As many people are starting to find out, and I'll announce publicly once I get the green light, but I am currently in queue for an artistic freedom manned liger from AutumnFallings. I've been saving for this for a really long time and am so excited to finally be owning one of her amazing works of art. Now, prior to this post, I had spent months trying to decide a name for this character. The name that ended up sticking was Lyra. Now, as I continue to prepare for Lyra's homecoming, I'm going to start blogging down some ideas I have about her character.
Thanks to some recent events, I have come to realize an important part of her character. Lyra has a huge affinity for music and I couldn't explain why before today. As a young ligress, Lyra's parents divorced, forcing her into a position where she had to move a lot. This made making and keeping friends extremely hard to do. So, in order to cope with the loneliness, Lyra turned to music. It gave her an escape from reality and a place where she could express her feelings. While she struggled a lot in her youth, Lyra looks back at her childhood with pride, knowing the hardships she faced have made her a stronger and more independent person today.
I'm still working out personality characteristics as well as likes and dislikes, but I really like having a backstory of some sort to build that off of.
