Do you have a world a collection of your characters are tied to? Any stories associated with them that you've been thinking about (even if it's not yet written down)?
HELLO ok so i have 1 story for p much all my human chars which i talk about here: Do u have any human/non furry ocs? — YEAH I DO, one time me and my buddy spent about 2.5 yrs writing this extremely long romance intrigue historical fiction and … https://retrospring.net/@Boypretties/a/111886757629893890
and for the rest of my furry chars i have 2 world settings for them. the only chars that are rly strictly setting locked are Dream and Him, because these settings were developed around them as part of their character context.
Dream's setting: Dream lives in an idealized version of the real world, so like theres cars and phones and internet and stuff. She runs a cafe [one visual instance of the cafe is here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49173925/ tho its not strictly tied to this exact layout. its more of an aesthetically defined space and can have different features/layout. not pictured in this example bu thtere are a good amount of succulents in the windows+i often imagine the space having a skylight as well. lots of glass construction.] her universe is just like, basically the general furry genre and is located somewhere on the southwestern coast of the USA.
Dream: https://toyhou.se/12525120.dream
His setting: He lives in a fictionalized version of the early modern period in western europe, loosely based on the unicorn tapestries. its all very faux medievalist in this setting, very king arthur type of vibe [im cringe but im free]. this setting accommodates most "normal animal" furries as long as their colouration is natural and they dont have like crazy wings and stuff, so most of my chars can be slotted into this context either as members of His court or just ppl in the society. He is also a bastard warrior king from nowhere without an heir to speak of, so He has to compensate by being extremely competent at military strategy and pouring huge amounts of funds into arts and spectacles and feasts and shit to keep all His subjects loyal. Bit of a paranoid workaholic diva.
Him: https://toyhou.se/15234079.him-sona
Chars that mainly appear in this context are:
Florent - https://toyhou.se/12861709.florent
Florent is a dutch accountant [why does the netherlands exist in this setting? idk. my general feeling is this all probably happens pre-enlightenment so the exact location of His kingdom is kind of nebulous.] He invites Florent into His court and eventually makes him the head treasurer. He also fucks him and makes him do mental math during the act because Florent is just a sexy little calculator app to Him.
heres some sketches of Him and Florent doing their horny ass power dynamic loyalty display shit:

Also spoilers: Florent is also extremely workaholic and He will sometimes come in and order him to stop [usually to finger him or smth] [spoilers 2: He does this to ensure that Florent doesnt get burnt out and to maintain his loyalty, aka He is doing kingdom social maintenance work by doing this. these 2 high strung fuckers r perfect for eachother]
Clement - https://toyhou.se/18206499.clement
Clement can fit into either world but he has a specific role in His court, which is that he's the royal farrier [he maintains hooves and makes horse shoes/shoes for other hooved animals in the court]
He hooks clement up with florent and watches them ffuck sometimes because he finds out florent has a thing for clement.
I know this question was supposed to be about setting but let me be clear: He is so fucking horny and not even regular horny He's like advanced horny. Dream is also horny. All these fucking characters are randy as hell. Florent's got that repressed hornitude, u know the type.
