona would say to you if you could meet?
"sup gimme a light, oh wait that's right you QUIT you fucking pussy"
How has your fursona changed over the years?
oh man. well i'm not gonna run down every single avatar i've used, i'll just focus on iatro- originally iatro was an anthro female cat thing, with oversized ears, pink skin, no stripes, and four fingers. she could shapeshift into anything, though the colours stayed the same, she was some "Chaos Cat" species i made up. she had lots of alternate forms based on my whims - the dragon, snail, parrot, whatever
then she slowly gained a pinky finger, purple skin, the darker blue stripes, and dropped the "Chaos Cat" thing and just became a "cheshire"
i adopted the griffin and collie, then dragon, as "permanant" alternate forms, then dropped the cat because i associate it with a lot of negative events in my life - i just don't like it anymore, it feels uncomfortable to me.
around this time iatro lost any gender association and just became an it, and now here we are :)
How long have you had this fursona?
hmm, the first picture of it was uploaded to VCL august '01. so i think it's safe to say 6 years overall?

Would you like to be more like your fursona?
this is an interesting one to interpret; seeing as how personality-wise they're the same, there'd be no change there
would i like to be a griffin/dragonthing/collie? tough to say, as fun as it might be to be a sentient animal, society would probably generally frown upon that and stuff. it's a fun fantasy, but realistically? no.
i would like to take some features though, i wish i could gender-shift, or be androgynous/genderless in real life; or have some of the bod mods 'Tro has that i don't
