I have seen a lot of this on here... this misinterpretation. Here's a little helpful hint as to what each abbreviation really means and how to use it.



Character Labels: OC (Original Characters) FC (Fan Character) FMC (Fan Made Character) SIC (Self-insert Character)

Play Labels: IC (In Character) OOC (Out of Character)



[center]

"OC" means Original Character. You created this character. This is YOUR character. Played IC all the time.

"FC" means Fan Character. This is a character based heavily off one from the media. The player did not create this character and will be playing it according to how it acts/is in the media it was created to be in.

"FMC" means Fan Made Character. This means that the character is based off of media, but the character itself is not one of the real characters.

SIC or OC/OOC: The "Self-Insert Character" is the representation of a person in the forest through a character that is just like themselves and/or how they wish to be. The only things I could liken it to is a Fursona or an Avatar. They may have special stories or character traits, but it all boils down to the "OOC" part: These deer represent their players. On TEF, there are a few SIC deer. This means that these are the physical representations of their player in the forest.

"IC" means In Character. This means the character is disassociated with the player. They have their own thoughts, personality, and actions that do not represent the player. Please remember that if am IC character is mean to your deer it may not be because the player dislikes you, but the character may have a reason for his/her actions.

"OOC" means Out Of Character. This is context not related to any character. It's like IRL.

Well . . . . I've been here for one year now! One year and 2 days, if you want to be exact.
I've been a little inactive as of late, stalking, but not doing much. Sometimes, taking a break is good. However, I find that I can't leave this place entirely - I always come back. I may be revamping my characters, changing some things. We'll see.

But anyway, Happy One Year for me!!

Everyone who played, please name yourselves! Jupiter's flower patch was just invaded by friends <3 I recognize Seed, but the rest of you please name yourselves!


I simply adore the play time.

Biography

I don't really know how to go about talking about this... But sometimes, a lot recently with Seed, I've been feeling lonely and disconnected from people. And I don't like it. So I'm gonna fix it, or else just retire Seed.

So, to help me out a little, I thought I'd see what sort of friends or other stuff Seed has to start with.
So, how does your deer think of Seed? Are they friends? Do they like to hang out or would they like to hang out more often? Heck, even if they've never met -- would you and/or your deer like to become friends?

I am scorned
Not alone, not a child
not yet grown.

I am loved
Not a beast, not the greatest
not the least.

I am small

I am sweet

I am bitter

I am consider-a-ble.

Don't you see that I am me?
