Historical origin历史渊源
[本段可能不确定且不准确，仅供参考]
The origins of the fursona concept within the eventual furry fandom is difficult to pin down to specific dates, and it is not known if similar concepts of personal fictional alter-egos exists outside of the furry fandom.
兽设概念在整个兽同好圈中的起源，十分难以确定为某个特定的时间节点；并且，与之相似的“个人虚构化身”在兽同好圈之外存在的确切时间也是不为人知的。
What can be said is that the growing clout of roleplaying gaming (including live-action, tabletop, computer multi-player, etc.) in Western society in the 1970s and 1980s induced the adoption or self-creation of highly-stylized, often genre-specific alter-egos for RP purposes among specific audiences.
唯一能说的是，角色扮演游戏（包括但不限于真人的、桌面的、电脑多人联机等类型）在20世纪七八十年代的西方社会中影响力的增长，促使特定的一些观众为了RP（角色扮演）的目的而采用他人创作的，或自创高度个性化的、通常是特定类型的另类自我。
As the first large furry parties took place at large science-fiction or multi-genre speculative fiction conventions, such venues often served as meeting places for both RPers and costumers as well as artists and writers, the latter two of whom had often honed their skills in the funny animal art scene's APAs. Thus, when RPers and costumers happened upon the Art Show exhibits for "funny" animal artists, the latter were soon in demand from RPers and costumers for commissioned renditions of their RP or costume characters.
