Exploring the Forest

It was really overwhelming to suddenly find yourself in such a place like Endless Forest. And it really took a while before I could enjoy myself. It seemed like my deer body didn't belong to me. Thats not how a normal deer must feel, is it? And its not if it was hard to be a deer, but on the contrary, it felt so much simplier than... than something else... than someone else I must have been... It drove me crazy at first. But soon I grew to like it.


I had lots of questions to ask. But the Shaman was not that easy to find. I spent lots of time near the Twin Gods Hill but The Shaman was not there. I guess it ment that mostly I should discover the Forest's secrets on my own. I won't say I dislike secrets, as long as they are not scary, but it really freaked me out when the scilent statues of the Gods made my skin glow... Only later did I found out it was a kind of a blessing and came to get it on purpose...


I have to say that its really unsetteling to find yourself in a place like this with lots of strangers... I was really scared of other Deer at first. Partly because some of them had very unusual and frightening looks... But despite my fears, the Deer of the Forest were those who made my acclimatization easer.


I met lots of Deer and fawns like myself. They showed me around and taught me to handle the Magic of the Forest. But as funny as it is, even they, who lived here much longer, had the same questions as I did, and were in search of answers. Some of the Deer were sad and tortured by the uncertainty and felt insecure, some of them were happy and had this amazing spirit, that made all the fears stay far behind when you're galoping through the Forest.

~ Deer character developing questions ~

This may seem like the bandwagon, and I suppose that in a way it is, but what I'm trying to do is really develop my characters. This is an opportunity for people to ask (please!) questions to any of my deer about their history, likes, dislikes and such-and-such. As philosophical or nonsensical as you like, BUT I'm trying to avoid one-track-record stuff such as "What do your deer think of mine?", mate/crush questions and MUDPEIS??!!
...well, serious mate/crush questions are perfectly fine and encouraged, seeing as it's part of the backstory and that, but you get the idea. ...I hope. ^_^;

The deer:

Liëka ~ backstory practically done, just a few minor details missing
FIU ~ not much of a backstory, pretty standard
~ hardly any backstory, just born lul
Artemis/Hunter ~ backstory done
Troll ~ backstory done
Deer Of Deermuda ~ backstory done
Mourner ~ backstory practically done, just a few minor details missing
Iranu and Uvavu ~ backstory sort of done, but I do enjoy questioning them, lul.
Rakiël ~ backstory done

Irish Elk doesn't really need a backstory, he is just what it says on the tin (though can I just use this opportunity to point out he is MALE. Don't know where the idea he's female came from. ^^)

I'm not intending for people to ask more questions to those with less/more backstory, just... ask where you're interested, or if you're not interested, ask anyway, please? ^^; I'm trying to disassociate this from the bandwagon so that more people will ask, hopefully. Because this is such a great way for myself to get to know my own deer, and for you to get to know them too, and it really works for me.

Thankyou!

.:Deer Updates:. --- .:CURRENTLY ONLINE: Cata & Paya:.

I think I will only keep this until the Live Map finally returns. :>
Ohyes: I won't edit all I wrote when I go out of TEF. "Currently Online" means which of my deer "was" online, and only "is" if you see the picto on the live map... if you can follow me. xD

Antics 2-28-09

I planned to have Spade in, but upon loading up the Forest, I spotted a familiar picto I haven't seen in awhile.
Okami! So Radeon switched in for a reunion. =D
They had a little sparring match for fun to celebrate. I wish I'd gotten screenshots of it. >.< But here's basically how the rest of Radeon's day went:



"Farewell."
Then he stuck around with this fawn from the group for awhile. =]

The deal with Shyla...

Ok...so anyone who knows my middle character Shyla might have noticed I don't play her too often anymore. Such is the curse of the middle child I suppose XD

Well because Shyla explains nothing herself and I feel sorta bad for a couple of her friends I guess I'll try to reveal a little of what she's feeling right now.

First I was to start off by saying I feel like I'm losing her as a character. She was never a very popular deer >< her only saving grace was that a few others made fawns around the same time, though these players were already my friends anyways so I think if they werent she still would have been ignored XD Anyways...now pretty much all but 2 of those people from her childhood are out of her life. She does try to make friends but I stay true to her standoffish shy personality and that makes it hard to keep anyone around for long. So I'm kind of in limbo with her, only bringing her on now when Ark and Paavo are on, though even those relationships have their problems...

Shyla's become nervous about being affectionate. The whole deal with Lier and Paavo has left her confused and somewhat afraid of showing love towards anyone, even Ark. She's not the most stable of girls and has about no self esteem so of course she's going to take all this out on herself >< Sorry guys I know it might upset you or make you feel guilty for me saying that but it's just what is ><
Lier seems to be ignoring her..a.voiding her...whatever. I don't know. She's terrified of him anyways now ><
Ark isnt on very often, though I don't blame Rai for this because I rarely am in the mood to ut Shy in these days and Ark is kind of in the same boat as her. He seems to be the only one who really understands her but at times doesnt seem all too sure how to handle it (I dont either so Im with ya buddy XD) which leaves the air kinda awkward...

Pi'yu's Endless Journey #1, 25th February 2009

Okay, I finally decided to write Pi’yu’s diary entry again after I deleted it by accident! ;D Stupid me...
This is about Pi’yu, the blind aura seer, and his day at the 25th February. =)

I woke up… and felt cold.
Everything was cold. I wondered what happened. I looked around but couldn’t see any Vlack auras or something which could be the reason for this coldness.
But then I noticed that the cold wasn’t inside of me, as it has been so many times. Nope, it was stranger: it was cold around me.
In the Shawnee land, it had never been cold. It was a warm, yes, a hot location. Anyway, I knew what was going on here. I’ve heard a lot about it.
Snow. It was snowing.




Curiously, I walked around and tasted the snow with my tongue. It was cold. I quaked.
If just my fur were longer…! It could protect me from the cold…
I walked around, avoiding the trees’ auras. Here stood so many trees everywhere. It confused me…
I finally came to The Old Oak. Its aura was burning my “aura eyes” with its brightness.
I walked away from it and sat down in a mushroom circle… I sniffed their tasty smell. But I wasn’t so hungry.
But I was tired, so I fell asleep…

When I woke up, everything was different.
I wanted to stand up, but I didn’t. No, I didn’t stand up, I
flew [i]up.
I felt smaller. I still could see auras and such, so at least all my sentience hadn’t changed.
But I knew what happened. Cata told me about that in the Location Of The Offline Deer: in The Endless Forest you were able to cast Shapeshifting Spells on somebody else. Just like you could change his appearance with masks, pelts and antlers. You could be transformed into a bird, a squirrel, a frog, a bat and a mini-deer.
And now, I felt like a bat.
It was weird. I hadn’t believed him at first. But it seemed to be true. Wow. Wowowow.

Birth

...The Deer of Endless Forest don't know where they come from. They don't know how they ended up here. Thats what a Great White Shaman that lives near the Twin God's Hill told me. Deer are born from light. They begin their journey in the forest as fawns, learn to use their magic and ... And what happens next depends on the Deer himself. Some stay in the Forest, exploring its quiet grounds, others, somehow, find their way into the outlands. The Shaman says that Deer are spirits of nature. Ancient as the Universe itself. Deer are guardians of all living things. Spirits of The Endless Forest... When The Deer is born, he is given a Name. A Sign to carry proudly in his antlers. Deers don't know how to pronounce their own names, but they have no problem memorising them visualy to discern each other... Nobody knows how the Sign is chosen by The Twin Gods. Some think it depends on the circumstances of their birth...

... I think my name has something to do with Water. I opened my eyes near some kind of stream at dawn of a gloomy day. It began to rain soon after I appeared in the Forest. And, maybe its just me, but I feel that my magic is stronger by the water... So there I was, a little, helpless fawn in a great big forest, filled with strange noises and smells. My feet were shaking.. Who am I? Where am I? What should I do? I opened my mouth and tried to call someone, to see if someone was around... My voice was so loud that it scared me. Who was I to ruin the stillness and calmness of this place? It was getting dark. First drops of rain fell on the grass. With my legs still shaking I made a few steps. Suddenly, I saw something white and glowing among the trees. I moved towards the glow... In a while I stepped on the Hill with two stone figures. From the first sight you could tell that they obtained some gigantic Power. Near them stood a wonderfully white Deer...Thats how I saw The Twin Gods for the first time and met The Shaman...

sorry you can ignor it i had to get this truth off my mind.

the coldest of hearts

i look around to have a look,
my sight is weaking,
i just sit there looking at nothing,
i wear my glasses even though i don't care for my sight,

for weeks a walk in this hollow corpse of flesh,
i walk to school in the rain and don't care for my umbrella,
i do not care for the cold that touched my flesh or the threat of a sickness,
i watch the passing of the sidewalk as i go,
for even though my sight is falling away i do not fear being without it,
the only fear in my soul is that of loss of my visions,

when i get to the school i don't speak,
i just watch the passing of time waiting for the ring of the bell for homeroom,
i learned to pull back into myself and not speak for words are nothing to me,
my soul is cold but i don't care,
it is my harber on the icy sea of knowlege,

when i tried to trust someone they turned and betrayed me to the partent,
i hate them as much as my live and family,
my soul is empty of cares,
force to sign a word that i did not like,
that ripped at my soul and make me wont them dead,
