Ayala the Doe- Hide and Seek Challenge..(with a crow)..





Ayala's operator's thoughts..


Thank you so much to the pair or three who played hide and seek with me as a pair of crows last night that ended up by the mushroom circle by the pond. One gifted me
with a frog form and the other, multi colored pelts whenever I successfully found a bird again after a hunt in the Forest. I had no idea how much fun hide and seek
could be as these characters. I had many laughs over my tea to the point of tears and much mirth.





Ayala's thoughts...

It is very humbling to be outflown by a crow. But I was taught hunting skills with my ears and my eyes and to follow at a full loping run. I do love the Flying Folk and will seek
them out whenever our paths cross for a rematch. *wink*

* Video Upload Complete* Ayala's Night of the Fog-- Halloween Video

Ayala's Operator's thoughts...

I finally uploaded all the screen captures I took of my experience visiting the Forest on Halloween Night. I had a lot but kept the ones which
best expressed what my point of view was like during the hour or so I was online. I made a video of the images I took and added some
music for effect.

Ayala the Doe's thoughts are expressed in the video which is 297 MB in size and lasts about 4 1/2 minutes.

Please select 1080 HD quality for the best resolution and soundtrack depth.

Before you start looking around, yes, there is also thunderstorm track playing on this page to help with the video's Halloween feel.

Ayala the Doe's Red Deer Beach Race Tradition Begins...

Ayala's operator's thoughts..

It's been over a year since I've visited with my character in the Forest. The pending arrival of All Hallow's Eve has tempted me to return and try my luck in chasing Velocity to gain a Zombie pelt and skull for the evening. Can I do it?

We shall see on Thursday if my country's holiday coincides with the designers. It is fall in my part of the world, soon to be winter. The Forest will be a few minutes get away to escape the cold and snow when I seek relaxation and its simulated peace.

Perhaps there'll be a Rut and I'll find a pal to befriend each night to form a friendship for the winter. Who knows? Maybe I'll resurrect Ayala's red fawn racing days custom for a whole month to see if I can start a new tradition in the Forest. (Chasing around the pond and back to the waterfall idol before your "red" color wears off.)

Ayala Journeys Home..

Ayala's operator's thoughts.

I have been away for many months from the Forest.

Over the spring and summer, many friends and family have passed
on from this life. But busy summer activities, EMT work, and
fire department volunteering have restored my balance. One pride and joy
I've had now has been creating a huge outdoor room and garden. I can spend
countless hours out there after work and at times, it can feel like a real life
Endless Forest when I'm surrounded by all the flowers.







I even saved and raised a tiny monarch caterpillar, made a blog and
video journal about her until she was ready to be freed to fly away
on July 4th, my country's birthday. Smiling

Ayala's thoughts:

I am still without a fawn child. The buck's time in September was exciting, my first,
but I have not seen my dear black and white love in many weeks. Perhaps he's moved
on to a different path of the heart.

Ayala's Magic Halloween.. (Screenie heavy).. :)

Ayala's operator's thoughts.

I was so disappointed to miss the abiogenesis on Halloween night. I had to work. But on
daylight savings day, I did see some cool things in the night at De Drinkplaats. A giant
goldfish, a heiroglyphic pot full of fire, a green firework, lightning.. They appeared
randomly, once every few minutes while I stared toward the fountain near the back
of the well at the edge of the mushroom circle while still inside of it while manifesting
as a squirrel from a fountain change and having a squirrel shape in normal play.
I wonder if this is another cool secret that I found by mistake.

Was this Michael or Auriea or something that happens at night during holidays there?
Maybe one of you can tell me if special effects from abiogenesis happen at De Drinkplaats at night.


I also encountered an echo deer effect, one golden deer with natural antlers and purple
flowers was dancing with around ten multiple copies of himself and they followed each
other in action, rearing at the same time, laughing, dancing,etc. This happened by the
pond.

Then they formed a conga line and later on a circle. See my screenies in this post.
Is this that one individual whom people are saying who can hack in multi-deer tricks?

This happened right after the strangest game glitch I've ever seen, I had a devout pelted
copy of myself following right next to me to my left out of love glow range and it did the
exact same things I did at exactly the same time perfectly without any delay. It was like
a white mirror image ghost. I could even sit with this echo and mess with game settings.
I was in the Blue Bowl when it happened on Nov 1st just running through it randomly
in the brown deer pelt with candle antlers wearing the deer muzzle mask.

I finally caught a sunset. Still wishing to wake up to a rainy day in the forest.

But, I digress.

Ayala The Doe-- Testing out Character Art Avatars...

Ayala's operator:

Testing out animations for a signature avatar for my deer character to see if they display correctly...

**Graphics heavy for those with earlier type OS and computer systems users who cannot handle large file sizes**

I make a hobby of creating image graphics from photos with a few vintage free programs. Smiling










Could you let me know if these display okay? Thanks so much.
