Kip

Name: Kristofer "Kip" Andrew-Matthew Ampere
Age: Teen
Pronouns: He/Him
Birthday: January 12th

Kip is the third Ampere kid and best friend of Owen. He is a non speaking autistic teenager who has a special interest in dinosaurs. He enjoys watching cartoons, painting, and dressing up. His biggest pet peeves are being infantilized and being treated as lesser than just for being himself. He is also bold and enjoys getting into mischief.

Note: Sometimes I use this character as another fursona and depict him as a young adult. :)

Facts

Lore

• He knows a TON of facts about various types of dinosaurs. If he could infodump, he would.
• His favorite color is green.
• He actually hates his real name. As a kid, he would only respond to "Kip". His family eventually stuck to this name.
• Like his whole family, he is named after units of measurement. (Specifically "kip" and "ampere". Discovering this definition of "kip" is what inspired this whole naming trend.)
• He is around 3 feet tall.
• He tends to elope. If something catches his eye, he'll immediately run to explore it (and ignore any potential dangers).
• He has zero self-defense skills whatsoever.

Behind the Scenes

• His design and personality are very inspired by Fish from Chicken Little.
• Some of his other design influences include Moriah Elizabeth's characters.
• Some people irl have mistaken him for a duck and an axolotl.
