...my group? *I'll bump a few more times and then leave it if noone else is interested*

Don't worry, it's only four deer, and I appreciate anyone who does it. Here's all the info you need:

Quad
Mask - Real Deer Mask (can be either a mask or his real face, whichever you choose do the same for Zephyr)
Pelt - Beluga
Antlers - Zombie
Eye Color - Light Brown
Expression - Quad usually has a soft smile, or can be drawn nuzzling Zephyr.
Additional - His cheeks tend to puff out just slightly.

Zephyr
Mask - Real Deer Mask (can be either a mask or her real face, whichever you choose do the same for Quad)
Pelt - Beluga
Antlers - Peacock
Eye Color - Brown
Expression - Zephyr should look somewhat troubled, or can be nuzzling Quad back.
Additional - She has a slight scar that runs the length of her belly.

Pent
Mask - Real Deer, and it would be his actual face.
Pelt - Antelope
Antlers - Beluga
Eye Color - Light Blue
Expression - Pent tends to be preoccupied with something else, so he'd be looking away or tilting his head.
Additional - His face and neck should be more like a pronghorn

Trunks
Mask - Forest Spirit
Pelt - Real Deer with Cream Belly
Antlers - Real Deer
Eye Color - Red
Expression - Trunks basically has no expression as his face is always smiling. He'd most likely be sitting.
Additional - Trunks is supposed to look a lot like the Forest Spirit from Princess Mononoke, so feel free to use him as a reference.

I appreciate anyone who does this, and can't wait to see how it turns out.

Then something sent a shiver down her spine. "Such anger...", a voice came from the shadows of the trees, "Such beautiful anger..."

A shadow rushed out from the trees, knocking the doe down. She gasped in shock, looking up to see a black, slender creature staring down at her - a stoat. "Wha...?", she tried to say, but her voice was giving in. "Shhh...", the stoat said to her, "Just let the infection take you over."

Zephyr's body became wrapped in the substance the stoat was made of. She tried to cry in pain, but she couldn't make a sound now. She struggled, but when enough of her was covered, she relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.

Name - Iugulare (yuu-guu-LAH-reh)

Means - "to cut the throat" in Latin, comes from ugulare mortuos, "to cut the throats of the dead"

Nickname - The Stoat

Gender - Female

History - A weasel-like creature with powers of infection and manipulation. Her body is composed fully of a black goo-like substance that burns on contact and grows as far as it can on a host body. Victims wear themselves out struggling to remove the infection, and as it grows they become drowsy and eventually fall into a deep sleep. While the victim is asleep, they have pleasant yet distorted dreams, and almost always they don't realize they are dreaming and believed that meeting the Stoat was actually a nightmare.

Hey guys. Quad decided to take a break, so Zephyr romped around the Forest a bit today. Unfortunately, it was a little empty, but she did run into Toukan and some other deer, and got some closeups at the Playground too! Here is the first edition of Quad's Zephyr's Candid Camera!


Meeting up with Toukan

Fun dance party with Tuna and Bale

Sorry to whoevers deer this was, but Zephyr was hungry.

Here's some closeups of a DotD deer! Let me know if this was you.





And then a bunch of Toukan:



Sorry about the udders





Epic head tilt!

Trying to get back into taking screenshots again. I won't caption these just because I think they can speak for themselves, but I had a lot of fun with you guys at the Playground! I tried to take close-ups when I could, and I hope someone got a few of Quad (he tried to pose when he thought someone was taking them). Anyway, let me know if you're in these screenshots - I'd love to know who Quad was playing around with!


Sitting with Michael!

Quad: You don't see me!

Actually, I'm working my way to be environmental, or as you may call, 'green'! I'm starting slow and will work my way up to living an environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Baby steps:
-- Recycling --
Aluminum cans are easy to recycle, and you can find places that will even pay you for aluminum! Recycled aluminum can be reused again and again, and saves not only natural resources but energy and money as well. My family actually already recycles aluminum - we generally have a large bag that we place crushed cans into.

Batteries are often overlooked, but I am recycling them because in a landfill they often leak out many substances such as zinc, lead, nickel, manganese, cadmium, and alkalines into the water table below the landfill. Though it's not a hugely recognized hazard, it's not stuff you want in your water! For this measure I have bought a large plastic container, which is hanging in our pantry and is labeled for batteries. So when one of my family members goes to throw a battery away, hopefully they'll see the container and toss them in.

Plastic bags will be a little tougher for me to stop using. We use them for so many things in my family, especially with waste disposal. My brother recently gave us some fabric shopping bags from his workplace that I will get into the habit of using eventually. I always take a plastic bag with me when I walk Brandy to pick up her poop, but I am going to look at our local pet stores for biodegradable poop bags. For now, I'm going to have to make due with the plastic bags. My workplace has a container for recycling plastic bags, so we will start to use less of them and recycle what we don't need. Plastic bags are costly to make as well as to clean up, so it's a very good thing to recycle them.

Hey guys, I'm writing a new story that will be featured on the The Shady Grove forums. Come check it out!

I STILL HAVE SLOTS AVAILABLE! The story has started but new 'victims' can be added (I also love ideas for experiments if you have them)

And finally, below is part of the prologue...

"Did anyone ever tell you how beautiful you were?", Mazey asked softly. The young doe didn't reply, her head tucked into her mother's side as she slept. Mazey let out a sigh, "Oh...my little Zephyr."

She was beautiful, more than she'd like to admit. The young doe could have had just about any stag that set eyes on her. The problem was that Zephyr didn't want to fall in love. A few handsome stags had asked her before if she wanted a mate, and her response was always, "Go find someone prettier."

Why did she hurt so much? Was it the loss of her father? Or was it...

LOL since everyone's making new deer, maybe I could bring Trunks back!



Though he's dead in one of my stories, I don't think it matters.

Now I gotta think about a set for him... I might even give him the Forest Spirit mask since I never see anyone wear it (and since I recently saw Princess Mononoke )

Maybe I'll base him off of the Forest Spirit



EDIT!



Who is this handsome devil spirit? Perhaps Trunks, the fawn who died early in his life, was reborn into a wandering spirit. Maybe there is more to this deer than I expected.

I really must thank my friend who helped me with the set, too:



Please let me know if this was you. It was a pain to find someone who would cast spells this late at night (well for me), and I appreciate your help, and had a lot of fun hanging out with you too!

Trunks was running around earlier. I didn't really know anyone who was on, but I'm already having some fun with this character!

EDIT 2

Why the heck do people keep casting spells on him as soon as they meet him? It's getting a little annoying, like they don't approve of his look. Seriously, I think it would be appropriate to cast spells on someone who has, let's say, the butterfly pelt and the peacock mask on, but come on, Trunks' set is acceptable!

Jeez, lotta people with fashion sense in the Forest apparently.

Thought I'd re-do this list! The reason why is because I've changed a lot of things on my MP3 player, removed a few things, and added a lot of more music! So I thought I'd see how the new results would turn out.

The old topic is here, and please feel free to do this if you'd like. Also if your name is not listed, let me know and I'll add you!

So here it gooooeeeesss! (And if you get something wierd, don't blame me )

Ran into Kinsha, who turned Quad into a squirrel! So he started to have fun, while Kinsha bombarded squirrel-Quad with head tilts!

Keeping him still to take closeups ended up being a hilariously difficult task, as he kept looking at Quad and tilting his head! Anyway, here's some screenshots:















Oh, and the title is because I made a Fun with Kinsha topic before, and it was also at the Ruins!
