well, I started thinking about a fursona even before I knew there was such a thing to do, (and far before I got involved with other people). But I didn't really hammer out the details to much (like colors and stuff) just species. My thoughts were that Wolves would be kinda cool, but you just know that in all the stories and stuff, they are very common (and it doesn't click with me) same with foxes, (minus the super popularity, but they are still kinda common, more so then some things), some of the big cats? something didn't seem right there either. Especially considering that all of those things had to compete with dragons at every turn, I've been interested in dragons as long as I can remember. Plus with dragons, alot of the traits that are applied to dragons also fit me, tend to work by oneself, might disappear form the world for periods of time, Dragons can be very patient when they want to (and impatient at other times, about other things) just to name a few. It would also have been a bit weird to be something other then a dragon, and have several many books about dragons, and know a bit about them, even have little statues of dragons... so yeah, obvious choice there, looking at everything, defiantly dragon.
