The WAters

Deer companion spent the time observing the weather and events. Wind blows. Sand forms. Fire burns. Rain falls. An orange deer Leeloo once said. The companion deer spent most of the time watching the waters. As the water rose and fell she noticed the rain. Whether mist or droplets it coupled. Then rain drops group. As the rain did so it formed rivulets where waters had not flowed before. As rivulets gathered it formed streams. Streams become rivers. When water has no place to go it makes a lake as large as the amount of water that fell. One exception delays the whole cycle of it all. When water chills it becomes ice or snow. Companion deer watched as snowflakes gathered but instead of rivulets it formed a blanket on the ground and smaller blankets on trees and sleeping deer. At some point snow warms again and it moves back into being rivulets. As destructive as all that became in a temporary span of time so to did it cleanse the deepest tar. It is said that most of which anything breathing is made of is water. For a short time a membrane like glass holds it in a variety of forms and shapes then it leaks to return to the larger waters only to be scooped up by another glass like sack in a similar but new way. Companion deer remembered when watching births a rush a water cames before the fawn. Other deer deaths resulted into turning into water slowly as the rest decays. Usually some flowers would grow to mark the water event in that spot. Companion deer pondered how much of the water in her came from others and how much came directly from the sky.

[Jericho]

Trying to get Jericho back out there. He's a very old character and badly needs to be updated and get new art, but! Until then, here he is.

Disclaimer:
This bio will contain violence, gore and adult language. This character is 100% IC and all interactions will be taken as such. If you do not wish to interact with him, a head shake no will send me on my way.
Feel free to approach him as you please, I welcome all interaction, good or bad. If wanted, I can be reached on discord: Lbaal#4389
I like to think I'm friendly, so don't feel shy. Unlike Jericho, I don't bite. ^_^

Gravebearer

“There is no articulate resonance. The common problem, I suppose, is to have more to say than vocabulary and syntax can bear. That is why I am hunting in these desiccated streets. The smoke hides the sky's variety, stains consciousness, covers the holocaust with something safe and insubstantial. It protects from greater flame. It indicates fire, but obscures the source. This is not a useful city. Very little here approaches any eidolon of the beautiful.”

Samuel R. Delany, Dhalgren

Character names and picking them

Honestly, this is something that very much intrigued me when it came down to character names.

I come from a roleplay community where when we searched for baby players or parents. The baby players would design the baby, but the name picking belonged to the parents. Most often it was like this at least.

It really felt interesting, it's somewhat a surprise for the parents how their baby gonna look, so it's exciting. But it's also a surprise to the baby player, on what name they'll have.
It's usually not an issue often enough since parents tend to give sensible and beautiful names to their kids, plus you tend to grow attached to the given name either way.
At least for some people, picking a name can be tedious so we'll end up resorting to asking for suggestions either way.

I'm always a bit saddened that this practice was very limited in its scope. But I suppose having neigh all the freedom is pretty nifty as well.
Plus I really miss that lol, I'm one of the people that can't decide often enough and If I don't pick a sensible name soon enough the 'silly work in progress nickname' ends up the one to stay oofff...... xD

I wonder what you guys prefer?
Are you one of those people that find having a name picked for you exciting?
Do you find picking names difficult and you end up resorting to parent suggested ones anyway?
Or how do you feel like about the name themes (I once had a character that went with Shakespearean inspired names. Or names belonging to X cultures.)
Do you prefer to be in total control over the naming process (as a parent or baby)
As a parent, do you find anticipating what name the kids pick exciting?
As a kid, do you find the anticipating what name the parents pick exciting?
Would you mind or not mind having a name picked for you?

A free design and slots. Sika Japanese deer


The design. It is questionable how much is marking and how much is paint. But I always thought it would be intriguing if the white on the face were really makeup (or maybe it's really white) and the facepaint would change from instance to instance. Kabuki inspired.
Or maybe it's all just marking, who knows, not me for sure.

Regardless. This is the design up for grabs to play a fawn of The Apprentice and Hanae. (poke me for pictures of the mam if you'd rather design your own.) The fawns would be part sika deer and part tengu. They can have a human(and tengu), Japanese hawk-or-kite or sika deer facial features and anything between.
They're of Japanese descent.
