Koori is a young male of Swedish ancestry, being both born and raised there, he still lives the life of a [http://www.skolverket.se/sb/d/2649 Second High] student. He struggles with getting enough time for his education, friends, hobbies and family. Koori is mated with [http://www.furaffinity.net/user/meade/ Meade], they do not live together at the moment. The ones Koori shares a living with as of now is his family - his mother and his two younger brothers.

===Biography===
When Koori was approximately five years old he got his own computer, a thing he deliberatively picked apart and re-build repeatedly, until his father noticed it and told him to not take it apart. Ever since that moment Koori has been interested in digital stuff, but with a passion toward software instead of hardware. His father was an active, yet unemployed web-designer, and when his father bought a copy of [[Wikipedia:Adobe Photoshop|Photoshop 6.0]] he introduced Koori to the world of digital design. Koori has been working with digital art since then, and developed a style that was of average quality. Even if his interest in Photoshop was big at that time, he didn't really put any time or effort in designing in named software. It is now since 2007 he has been working accurately and updated his style, trying to make it stick to a design that is up-to-date and appreciated. Koori has been drawing all his life, but yet again, even this hobby got re-awaken and improved somewhere around 2007.
===Fandom involvement===
Koori first noticed the [[furry fandom]] in 2007 through a picture drawn by [[Stormdragon Blue]], that lead him to [[deviantART]], where he soon created an account to further follow StormDragonBlue's progress with art. A few times he got linked to [[Fur Affinity]], but the website never really caught his attention until he saw that StormDragonBlue had account there as well, whereupon he made an account there too, and decided to upload the first picture of Koori's fursona. Ever since then Koori's friend circle has grown copiously, and is now a more open person as he had found like-minded people on FurAffinity.
===Art-style & history===
Koori's art-style inherits a range of previously used styles (by different artists as well as his own styles) - with every new picture he draw, it can be seen that it has a completely different style and appearance, even though few details can be related between the pictures. He has drawn pictures that all have different line-art styles, roaming all from normal line-art (black lines), colored line-art (lines with a slighter darker color than the area's filling), only faint sketch lines as line-art to no outer line-art at all.
His first pictures in the [[furry fandom]] were completely made with traditional mediums; paper and pencil, but on his fifteenth birthday he got a tablet, a [http://www.trust.com/products/product.aspx?artnr=15358 Trust TB-7300 A4], on which he has drawn his picture since.
===Mediums===
The softwares he uses to bring his ideas to the computer-screen are [[Wikipedia:OpenCanvas|openCanvas 4.5.18 Plus]], [[Wikipedia:SAI (software)|Easy PaintTool SAI]], [[Wikipedia:Adobe Photoshop|Adobe Photoshop CS5]] and [[Wikipedia:Apophysis_(software)|Apophysis 3D hack]].

==Fursona<ref>Personal account by Koori Kitsune, himself (given June 7, 2010)</ref>==
The blue-furred [[kitsune]] that Koori has as a [[fursona]] was created in 2007. The first drawing of the fursona was a simple mugshot drawn in 2007, which suddenly disappeared when he moved to a new house. But thanks to that disappearing piece of art, Koori's fursona got a completely new look. From having an incredible complicated fur pattern and being a species no-one know of, his fursona developed into the kitsune with a fox's fur pattern (but with blue colors) he is knows as today.
===Differences and resemblances===
Koori and his fursona shares the same body-build, eye color, accessories and personality. What makes them different from each other is that Koori's fursona is a kitsune, while Koori in real life is a human. What also makes them different from each other is that Koori is a user of elemental based magic, while Koori in real life is not.
===RolePlay===
Koori's fursona was at first meant as an internet alias, but has - as the years have passed - developed into an alter-ego of the real-life Koori, but also a character available for online roleplay. It is through roleplaying Koori has been able to complete his fursona even further. Not with design, but characteristics and background. His fursona is not meant for sexual online RolePlay in first hand, but a non-sexual is most preferred (if you ever would like to know him through RolePlaying).
