updated human appearance



Appearance




Inforest, Riku sports the real deer mask, default antlers with candles, and the frosted pelt - though during special occasions or when he feels particularly threatened, he can be seen with the skull mask instead. However, in artwork and such, he should be portrayed with an actual deer face. Riku is rather tall and well muscled, despite his somewhat slender build, and can run farther distances than the average stag. Candles adorn his antlers, almost always lit, made to represent a change of his alliance, and he has a strange, black, symbol on the upper side of his left hind leg. He has long fur, his pelt a bit of a dark shade of grey, along with his legs and tail while his underbelly is a creamy white. He has pale, blueish green eyes, and long, silver hair that falls down to just above his shoulders. During Halloween, he can be seen wearing a black blindfold, though it is usually tied around one of the tines of his antlers.




Personality




Riku is cool, calm and collected - though it doesn't take an awful lot to get on his nerves. Oddly possessive of the few close friends he has, he shows a great amount of loyalty, and will go to the extremes to protect them. As serious as he may be, he does have a good sense of humor and can be a bit fatuous when the mood strikes. Betray him and you lose his trust, as he is not one to forgive easily; admittedly, it is harder to gain his trust in the first place, and even more difficult for him to open up. He can be quite territorial, especially over this tree near the pond. Even since arriving in the forest, Riku has become extremely curious about its origins and tends to wander about, exploring. Still wary of the forests occupants, he usually won't be the first to approach any deer unless necessary and keeps mostly to himself. This doesn't mean he himself is unapproachable, though, as he is accepting of almost any company.

Mmm, wish I would've been more active when this whole thing started up. ,___, Would've been more convenient for everyone.

I never thought this biography would live long enough for a page two.
Oh, happy days! 8D

Riku will forever be my favorite character and Sgro's homeboy.

I'm jealous of all these

I'm jealous of all these spiffy biographies popping up. I'm especially fond of Riku's&Sora's.
Wish I could put one of for Aqua, but I don't play her/go on here that often and I know no one would track it ;A;

I LIKE THIS A LOT THOUGH. :DD
Music choices are nicee.

We like Riku.

We like Riku. Smiling

Skitts- Riku is my only

Skitts-
Riku is my only active deer right now. It's..hard to play other deer because everyone just seems so close-knit in their own little groups and I don't want to be a bother. But if you ever boot Nami in just know that she's always welcome to come join them! ♥
I know. I was just skimming over R's biography and noticed I created it one year ago to this day. I've had him this long and only now have I actually begun playing him. XD; MY GOSH, I FAIL SO MUCH. ;___; MY POOR, NEGLECTED DEERIE. -sobs-

Jukebox-
ohhey good looking. ;D
Always and forever, bby.

Casafras-
Why thank you! ♥
B'aaw, we'd totally make her involved D: You don't have to, but it'd be really interesting to see what it looked like. Ohlawl, can you imagine them all meeting in forest?
A: OHHEYTHERESORA, you still like Riku~?
S: ASDF OF COURSE I still like Riku! He's my best friend! <3
R: ._.
A: -HOOFS-

IT LIKES YOU A LOT TOO.
And again, thank you. You're too kind. ;u;

Snoozer-
Annnnd you must be that pretty little doe we played with.
We like her too. (:

Yeah, I know the feeling.

Yeah, I know the feeling. I've been playing one of three other deer recently; one because his mate's really active, the other when he won't leave me alone, and then my OOC deer. xD Speaking of which, if you see this picto, feel free to come say hi~ For that matter, you can approach any of mine. :3

...I just need to learn Riku's picto. |D;

Signature by Roo ♥

I only just recently got back

I only just recently got back into playing Riku because I noticed that there was still a Sora and Xigbar around, and, eh, that's good enough for me :3 I don't really need a big group; just a few people are fine~ And I'll keep a lookout for it. Thank you! ♥

I like Riku's picto because it's an old gen 1, so it's simple and easy to remember. Same goes for Xigbar's and Roxas', too. Oddly enough, Marluxia has a really nice pictogram as well, being gen 2 and all. Pfft anyways, I find it refreshing to play a character thats not all your own. They have their own set personality and characteristics and it's easy for me to just slip IC. With my other deer, I'm always changing them up because I feel like I'm doing something wrong or I need to act a certain way in order to, dare I say, "fit in"? /SHOTTOOBLIVION
I've been here a lot longer than my account lets on. The forest has changed so much, and there's so many new people I can't keep up @___@ I do miss our KH-group; that was actually really fun. And our fabulous leader Zebbie! It was really awesome that she started this all up, and I do miss her ♥ Hopefully, she's doing alright.

VFSDNG I talk a lot and use emotes excessively.
It's nice to hear that we may see her though! Nami's so sweet, and she's also one of my favorite female roles in the game. 8D

I've probably missed Riku,

I've probably missed Riku, Sora, and Xigbar in forest so many times... I never managed to learn any of their pictos early on, hopefully now I finally can. -_-; I barely remember Saix's. Gen 1s are easier to remember, unless your memory just all around sucks like mine. xD I almost wish I could change Nami's picto, I have a hard time remembering it and I own it. Made it before I realized you could look at different pictos to find one you wanted. xD;;

I like that about fandeer too. They're easier in a lot ways to keep IC for me. The ones I'm playing mostly at the moment have ingrained themselves into my head so far that I can have conversations with them. xDD

Yeah... I miss Zebbie too. As far as I know, she's just really busy irl. Hopefully she can come back. She did have Axel in once a while back, but only for a short time. The forest just hates her, I think, which sucks. ;-;

...oh wow I talked a lot too. I don't usually, this is a nice change. Whee, emotes~~

Edit: Because I can't leave Riku out of the fun...

Signature by Roo ♥

I don't see much of Xigbar

I don't see much of Xigbar around anymore, mainly because Pluxy doesn't really use the forest often. As for Sci, we have the sane timezones so it's easy for us to meet up and whatnot. Plus, nobody else really goes on with KH character so yeah ;___; Seriously, the last time I saw anybody else was probably last August D: With Nami', do you want to change it to another gen 2 picto or do you just want a more simple first gen?

Ohlawd, is it weird to say that I'm basically the same way? 8D

I think a lot of us just got wrapped up in things irl and don't have time for the forest anymore - or, in Starks case, just grew tired of it. As much as I'd like to leave the place, I never can. I'm totally just stuck here forever. YOU ALL HAVE TO DEAL WITH ME FOR THE REST OF YOUR FOREST CAREER. ;D
It'd be awesome if Zebbie made a comeback :3 Things were a lot more interesting with her around.

EMOTES AHOY~~~
Oh Riku, you party pooper ♥ Can't you just show us those pearly whites just once?
Skitties's picture

Last time I saw most of the

Last time I saw most of the KH deer was October. xD Since then we've lost most of the Organization... think it's just Saix, Axel, Roxas, Xigbar, and Xaldin left.

Ah, yeah, same timezones make sense. What timezone are you? *US Eastern State Time* Hmm... I feel like if I somehow managed to get a first gen, I'd want to use it for someone I play more. |D; I have a few spare gen 2's I could switch hers to that I think are easier to remember.

Nope, not at all~ 8D

I'm the exact same way. 8| TEF is stuck with me. Longest I've managed to stay away from the site was a month, but I was still in forest a lot, if not daily. I do hope Zebbie can come back more. She comes to the dorkage chat every so often still. 8D But yeah, things were way more interesting with her around. I miss her. ;A;

Didn't Quad give up Xaldin,

Didn't Quad give up Xaldin, or is he just inactive? I swear I saw him post something along those lines in the directory. Also, I'm pretty sure Scythe still has Marly but just doesn't play him. Bah, I haven't been keeping up with it, so I have no clue D|
Our poor, little Orgy, dwindled down to nothing.

We're Pacific. :3 No worries, I'd be the same way. Like how my other deer shares the same pictogram as Riku, but it's confusing to the people associated with both deer because they can never tell who is who. I was originally going to give Riku a different pictogram when I first took him up as a character, but then he became my most active deer and it just seemed to fit him so well...and I can't seem to find a nice gen 2 one for 'Sura...;u; Decisions, decisions~

TEF will forever be bookmarked on my computer. I've just been here too long to leave now, and their are so many fond memories of this place. 8D I managed a few months of not being here, but the minute I came back I was instantly sucked back in. This place is impossible to quit. D; And hopefully she'll find the time to come on here. I know she's on much later in the evening, but not for long.
She was the life of the party. ;D

It's complicated... Quad gave

It's complicated... Quad gave him up, deleted his bio, then changed his mind, took him back, but just never put a bio back up. And now he's given away Xaldin's picto since it was gen 1, so I'm not really sure. Scythe does still have Marly, at least I'm pretty sure... No idea if she plays him or not, though that's mostly because I never learned his picto. |D;

Ah, Pacific. That's not too bad. xD I'm used to staying up late to chat with Haru, and she's Mountain time. Good to know there's a chance I can actually catch Riku and Sora in forest.

Nice gen 2's are kinda hard to find, I've noticed. I managed to find some nice enough ones. (Like the one for this account, which I love. x3) I just have three that I don't like anymore because they're so hard to remember. M, N, or Z shapes in pictos drive me nuts. -_- Pretty sure I have one of those shapes in each of the pictos I don't like now. xD

Ahh, I get it now. At least those two characters are still around; I really love how Scythe designed Marly, and Xaldin never really gets any love ♥ Marly has a really nice pictogram, especially for a gen 2. I'm not sure how it shows up inforest, but it was a really nice find! Wish there were more like it~

Not at all! In fact, I think I spy little Nami right now! 8D

The problem is, they're all the same. :/ Nothing ever feels original anymore; I know it must've been hard for M&A to create a whole 'nother batch, but still...they just seem so messy and blaah. When they were first released and I went to register, my pictogram for this account showed up really nice, so I nabbed it. However, when I went to go look at it, it had the curvy little line that didn't show up before, so I wasn't very happy about that. It's still quite nice, though.

[e] - Eeek, sorry! My forest was acting up, so I went to go restart it. D: We'll be back shortly!

Even with the curvy line, it's still a cool picto. I love the ones with circles. xD

Take your time~ She's in shock, I think? Riku's the first KH deer she's seen since she officially got back. And I think she forgot that she once had heard he was even there. If that makes sense.

I'm in now, just waiting for the pictos to spread. -kicks computer-
Nami is the only other KH deer that Riku has seen recently, too (with the exception of Sora) so he's still trying to remember who's here and who's not. But I get it.

YES, we need a Roxas here to spice things up! 8D
And a Xigbar.
