My sona

I really had to push myself to write this page. I am notoriously afraid of creating, and a text description of a fursona is pretty up there on the list of “embarrassing things to create.” But let’s kill the cringe, I want to tell you about my sona.

Statistics

• Name: Cooper Drogón Tores Váquez (they/them)
  • Surnames: Tores Váquez
    • NB: Not ‘Torres Vásquez’
    • Those are actual surnames and my surnames are funny animal puns, which I will leave as an exercise to the reader.
  • Names: Cooper Drogón
    • Cooper is a reference to William Cowper, the Anglican hymnodist, whose surname is pronounced Cooper (/ˈkuːpər/). Cowper dealt with depression for most of his life and spent a long time in mental hospitals. I admire him a lot for this. My favorite of his hymns is Olney Hymns IX
    • Drogón is a reference to St. Drogo of Sebourg, patron saint of the mentally ill, cattle, and coffee.
• Species: Bos taurus × Bison bison (Mixed bison and domestic cattle)
  • Cooper is about ¾ cattle, ¼ bison
  • They still have the cape, though, because it looks cool
• Early thirties, 170 cm (5′10″), 115 kg (260 lbs)

Where’s the art?

I’m not a great artist. I’ve drawn a refsheet for Cooper, which I’ll show you if you ask politely, but allow me the indulgence of hiding from it for now…
