Activity






   He is a cheerful enough fellow but gets somber sometimes. He often drifts into trails of loosely associated thought and may even go off on a blind walk while he does. Snippets of these you'll find here and the question/event that sparked them as well.
   In-forest, this action will be demonstrated by a complete stop, turn-about, and steady trot in the direction opposite of wherever he was originally going. One might be able to regain his attention for a short time, after which he will sit and just brood where he is.


Speak


Soko's ramblings and such
Why the long face?

Why? I don't know. I didn't have the chance to pick and choose what I wanted clamped over my features. That was the work of one who'd found their way atop the great oak and dropped the mask so close that it nearly split me in half. When I was young, I thought it had been work of the Gods but now I am no longer so sure.

Its,
   its hard to believe in them anymore.

Though I think that is partly due to the vanishing of Atu. I still find myself atop of that rock (which, unlike so many places, doesn't want to be worn smooth) waiting for her. I should stop this, I know,

but the pull is too great.

Even if she is lost,
and Scarlet with her
There is something coming or maybe someone.

I'll wait forever for.









His interactions are birch-wood and molten copper.
It's perfectly fine to role-play here or on a separate blog, if you wish.







Come with me
Or stay as far from them as you can. Tired legs drum on the world together. We're demanding to be let go and set free from it all. I'll carry you the last few steps. You don't have to bother yourself with me. Not any longer. Here is where we depart. Where I grieve.
I call loud enough to wake the stars, tell them to guide you back home.



I told you to be stronger
To fight for yourself
You don't listen
You don't learn
Their shoulders won't be here to lean on
Forever

It is golden, like the sun.
Bright white, like the moon.
It is good and vile and inbetween.
It is safety and danger and calm and violent.
It is free and captured and fought for and won.

I am still not sure what it is yet.

Trails, well worn and walked over
I will follow as far as they go
Where they bend I go my own way
A fork in the old path now
I must wear away on my own

Far away is the quiet, even as the noise just begins to settle.
Hoofbeats, heartbeats, bellows, and snorts. Noise is a wonderful, terrible thing...I can't live without having it around me. Even if the silence is sweet, it is bitter deeper in.
I don't want to be one who curls his legs in and lays on his side forever.
Alone because the silence first tastes sweet.
I value my company too much.
If the noise must leave me
I want to remain in silence, with warm shoulders against my own, and reassuring faces.

Today I, ran from the idol to the ruins and graves.
The forest was as silent as the death beneath them. I must be deaf, since not even the winter birds are singing. The snow just falls and falls. I am seeing more white than brown and blue. The pond water is no longer warm, ice floats where my hoof falls. The Gods stand upon their throne and watch.
Why are they silent?
It is not cold anymore. I can't feel the blood in my ears...or my back. My hooves are just ice now. It doesn't matter where I step.
Or slip.
I fall like an old stag does.
This silence...
This silence is not good.


I'm not sure what's wrong with me. I stand, I charge, I wish to fight someone. Anyone. Things have been too calm. It hasn't been like this since I was a fawn, quite unable to walk let alone jump, dawdling around the trees. It scares me but I don't know why... I should be happy, like you all are. Why do I feel so bad?


There is a crack
Thin as a single strand of fur
That runs across my mask now
If I am careful
It will not spread



I had a dream that I had woken...from some sort of endless sleep. I came to a place where all were against me, and where the sun did not exist. It was cold and dark and empty, and I stood surrounded by cold eyes. I could not run, my legs were bound. I could not shout, lest I be found by some greater danger.
So I stayed silent.
The eyes became the faces of all my friends and enemies. They shouted and laughed and then wailed like ghostly things. One came closer, it was the image of Atu.
"Be quiet." She said.
I closed my mouth.
The world fell silent.



The sky drowns in gray
The world is tinted rose
blood
red

The sun hides from us all
he mocks the winds that chill my bones
beneath the frost on my dark fur

The trees grow pale and freeze as well
They sway and groan
They bend beneath the wind

I watch and listen for the birds
I run from the wind
The grass parts into old trails
Best to keep them when alone

Friends, you find me
We race along the paths
We dart behind the stones
We leap over the bridge

We are many
Joy is one

Slowly you dissapear
Plumes of black smoke
The only sign that you exist
I feel the cold returning

In your absence I am bitter
One of you finds me again
She is cold too
So we run

We race along the
paths that dart behind
the stones that made the
bridge we leapt over

Together

You lie still
I watch you sleep

The sky drowns in gray
The world is tinted rose
blood
red

I sleep










Set Changes are uncommon atm because it's tiring trying to fumble with the accounts-switch-set trick.

So he'll be having his default set on most of the time. Ignore this page.

♥ Thanks Everyone ^-^


Fan pelt, long mask, antelope antlers~
This is his default set. It is most often shown around very close and trusted friends or just when he's relaxing. The mask is never removed with this but he might have flowers in his antlers at times.

The fan pelt~
This is mostly for design. He will avoid nuzzles wearing it and avoid the dark as well. In the summer his fur is slick or sticky with this on because it's a thicker coat of fur than the Great Argus or Golden Butterfly pelts. He will be around the stream and Drinkplaats in this...washing off and staying cool.

The long mask~
Since he is usually near water in this set he wears his mask at all times. If it is removed he will shy away from playful friends and sit alone in the Oak or somewhere far enough away from water. All this is because he fears his reflection, which shows a human face even though he has that of a endless forest deer.

The antelope antlers~
He will playfight in this set and defend against a small threat but will otherwise avoid conflict. Soko likes to stay in a good mood.


The Fighting Set
Great argus or golden butterfly pelt, long mask, antelope antlers~
This set he'll often have on. He'll often fight in this set if he knows he's going to win or just trot around with his friends and boast about who he's beaten.

The great argus or golden butterfly pelt~
These pelts are bright and thin and remind Soko of summer and the Sun. He will wear them in winter if it is night or wander the ruins in them during the day. Wearing these he puts in his mind that light is with him and won't shy away from anything, even air-sitting (which he usually avoids unless in play).

Long mask~
In this set his mask acts as a shield and a battering ram. He will swing his head in attempts to strike an opponent with it, and back up to protect his chest and neck with it.

Antelope anters~
These are rarely used, because of how thin they are. Sokonei will mostly playfight with them in this set. In a full-on fight he will avoid getting them involved and risk breaking them.

The Sorrow Set
Real deer pelt and antelope antlers (without mask)~ This is a set Soko will very rarely wear. It will be worn after a particularly bad fight or some other event that strikes him deep...like a death or other bad news. (If he plays at all, It's OOc)

The real deer pelt~
It is thin but warm and his gold patterns are not displayed but for faint lines of pale yellow. He will stay in the dark to sulk or sleep. Soko will be rather unfriendly to his friends and avoid any contact at all, and will most likely be air-sitting somewhere.

The antelope antlers~
Here they will not be used, even if they are the only means he has to defend himself. He will most likely run away from any sort of fight at all.










His relations are in need of updating so excuse the mess and confusion.
♥ to you all.

It's a good song. Could work

It's a good song. Could work with the layout. Not sure how it fits with Soko' though. Maybe explain to me how you see it perhaps?<3

Well I was looking at the

Well I was looking at the Lyrics yesterday and really like the... "night is calling...memela (listen)" and for me it brings up the sky and the secrets hidden up there with "listen" they're trying to speak it though the listener hasn't been paying them much attention..."voice with the fear of a child" is the listener speaking and they're not mighty.... but it can respond to the stars (who I see as the big levelers here)....trying to reason with them... "Ingonyama nengw' enamabala (he is a lion and a tiger) he is two things at once...."he lives in you"....lives in the stars...."watches over"....from the stars

see what I mean? It's not the message of the song in the movie but it's my interpretation of it for Soko <3

*NodsNods* I think it would

*NodsNods* I think it would work then. : )

Hello =D My char Demon met

Hello =D My char Demon met Soko a few times before. I read your bio and and met you when Sokonei was in his sorrow form. I'm sorry if Demon came off as indifferent when Soko approached him and his adopted daughter Tilly (that mini in the zombie pelt). My game was freezing right when Soko was apalogizing, so I couldn't see what he was doing. At that time, all the deer on my screen were as still as statues. o.o So yeah. Oh and one more thing, I think the link to Demon's bio is wrong, cause it's bringing me to this weird site.......

ANYWAYS, i loooooooooooove your background, its gouregous! And that artwork of Soko at the top,....beautiful and unique.

Without further to do.....................................................*trackness* =3

Thank-yous ^-^ I'm not

Thank-yous ^-^ I'm not finished with it yet though O.O;
Yay! I listened to so many different things my ears ache >:

~And as for the dream....

I spent a lot of time Playing Paix and Ace so I could think about what to do with Soko. It was difficult, and frustrating but I kept writing and failing to find something I liked but then, voila I got the perfect idea (which I refuse to reveal yet :3)...but the absence needed an explanation and I thought of how deer dissapear from the forest so often while it seems like they've just gone to sleep. So I came up with the idea that he was lost in a dream-world of sorts and had only the memories of the forest to keep him company.
That was a sort-of relapse dream :'3

Edit: Thanks guys ^-^

Hey, is it just me or has Soko decided to approach Demon in animal form? Caue I remember in Soko's bio (before you cahnged it) that Soko was afraid of Demon, or at least cautious.

Soko: "I'm spreading holiday cheer. Are you cheery yet?"

Rofl, I love his

Rofl, I love his interaction-blurbs. I hope to do that with Ravus's relationships, someday. They aren't as easy to do as they appear...

His are so original. Ravus's makes me laugh ("Don't ever forget the first two, and be grateful for the latter!") and others like Dinah Moon's or Makime's are just. aw.

And then the other funny ones. xD

They're a pain sometimes, but

They're a pain sometimes, but mostly easy as you get to know the deer yours is referring to.
