Biography
Ember Komodog has also spent considerable time living in other countries, including 5 years in Belgium, and 8 years in the Republic of Ireland. He is a graduate of Cardiff University and has done work in student radio and magazine production.
He has been in a long-term relationship with Lazerus101 since 2008 and the pair announced their engagement in 2013.[1]

In mid 2013 he moved into a house with Lazerus101 and SlyCat and is currently living with them both still.
Fandom involvement
Ember Komodog discovered the furry fandom in late 2005 while searching the internet for pictures of dragons. He is a furry fan rather than a lifestyler.
He took over the role of deputy head of the ConFuzzled fursuit department for ConFuzzled 2013, becoming department head effective as of ConFuzzled 2014.[2]
Ember gained internet-based fame due to a series of rant videos on YouTube, centered around aspects of the fandom and popular culture.[when?][citation needed] The series was ended in early 2008, as Ember decided that the videos were not representive of his attitudes and opinions towards a lot of the subject matter any more.
Fursonas
- Ember - Ember's fursona has gone through several design changes since it's conception in 2005. It was originally designed to be a red and brown dragon with the name of Cym. A name change was in order though in late 2006, due to an embarrassing mis-pronunciation that most people attached to this name. Ember's mate (at the time) Leon Fauve (creator of the FMV series') suggested the name "Ember" due to the primarily red colouration of the fursona. The name was adopted, and has stuck ever since.
The fursona is not in actual fact a dragon any more though, more a mix between a dog and a dragon, which Ember dubbed a "komodo dog" as he once considered making it a mix between a komodo dragon and a dog. Though, it was shortened to "komodog" soon after. However, it simply became easier to explain to people that it was part dragon, not part komodo dragon, but the name has stuck ever since. It can best be described as a dragon without wings, but with fur.
In late 2007, a fursuit of Ember was commissioned. It made its public debut in September 2008 at Brumcon 3.
- Blanko - In early 2007, Ember decided to create a secondary fursona, a mix of a fox and a husky called "Blanko" for which he would adopt as a fursuiting character. He commissioned Joecifur to create Blanko for him. He made his debut at Midwest Furfest 2007.
He has since taken Blanko to several public outings, as well as to Confuzzled in 2008, and Brumcon 2 in the same year.
