[There is a very personal note that I have surrounded by ***s thats a topic that really bothered me in the past if care you to read that section. I might make another post about it on another day]
Hey guys! I would like to give you a proper introduction to my two TRUE fursonas. When I say my "true" fursonas... I mean that these are two characters that I have personally designed and developed as a vision of me irl.
Character backgrounds:
Both Sheyonni and Kyle were developed quite a long time ago. Shey was developed around 9 or 10 years ago, she is a pure vision of my personality and who I am on the inside. When it comes to her design on the outside, I live a little vicariously. I hate my irl body type, I personally struggle losing weight, no matter what I try... I've tried everything. Im... what I would say... curvy in all the wrong ways. I personally have a deep hate for my physical looks, and in drawing Shey and living through here in looks, helps me. Shey doesnt have her shape to "look sexy" or be used for "fan service" her body design is my personal dream body. I have large hips and an hour glass shaped waist... I just have too much "chunk" all over my body. I LOVE the idea of having large hips, thick butt and thighs, and I wish my breasts would be slightly larger. But not much larger. I also wish that I could have long, straight hair. I HATE my hair, its SUPER curly and is really hard to take care of. Even to the point people assume Im a mixed race. :/ So, other than the body modifications... Sheyonni is 100% me... 100% MaryAnne Sponsler.
Kyle is about 7 or 8 years old now, I originally designed a "simple-rainbow" adopt to try and sell. He would have been the first "adopt" I ever made. However, I grew on the design and decided to make him more of a personal OC. Around the time I started drawing him for fun, I started to learn a little more about how I feel inside. I came to find out that I struggled a little with my gender identity, and he became a bit of an outlet for my confusion and how I felt and even still feel. He is how I perceived myself at the time if I may have been male. I was going through a deep depression, I was having a lot of dark thoughts, dealing with a sexually and mentally abusive relationship. So in return he turned into a really dark character, and I personally would like to keep him that way, its suits him...and he even helps as a venting outlet. ***Now I would like to make a very important note, Just because Kyle is usually used as a dark and venting outlet... DOES NOT mean that I am going through a hard time right now. I simply wanna give him some more love. After I eventually broke out of my depression and figured out who I know I wanna be, I just didnt draw him as much anymore. But I still connect to him and wanna give him some love. I am very happy and content right now in my life :) ***
About the Characters:
Like I said before, Shey is 100% me. So what you guys see Shey as... is well... me xD Im a goofball, I love guns, alcohol, gaming, coffee, metal music, and so on! Shey, however, does fall into my gender identity too. There are some days where I feel more "inbetween" and this is more or less how I feel to this day. But, there are occasions where I (for a lack of a better phrase) feel like I have a dick? Like I know I dont have one, I cant see one! But in my mind I can feel it? Its really weird and hard to explain... Thats why I draw Shey with both a vagina, and a penis, and never both at the same time. So less than half the time, if you see art of Shey with a dick its a kind of vent thing.
***************************************
I also would like to make an important note about Shey and her name, because I have seen people make some comment about it. I PURPOSEFULLY spent days...weeks... MONTHS... developing her name. I wanted something unique, I wanted something that no one had ever heard before... I googled and researched every name I chose until I finally came to the name "Shayomi" I liked the sound of it, but it still didnt seem or sound right, it fit... but it didnt fit well enough. And then I got the idea to change the "a" to an "e" and the "m" into two "n"s to some what match my legal name in a unique way. There was a point where I had asked... "Would it be wrong to copyright my name "Sheyonni"?" and people BLEW THE FUCK UP on me. Saying that they "knew" people with the same name... letter for letter, and that there were basically other people in the world with that same EXACT name. Which I find impossible? I never saw anyone else with my name until some kid Instagram influencer stole my character and has seemed to take my name? You can find them as "Sheyonni's Life" or "Sheyonni Stokes", this whole thing happened about 2-2 and a half years ago. But because of the things people say to me... I shut up about it and leave it be.
***************************************
Kyle's character personality derives from personal feelings I had growing up. He is a depressed alcoholic and chain smoker. His fur is unkempt, nicotine stained, he deals with bad insomnia and has dark bags under his eyes. He deals with severe depression and often tried to kill himself. However if he cuts or anything of the sort his thick, tar like blood immediately clots and he is forced to heal. Back then I would often attempt suicide, especially buy poisoning myself with meds and such. So he over all just has an immunity to death since things never worked for me in the end.
His sexuality is also gay, as I personally dont find women sexually attractive, and his over all appearance is based off of my favorite male aesthetics and personal likes, so on and so forth.
Thank you for reading if you got to this point! If you got this far thank you so so much for your time <3 It means a lot!!!!
