So why the change to Lilith?

DON'T UNFOLLOW! DON'T UNFOLLOW! THIS ISN'T A DEPRESSING BLOG THIS TIME! I PROMISE!
Obviously I've been going through some changes of late, but these aren't sudden changes, but they were behind the scene changes. One of the biggest changes (on this site at least) has been from Crystal the Glaceon to Lilith Valentine, to which I am sure many are wondering why? And also why Lilith? Well wonder no more because in this not depressing blog, I will tell you! (please don't unfollow)

So as many have noticed, my screen name is Lilith Valentine now. Why? Well because I've actually been meaning to change my screen name for over a year now, but didn't have anything good to settle on. I didn't want another Pokemon themed one (it was going to be Scarlet the Vulpix,) and I didn't want to go with Miko Bootstraps (my must used D&D character.) So I was left with the desire for change, but not the name. Until of course in January when Lilith Valentine came about from the Temp itself. From there I kind of sat on the idea of changing my name. I didn't know if Lilith would be accepted of if I would keep using her. I mean, she's like my 8 fursona by that point and most of the others didn't have art or were barely ever mentioned. So obviously I didn't want to rush into something and come 6 months down the road and be like, "heck." So I think 6 months of debating and developing a character is a fair amount of time. Coupled with the fact that I started using Lilith Valentine far more than Crystal the Glaceon, until I simply stopped registering under Crystal the Glaceon. Thus by this point it became safe to say, I wasn't going to keep an old name that I wasn't using anymore. Of course I didn't want to make a new account because;
1: Against the rules
2: Everyone would know it was me anyways or start spamming my account thinking I am an art thief .
Neither works out with the Temp. First one gets ya warned/banned and second one is petty drama...that will expose my account and result in it getting warned/banned. Thus I purposed to a name changed and the stars aliened to grant me my wish.

The second reason being that it's a screenname that was created by Tempers, with a character who was developed by Tempers. When I got Lilith as an adoptable back in January, I didn't know what to do with her. So I came up and an idea. I turned her into an experiment where I let the community decide almost everything about her, this community including the Temp and other sites. I let the artists have almost complete creative control over her (only minor details were stressed,) then I left it up to the community to what they enjoyed the most. I also even let the Temp name her

So this was the name picked by other Tempers. So this screenname started on the Temp and has now become a reality on the Temp. That's honestly pretty cool when you think about it.

Now what about the other details? Well @Bubsy Bobcat basically became the "Official" Artist and character design of Lilith. She took hold of Lilith and quickly started making art for her

To which her art has far more views and likes on every site I post on it on. So it became extremely obvious that Bubs was a favorite. Which is interesting because all of the personality she put into her art and behind Liltih was directly inspirited by my real personality. Bubs showed her as this lovable, goofy, slightly prevy, but adorable character. Which actually was really nice to see. Of course there are other artists who had their take on Lilith, but none more than Bub did.

Once again, another Temper behind this screen name. It's become pretty obvious that this experiment/character really became a success with the help of Temp. So it's an honor to use the name and character that my fellow Temper's helped create.

What the heck is a porn statue? Porn is not usually a statue, in the case it actually was a statue, it would be in a museum and called ART. Lol :P

Porn statue, got to remember that. Somehow a drawing of someone's imagination is now a statue called porn. I'm not insulting anyone here but the term is just funny.
 
I almost forgot one little detail!
K so, I actually made Lilith half wolf as a playful nudge to myself. When I was sitting down trying to think of what breed she could be, I called her a "Mutt, just like Crystal." In real life, my heritage is all over the place. Then I though, I am mostly German though and that much is something I can confirm. My real last name is just über German when you look at it and I look mostly German.
How did I get part wolf from that? Because you literally can't swing a dead cat in the furry community without hitting a German Shepherd and because wolves >>>> every other canine.
Basically the part wolf is because I am some kind German mutt in real life.

@Chary is a furry confirmed (confurmed?)

Admittedly my thoughts did go immediately to the Binding of Isaac when I saw Lilith.

I guess The Binding of Isaac works too. Lilith in the game is still the same reference
 
"Lilith" reminds me of the slight speech impediment my niece had when she was 4-years-old. For whatever reason, she couldn't pronounce "L" and instead used "R" in it's place, so words like "Lily" became "Riry" and "Lilith" became "Ririth". You can tell she was trying her best to not do it, as words with L were always spoken slowly.

So did we get to "Bork or riot" part of the blog yet? :creep:

At one time when naming her, I thought of Nirvana, Celeste or Carmilla, then I realized not many people who name starts with L and remember that Lilith was one of them. Maybe Lily could be a nickname, but I didn't want to sound like a flower, Lizzie sounded like Lizard which wasn't as fitting. I came up with with Lilith Valentine cause I wanted to be something like femme fatale. Lilith is a enemy in Castlevania who looks like a pallet swap of succubus (having red hair instead of blue) and Valentine cause Ivy from soul calibur. cause the.... "suggestive theming" behavior that was being exhibited at the time. She is like a countess I guess so is kinda like having high rank, which I mean she kinda does, look at that post count, look at the join date, look at the likes, look at FILR TRIP.:ninja:
