Quad's Candid Camera - 11/28/09



Let me know if you are any of the deer in these photos. One of the purposes of Candid Camera is to get to know some of my fellow Forest dwellers Eye

Quad's Candid Camera - 11/25/09



Hey if you see Quad running around, please enchant him with some pelt spells until he gets his Beluga pelt (the darkblue and white one). I had a glitch where someone cast a pelt spell on him at the new fountain, and he lost the pelt in the process. I appreciate the help.

A little tired so I won't do captions, but Blixt had a lot of fun with all of the deer he met today Eye

Hooves of Lightning - Blixt's Origin

(I wanted to write this last night but the servers were down, so here it is now. Might edit it later on)

On a cold November afternoon, the subtle silence of the forest was shattered by the sounds of a great battle. In a clearing near a cliff side, two bucks clashed at each other, their antlers locking up as each struggled to overpower the other. Their muscles tightened and both snorted and gritted their teeth as the spar continued. They slowly inched toward the cliff, both with the same idea of throwing the other off into the abyss.

Nearby a doe looked on, watching as her mate fought the opposing buck. He looked back at her for a moment, and at that time his rival caught him off guard and stabbed into his shoulder with an antler. The buck cried out, but then thrashed back at him, getting a clean scratch at his face and raking an eye. "Blixt!", the doe cried to the mate. He staggered back a little, surveying his shoulder wound for a second - it was deep and already bleeding, but he was not losing any strength due to it. "I'm fine, I'm fine!", he called back to his doe, and then lowered his antlers at the rival. His foe had a split second to open his scratched eye back up, at the time that Blixt charged at him. Lowering his antlers at the last second, the two clashed once again, Blixt driving him closer to the edge of the land. "Blixt, wait!", his rival began to say, but Blixt interrupted, "No, Dond, you will not speak! You threatened my doe, and I will not tolerate it!" Dond pressed back at him, "She was never yours to begin with!", he cried, and making the right movements, he threw his head toward the cliffside, making Blixt's body go with it.

Blixt barely caught the edge of the cliff, their antlers still locked.

Info for my Secret Santa - 2009 Edition

Update - 12/14/09 - SPECIAL NOTE TO MY SECRET SANTA! If you are unable to get your gift done by Christmas, I'll be glad to give you a little more time to get it done. My birthday is on the 30th so it would be like getting a birthday present instead of a christmas gift. Anyway, if this does become the case, please let me know by Christmas that you are my Santa and that you need more time. Hope that helps! Eye

I'd prefer to have a sent gift rather than an artwork - it's just more meaningful to me. If you cannot send something, though, I will accept an artwork. If you decide to do an artwork, any of the subjects for my fundraiser would be fine.

If you plan to buy anything for me, please don't let it be too expensive - I'd much rather have something cheap that has some kind of sentimental or special meaning to you. If you needed any inspiration or ideas, here is a list of things I like:

My favorite animals -
Deer related stuff (Reindeer are cool!)
Goat related stuff
Pronghorn Antelope stuff
Dachshund stuff

(I love plush animals, by the way)

Anything handmade, can be TEF and/or Deer related.

Nature-themed things
A magnet (can be anything)
Anything military related (or involving camoflauge)

Anything relating to a foreign (non-USA) country! I am very multicultural and love to have things from various places.

Anything relating to you're city/state/(country) that maybe you can't find anywhere else.

Anything unusual.

A CD from a band you like. Here is a complete list of bands and albums I own. I love all kinds of music so don't be afraid to send anything unusual!

Quick question - how should I play Blixt?

So I finally got Blixt the set he wanted:



But now the question is...what kind of personality should he have? I'd like him to be unique and not like my other deer, although the first time I played him, he acted a lot like Quad would

So I have Quad as my silly/friendly deer, Zephyr as my semi-shy doe, Pent who is just crazy and talks to trees, and Trunks who wanders off by himself but loves to accompany fawns. What kind of personality do you see with Blixt?

I don't want a violent deer. That's for sure. But should he be a very serious deer (never dancing, laughing, ect.)? Should he be a loner? Should he have some wierd quirk, like he only hangs around does (he does have a picto that looks like a pimp hat XD)?

I guess what I really mean by all this is that I'm trying to decide on his personality and background.

LOL I just don't know how I should portray him! Any suggestions please?

Blixt's Candid Camera - 10/28/09

I decided to toss Blixt into the Forest for a bit. He found a fawn who helped him get his pelt, and then Laruna chose the candle antlers.


Not bad, really! Please let me know if you were this fawn, I really appreciated your help getting his pelt.


We then found a group of deer at the Ruins




Blixt ran into SS, who he played with for a while.


Then the two of them found Laruna and were silly for a bit.

Sorry I left guys, but I was getting really tired after a while. Anyway, thanks for the fun guys!

A package waiting for me (XD geez Pega!)

Today was a long day. I had school from 7:00 to 1:00, and then work from 3:00 to 8:00. So I was away from home the whole day.

So I got home and found my dinner waiting on the counter. As I went to pick it up, I noticed a little package sitting next to it, addressed to "Quad" from "Pega".

And it contained the following letter:







As well as a Trained Pronghorn Magic: The Gathering card staring up at me. But behind it I noticed there were other things in there...




XXXDDD geez, I feel so loved!

The cards show one of my deer representing one of the trading cards in the game:

Quad (left) represents Purity, one of my favorite cards in the game for obvious reasons - he's practically a talux from my stories!

Pent (the middle) is the Trained Pronghorn that Pega sent the card of, because Pent is a pronghorn.

And Trunks (right) represents Emerald Oryx, a card I had sent Pega earlier.

ASFAFDFASDFASFASFASF I'm gonna treasure these Pega!! Thank you!! You really made my day today! Smiling
