== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross ====

''Ross'' has a full name of ''Rosswell Everstar Pines'', and is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on a real [[house cat]] with a similar name he once had.<ref>[https://x.com/Ridgefeather/status/1930575783241867322 My old cat's name] post on [[Twitter|X]].

He sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, which were often mistaken for ice-blue. Everest then changes the eyes into [[W:Odd-eyed_cat|heterochromic]] ice-blue and light green for convenience.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/~characters/edit/33553058 Ross's Profile] on [[Toyhouse]].

Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

==== Ridgefeather ====

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]], and cover name '''Ridgefeather'''. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref>, and create a new different character. Despite being largely based on a different character, Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather'''. Unlike Ross, Ridgefeather appears more common in feral form, lacks humanoid features that Ross has, and has scars on the muzzle and legs, while still keeping the ears feathers. By lore, his cover name is '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/26768047.ridgefeather Ridgefeather Profile] on [[Toyhouse]].

==== Glenview/Everest ====

''Glen'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes Glen more personally. The hybrid fursona can shapeshift into multiple different forms and species to disguise itself. In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on [[Twitter|X]]. Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref> In another alternate design, he appears in a fur pattern much similar to Ross.

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross ====

''Ross'' has a full name of ''Rosswell Everstar Pines'', and is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on a real [[house cat]] with a similar name he once had.<ref>[https://x.com/Ridgefeather/status/1930575783241867322 My old cat's name] post on [[Twitter|X]]. Retrieved June 10, 2025.</ref> Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on his right ear, which serves cultural purposes and can be replaced with [[W:Blue_spruce|blue spruce]] leaves. He sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, which were often mistaken for ice-blue. Everest then changes the eyes into [[W:Odd-eyed_cat|heterochromic]] ice-blue and light green for convenience.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/~characters/edit/33553058 Ross's Profile] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved June 10, 2025.</ref> Everest usually used Ross as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Ross which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1821537242839728459/ ''International Cat Day''] post on [[Twitter|X]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

==== Ridgefeather ====

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]], and cover name '''Ridgefeather'''. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref>, and create a new different character. Despite being largely based on a different character, Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather'''. Unlike Ross, Ridgefeather appears more common in feral form, lacks humanoid features that Ross has, and has scars on the muzzle and legs, while still keeping the ears feathers. By lore, his cover name is '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/26768047.ridgefeather Ridgefeather Profile] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref><ref>[https://artfight.net/character/3966311.ridgefeather-main-oc About Ridgefeather] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved May 12, 2025.</ref>

==== Glenview/Everest ====

''Glen'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes Glen more personally. The hybrid fursona can shapeshift into multiple different forms and species to disguise. In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on [[Twitter|X]]. Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref> In another alternate design, he appears in a fur pattern much similar to Ross.

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross ====

''Ross'' has a full name of ''Rosswell Everstar Pines'', and is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on a real [[house cat]] with a similar name he once had.<ref>[https://x.com/Ridgefeather/status/1930575783241867322 My old cat's name] post on [X]. Retrieved June 10, 2025.</ref> Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on his right ear, which serves cultural purposes and can be replaced with [[W:Blue_spruce|blue spruce]] leaves. He sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, which were often mistaken for ice-blue. Everest then changes the eyes into [[W:Odd-eyed_cat|heterochromic]] ice-blue and light green for convenience.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/~characters/edit/33553058 Ross's Profile] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved June 10, 2025.</ref> Everest usually used Ross as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Ross which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1821537242839728459/ ''International Cat Day''] post on [X]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

==== Ridgefeather ====

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]], and cover name '''Ridgefeather'''. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref>, and create a new different character. Despite being largely based on a different character, Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather'''. Unlike Ross, Ridgefeather appears more common in feral form, lacks humanoid features that Ross has, and has scars on the muzzle and legs, while still keeping the ears feathers. By lore, his cover name is '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/26768047.ridgefeather Ridgefeather Profile] on [[Toyhouse]].

==== Glenview/Everest ====

''Glen'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes Glen more personally. The hybrid fursona can shapeshift into multiple different forms and species to disguise. In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref> In another alternate design, he appears in a fur pattern much similar to Ross.

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s or [[W:Blue_spruce|blue spruce]] leaves on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, often interchanged with ice-blue as a mistake. Everest then changes the eyes into [[W:Odd-eyed_cat|heterochromic]] ice-blue and light green for convenience. Everest usually used Ross as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1821537242839728459/ ''International Cat Day''] post on X. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

==== Ridgefeather ====

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]], and cover name '''Ridgefeather'''. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref>, and create a new different character. Despite being largely based on a different character, Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather'''. Unlike Ross, Ridgefeather appears more common in feral form, lacks certain features that Ross has, and has scars on the muzzle and legs, while still keeping the ears feathers. By lore, his cover name is '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/26768047.ridgefeather Ridgefeather Profile] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref><ref>[https://artfight.net/character/3966311.ridgefeather-main-oc About Ridgefeather] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved May 12, 2025.</ref>

==== Glenview/Everest ====

''Glen'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes Glen more personally. The hybrid fursona can shapeshift into multiple different forms and species to disguise. In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref> In another alternate design, he appears in a fur pattern much similar to Ross. So far, Glenview's design has changed 4 times.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/22267109.everest Everest's Reference Sheet and Informations] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

=== Convention/meetup attendance ===

* [[Art Meet]] - 2023
* [[FURUM]] - 2024

== Art ==

Everest is a hobbyist [[artist]] and [[animator]], specializing in both [[traditional]] and [[digital art]]. He started [[drawing]] [[furries]] in mid-2018, frequently drawing them in [[W:Military technology|tactical gear]] and/or [[W:Civilian|civvie clothing]]. His art career slowed down in 2022, following a police marching and firearm course he joined,<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/46872871/] post on [[Furaffinity]]. Retrieved on March 21, 2025.</ref> before he continued drawing again after finishing the course.

== Social media ==

Everest joined [[YouTube]] on September 10, 2017, and has about 1.05k subscribers; where he spends his leisure time making content channel content where he plays [[video game]]s (mainly [[W:Roblox|Roblox]]), posts [[art]]-related videos, shares ongoing things in his life, and much more. Everest used the handle name '''BlueHelvetical''' for most of his social profile until June 2024, when he began migrating some of his handle names to '''Sleetstream''' and '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1782061054551605315 ''A small announcement] post on X Retrieved March 21, 2025</ref><ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1864267067656147302/ ''I will be transitioning most of my handle names...''] post on X Retrieved March 21, 2025</ref>

During mid-2020, as the [[COVID-19|COVID-19 pandemic]] worsened, Everest created a [[X (social media)|X]] (formerly [[Twitter]]) account to start and expand his social and [[art]] career, other than being overall active on YouTube and [[Discord]]. Lots of art style changes occurred during that time alone, and he started to offer [[art commission]]s on several occasions.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrLI6k5xm8M ''How I found the furry fandom! | Let's talk''] video on [[YouTube]].

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s or [[W:Blue_spruce|blue spruce]] leaves on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, often interchanged with ice-blue as a mistake. Everest then changes the eyes into [[W:Odd-eyed_cat|heterochromic]] ice-blue and light green for convenience. Everest usually used Ross as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1821537242839728459/ ''International Cat Day''] post on X. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

==== Ridgefeather ====

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]], and cover name '''Ridgefeather'''. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref>, and create a new different character. Despite being largely based on a different character, Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather'''. Unlike Ross, Ridgefeather appears more common in feral form, lacks certain features that Ross has, and has scars on the muzzle and legs, while still keeping the ears feathers. By lore, his cover name is '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/26768047.ridgefeather Ridgefeather Profile] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref><ref>[https://artfight.net/character/3966311.ridgefeather-main-oc About Ridgefeather] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved May 12, 2025.</ref>

==== Glenview/Everest ====

''Glen'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes Glen more personally. The hybrid fursona can shapeshift into multiple different forms and species to disguise. In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref> In another alternate design, he appears in a fur pattern much similar to Ross. So far, Glenview's design has changed 4 times.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/22267109.everest Everest's Reference Sheet and Informations] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

=== Convention/meetup attendance ===

* [[Art Meet]] - 2023
* [[FURUM]] - 2024

== Art ==

Everest is a hobbyist [[artist]] and [[animator]], specializing in both [[traditional]] and [[digital art]]. He started [[drawing]] [[furries]] in mid-2018, frequently drawing them in [[W:Military technology|tactical gear]] and/or [[W:Civilian|civvie clothing]]. His art career slowed down in 2022, following a police marching and firearm course he joined,<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/46872871/] post on [[Furaffinity]]. Retrieved on March 21, 2025.</ref> before he continued drawing again after finishing the course.

== Social media ==

Everest joined [[YouTube]] on September 10, 2017, and has about 1.05k subscribers; where he spends his leisure time making content channel content where he plays [[video game]]s (mainly [[W:Roblox|Roblox]]), posts [[art]]-related videos, shares ongoing things in his life, and much more. Everest used the handle name '''BlueHelvetical''' for most of his social profile until June 2024, when he began migrating some of his handle names to '''Sleetstream''' and '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1782061054551605315 ''A small announcement] post on X Retrieved March 21, 2025</ref><ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1864267067656147302/ ''I will be transitioning most of my handle names...''] post on X Retrieved March 21, 2025</ref>

During mid-2020, as the [[COVID-19|COVID-19 pandemic]] worsened, Everest created a [[X (social media)|X]] (formerly [[Twitter]]) account to start and expand his social and [[art]] career, other than being overall active on YouTube and [[Discord]]. Lots of art style changes occurred during that time alone, and he started to offer [[art commission]]s on several occasions.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrLI6k5xm8M ''How I found the furry fandom! | Let's talk''] video on [[YouTube]]. Retrieved September 19, 2023.</ref> As of October 10, 2023, this account has about 4.2k followers.

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross/Sleetstream ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s or [[W:Blue_spruce|blue spruce]] leaves on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, often interchanged with ice-blue as a mistake. Everest then changes the eyes into heterochromic ice-blue and light green. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref>, and finally split the two into different characters.

Despite being largely based on a different character, Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather'''. Everest usually used him as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1821537242839728459/ ''International Cat Day''] post on X. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref> While Sleetstream appears like a normal cat, Ross exclusively has a pair of antlers and does not have scars. By lore, Sleetstream's cover name is Ridgefeather.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/26768047.ridgefeather Sleetstream's Reference Sheet and Informations] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

==== Glenview/Everest ====

''Glen'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes Glen more personally. The hybrid fursona can shapeshift into multiple different forms and species to disguise. In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref> In another alternate design, he appears in a fur pattern much similar to Ross. So far, Glenview's design has changed 4 times.<ref>[https://toyhou.se/22267109.everest Everest's Reference Sheet and Informations] on [[Toyhouse]]. Retrieved March 21, 2025.</ref>

=== Convention/meetup attendance ===

* [[Art Meet]] - 2023
* [[FURUM]] - 2024

== Art ==

Everest is a hobbyist [[artist]] and [[animator]], specializing in both [[traditional]] and [[digital art]]. He started [[drawing]] [[furries]] in mid-2018, frequently drawing them in [[W:Military technology|tactical gear]] and/or [[W:Civilian|civvie clothing]]. His art career slowed down in 2022, following a police marching and firearm course he joined,<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/46872871/] post on [[Furaffinity]]. Retrieved on March 21, 2025.</ref> before he continued drawing again after finishing the course.

== Social media ==

Everest joined [[YouTube]] on September 10, 2017, and has about 1.05k subscribers; where he spends his leisure time making content channel content where he plays [[video game]]s (mainly [[W:Roblox|Roblox]]), posts [[art]]-related videos, shares ongoing things in his life, and much more. Everest used the handle name '''BlueHelvetical''' for most of his social profile until June 2024, when he began migrating some of his handle names to '''Sleetstream''' and '''Ridgefeather'''.<ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1782061054551605315 ''A small announcement] post on X Retrieved March 21, 2025</ref><ref>[https://x.com/Sleetstream/status/1864267067656147302/ ''I will be transitioning most of my handle names...''] post on X Retrieved March 21, 2025</ref>

During mid-2020, as the [[COVID-19|COVID-19 pandemic]] worsened, Everest created a [[X (social media)|X]] (formerly [[Twitter]]) account to start and expand his social and [[art]] career, other than being overall active on YouTube and [[Discord]]. Lots of art style changes occurred during that time alone, and he started to offer [[art commission]]s on several occasions.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrLI6k5xm8M ''How I found the furry fandom! | Let's talk''] video on [[YouTube]].

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross/Sleetstream ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s or [[W:Blue_spruce|blue spruce]] leaves on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, often interchanged with ice-blue as a mistake. Everest then changes the eyes into heterochromic ice-blue and light green. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref>, and finally split the two into different characters.

Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', despite being largely based on a different character. Everest usually used him as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s. While Sleetstream appears like a normal cat, Ross exclusively has a pair of antlers and does not have scars. By lore, Sleetstream's cover name is Ridgefeather.

==== Glenview/Everest ====

''Glen'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes Glen more personally. The hybrid fursona has the ability to shapeshift into multiple different forms and species to disguise.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref> In another alternate design, he appears in a fur pattern much similar to Ross. So far, Glenview's design has changed 4 times.

* Art Meet - 2023
* [[FURUM]] - 2024

== Art ==

Everest is a hobbyist [[artist]] and [[animator]], specializing in both [[traditional]] and [[W:Digital art|digital art]]. He started [[drawing]] [[furries]] in mid-2018, frequently drawing them in [[W:Military technology|tactical gear]] and/or [[W:Civilian|civvie clothing]]. His art career slowed down in 2022, following a police marching and firearm course he joined, before he continued drawing again after finishing the course.

== Social media ==

Lots of art style changes occurred during that time alone, and he started to offer [[art commission]]s on several occasions.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrLI6k5xm8M ''How I found the furry fandom! | Let's talk''] video on [[YouTube]].

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross/Sleetstream ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, which were often interchanged with ice-blue as a mistake. Everest then changes the eyes into heterochromic ice-blue and light green.

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used him as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

==== Everest ====

''Everest'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes ''Everest'' more personally. The hybrid has the ability to shapeshift into multiple different forms to disguise.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref>

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas is also named '''Everest''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz'''), a [[hybrid]] of [[Siberian Husky]] and [[Eurasian wolf]].

==== Ross/Sleetstream ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, which were often interchanged with ice-blue as a mistake. Everest then changes the eyes into heterochromic ice-blue and light green.

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used him as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

==== Everest ====

''Everest'' has the full name of '''Glenview Everest Lushenko'''. The hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself, and he utilizes ''Everest'' more personally. The hybrid has the ability to shapeshift into multiple different forms to disguise.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref>

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas are '''Glenview Everest Lushenko''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz''', later as '''Everest'''), a [[Siberian Husky]]/[[Eurasian wolf]] [[hybrid]].

==== Ross/Sleetstream ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had green-colored eyes, which were often interchanged with ice-blue as a mistake.

On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> This idea was eventually changed into an alternate character of Ross, the only difference is that Sleetstream has ice-blue eyes instead of green. Sleetstream was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used him as his artist icon picture. He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

==== Everest ====

''Everest'' the hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself. ''Everest'' is usually utilized personally, while Blue is prominently used for anything related to [[W:Social media|social media]] platforms.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref>

== Art ==

Everest is a hobbyist [[artist]] and [[animator]], specializing in both [[traditional]] and [[W:Digital art|digital art]]. He started [[drawing]] [[furries]] in mid-2018, frequently drawing them in [[W:Military technology|tactical gear]] and/or [[W:Civilian|civvie clothing]]. His art career slowed down in 2022, following a police marching and firearm course he joined, before he continued drawing again after finishing the course.

== Social media ==

Everest joined [[YouTube]] on September 10, 2017, and has about 1.05k subscribers under the channel name '''Sleetstream''', where he spends his leisure time making content channel content where he plays [[video game]]s (mainly [[W:Roblox|Roblox]]), posts [[art]]-related videos, shares ongoing things in his life, and much more.

During mid-2020, as the [[COVID-19|COVID-19 pandemic]] worsened, Everest created a [[X (social media)|X]] (formerly [[Twitter]]) account to start and expand his social and [[art]] career, other than being overall active on YouTube and [[Discord]]. Lots of art style changes occurred during that time alone, and he started to offer [[art commission]]s on several occasions.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrLI6k5xm8M ''How I found the furry fandom! | Let's talk''] video on [[YouTube]]. Retrieved September 19, 2023.</ref> As of October 10, 2023, this account has about 4.2k followers.

Starting in June 2024, he begins migrating some of his handle names from '''BlueHelvetical''' to '''Sleetstream''' for personal reasons.{{clarify}}

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, frequently used in his drawings or for games. Some were discontinued or archived, including '''Blue Helvetical''' the [[Protogen]] that he used frequently before, designed with the help of a friend. Everest's current fursonas are '''Glenview Everest Lushenko''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz''', later as '''Everest'''), a [[Siberian Husky]]/[[Eurasian wolf]] [[hybrid]].

==== Ross ====

''Ross'' is a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]], whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross is Everest's oldest character which he made in 2013. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had a blue-colored eye instead of a green color, which is explained as such because the tabby kitten was very playful during its first 3 months of age (where kitten eyes are still baby blue) and it suits his grey-white fur.

Ross was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used Ross as his artist icon picture. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

==== Everest ====

''Everest'' the hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself. ''Everest'' is usually utilized personally, while Blue is prominently used for anything related to [[W:Social media|social media]] platforms.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref>

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, his oldest being a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]] named '''Ross''', whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had a blue-colored eye instead of a green color, which is explained as such because the tabby kitten was very playful during its first 3 months of age (where kitten eyes are still baby blue) and it suits his grey-white fur.

Ross was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used Ross as his artist icon picture. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

Everest's current fursonas are '''Glenview Everest Lushenko''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz''', later as '''Everest'''), a [[Siberian Husky]]/[[Eurasian wolf]] [[hybrid]], and '''Blue Helvetical''', a [[Protogen]] (designed with the help of an online friend), which plays a main role in his social activity, with both of his fursonas having undergone several changes throughout the years.

''Everest'' the hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself. ''Everest'' is usually utilized personally, while Blue is prominently used for anything [[W:Social media|social media]] platforms related.

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017, supported by his art career.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, his oldest being a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]] named '''Ross''', whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had a blue-colored eye instead of a green color, which is explained as such because the tabby kitten was very playful during its first 3 months of age (where kitten eyes are still baby blue) and it suits his grey-white fur.

Ross was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used Ross as his artist icon picture. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

Everest's current fursonas are '''Glenview Everest Lushenko''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz''', later as '''Everest'''), a [[Siberian Husky]]/[[Eurasian wolf]] [[hybrid]], and '''Blue Helvetical''', a [[Protogen]] (designed with the help of an online friend), which plays a main role in his social activity, with both of his fursonas having undergone several changes throughout the years.

==== Everest ====

''Everest'' the hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself. ''Everest'' is usually utilized personally, while Blue is prominently used for anything [[W:Social media|social media]] platforms related.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref>

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, his oldest being a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]] named '''Ross''', whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique diamond shape on his tabby head pattern. He also had a blue-colored eye instead of a green color, which is explained as such because the tabby kitten was very playful during its first 3 months of age (where kitten eyes are still baby blue) and it suits his grey-white fur.

Ross was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used Ross as his artist icon picture. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

Everest's current fursonas are '''Glenview Everest Lushenko''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz''', later as '''Everest'''), a [[Siberian Husky]]/[[Eurasian wolf]] [[hybrid]], and '''Blue Helvetical''', a [[Protogen]] (designed with the help of an online friend), which plays a main role in his social activity, with both of his fursonas having undergone several changes throughout the years.

==== Everest ====

''Everest'' the hybrid wolf is described as determined, trustworthy, and sharp despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself. ''Everest'' is usually utilized personally, while Blue is prominently used for anything [[W:Social media|social media]] platforms related.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref>

During mid-2020, as the [[COVID-19|COVID-19 pandemic]] worsened, Everest created a [[X (social media)|X]] (formerly [[Twitter]]) account to start his social and [[art]] career, other than just being active on YouTube and [[Discord]].

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, his oldest being a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]] named '''Ross''', whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique eye-like dot pattern on his head. He also had a blue-colored eye instead of a green color, which is explained as such because the tabby kitten was very playful during its first 3 months of age (where kitten eyes are still baby blue) and it suits his grey-white fur.

Ross was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used Ross as his artist icon picture. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

Everest's current fursonas are '''Glenview Everest Lushenko''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz''', later as '''Everest'''), a [[Siberian Husky]]/[[Eurasian wolf]] [[hybrid]], and '''Blue Helvetical''', a [[Protogen]] (designed with the help of an online friend), which plays a main role in his social activity, with both of his fursonas having undergone several changes throughout the years.

==== Everest ====

''Everest'' the hybrid wolf is described as a determined, trustworthy, and sharp person despite being cold and a loner, much to fit his personality traits. The fursona has an occupation as a state trooper of a fictional state/universe created by himself. ''Everest'' is usually utilized personally, while Blue is prominently used for anything [[W:Social media|social media]] platforms related.

In an alternate design, he appears with dark grey [[fur]] (based on an old design of the fursona), described as a "shadow reflection"; this alternate version is commonly used as his Roblox [[avatar]] and vent content.{{clarify}}<ref>[https://twitter.com/BlueHelvetical/status/1744645476950172148/ ''Fun fact:''] post on X Retrieved 9 January 2023.</ref>

During mid-2020, as the [[COVID-19|COVID-19 pandemic]] worsened, Everest created a [[X (social media)|X]] (formerly [[Twitter]]) account to start his social and [[art]] career, other than just being active on YouTube and [[Discord]].

== Fandom involvement ==

Everest initially showed interest in [[animal character]]s after finding out about the ''[[Warriors]]'' ('''''Warrior Cats''''') [[book series]] in 2013, following up by expressing interest in [[anthropomorphic character]]s in 2014, and becoming fully involved with the [[furry fandom]] via [[Furry Amino]] and [[Instagram]] since 2017.

=== Fursonas ===

Everest has created several [[fursona]]s of his own, his oldest being a [[male]] grey and white [[Cat|tabby cat]] named '''Ross''', whose designs were based on an actual [[house cat]] of the same name he once had. Ross had two [[W:Malaysian Blue Flycatcher|Malaysian Blue Flycatcher]] [[feather]]s on one of his ears and he sported a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique eye-like dot pattern on his head. He also had a blue-colored eye instead of a green color, which is explained as such because the tabby kitten was very playful during its first 3 months of age (where kitten eyes are still baby blue) and it suits his grey-white fur.

Ross was often confused with a ''Warrior Cats'' character named '''Jayfeather''', and Everest often used Ross as his artist icon picture. On 21 October 2023, based on fans' recommendation, Everest decided to give Ross a warrior name which is '''Sleetstream'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/WarriorCats/comments/17d355m/i_made_a_warrior_cat_oc_based_on_my_real_cat_ross/ ''I made a warrior cat oc based on my real cat Ross''] post on [[Reddit]]. Retrieved 22 December 2023.</ref> He also made a [[W:Minecraft|Minecraft skin]] of Sleetstream which he frequently used in his [[live stream]]s.

Everest's current fursonas are '''Glenview Everest Lushenko''' (initially known as '''Polaris''' and '''Quartz''', later as '''Everest'''), a [[Siberian Husky]]/[[Eurasian wolf]] [[hybrid]], and '''Blue Helvetical''', a [[Protogen]] (designed with the help of an online friend), which plays a main role in his social activity, with both of his fursonas having undergone several changes throughout the years.
