I don’t draw my fursonas often. I’ve drawn and commissioned pictures of Hyleren (the female reindeer on the right) a few times so she’s probably the most recognizable of the three, but very few people know who the gryphonlike creature on the left is.
She’s Siria, my second fursona in order of birth, having emerged around 2005. Siria belongs to a species invented by me at the peak of my interest for science fiction, the Elysius gryphon. The most important trait of these anthropomorphic gryphons is that they have innate voluntary control of several functions of their brain: they can tweak their own mood, sensorial inputs, mental habits and perception of time without resorting to external tools like drugs. I won’t go into all the details here, suffice to say that as a fursona she represents the most rational side of myself.
Hyleren instead represents my more “wild” sides and erotic imagination. She is a shaman and a biologist who lives for long stretches of time among the wild wolves in Scandinavian forests, being able (thanks to shamanic magic) to breed with them and give birth to pureblood wild wolves, thus helping with rewilding and repopulation. She has had all sorts of sexual adventures when going back to civilization, having few inhibitions and a very pragmatic and playful concept of sexuality.
The male reindeer at the center, named Reindeer, is basically me in reindeer form. He has a personality closer to my ideal self, the person and artist I strive to be.
This drawing depicts my fursonas as of 2019. The three of them have been employed extensively in roleplaying and in fantasizing for introspection purposes. Their appearance has changed slightly over time, though as of 2025 this picture remains the most accurate. It was drawn in a moment of pivotal changes in my life and is meant to represent the sense of rediscovered happiness and balance I felt at the time.
