The Endless Herd


For anyone interested in becoming a member:
I will be posting a blog sometime this week.
Though we are currently inactive, feel free to let me know and you will be added to the list.



The Endless Herd
A community event for all




Themes!

Current Sets:


We will feature different "themes", or sets, for different occasions. New rules may or may not apply, e.g., real deer behavior.

Info!


Herd Meeting Dates:

I will announce when The Herd is active (generally between 1:00 - 6:00 PM EST). Meetings will take place only during the weekends, and there is no end time. Feel free to leave whenever.

Time Zone Converter

If you don't know what zone you're in, Google it and then find your time. When you click "Show Timetable", a list will appear and you'll be able to scroll down and search for the times.


Basic Rules:

  • There are no characters in the herd. Therefore:
1) Pictograms are obsolete; you will not be distinguished as the character you play whilst with the herd.
2) There is no favoritism or mates. Remember, when you play, it's all OOC.

  • While you are with the herd you must dress accordingly
  • Herd appearance will be updated and displayed at the top of the page.
  • You are free to leave the herd at any time. All deer who are dressed differently to the herd are assumed to be "in-character".

To leave The Herd permanently, let me know and you will be removed.

Leadership!

Current Leader: None

The Herd is lead by one player, the "Leader".

Role: The Leaders roll is to lead the herd's activities around the forest; wherever the Leader goes, the herd must follow. This will also reduce the confusion and chaos in-game.

Selection: Every member of the herd will get the chance to perform this role via a rotation of members, and the Leader will choose the next person to take their place after every meeting or so.

Two Pictograms will be supplied and allow players to distinguish between the leader and the rest of the herd. New themes will be equipped prior to herd meetings. Those who do not have the newest version of the game will have to acquire them on their own.

If anyone has a problem, question, or suggestion about the rules, please mention it in a comment below.

Don't give up now, summer is

Don't give up now, summer is starting for many of us and I'm sure more will be attending. I personally keep forgetting because.. I'm very forgetful. It would help alot if you'd update it whenever Herd is starting up again, then I'd remember and join in.;; I can't be the only one that innocently can't remember.

Just a suggestion. ;^;

May i join? x

You never answer my question

You never answer my question about switching between being a doe and juvienile stag. I noticed in all the screenshots there weren't any juveniles, and I'd love to play that role on the days when no one else is playing it if you'd like that to be the exception rule or something.

If you haven't decided an answer thats fine too. <3

....I would actually be very

....I would actually be very tempted to try this some time, if you´d happen to gather at the time that I can join... Are there any mini-deer on the herd, or do you even accept one?

Tally: Oh. Sorry. o-o I don't

Tally:
Oh. Sorry. o-o
I don't see why not. Just, if you decide to play a juvenile stag, try to play it for the rest of the time instead of switching genders throughout the meeting.


Spyrre: I... don't think I want that many mini-deer. Maybe one or two, but no more than that.
If you want to be a mini, that's fine because you were the first that asked to be one. I think.

Lani: There can never be too many females. <3

I added the new members. <3

Just pointing out you might want to add Saosin to the list so that others know who the leader is. c:
Spyrre's picture

All right, thanks. =) It´s

All right, thanks. =) It´s not really a issue though, I could play a big deer too if it bothers someone, I just thought it could be fun to play as juvenile female/male, and be mini, as minis can now have pelts also. Maybe a few minis in the herd would make a nice difference in animals in different age and position? =)

Thanks Custard. I'm so

Thanks Custard. I'm so scatter-brained.

Spyrre:
I kind of want you to be a normal-sized deer, though...
I was saving the mini spell for a surprise so there would be a herd of mini deer running around. :/

Actually, Tally:
I think I'm going to get rid of the beluga antlers and just keep the default, great white, and noh antlers.
I hope this isn't a problem.
You can still be a juvenile stag, I just want to get rid of them.

I was also wondering if Noe

I was also wondering if Noe could switch between male and female on certain days? Obviously if she starts as female, she'll remain female throughout the meeting and vice versa. But I'd get a kick out of haranguing the other males every now and then. |D

Hraeth: I have no problem if

Hraeth: I have no problem if you want to play a male on certain meets and female on others. (:
Go for it.

Awesome. \o/ Thanks.

Realistic actions for the

Realistic actions for the herd:
Flower pickup + Sad= Grazing (Stags only)
Bow + Nod or Shake= Grazing or eating blueberries etc.
Lower antlers (if you have antlers) + shake or nod on a tree= Rubbing/scent marking a tree
Sad= Submission
Taunt + Rear= Dominance/Warning
Lower antlers= Attacking (Males only)
Rub on a tree= Scent marking

These are just a couple actions I thought of that could be useful for the herd. (:
