I am a newbie. I think I have the hang of almost everything now. A few questions.
What are families?
Do people ever gather in roleplay herds?
Anything else you guys can tell me?
Also, I have been running into a lot of small herds, mostly fawns, with a grown deer that seems to lead them. I usually ask to join them, and is accepted. Are these the families I asked about earlier?
Welcome to the
Families is a rather loose term used here. Some characters have friends they consider family. Many characters have adoptive siblings. Some have real blood siblings, mates and children. Outside of character I personally like to believe that were all one big family here! But I'm a player and characters feel differently than I do.
People definitely roleplay here, its very common. Sometimes their characters, or deer, meet in forest then they role play through a chat site like skype. Some just meet in forest, and some just roleplay on skype, or here on the tef community.
The herds you're meeting in game are mostly friends. Sometimes they're the families you discussed, other times they're just friends sharing some time together. If you're curious who you're hanging out with, you can click on this map while in game! If you find your pictogram, or the little white design in a black box next to your name here, then you can click on the other pictograms around you, and it will tell you who they are!
Um..there's a few blogs I would direct you to in learning how to create a character and play the game as more than just yourself. But I don't remember the names nor the links, sorry. Somebody will probably post them soon, though! I hope this helped.
