Well, Serleena from MiB 2 is one of the most iconic figures of vore in general. As are fox furries of any kind.

Yea I find a LOT of furries on this site. I'm not into that though. But I hear it's a thing for some reason.

I personally think of aquatic creatures for vore because that's all they pretty much do is just swim, and eat.

Vore icons? Well, from major properties theres Cell, whom Im not gonna be convinced isn't meant to be sexual cuz of the symbolism that goes into his... uh. *everything*. But Kaa and Yoshi come to mind and are probably not meant to be taken that way. Then there's any predator by Don Bluth who I have a hard time not thinking is a closet furry and a closet vorarephile or HAD vorarephiles on his staff, SOMEONE whether they knew they had a fetish or not, was preoccupied with consumption, that is for sure. There's like no way!
Then there's Terror Toad or whatever from power rangers. That one I barely caught cuz it was like, too much of like a guy thing to me as a kid? But I DID catch that bastard and yes I did think about it!

OKAY but like, icons that call to mind vore specifically, even for outsiders? I don't think anyone is gonna scream vore-character more than someone like Miranda Dragon. I could see that be a divisive statement and I'm probably wrong but like, I've met a lot of people who don't really know what vore is who somehow still knew about Miranda and that she eats peeps. That's pretty damn iconic! Maybe not so much anymore but I'd say Karbo's artstyle would have been pretty iconic. Anyone who used to use 4chan will know "the frog comic" as pretty much a vore icon... and again, memes *are* icons, an icon is just a symbol that tells you a lot of info on a low bandwith--case and point, logos are very effective icons and so are smily emoticons--they're literally got icon in the name.

So, because of that, for someone to be an icon to me they have to be recognizeable almost without having to know about vore in-depth.

However, you DID mention Eka's Portal, and that implies that we're thinking if iconography for this website in particular, and at that point, there's really no contest--on Eka's portal the most iconic thing is Eka herself, you can see her right up at the top!

And for vore in general, I am going to say just, a picture of a stomach with nothing else attached is iconic enough to signify to other vorarephiles that you're a vorarephile anywhere else. An open mouth with teeth, even, I would consider less iconic. A stomach is a pretty fast suggestion you're a vorarephile, pretty strong icon right there.

But I really can't think of any other character but Miranda that is a recognizeable vore-related character that is recognizeable so much that even non-vores can recognize the symbol.

OH, crap, one other. What was their name, Hilda? The tiny blue dragon character that gets eaten a lot? I've met a lot of people who know of Hilda but aren't familiar with vore other than the baaaasic premise of vore, so, I'd say Hilda is iconic.

This is a hard question though! It isn't quite the same as like how iconic Lola Bunny or Krystal is to furries, like they're actual icons! In the vore-community, any answer is probably controversial, except Eka herself, reaaally easy iconography there. But, if we had to use an icon for the CONCEPT of vore, irregardless if if someone recognizes vore as a fetish is the topic at hand? Then I'd definitely say Kaa from Jungle Book. He's just well known, what he's about is obvious from the get-go, he's gonna try and eet-cha!

Karbo's Crisis used to be the definitive vore icon for me. Duamutef's profile pic was another one as well.

In popular main stream media, Kirby, Yoshi, Like-Likes from Legend of Zelda, and so many other "vorish" characters and monsters. From here. Immediately coming to mind is NitroTitan.

Fun fact: the reason is that furries are what created vore as a term and as a community in 1997. More details are here, if you are interested.

As far as vore icons go, I'll say dragons are the biggest ones, followed by snakes and whales

thanks for all of the replies so far people and please share this with others on this site and lets see who else they can come up with or who they think an icon is.

for me, when I think about this site, there are a few that come to mind. like cakeinferno's zoe (the fox girl), shyguy9's sophie the dragon girl, my friend blackrain and his spiderwomen,

not on this site I am thinking of ones like mamabliss's shasta.

I would say Hip Hugger Hippie is another vore icon. Her art is what got me into same size vore after being strictly macro/micro for the longest time.

BigBig caters only to people with a fat fetish on top of the vore fetish which is surprisingly alot of people but still he's not something you'll see out in the wild on other porn sites due to the other fetish you need to have to enjoy his stuff; and gregole is definitely not one of the biggests, he's more like the 500k subscriber Youtube channel equivalent for aryion. He's been at it for 11 years and he only has 2 million views. He's one of the oldest, sure, but his character puddle and lack of dynamic posing make him like... very average as far as vore art goes. He rarely even draws vore, he just draws implied vore for the most part.

...you don't need to be a jerk about it jeez
and what other fetish do you "need" to have to have a vore fetish? The OP asked about vore icons on THIS site not in general.

Well you definitely need to be into fat people and foodplay to enjoy bigbig, his content is like, objectively disgusting to look at if you're not into it.

Right ^^; Well even then you don't see bigbig outside of following him, he doesn't get posted in pic dump threads. You don't see those nowadays too. What's up with that

Funny, I've always kind of seen this place as "the human vore site". :lol: maybe it's just because I'm a furry myself, so the stuff that I consider different has more tendency to stick out like a sore thumb. :P

Back on topic though, Umiriko's the first to come to mind. Heck, finding a few of his cutesy drawings on DeviantArt so many years ago was a big part of what led me here to begin with.
