Deer of the forest,

My recent hiatus from the forest has put me in the mind to tell a tale. The tale will be of Yorres recent absence and return, and will include several of the deer in the Forest and their reactions to his return and the prophecy he was granted while stranded in Limbo. I wanted to post a short list of the deer I intend to include in the story in the hopes of gaining their players' permission to charcterize and write about them. Some deer are only mentioned in conversation with others, while others will take on more central roles. I'm hoping to write a compelling tale you will all enjoy, but I must admit I'm a little rusty at the game of fiction.

So here is a short list. If you see your name please let me know if it's okay to write about your deer. I will happily supply you with more details (i.e. the context of your deer's appearance) if asked. Also: if you'd like to be in this tale and don't see your name, please ask and I will do my best to find a part for your deer to play in this story. This list is by no means complete and I will likely be adding new names as the story unfolds - I have no idea how it will end!

Again: this may not be a complete list, and I may not use everyone I'd like to.
If your character is part of the central event, the prophecy, I will attempt to contact you individually to iron out the details. I hope this works! Thanks to all of you..

I am officially back online and able to enter the forest!
For now, I'm still getting my computer to act and look right, but I will be sending Yorres into the Forest throughout the day.
Hope to see you all in there. I missed you guys!

To those who care- my PC just went belly-up, so no TEF for Io Rez for a while.
Hopefully should have the matter resolved within a few days.
That is all.

Festival FAQ

Can I come?/ Who's invited? - Everyone! Be there!

What is this? - It's a Party! We'll commune around and about the Playground and give candle antlers (candtlers?) to every deer who passes by. Every hour, on the hour, we will all dance in celebration as midnight passes in each time zone. Don't forget to stop by the Twin Gods Hill to pay your respects and celebrate!

When is it?/ What time is that where I live?: The unofficial start will be 11:59PM GMT and will run until people stop showing up sometime in 2010.
Don't think you've missed out if you can't make the start time, as deer from every timezone should be popping in to ring in their respective New Years!

Your Friend,
Io Rez

UPDATE - Well, that was very successful if clumsily executed. Thanks a million to everyone who showed up, and apologies if Yorres was asleep when you arrived - we had unexpected New Year's guests and I had to play the friendly host for a little while.

Pics to be posted as soon as I get them cropped and edited! Thanks again and Happy New Year.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by yesterday. It was a wonderful time and I saw a lot of great interaction btw you guys. Convention pics to be posted soon!

Thanks again!! Stay tuned for the announcement of the Second Annual Bland Days Skinny Dip in November!

Well, it's almost time for our (Lightbringers) second annual pre-Halloween gathering, and recent grumblings in the woods tell me we need to come together as LBs and a community now more than ever.

It will be centered around the Old Oak, as before (for those who actually remember), and we'll be greeting and playing with everyone who stops by - sort of a temporary in-forest hospitality lodge/ welcome wagon.

I would like to keep this event going from Noon to midnite, EST, on the 24th of this October, which means I'll need some help from you LBs and anyone else who might like to join the festivities. Volunteers are needed and welcome!

As always, I'm posting this well in Advance, so feel free to flood me with helpful advice, suggestions, and abuse.

Your friend,
IoRez
