New fawn! Newbie person/RPer...

A new fawn enters the forest.

The little thing, who goes by the name of "Nicsiii," takes hir first look at this new area. Peaceful. The birds chirp gaily through the branches, the sound of bubbling water catches hir ear, and golden sunlight dapples the ground ze stands on.

An ear flicked up at the sound of hoofbeats, just across the pond. Not hurried... fast, but playful. Relaxed, even.

So very peaceful. A curious tail flick and head-tilt later, Nicsiii rushes off on ungainly legs to catch up with the stag. And maybe pester him to start a game of dance-y tag.

Hi! I'm very new to this game--just registered and downloaded this afternoon--and it's already really nice. Very peaceful and cute (and unsettling, my fawn's face is going to look much better when ze's grown up). I ran into some other deer, and though I was excited at first (they all looked so cool with their masks and pelts!), none of them actually stood up or interacted with me when I tried talking to them. I was bummed out for a little while, but I've checked around this community for some help and some people said that (apparently) the best way to have new experiences with other deer is RPing!

I'm kind of out-of-practice on that... I'm more used to writing prompts and short musings to myself in a diary, but I'm taking my first shot at it. I really didn't try too hard on this yet, it's just something to test my creativity muscles, but I think I want to keep going with this idea. (Nonbinary deer, I hope this is..."okay" in the this community?)

So, hello! I really hope this community is active; the game is really relaxing and fun, and I hope that these forums are just as nice!

Hello there! I think you'll find this forum and game is very active ;>
I'm so glad you're enjoying the game! I look forward to learning more about your characters.
Feel free to post on any of my character's bios and starting a roleplay!
Hopefully I see you in the forest sometime! ^^

Welcome again~
You'll get used to the human faces - they become rather endearing after a while, or at least most people think so. A lot of folks say the fawns' eyes are too far apart though haha.
Sometimes people don't respond in-game because they're using the Forest for ambient noise while doing other things (homework, art, roleplaying, etc.) or they're just plain not there. Don't be discouraged - you'll find someone to play with eventually! The Forest has high and low activity periods as well, so if you don't have success one day try a different time another day.
Pretty sure you'll also find your nonbinary deer is in good company; there are all sorts here.

You may also find these pages and the information they contain to be useful: One, Two, Three!

Welcome to TEF! There are

Welcome to TEF!

There are certain times of day when the Forest is most/least active. Try not to get too disheartened by some bumps on a log (:

There are plenty of nonbinary and gender non-conforming deer in the community, so I'm sure your fawn will have no trouble in that regard. TEF is very open and accepting of all different folks!

Many players choose to create a "biography" for their character - a page with the character's information, personality, and description. This helps other players meet and get to know your deer and can certainly help to open up new and more in-depth interactions (both in-game and on the forums/elsewhere). They can be as simple (1 2 3) or as complex (1 2 3) as you'd like, but it is completely optional! Some players choose not to create biography pages and have just as much fun with the game or roleplay. ^^

Another thing that may help with getting other deer involved with your fawn is Skype. Many players have Skype accounts used for communication while playing the game - they can use this for RP, for coming up with plots and events to involve their characters in, or just to chat! Again, this is entirely optional and in no way necessary to enjoy the game. The forums work just as well!

Best of luck! Hope to see your fawn in the Forest Laughing out loud

Thank you all! Welcomes just

Thank you all! Welcomes just make me feel warm and fuzzy inside, hehe. And it's relieving knowing that there's no discrimination here!

Thanks for the links, and the roleplay suggestions, and the advice! I was pretty lost in the hugeness of the game and sites for a while. I'll try to log on later today and maybe interact with some of you! Smiling
