[edit] History of Nidhogg, the fursona

Nidhogg once went by the name "Ragnarokdragon" years ago (and still does in some art communities, such as deviantART and FurAffinity. The reason for this is because many years ago before joining the art community, Nidhogg's username was "Ragnaboy" based on his love for his favorite RPG, "Golden Sun" (the word "Ragna" in Ragnaboy is derived from "Ragnarok"). Eventually, his name on the net changed to "Ragnarokboy", and then when he finally joined the furry art community, his username was changed to "Ragnarokdragon". Today, he mostly goes by Nidhogg now, but some people still call him Ragnarokdragon. It was because of the RPG, Golden Sun, that Nidhogg began to grow fond of Norse Mythology. In the original game of Golden Sun, "Ragnarok" was a special attack used by the protagonist, Isaac. Nidhogg eventually grew fond of the name enough to start studying the true meaning of the name. By then, Nidhogg became well-knowledged with Norse Mythology and began to love it very much. It was because of his great interest in Norse Mythology that when he joined the furry community, he based his fursona's name off of the serpent, "Nidhogg", from Norse Mythology. According to Norse Myth, Nidhogg was an evil serpent who gnawed at the roots of the World Tree, Yggdrasil. Yggdrasil was a powerful sacred tree whose roots pierced the layers of the world, Asgard, Midgard, and Niflheim.

M. A. Guerra's (Nidhogg's) story that he is currently working on has a few cameo names from Norse Myth that appear in his story. For example, the antagonist of the story is a wolf named Skoll. Skoll was an evil wolf in Norse Myth that tried to eat the sun. Another example is that the World Tree, Yggdrasil, makes an appearance in M. A. Guerra's story. In his story, Yggdrasil is a sacred tree that was the first living organism to be created on the planet of Y'drask. In his story, Yggdrasil also had the power to reveal the gateway to the afterlife, Asgard (which was changed into the "Land of Hollow Darkness", Niflheim, after Skoll became the new king). Note: M. A. Guerra's story is NOT a tale based from Norse Mythology. He merely used names from the Norse Myth to show his love for the mythology.

[edit] Fursona

Nidhogg's fursona

Nidhogg is a winged red-scaled weredragon with red-orange palms, feet and undertail. He has green eyes, a beak-like snout, and little flappy fins on the side of his head. Nidhogg stands on two feet and has the ability to breathe fire. Nidhogg's body is very built and muscular, but not overdone. He tends to always wear a black shirt, dark indigo pants, gray vest, and studded wristbands, as well as a studded collar.

[edit] Personality

Nidhogg is a pretty quiet guy. He's usually anti-social around people he doesn't know, or when he's around famous or amazing artists. Usually the only time he fully opens himself is when he's around his friends or displaying new art. He also likes to chat on instant messengers, but only when he's not busy from work.
