The gentle weight of Herla's

The gentle weight of Herla's body against his as she too relaxed made the stag drift off in no time. He never thought he'd be able to make a friend in the Forest, not with the way he was. It was unexpected, and initially unwanted...but now, he welcomed it. He treasured it. His ears twitched when she spoke, and in his sleep he smiled softly, a gentle hum forming in his chest when she snuggled against him. Even in his subconscious he could still feel her beside him, and once more he felt at peace. Sleep well, sweet one...

Edit: Aw yeah, page three is mine! *sticks flag into ground* 8D

Ah geez...as much as Slender Man scares me, I find myself watching Marble Hornets for whatever reason. Of course, I always happen to watch it at night, and then I can't sleep. Go figure! x_x)

Quill's the red mini with the crying mask that decided to pick on Sorog. Apparently she found him "quite rude" and attempted to remedy the situation. Then tried to apologize after realizing he seemed bothered. xD

(A-ha, good to know! XD Sorog

(A-ha, good to know! XD Sorog absolutely hates to be picked on or mocked, but he tried to ignore Quill until she and the fawn started casting on him. Forest magic hurts him, so that only made him angrier. And then Quill followed him around and he was all "adufhurehagreauigtfRAGE! D8<" He's pretty hot-tempered, lol. Thanks for letting me know, and for the track! <3)

((The completely adorable

((The completely adorable mini fawn is Ciel. He has an attachment to Herla and Herla is very protective of him. Herla fought Slender Man off when he tried to come too close to the fawn.))
Uruushou's picture

(Oh, I see! My gosh, he is so

(Oh, I see! My gosh, he is so adorable... And good for Herla! I hope Slendy doesn't come back for him... :< Also, sorry that Sorog seemed randomly spastic toward Levi. Apparently she does not like Herla, and so Sorog wasn't going to take any chances. Then Levi tried nuzzling him and that really bothered him, lol. "Get off me, you crazy broad! *grumble*" XD)
Sighthoundlady's picture

((I didn’t know that Levi

((I didn’t know that Levi doesn’t like Herla, but that doesn’t surprise me, Herla is not fond of most does either, there are very few that she will allow in her company. Of course she won’t attack, she’s not the fighting sort. The only thing she ever tried to “attack” was Slendy when he went after Ciel. And that didn’t go so well for her! ))
Uruushou's picture

(I was talking to Levi's

(I was talking to Levi's player about the incident, and her reasoning is that Morikiah (the grey-pelted stag that Herla was with) is a love interest of hers...kind of. They have a love-hate relationship. XD Sorog could pretty much sense that Levi was getting upset with Herla, so he was all, "Oh hell naw, woman!" But he certainly wasn't about to get into a fight; he's learned his lesson from last time! =P Oh no...did Slendy hurt Herla? D8)
Sighthoundlady's picture

(( Herla was greatly

(( Herla was greatly traumatized by Slendy, though she doesn’t remember most of it since he wiped her memories of it. The details are in the Slender Man interaction blog http://endlessforest.org/community/seeking-out-slender-man-interactions Basically he frightened her so bad she had a panic attack and passed out. Then he painted her in blood and left her on a grave. Creeepy!

And now it makes more sense what was happening with Morikiah and Levi, Herla and Morikiah was just chillin and Levi just stomped on Herla. Poor Herla! Her flirting ways get her into trouble with the wrong does! Sianna tries to gore her every time she sees her too. The nerve! LOL! But yeah, things make more sense now!))
Uruushou's picture

(Oh my gosh, that's terrible!

(Oh my gosh, that's terrible! Geez, poor Herla... ;_; I will definitely read up on that; as much as Slendy creeps me out, I love how the interactions are going with him in-game. c8 Lol, Herla is always getting herself into trouble, silly little thing! Now, Sianna...Sorog really despises her since she purposely got Gustiro to attack him and also followed him around for quite a while at one point, despite that he was trying to scare her off. Whenever she sees him she taunts him, probably trying to get him mad and have Gustie go after him again. Gah, crafty does! XD)

(Aw omg, Ciel's sitting next to Sorog! He's all, "Oh, god. So...cute! Must...not...acknowledge! DX")
Sighthoundlady's picture

((Herla is not a fighting

((Herla is not a fighting doe, she leaves the scraping for the stags, unfortunately not all does share her sentiments. A lot would just as soon attack her as look at her. What, she was just being nice? To their stags. Hah!

And poor Sorog, trying to be good and not get into any fights…crafty does indeed!

And it’s off to bed for me now. Good night!))
Uruushou's picture

(Ah, geez... Sorog may be

(Ah, geez... Sorog may be trying to stay out of fights, but if a stag tries to attack Herla then it's no-holds-barred once more! XD And since Levi has massive antlers, he wouldn't be afraid to tussle with her either, lol! Alrighty then, good-night! ^_^)

Actually Sianna likes Sorog.

Actually Sianna likes Sorog. I don't believe she intentionally meant to have Gustiro go after him that one time, that was more or less his own doing, probably because Sorog was acting like he does when strange deer approach, lol. She still likes him even though he is aggressive towards her. BUT, that doesn't mean she wont have him or another deer go after him; if she can, and he has refused her too much, it's bound to upset her and want revenge, or it could happen if the opportunity arises and she wants some entertainment... -- No matter what happens, if she ends up clinging to him too much he would merely become an object of love only to be abused. With that comes a lot of stalking. In her mind, there is always hope that he'll come around for her.

She is mostly preoccupied with deer that do like her though, at this time, so that's good for the deer that despise her. Sticking out tongue
Uruushou's picture

(Ohh, I see now! I apologize

(Ohh, I see now! I apologize for the misunderstanding, then. Looking back, it's very likely that Sorog did start the whole thing himself, but as usual I curse my poor short-term memory! XD It's interesting how she likes him despite the fact that he dislikes her. Sianna is probably only going to get more upset, though, because Sorog will continue to try to chase her off or ignore her if she gets too close. But, I welcome the drama! If Sianna gets ticked and has a stag go after Sorog as an act of revenge, that would be awesome, lol! I am always eager for more drama to come Sorog's way since he is a bit different them my other characters. I am definitely having fun with him. c8)

No need to apologize. I would

No need to apologize. I would normally say "Yeah, it was all Sianna's fault", but not this time, hmm.

It is interesting. I think she has broke more deer than I as the player thought she could, even if they only tolerated her in short doses. I don't think that is going to help her get the point in the future with other deer; like Sorog if he keeps it up, at least not easily. I do know one deer that is currently refusing to acknowledge her existence, but it has become more of a game, haha. He moves and she keeps following him around. I do imagine if the deer is patient enough it could be effective, but know truly knows.

I wish I had the in-depth information about her still, it was quite a lot to read but for those interested it explained a lot and gave tons of insight. When I write about her now I just re-read what I wrote and think "Well, that isn't necessarily true, because she could have reacted that way". - Probably easier to just say "Only time can tell".

It may happen <: I look forward to events such as that when I do get on Sianna, not that hanging out with the deer she is on good terms with isn't enjoyable, but when something 'dramatic' happens, I just like a little spicing up.

He is definitely different! but that's what makes him such a good, interesting character. - As long as you're having fun that's all that matters. I can't think of a reason why he wouldn't be a fun character to play though x)


Fff... ramble... sorry for the huge post.
Uruushou's picture

Sianna really interests me;

Sianna really interests me; she is very complex and intriguing. I would love to read up on her more if you happen to dig that stuff up some time. c8 It'll definitely be quite a clash since Sorog will not bow to her whims, although he is prone to being manipulated. But since he has grown attached to Herla in ways he cannot explain, it will help him stay away from Sianna and ignore her attempts to seduce him.

Hey, everyone loves drama! XD Aw, thank you so much, I am very happy to hear that! ♥ I am definitely having fun; I didn't think I'd make such an interesting character after Liam, but I guess I was wrong! c8

Haha, no worries at all! <3

Lol... she can be very persistent in what she does. Hmm... let me know when it gets on your nerves.
Uruushou's picture

Lol, sure thing! Is Sianna

Lol, sure thing! Is Sianna antlerless, by the way? Because he will not harm her if she cannot defend herself, despite the fact that he dislikes her. XD

She has a double set of

She has a double set of horns; the skull and antelope ones. She was originally made with the antelope horns, but there was confusion that she was male, I learned of the DoTD antlers, so she now appears in-game with those, but her design is still the same.

Pic

She can defend herself... but to be fair, I would picture her much smaller than the average stag(Not sure how big you picture Sorog). I would go with the mini spell, but it's not really my thing. I don't want to give the impression that she is super small, plus you can't sneeze off pelts.

So yeah, she can stab deer. Lol... ....
Uruushou's picture

Ah, good to know! Thank you

Ah, good to know! Thank you for the reference. c: Welp, Sorog is as big as bull elk (same build also), so he pretty much towers over her I believe. XD Gah, I know what you mean. I thought the mini spell was awesome until I learned about the no-sneezing thing. From then on I made sure to never cast on minis! DX

Mm... I think the most that Sorog would do to her is shove her around with his antlers and perhaps bite her, but even then he wouldn't feel comfortable doing it. He'll soon learn to just ignore her, and if she comes up and nuzzles him he'll just have to grit his teeth and bear it. Then when she leaves he'll attack a tree for three hours, lol XD

Oh yeah... well, silly Sianna

Oh yeah... well, silly Sianna thinking she can overpower him anyway. - I'll take a mental note of his size.

If I had to guess(And it's about time I looked into an official size for her), I'd say she's number 16 on this list, or 19... perhaps a tad smaller on both.

LOL... dunno how she'd respond to being bit? Might put her in her place... biting is no fun. I'm curious how you would make that action known in-game? I know if you lower your antlers and press 'yes' it creates a pretty effective nomming action.

(( Just a nerdy moment here,

(( Just a nerdy moment here, wanted to comment on “biting.” A lot of people don’t realize that deer and ungulates don’t have top incisors or “biting teeth,” so they are as a result ineffective at biting for the most part. Though there are some tusked deer species and some males have some developed canine teeth, for the most part, deer can’t really deliver bites very well. Of course there are all sorts of variation in TEF deer and characters and there is the idea that the deer can be human faced so who knows what their true dentition looks like. I just tend to think of my characters “as deer” so play them as such.

Now horses, they very much do have biting teeth and make good use of them on each other, their bites can be horrible. I once knew a stallion that had picked up a groom by biting him across his midriff and threw him across the stall!

Nerdy moment over, it's off to work with me!))
Uruushou's picture

@ Sianna ~ Ah, good to know;

@ Sianna ~ Ah, good to know; I'll take a mental note of her size as well (omg she comes up to Sorog's haunch, lol)! As far as the biting emote goes...hm, that could work. Maybe also when Sorog shakes his head when he is right next to her? Although that usually means he's just trying to knock someone down. Hm...

--

@ Lady ~ Ah, I see! Thank you very much for the info, Lady; I had no idea deer skulls don't have incisors! But you're right, the human-faced deer may have such teeth, but who knows? XD To be honest though, I was thinking of having the bites be more like unpleasant pinches rather than drawing blood and tearing. Would deer be able to deliver sharp, pinching bites minus the puncturing? No one likes to be pinched! DX

Oh my god, yes. I rode horses for a couple of years, and I was more concerned about being bit than thrown off. Horse teeth and jaws are surprisingly strong, but that's amazing that the stallion threw the groom! Poor guy... Ah stallions, always so fussy!

Thanks again Lady, I appreciate the nerdy moment! C'ya! c8

I’ve been nibbled on by goats

I’ve been nibbled on by goats and sheep and it just kind of tickles, but it seems a larger animal like a deer or cow could pinch quite painfully? I never let them have a nibble to see if it hurt or not, lol!

But yes, for illustration purposes:

Deer skull. No upper incisors.
Uruushou's picture

Hm, that's a thing to ponder

Hm, that's a thing to ponder for sure! Since deer must have stronger teeth than sheep and goats, seeing as how they're larger, it might give off a painful pinching effect. And since Sorog's the size of an elk, I'd imagine his nips would hurt, eep! XD

Yeesh, now I feel silly. I should've noticed that when I was looking up references for Woden's skull! DX


Edit: Lol, Herla actually got Sorog to frolic. Achievement unlocked!

((Don’t feel silly! A lot of

((Don’t feel silly! A lot of skulls have missing teeth so it can be hard to tell sometimes. Most people just don’t realize. And I still LOVE that piece of Liam and Woden, so gosh darned adorable!

And yay! Sorog frolicked! I used to never have Herla frolic but now when she is happy or relaxed, she’ll kick up her heals a bit. Plus she likes to get stags to chase her around and tease them a bit. It’s her flirty nature coming through, all in good fun.))
