Well, I've been waiting to do this. Say hello to Starfall, my ponified self! He's a red mage, which means he's a Jack of All Stats, Master of None in terms of magical prowess, but he has a special magic that is, in a nutshell, a mix of the powers of light and darkness. He's at least strong enough to teleport, but he's still nowhere near as powerful as Princess Twilight Sparkle, Sunset Shimmer, or Starlight Glimmer, let alone Discord or Princess Celestia. In terms of personality, he's usually a friendly guy, but he has a slight Hair-Trigger Temper and emotional issues due to a childhood trauma. He's very good at Ponish language study, though.

Credits to generalzoi's Pony Creator for it! Now what I need is a show-accurate vector, but that's pushing it

Just a meme image of Alastor scaring Vaggie

Fuze giving a piggyback ride to AK-12. As far as I know (I've only played R6S for, like, two hours tops), Fuze is notorious in the community for indiscriminately murdering teammates and hostages with his Cluster Charges, which complements AK-12's seemingly sociopathic tendencies.

The only piece of official art I can find with Kaden and Keaton together... I didn't want to use fanart without permission

A human version of a Mantis Lord.

The Sleeper from Darkest Dungeon. I like eldritch things, so the fact it has awesome themes like this one associated with it is a plus.

It's just Dorrie from Mario. Specifically as seen in Super Mario Odyssey.

A gentlemanly Quagsire by a fan artist. Same fan artist also made this Deoxys pic, which is my second-newest avatar.

Katia Managan from Prequel, right after she got herself some new clothes, and some grape juice

So I went ahead and uploaded all 36 Friendsim trolls (technically 38 because of Folykl and Kuprum and the Soleil Twins), by blood color and then alphabetically. Since explaining each one of them at once would be overkill, I'll just tell you who my current one is. Wanshi Adyata's the resident tomewriggler who doesn't like staying in the caverns because she finds them boring.

This is literally my newest avatar, though. It's Galekh's lusus, who takes care of him until he comes of age. I only uploaded this because... check the filename.

Also, I'm not done reading Homestuck (and it'll probably be a long time until I do) and I haven't played Hiveswap yet, so please forgive me for any inaccuracies made while playing as a troll.

The same two characters in my current avatar but they're in looove

The pixel icons were made by Amphany of Deviantart and I made the paw heart.

It was extremely tedious to resize the pixels, get a transparent background, and then resize them to fit as an avatar. -^-"

Shuuya Kano from Kagerou Project, a 17-year-old boy with illusion powers and crippling fucking depression that combine to create the ultimate example of a Stepford Smiler. He has a very catchy character song that's linked in my current signature.

02, the bleeding eyeball demon, but cute.

Bumblebirb, the incredibly stupid and incredibly well-defended birb.

Speck, a Gengar bit character from WHABP. A fun-loving fellow with a penchant for playfully spooking his fellow Pokémon.

This is a screenshot of my Avatar from an online Cars racing game.

Howard and Vince (in that order) from The Mighty Boosh, a...surreal...British comedy from the 2000s. Howard is a prickly, asocial braggart. Vince is his vain, shallow, flighty mate. They have bizarre adventures where they mostly just try not to get themselves killed.

The Pirate Master from Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, who is the main villain of the game. Also must say that the respective themes associated with him are among my favorites.

Right, multi-layer meme explainer coming up:

Rushing in online games is a form of tactic where you and your teammates relentlessly attack the enemy. In Counter-Strike, this is usually done by Terrorists in Bomb Defusal game mode, where they must plant a bomb in one of the bombsites. One of the most played Defuse maps, de_dust2, has the B bombsite easier to reach by the Terrorists than the A site, so many players prefer to plant the bomb there. Hence, Rush B.

Now, my avatar depicts the Girls' Frontline rendition of the iconic FN P90. The P90 is frequently depicted as a high-capacity, fast-firing, and easy to control weapon in many video games, making it extremely popular with... less-skilled players, to the point where simply brandishing a P90 is grounds to be called a noob. This holds true in Counter Strike: the stereotypically rude (often Russian) gamer who likes to Rush B is heavily associated with the P90 due to their perceived (lack of) skill. Come her release in Girls' Frontline, and people quickly transplanted the meme into her.

Last night, I had a dream in which I uploaded an avatar of Krow from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. I took this as a sign that I had to do it :P

The Dark Lord from Animator vs. Animation, specifically his appearance in the short "Flashback".
