I am a college student in my mid 20's and almost finished with my bachelor's degree in graphic design. Sadly, no coding class was a part of the curriculum, so all of this website code is purely from my own process of trial and error (aka excessive, sometimes highly-specific Googling). I was fortunate enough to have grown up in the time (or, at least, frequented the part of the Internet) with forum boards where it was common to have some sort of coding know-how. As it currently stands, I'm proud of this little webbed site I made with my own hands and will be continuing to move in so that it can become my new Internet home.
I've been an artist ever since I could first wrap my hand around a pencil, or at least that's what my parents have told me.
Fun fact: I'm also left-handed.
That has quite the story, actually. Several years ago when I was in my teens, I had come across a large forum board roleplay site (back when those were far more prolific on the internet than Discord servers), and upon originally signing up, I had chosen a name I frequently went by online at the time. A long personal story short, I ended up deleting that initial account and leaving the site after a toxic relationship led me to try and scrub everything "weird" about myself from both real life and online spaces, including that site. When I finally left that relationship, over the next few years I slowly started coming back into my authentic self again and returned to the forum. Using my old name, however, didn't quite feel right anymore, and in a bout of absolute creative genius from my 17-year-old brain, I'd settled on the pseudonym "Legacy" as I was returning to who I had once been.
Unfortunately, I haven't been back to that old site for a long time now as real life and my own writing projects slowly began to take precedence. I hear it's still going strong though, over 20 years and counting.
Nixx has become my main fursona ever since getting back into the online furry community.
Nixx is a phoenix, but unlike others who die and are reborn whole again, something had happened during their latest reincarnation; not coming back to life out of the ashes of their former self, but being transformed by them, burning away their flesh and blackening most of their feathers until only what is left of Nixx now remains.
"Phoenixx," actually! I came up with the name "legacyphoenixx" as a possible change to my main Tumblr (though I couldn't just throw my beloved marchingbandtshirt away) as an easier way for people to know my online name and from the fact that I really like phoenix imagery and realized I tend to use it a lot in my writing. "Nixx" was the name that came from that.
