Although it ended with quite the disaster, this season has been a success to Virgil.

This is his second year rutting as a Stag, he was fairly good at rounding does and leading them to pleasent pastures for grazing. There he tried his best to protect them from bucks and stags alike.

Most of his losses were to strong skulled stags, but he was particularly good at fending away bucks save from a couple of cross-dressers. *Ahem*

He has made many friends.

Ultimately he is likely to be fathering two fawns this year, the predicted amount. One hopefully with his partner Kiyoko - the news yet to come; the other by an albino doe called Kauna.

His most challenging opponent was Saosin; followed by Fox and Lork.

His least challenging opponent was Rush; followed by Nukilik.

Often his good friend Gehirn and he would bicker and argue about each others places in the harem, both prefering to herd one another instead of act as rivals. They both seemed to take an equal amount of turns being a doe or the stag.

As a player, I have learnt a lot about my character, and this experience has helped us develop and mature our place.
During the rut, he has confessed his love to Kiyoko, and I like to think that's one of the greatest highlights where character development goes. Thanks Kiyo. <3
Another character development highlight would be the new look. His antler has snapped, though along with the other will both fall off in late winter/early spring. Meanwhile, the reopening of his trademark X wound will leave a perminant scar on him and thus change his visual identity a bit. Thanks for the fight Sao. <3

Virgil's hormone levels will remain heightened for a further few weeks, he may express some slight rutting acts from time to time, but he is no longer "In Rut".

A great year.

-Advantage: Brute, very strong, fast and fit. Experienced, knows many tricks.

-Disadvantage: Weaker around the body. Not brilliant at balancing his energy for long periods of time. Doesn't deal with stress very well. Minor mental disorders. One antler, can't lock, but can stab.

Interests Deer he is interested in, will protect and fight over. He may be possessive of them unless defeated in combat.

Notable actions Parallel walking beside another stag = Sizing up, flaunting own power Slow walking infront of interests = Strutting Lowering antlers at interests = Control, attempting to lead them elsewhere in a more forceful manner Laying down in shallow water = Wallowing to spread his scent Rubbing against a tree = Scentmarking Nuzzling a tree = Scentmarking Lower Antlers + Move Foward + Lower Antlers = Special combat move. "Pushing you foward" - Potentially very dangerous if used correctly (when the foe is rearing) Understand the influences ♥ Romance. * Special interest. Factors may include species, friendship and previous interaction. Mood The mood will heavily influence his behavior ingame. Health: The health will display his capability to fight. In fighting, he avoids delivering serious harm and hopes to be treated the same way. Energy: The energy will display his capability to fight, herd and any demanding tasks of the rut. Testosterone: Hormones; the higher levels, the shorter tempered he is, and this may well effect his more flirtatious behavior. Scent: Through scent, your deer can identify his mood. The stronger it is, the more territorial and aggressive he is. It can be spread to nearby trees and rocks, maybe on other deer to "mark" them.

Character Developments - Confessed - Attracted and determined most of all around his own species - Less likely to show interest towards skulled does. And has a strong judgemental dislike to skulled stag strangers - Minor mental disorders aren't genetic Notes When Virgil fights, he has a certain level of care. He will try his best to avoid serious injury to his foe, and expects the same respect in return. Virgil can be herded, but it all depends on his energy levels.
