Introductions are probably unnecessary for someone like 21, a figure of the common folklore.
The Mother of the forest, the first female to walk among the stags, and a gentle guardian of the children and strangers to this world.
Her demeanour is generally friendly and accommodating; endlessly patient and boundlessly loving, tempered with a stubborn inquisitiveness and a certain degree of pride. A living archetype... mostly.
She is inexplicably distant at times and tends not to confide in others. Neither will she speak too much at once, especially about herself.
Strangest of all, she firmly refuses to take a lover or bear fawns of her own...
The childless Mother. A funny old spinster, 21.
Name •
She carries at least two: "21" being a colloquial transliteration of her pictogram, and her true name Ephra.
Age •
(Jan. 21, 2006)
At 4 real years of age, she may well be the oldest deer around. Besides the twin gods, anyway.
Appearance •
A regular white-tailed deer, brown and long-limbed.
Voice •
I think something like Tilda Swinton, who narrates throughout this music playlist. In text, a dull green.
Old Haunts •
A few of her favourite places.

I’m not good at writing so if there's more you'd like to know, feel free to go a little deeper into the woods and leave a message for 21 herself.
8DD I adore 21 XD She's one

Ohh, Ephra, I envy and
I love 21. She has got to be one of my favorite deer--and doe--of them all, and that's within a 3,000 or so member span! :) If and when I decide to not be so lazy, I'll dig through my drawers and see what I can do about some fanart, although it would and never will be able to compare to the beauty of your own pieces, let alone all of the other amazing art you've been presented.
And recently you made a signature--I just, I --ergh! I want your creativity! It's just so simple but thought-up, the way it blends into both the comment background colors no matter which "color" you post in. I ...egjklsaa. I want to be you. I want Her to be as original as 21, to have a set history in the making of the game like you had been, being the first doe. I want to be able to not yell at others and have a kind heart.
I don't know. :| That dream proves impossible, but that doesn't mean I have to stop loving you as a wonderful friend, whether you feel the same about annoying little Allice-Her or not. <3
Oh gosh! I am not worthy of
And I don't know about being kind hearted... I'm sure you've noticed me being rather snide at times. I am pretty even tempered, but mostly I am very restrained! I appreciate and envy your sincerity with your emotions. I find it difficult just letting on that I'm sad or angry, but you are able to be so expressive (and eloquent to boot!)
Please don't put yourself down! You are fabulous, your deer are fabulous, and I enjoy playing and nature watching with you in the forest. I really ought to draw something for you, since it's the only way I know how to express my gratitude. I can't believe you wrote all that out for my sake.

HEY NOW. :B You aren't
LOL THOSE DUMB PIXEL DEER. Those things are so ugly. Q___Q I can never get them to turn out right although I am glad people love them so much. I just wish I could be happy about them as those that received them are. The old ones, especially, are horrid. xD Granted back then I thought my pixel skills were pretty decent but now I see them and want to toss them all behind my back. Besides, I don't see how that is making TEF history. D8 Rather I just roused everyone from their happy slumber and made them all gifts so that I could be loved and known. -guilty- Not sure it has worked yet. D:
ANYHOW I am glad you seemed to enjoy my comment because I can tell you did. :U <3 Herart is not needed lols you did fine expressing your gratitude in words. Stay safe, oi?
p.s. No, I have never seen you snide. D: !
Twenty-One, to me, is like
I know you're going to disagree with me, but please see it through my eyes. You have made a wonderful deer in the Forest. Twenty-One doesn't need to be flashy or different (you've got deer like Quad already taking care of that ), but she is anything but boring or snide!
*much nuzzles* Don't be so hard on yourself!
*snuzzles Ephra* I've always
I've always loved 21 and how you played the game. From the beginning you've come off very motherly. Sometimes I wish I could turn into a doe and become like 21, but that would be silly. There is only one Ephra! Though you may think yourself unoriginal, you are definitely original. You don't have to be some extravagant, noisy character to be original. ]
But anyways. I love how you organized your bio. Very well done. I enjoyed learning more about her.
PS: That song is beautiful, I had to listen to the entire piece. Wow.

It was nice to meet you in
The second time...I wasn't sure what to think. I still felt shy, as shy as I felt when I met Butch, and I was distracted. Whem Solphax began to stalk me, I really wanted someone to protect me...I was tempted to sit by you, but feared you'd anger at me if I brought him over to you...
*hides*...I'm sorry if I offended you in any way...
Anzel! I would be the last
Please don't feel belittled by me! I try to be generally unremarkable and keep out of too much drama. I like being humble because I seem to be more approachable that way. But I can understand being overwhelmed by the other deer- I was probably being a little silly myself. I sat with you again for a little bit when you were a frog (I think) but I made sure not to go too close, I thought you might still have been too shy for my company.
--------
If I'm too shy for company,
I just felt belittled because...well, you're one of the most famous deer here, and I thought you were much older than me. It's nice to know you're not, I was beginning to feel small and young and stuff x3
Oh yes...do you have any clue who I chased when I was a frog? I wish I'd gotten a picture! That was fun. I was like, ROARbit, and they were like, AHHH...
I don't think I sat much as a frog, heh...
I was just about to edit my
Luckily, I am only an old fogey in the forest timeline! In all other respects I am an irresponsible kid. I don't know if I followed you around when you were a frog, I think I might have just sat there where you had been. The next time I saw you, if I'm remembering correctly, was the dance line at the ruins, except for some reason you couldn't see me. Maybe that was when the servers were changed again.

Her is right. Your art is
My deer is male, and I was thinking of naming him Evav. Or possibly Arrow, because of his pictogram. He's still a fawn but is very mature, reserved and always looks out for others. n_n A bad thing about him is that he can't swim. D=
Anyhow, I applaud you for how much work and time you spent on all of your pieces. They are truly something to be proud of, if you ask me. I also have a huge passion for similar things, and I would love to be an artist when I grow older - more than anything!
I also admire how you set out the profile. You made a great effort and should be pleased with the outcome.
Kindest regards,
Enkouwolf.
Hey, I think we met
Thank you so much for your kind words! My profile seems kind of simplistic to me, and my drawings usually don't turn out right, but I am slowly improving with practice. I think it would be so awesome to be an artist, that's what I want to do too. I hope you will post some of your own works here, because I'm very interested to see them now!

Thanks so much for playing with my little fawn Jhai. Really, because, for some reason, not all deer seem to enjoy a fawns' company.
I hope to see 21 again in the forest!
