Fandom/Fursuit Achievements[edit]
- In 2006 Mystifur started the Eurofurence tradition to lead the fursuit parade out of the con site and into the local vicinity, culminating in a suit-walk like parade through entire downtown Magdeburg in 2013, with an estimated crowd of 6000 spectators, coming from all over europe just to see the parade.
- Leaning strongly towards the costume side of the fandom, he kept working on improving fursuit support at various events. The Eurofurence Fursuit Lounge today is more than 1000 m² (11,000sqft), featuring a wide array of coolers and low-noise blowers, several racks of powered body-, head- and pawdryers, chill-out area, a 'round the clock supply of free fursuit friendly drinks and snacks. Arguably being one of the reasons for Eurofurence to achieve a fursuiter/attendee quota of almost 50%
Fun Facts[edit]
- Provided fursuit heads for a fashion magazin in 2013. Result: Several of the non-furry people involved decided they now needed their own fursuits.
- Considers himself somewhat boring, because he prefers to stay sober at parties.
- Seems to have portable black hole in his car. The pile of luggage to go into the car is regularly bigger than the car itself
