These threads always pop up every once in a while around various places on Gaia, but this time around a thread in the GCD lead me to explore the depths of my old photobucket account to find some wondrous things!

I'm curious, you guys. We all went through our awkward days on Gaia, and I'm sure we've all changed a ton since getting ti where we are now. A lot of us always dress like our characters these days, and it makes me wonder.

What were you like before you were you as you are now?

Because I sure as hell wasn't always the self-respecting soldier I am now. xd

First avatar? Oldest evidence I have is this puppy from when I was all over the music forum:

User Image

-shudder-

I didn't have that sucker for long though. My regular garb ended up being one of these for a looooooooooong time:

User Image

After that I actually started posting the AT instead of lurking my arse off and got addicted to my g-bot.

User ImageUser ImageUser Image

There's A LOT more where those came from. gonk

I slowly grew tired of the AT and dyed my hair orange because it's one of my favorite colors and stopped being mega active and only really wore whatever the ******** I felt like wearing until gimpi evolved into the beautiful eyes I've always dreamed of (well.... aside from the normal one being red instead of brown, but let's ignore that for now). Scars were already released and before that point I had never not worn my zorro mask because nothing else ever felt right. Even when I had my g-bot on, the mask was equipped. Big day for me when I finally took the damned thing off. It was my first ever item and I had NEVER removed it prior.

But, I loved the result. The military tendencies soon followed (though I had been saluting as a display of approval for years), and et voila, here I came to be.

So.

Now you. I want your stories. They don't have to be as long as mine. I was just really bored/happened to find all this stuff tonight.

Ha, I found from from after I went orange but before settling into my current groove. The orange always make me think of "X" as she is now, so picturing this is kind of hilarious:

That one actually won a contest by that thread Violaceous Vertigo had. xd

{laugh} Well, I've only been here three and a half months, so naturally "my" story is a little different, nyao...

As I've mentioned to a few people on Gaia, Kitirena originally started off as my Final Fantasy XI character:
User Image
(She looks so different from what she does now, doesn't she?)

Well, I never did like that plain hairstyle, and those brown eyes just didn't do anything for me, so I changed them:
User Image
Red hair, green eyes, and simple, cheap wardrobe... Bast, it makes me cringe just looking at that particular outfit! (Especially because her ears and tail didn't match! Has it really been that recently that we got a good set of black cat ears, nyao?)

Well, from there I made a few good friends, including the person who would later become my IRL BDSM teacher, and received a few nice gifts...
User Image
...And a slightly better fashion sense.

Well, my Sensei complained about how I never change my avatar's appearance, so I challenged her to a "duel" of sorts--I would change outfits once per day, not using any item in my inventory twice, if she didn't change her avatar at all, for one full week. Now, I like to change outfits periodically, sometimes wearing something tasteful...
User Image

...and sometimes slutty.
User Image

So many changes in less than four months... I can't wait to see what the next four months brings, nyao! >^_^<

Oh wow. Before I was me...

I used to be Human, actually. A simple human.

User Image
And my first appearance was during the Vampire/human escapade. No glombiezombies or whatever. Just Vampires vs humans. Of course, I played a human with an attitude, and a big ol' hammer.

I forget how I transformed, but some time during an encounter with Some members of a G-Corp support guild, I turned into a full fledged robo.

User Image
Albeit very a simple robot....

And got better as time went on.

And then I left Gaia, came back. XD And you know the drill. I sadly have no pictures from this era. But I got a lot better. Which leads to today's Pie.

There isn't much photographic evidence of my old self out there.

I remember trying to be frilly early on…
User Image

User Image

…And there was a time I'd put on a costume or two.
User ImageUser Image

Around the time of the water balloon fight, I distinctly recall looking like this. I guess I was still normal.
User Image

After that, though, I needed leg replacement and vision enhancement.
User Image

I stayed that way for a long while – at the very least, through the Rejected Olympics. Sometime between then and now, though, I must have had some severe head injury. My memories of this time aren't terribly clear; I only know that I used to have a normal face and natural hair, and then I had a dome head.
User Image

I went through a few upgrades as I could afford them…
User ImageUser ImageUser Image

…Until I finally got up enough gold to afford synthetic skin and hair.
User Image

And here I am now. Maybe someday, I'll look into some sleeker parts, but I'm pretty happy as I am now. I can at least slap on my B.O.O. robes over everything if I feel like it.
