Confused =\

So I signed up for TEF last year but haven't played much until just recently. I am a little confused on a few things like how to customize my deer if that's even possible. It seems like you can? Also I read something about converting souls? If someone could lay the game out for me that would be great ^.^ I have read the FAQ but didn't find it very helpful =[

When you begin the game as a

When you begin the game as a fawn, you cannot keep spells. In roughly a month, you will become an adult and spells will 'stick' to you then. If you like what you have, in the menu under network there is an option to 'save current deer appearance'. If you lose it and want it again, directly below it is 'load previous deer appearance'.

The converting souls event is over, but you can visit the ruins to see what became of it.
The forest is mostly quiet, but if you spend time in it, you may encounter strange weather or other odd phenomena caused by "the gods".

Mostly, the forest is a serene place in which you can interact with the other stag of the forest.
If you have any other questions, please ask.
Welcome and please enjoy yourself.

Thank you so much for the

Thank you so much for the reply. I do have one question although I am not sure if you would be able to answer, see, I went to the menu under network like you said but I didn't see any option to save my deers appearance. I am not sure what happened there.

Oh, maybe you thought

Oh, maybe you thought eyestrain was talking about Control in the menu?
In Network, as you can see in the pic, beneath Network Status Connected you got the two options I have circled in blue. With the first you can save your current appearance, and with the second you can load it.

Some important things to know for latter;

As a deer:
When you disconnect, your pelt is automatically saved; If you are pelt-less at this precise moment, when reconnecting you will be too.
If you choose to play as a fawn (option available in the menu) always think of disconnecting as a deer with your appearance loaded! Or you'll lose your whole set.

-Pelt mask and antlers can only be given to you by other players.
-There are mushrooms on certain trees that give you the ability to cast masks on others.
-By rubbing against some trees, you'll make a fruit fall, and eating it make you able to give antlers.
-As for pelt, you just need to sit beside a sleeping deer, you'll hear a light "ting" meaning you have collected the spell and can now cast it.

-You can only cast a spell at once, if you eat a fruit it doesn't allow you to cast spells without limit etc..

BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBWWWWWWWWAaarf! Voilà!!!

Thanks so much for the help I

Thanks so much for the help I really do appreciate it. No, I do not have those options. I think I'm just going to uninstall and re-install the game and see what happens.

Also thanks a bunch for the tips that cleared a lot of things up!<3

No probs but... Wait!!

No probs but...
Wait!! 8D

Do you have the option "connect automatically" checked (Network, in the menu, circled in purple)? Are you logged in when these options don't appear?
If yes, what I have circled in blue should be displayed (on the right should be your picto, as you can see mine is on the pic.)
Is it the case?

Hmmm, I'm pretty sure I did but I will have to check again. Yes, I was logged in as well. Maybe it was just being glitchy...but I will get on tonight if I can and see if it's going to work. Thanks again! =D
