------------------ Cast of Characters
------------------
Lizardeth - An Anthropomorphic Iguana - kind of - who is loosely based on myself and my "lighter" side. She is more of a personal mascot than an alter-ego or "fursona". She is one of my oldest characters and one that I use the most often. Cheerful, Friendly, and a bit naive - but in a child-like less-experienced sence, and not a "damn she's dumb" sense. She's usually accompanied by her black and white stuffed bunny, named Mikey.
Maxine - An Anthropomorphic Cougar who is also loosely based on myself, but rather my much darker, more cynical side. Also has small aspects of a previous roommate. The "Pin-Up" character.
Inix - She started out as "just a costume", ment to be my first try at "fursuiting", but has become a reoccuring - and rather popular - character. She's a 14' tall anthropomorphic dragon with tribal tatoos, countless piercings, and brightly colored dredlocks. She's a bit aloof and has a nack for voodoo and witchcraft.
Sid - An anthropomorphic Lion. He is not my character, but rather belongs to my boyfriend Bob. His appearences are relatively recent. He punches things, drinks lots of Jack Daniels, enjoys being a pirate ninja and wants a pet spider named Megan the size of a large dog.
