Okay, so Manticore has been in and out of the forest this past week because of its human's AP exams. Its human plans to write a bio for him soon and being still a bit of a newb, it has has a few questions:
What are the fawns without pictograms? I've seen quite a few and I don't know if they're new or not. Is it a glitch?
I'm having a hard time grasping this speechless communication mojo. Bow to say hello and goodbye right? That is, I bow once to say hello and frolic with other deer and after a while I bow again and run off to elsewhere. I don't know if that's the most polite way to say it but I hope wiser deer can teach me the right way to do things.
Meeting a band of deer is really awkward for me. I bow and stand around but I'm not too sure how to interact any further. I've cast spells on deer and received mixed results. I apologize if I caused anybody any trouble.
I also turned a fawn into a squirrel. they seemed to be even more of newbie than me and didn't know how to sneeze it off. I'm really sorry fellow fawn! I ran off to get a spell and tried to change you back but it didn't work. D: I'm very sorry!
Everyone seems to have such nice exchanges but I've got a lot of practicing to do before I become a socialite in the Forest. Thanks in advance for any advice you give ! (:
I don't know about the fawns
There are no rules as to how you should communicate! Bowing, does, in fact mean hello, but you can use it any way you like. I know what's going on when someone bows and leaves; it simply means goodbye. So if I understand it, then I'm sure others will to. I do the same thing.
As for the groups of deer, I can't really say. Normally a deer will do something and you can mimic them--this gets things going. That or, if they do something, your best shot is to react--as in, if someone does something incredible or shocking, you do the "shocked" emote.
But there are no rules, you play how you want! <3
For the nameless fawns, I
Sorry if I don't make any sense ^^;
