How do you....

relate to your deer ? Personallity and talking wise, maybe some appearance traits? Meaning of your name? (things like that.) ^^ Id like to learn more about other people and how they relate to their characters , and i taught this would be a good way.

All of my characters tend to

All of my characters tend to have a trait of myself in them; Queze (the green fellow in my signature) has my at times stern demeanor, where as I have a more 'evil' character named Sinker who I relate to through my darker sense of humor. I find characters are more likely to stick around if I can relate to them, and they become truly special when it's almost like they're a little piece of myself.

What about you? Do you have a character you relate to Term? Smiling

No, I dont. =) But I was

No, I dont. =) But I was thinking about making one really soon for tef, and actually playing in tef since i dont go in forest too much. I figured by asking this it would be easier to find out more about how i could develop my own character and Ive even decided on a set that kind of relates to me.
I might post something about it today like a rought draft of a biography and put different stuff in there and then re-arrange it or erase it and make a new one untill i finally like it. I heard its hard to make a biography , since you keep on changing your mind about the way it looks. Im always worried that its eitehr too long or too short, is why the reason i nevre posted it. Alltough , I dont have a name for him yet. Id like to think up of one today, or maybe look some up and see which fits him best.

Don't get too worried about

Don't get too worried about making a bio that's set in stone. It doesn't have to be something overly fancy if you don't feel like making it fancy, and really, it can change whenever the character does. The character should come first, worry about making it one that's important and cool to you, then deal with sharing it with all of us here. I look forward to seeing what you come up with! ^_^

You're right, this is a good

You're right, this is a good way to get to know people ^^ aren't you a smart cookie? XD

Hrmm...it's hard to say how one relates to their deer. Some treat their deer like an extension of themselves, and guess that's how it is with my deer, Atiq. I feel what he feels and vice versa, though I do not treat him like a personification of myself. Moreso like one of my children or a close friend XD I know him in and out but he still surprises me sometimes. Most people find out about each other's deer by way of their biographies (clicking Atiq's name in the earlier sentence will take you to his) yet others like to dig deeper and sometimes we set up blogs to ask each other's deer questions.

My stag Atiq is basically: Persian, shy, friendly, and very scruffy and lean in appearance. I gave him the pet name of Fluffers XD His name is Arabic for "Ancient".

My name is actually Cato (kay-to...not my real name btw but an alias) phantomhelsing is the name I stupidly registered with so I end up getting mixed up a lot XD. It's story is ENTIRELY different. Cato is a nickname I earned when I was 12 or 13, it is Latin and comes from Cato the Elder (or Cato the younger if you read Shakespeare). i'm very much an academic and into literature and archaic type things. As well as the macabre XD And I use big words and have horrible typing skills.


What about you? You want to learn about us, we'd like to know about you, you seem quite friendly C:

Thank you for the support and

Thank you for the support and i might even say you made me feel more confident. Ill try and focus on the character more then on how the biography looks, and then if i like how he turnes out and continues on his own way of changing trough time periods ill start working on his biography.




(gonna go eat, thank you so much for all the information!^^ )

edit: phantom xD i try to

phantom

xD i try to act smart, even tough i have my moments sometimes....

moving on~. anyways : yes i am outgoing when i warm up to people and if I know a person very well, I can relate to their friends easily. This isnt really the case so I try to act a myself on here: its why I joined this community in the first place. I wanted to open up to people and act more open to everyone. I guess its working. Im glad to hear someone likes my personallity if that is the way I could put it.


Your stag, Atiq is very interesting to me and I enjoyed reading the basic parts of it (since I didnt have time to, but i will go back and re - read the whole thing.) Also, Cato to me is a really cool name. I havent heard about any Cato's in a long time. My name isnt that special , just Maxim. My full name is Maximilian (Mah-eih-mill-e-an), but I prefer people call me Maxim since its shorter, and probably easier to remember.


I hope im not spamming all these nice arts and blogs with my stupid questions and everything Dl

Quad is essentially the

Quad is essentially the person I wish I was. He is kind, beautiful, silly, and lovable. He reflects a lot of my personality, and is my best friend and idol.

Zephyr represents my shy, insecure side, but also my strive to better myself and be more openminded.

Pent...well...I guess he represents my love of nature...and my overall weird side Eye

Trunks I can relate to because he is selfless and willing to help anyone out who needs it.

Blixt represents not only suave personality, but he has a strong belief in justice and fairness. I'm a strong believer in what's right too.

Caw represents my love of travel and I suppose my laziness Smiling

Hope that's what you're looking for.

Quad Yeah, thank you a lot,

Quad

I say try to see your deer as

I say try to see your deer as an extension of your soul - like someone who is always there for you and would gladly listen to you whenever you need someone to talk to. I see Quad like that, and I love spending time with him through dreams and such.

Try imagining yourself walking down a trail in a forest with your deer, and what they would be like when they accompany you. That really helps you decide what they are like. Eye
