Physically healthy, fantastic. Emotionally content.



Although it is unlikely Tav will have any children from this rut, if that's something you're interested in, contact me (leave a comment, skype, email, etc)!

For the most part, I'll be using the rut event to help Tav expand his very tiny circle of friends.


Vee: I'M DYING, TAV
Vee: I'M A DYING OLD MAN AND YOU BEAT ME UP
Owl: TAKE SOME MEDICINE YOU'LL BE FINE
Vee: THERE IS NO MEDICINE FOR WHAT I HAVE
Owl: AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Owl: I BEAT UP AN OLD DYING MAN


































Name
Tav, Tavi, and Tavitar are the names he will answer to with the latter being his Gods-given name, and the former being how he will most often introduce himself. He can be identified by his unique scent or, in some cases, his pictogram can be used to identify!

Gender
Buck - Male
No defined sexuality/fluid!

Species
An equal balance of TEF deer and white-tailed deer, albeit he leans more toward having feral white-tail traits. On rare occasions, through use of magic, he may change his face into that of a human face similar to what can be seen in all TEF deer. This is most often done in private or in the company of someone he trusts very dearly. It is a preference to keep the deer face, as he associates with it best. In either form his face takes, his antlers will remain; never to shed. For a resident of TEF, he isn't very large. Sizing in around 13 on the chart by apel! As a feral white-tail, he is mostly a herbivore; however he has been known to opportunistically feed on small nesting birds and mice.

Light Real Deer Pelt • Default Antlers • Real Deer Mask

Age
January 17th, 2012; four years old.
He was created in January 2013, but I've marked his date of birth as earlier. The magic of the forest and later explorations of another world accelerated his growth. Now he ages in real time.

Rut:

+ Sorrel , Anja , Alain , Ismay

Red Virgil, Bravehart, Vigil. One of his closest friends and a source of inspiration. Sometimes considered a leader and other times an equal; an ever-changing shift depending on where the day takes them. Friendly competition and the biggest influence in Tav's life. Takes great comfort in Red's presence and will actively seek him out when in the forest.

Inferno Saosin, Sao, Soldier, Inferno, Sunburnt. Seen as the other half to The Red, but doesn't necessarily throw him in the same pile. Initially intimidated by the beast and uncertain of his nature, but the progression of time proved that only a friend and friendly competitor to be found. At peace in his presence, even quietly in awe.

Peaches Rhona. Pleasant company. Feels a sense of guardianship over her at times.

Snowflake ✝ Sevigne. Pleasant company. Feels a sense of guardianship over her at times. Unaware of her death.

Sky Gwlithlys. Pleasant company. Feels a sense of guardianship over her at times.

Snowstripe Åsleif. Occasionally watched over, usually from a distance.

Tigress Shahla. First interaction. Uncertainty. Faint. Remembered kindness. Would not object to her presence. She was the first to be by his side when he was a fawn.

Obsidian Umay. Large-cat. Dangerous. Avoid. First encounter was nerve-wracking.

Sunlion Kuwaka. Met first when he was a cub and watched as The Red attempted to snuff out the young lion's life in vain. Hadn't seen for a while and slowly began to forget of until, much to his surprise and displeasure, the cub returned a lion to; as Tav perceived it, harass he and Red. A subject of avoidance.


_______________________ • _______________________


• Will never take on a mate, but he may have fawns. The mothers and fawns will be watched over from afar.
• Ruts during late October into early November. This is not to be associated with the community hosted rut activity.
• Quick to judge predatory-looking character. Exceptionally prone to fleeing from larger ones, while likely to attack smaller ones (such as child pred-lookin' characters, sorry!).
• A lot of self-worth. Not going to die for anyone.
• Stomps his hooves if uneasy or suspects danger nearby. When he flees, his tail sticks up in the air, a signal for other prey animals that a predator lurks.
• Can jump and clear around seven feet.
• Crafted by the magic of the forest, therefor that magic is part of him.


There was no birth and there are no parents. The forest itself serves as a single, united parental figure for him. The trees, grass, and the pond.

Social interaction was easier to come by when he was younger. For those few months as a fawn he grew used to the company and interaction of others. As he quickly grew into a yearling buck, that interaction faded and he returned to feral roots. Deep within him resides that calling for domesticated social interaction, but the wild has mostly consumed him. Without active verbal communication, he will remain especially rooted in his feral mannerisms. With consistent verbal interaction, there is a good chance he will revert to more 'domesticated' behavior, and his morals and ethics will change.

Body language is a strong part of how he gets by, not being one for words. He speaks very little and so when he does, his tone is rough and his sentences choppy. There are many words he does not understand and he'll become easily frustrated with vocabulary that doesn't - to him - make any sense. When spoken to he may very well not reply with words, but with actions to show his interest, disinterest, appreciation, dislike, and so on. It is important to note that he does make different calls.

Magic is an integrated part of his existence, having been born of the forest, and all magic comes naturally to him. There was never a need to learn a new spell or enchantment. These are all carved into the mind; both dark and light magic. How he uses his magic will undoubtedly reflect on him. Additionally, each form of magic - light or dark - can be used for good or evil. So light can be used for evil deeds while dark can be used for good, however dark magic often carries heavier consequences.

Most of the magic that Tavitar has used so far in his life has been for optical illusions or set-casting. Playful and harmless spells. He avoids casting the devout, never certain if it could harm others.

My Junalia was the mini fawn

My Junalia was the mini fawn he met! She was just beaten up a bit so she wasn't in a playful mood. I'll try to remember this picto for future reference. I have a hard time when it comes to other fawns for some reason.

You B'D

Hallo ? Also if the deer

Hallo ♥
Also if the deer aren't showing up, look in the corner at the dot. If it's green go to Esc - Display - Show all other players, and slide the slider all they way up. If it's orange or red you're not connected properly. Opening 2 windows at one time usually help for me.

Hey! Yeah - I checked that.

Hey! Laughing out loud

Yeah - I checked that. It was set to show all other players. Ah well. I'll try to fix it with more windows, again. x) Thanks!!
