The Beast has questions and some apologies!

Okay, so Manticore has been in and out of the forest this past week because of its human's AP exams. Its human plans to write a bio for him soon and being still a bit of a newb, it has has a few questions:

What are the fawns without pictograms? I've seen quite a few and I don't know if they're new or not. Is it a glitch?

I'm having a hard time grasping this speechless communication mojo. Bow to say hello and goodbye right? That is, I bow once to say hello and frolic with other deer and after a while I bow again and run off to elsewhere. I don't know if that's the most polite way to say it but I hope wiser deer can teach me the right way to do things.

Meeting a band of deer is really awkward for me. I bow and stand around but I'm not too sure how to interact any further. I've cast spells on deer and received mixed results. I apologize if I caused anybody any trouble.

I also turned a fawn into a squirrel. they seemed to be even more of newbie than me and didn't know how to sneeze it off. I'm really sorry fellow fawn! I ran off to get a spell and tried to change you back but it didn't work. D: I'm very sorry!

Everyone seems to have such nice exchanges but I've got a lot of practicing to do before I become a socialite in the Forest. Thanks in advance for any advice you give ! (:

I don't know about the fawns

I don't know about the fawns without pictograms. I'm sure there is an easy explanation, but I can't help you there. But so long as they don't have a pictogram, they are either a newbie or haven't logged in. Either way, I'd like to have an answer, too.

There are no rules as to how you should communicate! Bowing, does, in fact mean hello, but you can use it any way you like. I know what's going on when someone bows and leaves; it simply means goodbye. So if I understand it, then I'm sure others will to. I do the same thing.

As for the groups of deer, I can't really say. Normally a deer will do something and you can mimic them--this gets things going. That or, if they do something, your best shot is to react--as in, if someone does something incredible or shocking, you do the "shocked" emote.

But there are no rules, you play how you want! <3

For the nameless fawns, I

For the nameless fawns, I was one once when I turned from stag to fawn then logged out. I think you can be one by actually being a fawn and not a stag yet and then logging out, but I'm not sure.

Sorry if I don't make any sense ^^;
