Where's your Discord icon from?

For those of you who don't know me on discord.

So that's Hugh, from Microsoft Comic Chat. More often referred to as "MSChat" for short. MSChat was an IRC client that would render chat rooms out as a series of comic book panels with avatars speaking the chat text.

You could set panel size, which dictated speech bubble size, camera distance, how many characters could be in a panel, etc. And obviously you could choose an avatar and even send specific facial expressions with your messages. (And if you didn't, the program would try to infer an emotional expression based on your grammar and punctuation)

You could even download user-made characters and backgrounds.

Anyway, one of the default characters was Hugh, a big cat in a bathrobe.

I didn't really want to leave IRC because it supported things like MSChat (and I'd written a small handful of custom productivity scripts for mIRC, the other IRC client I liked to use) but my friends basically gave me an ultimatum that they were leaving IRC forever for Discord and I could either come with them or I could stay in IRC all alone.

So, I took a piece of IRC with me: my Discord avatar is Hugh from Microsoft Comic Chat. Hugh also shows up in my twitch emotes:

Over the years, when people ask me if I ever considered a virtual avatar, like a vtuber or pngtuber sort of thing, I've actually considered using Hugh. But I didn't make Hugh, and I'm a little worried he's still too associated with Jerkcity/Bonequest, since that uses MSChat.
