Mikune Folf (born October 20), is a fursuiter who lives in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England.

Fandom involvement
Mikune has always loved anthropomorphic animals, and declared himself a furry towards the end of 2008 but was involved in the fandom in early 2007. He loves furry art, and enjoys drawing and playing video games. He has an interest in history, ranging from ancient to modern times as well as Numismatics, Science and Nature. He often takes photographs at furmeets and uploads the best to his Fur Affinity account. He sometimes takes photographs whilst at ConFuzzled as well as occasionally acting as a handler for fursuiting friends. He often creates furry artwork and has done so for over 16 years. At around age 5 he developed a fondness for anthropomorphic animals which slowly grew over the years of watching cartoons and other mediums that included anthropomorphic animals, such as video games and books. As well as imagining himself as one and writing stories about them.

Mikune began his first furry forum activity on Furry Teens but left once he felt he had outgrown the site. He used to be a member of the now defunct Furspace and MyFursona. Mikune was also fairly active on the UKFurs forum. He also served a brief spell as a helper on the official SoFurry Minecraft Server. He chose to sponsor WikiFur as he finds the website an invaluable resource and guide to the furry fandom.

Mikune attended his first furmeet in Leeds in October 30, 2010 and continues to attend other meets in the area (including the Leeds minimeet) and elsewhere. He also attends and has attended furmeets in other locations such as Sheffield, Liverpool, York, Manchester, Llandudno and Birmingham. The first furry convention he attended was ConFuzzled 2013.

Mikune became a fursuiter on July 25, 2013. His fursuit, a partial of his fursona, was constructed by Made By Mercury. His first outing in fursuit was at the Manchester mini-meet in August 10, 2013.

Fursona
Mikune's fursona (pronounced .mick-une/mike-oon) is a folf. He is 6 feet, 2 inches (1.88 meters), is of a larger build and is grey colored with light grey markings on his face, chest, paws and feet. His headfur is incorporated into his body fur. He also has a light grey tip on the end of his foxish tail. Mikune is one percent more fox than wolf, but looks the same as any other folf. He usually wears a dark blue shirt and black jeans with no shoes.

Mikune has a character named Inky Wells. He is a light blue fox who sports darker blue tattoos and markings on his body, and is quite slender yet a little muscular. He has black splodgy markings on his paws, feet and tail, as if they have been dipped into a pot of ink. He has black hair, and a long fluffy tail like all foxes. He is often seen wearing little to no clothing, and likes to show off somewhat in his red boxer shorts. It is a little known fact that he is actually the frontman and guitarist of a Thrash metal band.

He also has a character named Valentina Vulpin. She is a pale red coloured vixen. She has dark hair and golden eyes. She also may or may not be some kind of vampire, thief or assassin...nobody quite knows.
