Eight (8) Original Character Facts
has tagged Ardor for me in this meme.~
It's been quite a while since I did much on DeviantArt. The summer is almost here so I think I'll be around here much more often.
Name: ⊕ Ardor ⊕,
ID: E-19440
Pronouns: She/Her, They/Them, He/Him, E/Em
Illustration:
Conspectus: Ardor is a highly adaptive narrative entity with a high Persona potential (Subtype: ███████). She most commonly manifests as a quadrupedal draconic/avian/feline pseudo-mammalian quadruped creature or as the nearest equivalent of such.
8. Nyms: Ardor's full name is often said to be Ardent Cadency; Ardere Cadence; the Phœnix of Hyperborea, among other names. In most narrative branches, 'Ardor' is merely a self-assigned nickname.
7. Iterative Identity: Ardor presents a challenge to catalogue in many narrative realities due to a recurring Type-INFRARED ("Noetic Regeneration") Character Aspect wherein, upon the brain death of the current instance of Ardor, their memories and personality begin to appear within a person possessing similar morphology (parabiochemistry (usually terran CHON) and clade/species (draconic/avian/feline)) to the original instance. New instances typically form from those experiencing the late stages of Stage-III Cognitive Development (mid- to post-puberty) and start self-identifying as Ardor over a period of anywhere from a few days to a few years. Ardor's identity is typically merged with that of the pre-Ardor entity, resulting in minor to moderate personality alterations over the course of each new iteration.
Iterative identity changes tend to occur in thematically-similar ways.
6. Design Evolution: The first depiction of Ardor, classified as Ardor-G1 from U-720 ("Earth's Shadow"), was a small beaked griffin with brown plumage and feathery wings. She was around the size of a medium-to-large domestic dog, not counting her wings. She possesses an unseen noetic halo.
The current version of Ardor, classified as Ardor-DG as a metanarrative entity, is a shapeshifter of intermediate size that prefers to assume a quadrupedal dracogriff morph. Ardor-DG is predominantly light-grey in colouration, has a muzzle, and occasionally possesses draconic wings.
5. Notable Narrative Adaptations:
Ardor-DG: A metanarrative entity that currently acts as the primary author/artist avatar for the Creator PortalHunter, also known as Dracogriff.
Ardor-G1: A small, noetically-talented griffin from U-720 ("Earth's Shadow"). She frequently engages in telepathy and mental hacking and is known to associate with a powerful ai-spirit.
Ardor-AM: Similar to Ardor-DG, but bipedal.
Ardor-TV: A medium-sized pseudo-dracogriff from U-2022 ("Transversal"). She is used to space travel via skip drive and adjusts well to unusual situations.
Ardor-SW: A small griff from U-1000 ("Skyward"). She is an uncertain voyager with a penchant for exploring zero-g ruins.
Ardor-SK: A character type based around maintaining a paranormal Masquerade of normalcy.
4. Communication. Ardor's communication quirk is characterized by a lack of contractions whenever possible [can't ➝ cannot | shouldn't've ➝ should not have]. When Ardor communicates telepathically, their speech is often enclosed within angular brackets and/or guillemets ( <Hi!>, «Hello.» ).
Ardor's speech is often considered to be stilted in its pronunciation (when applicable) and its word choice. They are good at saying things very quickly and will often go off on tangential conversational topics.
Examples:
«Greetings!»
«I am Ardor. It is very good & nice to meet you!»
«Testing, testing, one (1), two (2), three (3). "Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow." Hey, that should be an OC.»
«I am confused. [QUERY]. Explain, please.»
«I CAN CERTAINLY PULL OFF CAPS LOCK BUT IT DOES NOT FEEL AS COMFORTABLE, to say the least. It is akin to shouting, but… telepathic.»
«You wish of me to say the words & & |? In orthographic form, understood. "And and or." Is that adequate? I can also say + & /, though it does not feel quite as… smooth.»
«Үου αre foяsakən»
«Hugs?» owo
3. Likes: Friends; art; mainstream mythologiae; talking; physical comfort; dragons; warmth; food (meat and sweet things); flight of ideas; cute creatures (that may or may not be pettable); noetic manipulation; and sleeping, probably.
2. Dislikes: Extreme silence; loud noises; bad memories; being lonely; the dark; dissociative states; big scary creatures; feeling lost (socially, physically); being impulsive but not knowing it; and having memory problems.
1. Origin: I needed a name for a cute griffin character. I searched up synonyms for "fire", for "passion", for "enthusiasm" – and got just what I needed. The earliest date of her first being officially written into a story, her birthday, was on the 18th of June, 2014. That's in a little over two weeks.

[Exordium]
Not all those who wander are found.[citation needed]
The subject of this autobiography is used to being addressed as Portal or Dracogriff in online circles and will be addressed as such for the majority of this autobiography.
[Autobiograph last revised 2017-07]
⊕ Pronouns: They/Their, He/His, She/Her
⊕ Locus: The Laniakea Supercluster; the Virgo Supercluster; the Local Group; the Milky Way; the Orion-Cygnus Arm; the Local Bubble; the Local Interstellar Cloud; the Sol System; Sol III "Earth"; the North American Plate; Canada; [FURTHER ACCESS DENIED]; probably interacting with a digital device, hopefully with an Internet connection.
[Conspectus]
Ardor is often considered to be Portal's shadow self, referred to as their 'fursona' or their 'main OC'. This shapeshifting dracogriff represents her artist quite often when they are in need of a relatable visual manifestation of self but does not always directly represent her artist.
⊕ Functions: Artist, traditional and digital; Worldbuilder and Writer, of fantastical and scientifically-speculative genres and of roleplaying pursuits; Totally not a furry, no wayyy
⊕ Comics: Coming sooner or later.
⊕ Speculations: It has been said[by whom? – discuss]that Portal is probably some sort of bird or cat or other similar ethereal thoughtform that has learned how to type that has taken to interacting with the Internet's denizens to further its goals, whatever they may be. This has not yet been verified nor disclaimed by any surviving sources.
Contrary to popular belief, Portal is able to verify their way through "I'm not a robot" reCAPTCHAs without non-robotic assistance.

I've talked about the possibility of making a webcomic many times before.
Now that the planning and designing is underway for one, I hope this thing takes off.
I've been drawing a lot recently but I won't reveal anything just yet. No progress shots or anything.

EDIT: I thought I got tagged by almost a week ago for a meme!! Ahhhh!
1. You have to post ALL the Rules (eyup)
2. Each person has to share 13 things about themselves
3. Answer 13 questions asked to you and invent 13 questions the people you tag will have to answer
4. Choose 13 people (welp)
5. You have to legitimately tag 13 people (i don't even know that many people in real life are you kidding me)
6. You CAN'T say you don't do tags
7. Tag-backs are ALLOWED
8. YOU MUST MAKE A JOURNAL ENTRY! NO COMMENTS! unless you're talking ABOUT the entry (heh nope)
9. You have to finish within a week. If you don't finish in time, you have to do what ever the creator tells you (SIX DAYS)
10. Be creative with the title. No, " I got tagged" stuff (i have no idea what to do)
SCREW THE RULES
I made edits to the questions here because I have a hard time with faulty formatting. ^w^
1. Let's start simple. What is your full name?
J J J.
2. What country do you live in?
OH CANADA
OUR HOME AND NATIVE LAND
3. What program do you always use to draw?
Before, it used to be Paint Tool SAI but now I've switched over to Photoshop for many of my sketches. I really like the fast feel of SAI much better for doodles because PS CS6 is slow on my laptop.
4. What do you prefer most: drawing on paper or drawing digitally? And why?
Ooof. Sorta hard to say, considering many of my deviations here are traditional pieces tweaked and coloured on Photoshop and whatnot.
5. Which do you prefer most, to be with your friends or your family? And why?
Friends, most likely. More relatable that way.
6. What's better for you, laptops or mobile devices?
I tend to multitask and use CPU-heavy programs and prefer larger screens for art and communication, so, laptops~
7.what happened in you best day ever?
If I had one, I probably forgot what happened
8. What made you join DeviantArt?
It's probably pony content that got me really into dA, looking at my first-ever favourites. there was a friend that got me into it, I'm pretty sure, but I've forgotten who it was.
9. YouTube or Facebook?
YouTube.
10.I f you could have any superpower, what would it be?

12. Top 3 posts that you are very proud of?

I now have 50 watchers. Thank you to all those who have followed me!
I also submitted a little over a hundred deviations here too, so there's another milestone.
I've been messing around on Photoshop recently. It took a little while to figure out how to use brushes properly. I think I understand how most of the settings work now.
Animation! There's one thing I'm going to b trying out this week. There might be a few random meme-level animations coming soon.
Here's another list of what I'll be doing in the coming weeks:
Upcoming
- Animations...!
- A whole lot more OC sketches, possibly more than just Ardor and Ivry showing up
- Undertale stuff! Sanses~
- Zero gravity sky stuff (for real this time)
- More collaborations with Farsidejr
Potential
- There's gonna be something spacey soon. Maybe.
- That comic I've talked about for over a year... I have to think about how I'm going to do it first.
I also promise to put up more, er, finished work. That'd be nice.
