1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?

I love many characters, actually. Even if the players and I don't get along. With that said, I find myself following many of Silverfang's characters. I'm a sucker for any character with a good story line, not to mention amazing designs. But Silv's characters go above and beyond. Their personalities are so detailed and specific, very deeply thought about.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?

Sighthoundlady, even though she is no longer here. Some of her stuff may have been traced, but that didn't matter to me. She brought them to life with her coloring technique and shading, made them her own. That is what got me the most.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?

One I will not mention because I know what they would say. But Orin (Yara, as she is known as now) dealt with a lot of my BS too. Senexys, Fishbiscuit, and a few others have played a huge part in helping me overcome my anxiety over returning and giving me a place here in the Forest for my characters to belong.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?

Nothing, really. I say anything I feel I need to say in my personal blog, which 9 times out of 10 is due to a rant of some leftover mixed feelings I'm still trying to work through. But if I have a question, I outright ask.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?

Shardul and Fletchers' plots I've always followed. Right now currently excited that Fletcher is FINALLY settled down with bab/s on the way! I had a couple characters interact with him when I was new here and he was a small-antlered teenager!

6. What's your favorite set in the game?

I tend to favor the secretary pelt, though those 3 new pelts are nice too. Orca mask I favor as well, not even sure why. I found most of my characters having it, but I plan to break it. For antlers, I don't really favor one over the others, though there are a few (carnival antlers, horn antlers, couple others) I'm rather not fond of at all.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?

Well, there's very few that I'm currently roleplaying with, and it's only light roleplay. I would love to get back into long-term detailed multi-world roleplaying like I once did. I thrive when I do that. I just need to find the right partner.

(If anyone is interested, Discord me. I have examples of my RP work)

8. Which character has your favorite design?

Too many pretty new babs to choose from!! So many are so nice!! Of my own I miss Calida's old and more simple design, and Lumilla's design. Jasta, Raisa, and Kesh (IF I un-retire her) all need makeovers.

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!

So many are new to me, lol! But shoutout to all of you. It's not always cupcakes and rainbows, but if you stick to it, you'll do just fine. If it wasn't for all the drama I went through here, I actually wouldn't have met my husband!

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!

Lemon, you are growing on me a bit. Your characters are interesting and I'm intrigued about character Lemon's past and her current association with Walter. I'm watching too, and glad to be working with you to bring Crescent's siblings to life. ^_^

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
I don't think I want to say, mostly because I feel bad about naming favourites and leaving people out. They'd know who they are though.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
Ancient players who are mostly gone; 21 used to do these insane little pixelly painting things on iScribble, and it made me want to get better at shading colouring.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
VALA, their niceness hasn't wavered at all in all their years here.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
There's a lot of things, I still wonder if people still hold grudges after that past drama.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
I don't think I have any, I'm not that involved with peoples characters 8( I wish I was, but my timezone says no

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Secretary Bird set, though I love certain bits and pieces from other sets. the red mardi gras pelt pls

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
Helel/Malakh/Jon/Ranee mostly cos they're the recieving end of all my character babbles, and we put up with eachothers character's shenanigans. I'm also going to put Echosong up here too cos they're the only other person who's rped with me alskndg

8. Which character has your favorite design?
Out of mine? lgknflskdfn I'm not sure, Baell was fun to redesign because I was able to mess around with pelt design. Jehoel was kinda fun too.

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
yells

@Valeska, I'm still super thankful that you took interest in my adoptables, I kinda feel like mine get lost in the giant sea of awesome css and other great designs alskdng.

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
I find myself falling for all the durrs here, even if I am not in the best terms with their players. Everyone creates such neat characters and storylines and ahhh.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
For this I have to name Kallonate. I have watched him change his style and develope so rapidly that it still amazes me. He is so detailed with every little thing and puts so much energy in every single piece he makes.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
Schutzgeist. I cannot think of a time when she had treated someone poorly or refused to help someone.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
I love you guys, even when I am being a total ass. There, I said it. Against everything in a Finnish nature I said I love you.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
The one where Herla prepared giving birth, where others brought stones and stuff to support her. It brought everyone together and was beautifully executed.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Owl.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
Schutzgeist. She just gets me and puts up with my stupidest ideas. Ilu.

8. Which character has your favorite design?
Sloane. Izumi. Ismay. Liathe. Just to throw a few names rofl. They are all so gorgeous.

@Draak, I remember you from the time I first joined the community and I looked up to you for your positivity and creativity. Here you still are after 8½ years cheering ppl up with your shenanigans. Thank you for that, you are truly amazing person. ♥

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
Balthanos and Cymbeline? The owlcats with grabby hands. They were just so different and interesting - well thought out by their respective players. Just about any of Hraeth’s or Qanat’s characters. Each are well worked, a pleasure to see in game and i adore reading the updates or interacting when i can.
Lastly would be Walter. Being the first character i met in this game i always enjoy the opportunity to interact with him.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
Pandoras. Like how do you even?! Though Sleepything and Silv are really inspiring to me as well. All three are really creative with differing styles that are just really pleasant to look at.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
Aivilo and Unplugged. I mean theres dozens of players i could mention but these two always stick out the most. From helping with CSS to managing the information blogs and generally just being very kind to everyone they meet.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
Well i guess i still dont have the courage but i suppose ill say: I adore your characters too, from reading updates and chuckling at the funny things going on or sympathizing and wishing one of mine could help when things aren't going well for them. They're always well written and i like the thought put into them. Seeing them in game is a true pleasure even if it might break my heart a lil bit. You know who you are.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
Ive seen a few plots and all of them i really enjoyed i cant pick sob. All you gotta say is ‘plot’ and i get excited okay.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Koi. I love that face so much gosh and the pelt mmmm!!!

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
I dont really have a partner anymore sob but!!! Im blessed to have Tisority’s company. Even if i probably annoy him sometimes by bouncing all my ideas off on him when hes just trying to play guild wars tysvm for putting up with me man


8. Which character has your favorite design?
Hnnnnggg snap there's really too many to choose from. There's a lot of characters and designs i really like - very very few characters on this site that i don't like the design of. Hard pressed to even think of one i don't like to be honest.


9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
Moonofnawfar! Love your character and seeing you around in game.

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!

Sleepy, Quam, Munkel, Eyestrain.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
Echoing Vala, though honestly everyone has been quite kind to me here. Even when I'm a tw*t. Foodog and Kimi, too, though, have almost always been there for me.

___

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
Some of them are : Iaurdagnire, Ephiré, Leto, Cutlass, Auxentius, Rebellem and Balthanos. Favorites for many reasons, alchemy is working. There are more.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
Tuhka, Narina, Apeldille, Munkel, 9, Eyestrain and Jala. I missed Spyrre too.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
Hard question because almost the whole community is kind (perfection does not exist) but I've always associated these guys with the "helpful" and "kind" adjectives : Pegasicorn, Vala, Kaoori and Aivilo.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
I'm still surprised to see some players happy to see me and my oldest characters, I honestly don't see why you're coming back at us.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
Absolutely no idea. I remember there were very good ones, intense and well-made but I'm not involved with other players stories sooooo, no one in particular.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Secretary bird.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
I'm too uncomfortable with my English, I can't start RP but I make efforts when someone wants to start one with me. I had good times with Estme and Forgetmenot ♥

8. Which character has your favorite design?
Scythe's Wesker : a classy and simple design, efficiently badass. Also, he is an elk, just an elk, you know, not a vampire-wolf-dragon-demon-xxxhybrid "deer".

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
*mentally checks her list of "new" players, sees on TEFc they're here for at least 5 years, runs far away*

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!
Clare, you rock! B[

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
I love all of them, really, I don't any preferences. Though, I have to admit, I always loved Mandel the most. I just always loved the character himself, his personality, his design... Also Kamaya was close to him so I guess this affected me too.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
All! Every. Single. Artist. Silverfang, Vessan (their ink doodles are a pleasure to look at), Tuo, Mary13 (always found her style cute) to mention a few.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
I have no idea. Everybody is helpful and kind in this community. But the first one to come in mind is Vala. I don't really think I should justify why, just look at all of her posts and comments. Every single one inspires love and kindness.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
*Takes deep breath* Okay, here we go...
Being a shy girl lacking of confidence, I am always scared to ask or say certain things in fear of misinterpretation. I don't wanna be selfish, so I never dare.
But I've learnt recently that being self-centered and lacking of confidence look similiar in appearance but are actually different. In both cases, you feel the need for someone to tell you that you are the best or that you are good at something, but it's not for the same reason. A self-centered person needs to hear this for their own ego, they love being flattered. But a person that lacks confidence needs to hear it to feel like they have their place in the world, that they can do something interesting and different, something that can make people happy and so on, that they are unique in some ways...

Learning this made me realize how much I actually need to express myself about my own lack of confidence, the feeling of being...ordinary.
But you guys have always been so nice with me, every single kind comment makes my day. Maybe your actions towards me may seem insignificant to you, but to me it's not. Even if it's adding me on Discord without necessarely talking to me makes me feel like I am interesting enough to be part of your friend list (I don't know why but that sounded better in head). A tiny heart when replying to me, even a simple "hello, how are you?"... You get the idea. It just makes me feel special and unique...or like I said, interesting enough.

Still learning how to be set apart from others, I try to find my own signature style, or to find something to do that nobody did before. It's not always easy, but I know that as long as I have support from others, I'll be fine. So thanks to all of the people who have interacted with me, I appreciate all the kind words and enjoyed all the good moments and dialogues we had. Thank you. ♥

So......how am I doing so far?

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
None, really, they are all exciting and great.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Monarch Butterfly.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
Although I always liked roleplaying with Chizzu, it would be ShrinkingRose and Mozdog (yes, I have two partners if I may say). I consider them as my friends. Shrinky seems to really be into her characters, and even if she intimidates me (this and my shyness causing me to not always talk to her when I can and want, never knew why though), it is always a joy to interact and (role)play with her.
As for Mozdog, he's very important to me, he's my bae? best buddy and well...I just don't know...I guess we roleplay a lot together?

8. Which character has your favorite design?
All. They all have in a way. Some are simple, others have incredible complex beauty. I was never able to pick one as my favourite, even simple designs are delightful.

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
I know none, but I know there are some in the community currently....forgive me...

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!
Oh hello Vessan! Make more ink doodles please. Not sure what to say to you (please forgive me) but I always loved your art (even if I don't always get to see it, oddly) and I hope to meet you in-game, even if just once.
By the way, thank you again for the chubbypuppyspiddy, always helps me with my arachnophobic paranoia. ♥

Alright, time for me to do this. B}

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
I'm gonna try not to just list every character I've interacted with in the last few months, because god there are so many I love lol!

Rose. I'm a sucker for a character with issues, and Rose has plenty of them. I adore everything about him, the way he's played, the problems he faces, the terrible things he does. I've been stalking him for a while, now. Also that tail.

Foxtrot. See above. I've only recently been introduced to, but I absolutely adore him. He's a product of unfortunate circumstances, shaped into something terrible and very Lord-of-the-Flies-esque. And yet there's still a childish innocence to him to set off the morbid bits.

NISHI. What can I even say about Nishi? I adore everything about the way he's played. So much care is taken to portray him as accurately as possible in-forest and out. I love the attention to detail that's given to his issues. And aside from that, he's absolutely adorable and pouty, and he steals my heart every day.

Walter. Too much for me to say in one paragraph, honestly. I've followed Walter's story for a long time. I've paid more attention to Walter's character development than to any other character on TEF, I'm pretty sure. He's a complex guy, sheltering a good heart beneath a lot of ugly. I obviously adore Lemon and Walter's flawed relationship, in all the forms it's taken over the years. Even when I'm away from TEF, I find myself checking up on Walter and all the terrible things he's doing. Plus he's voiced by Jeremy Irons, and come on.

Atiq. Still can't believe how long it took our characters to find one another. Lemon and Atiq are building such an incredible bond, and I'm so drawn in by Atiq's tragic past and his fierce determination to stay positive throughout it all. He has been through some bad times, but he's come out kind, caring, and open toward all.

Rhea. There is so much detail to Rhea's story. She's a complex lady with a lot of heart, and I will always admire her from afar. I like her attitude, I feel like we could be friends in real life.

Salem. Oh dear god, Salem. My secret obsession. Salem is perfectly weird, and I can't get over them. They are everything I love in a character -- terrifying, horrifying, dark, creepy. I love the slithery way they act, the half-amused way they look down on the world. Iconic perfection.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
QANAT. Holy CRAP, every solitary LINE just freaking blows me away. Every time Qanat posts art I have to stare at it for a good solid fifteen minutes. I think the bio art for Rose is my all-time favorite.

PhantomHelsing. UGH. JUST STOP. So much expression and fluidity, it drives me crazy. Everything is dynamic and awesome and I just love it. I love the use of texture, too. Gorgeous.

Unplugged. That organic, chunky style is just beautiful. The recent series of babs was one of my favorites to follow, I was absolutely stunned by the masterful use of color and the apparent ease with which everything was painted. It was fun watching the paintings come to life on stream.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
Kaoori/Kimi and Vala are my top two, without hesitation. Both have been here a long time, and they have both always been nothing but kind, inclusive, and caring. I definitely look up to them both.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
I'm amazed at how many people wonder if they're hated, it makes me a little sad. I wonder the same thing quite often. Am I annoying? Do I bother people when I reach out to them? I have a few people in particular I want to ask this to, but I know I'll never have the courage. If I'm wrong and they do like me, it's awkward and I'll feel bad for doubting them. If I'm right and they hate me, I think I'd almost rather not know. I appreciate directness and honesty, but I'm also a huge wimp, and it's p easy to make me cry.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
Pandora's plot with Jealousy was one of my favorites. Despite Lemon-deer's obnoxious feelings, I OOCly adored watching Pan and Malikorin with their budding relationship, back before things went sour. They had a lot to struggle through together, and I really thought they'd last forever.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Grey fawn pelt, can we have that for adults already please??
Also the barn owl pelt and mask are probably my favs for adults. Also love the starling/magpie/whatever-it's-called pelt.
For antlers I really like peacock feathers. c:

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
Again, gonna try not to just mention every damn person I've rped with, because there are so many and I've only had wonderful experiences so far.

Big shocker, I'm going to mention my girl Verdalas. Her style of writing just always blows me away and makes me feel terrible about myself, lmao. In a good way. I've always admired her writing skills, and she's only gotten better with time. It's always an honor to rp with her.

PhantomHelsing and I have been doing a lot of rping lately, and I love the way Atiq is handled. I love how similar Lemon and Atiq's lives have been. I always feel relaxed and happy when I'm rping with Cato.

Apparanza and I don't get to do too much rping these days, but I really enjoy her style and the flow of her words. She's a talented writer, and a lot of fun to rp with. c:

Pumpkinseed never fails to make me smile with her rps, and I adore every moment Lemon and Pagan get to spend together. They're adorable together, and they just seemed to click right from the start.

Kimi almost always makes me cry, when we rp. Our characters have a very complex relationship (mostly because Lemon's a constantly confused slob) that always touches me. I treasure all of our rps, and though I may dread some of the things we have to put our characters through, the journey getting there is always the best.

8. Which character has your favorite design?
Isetore. Just recently found this guy, I love his build. There's something so ancient and primal about his design that I love.

Andrei. The colors, the markings... it's an antlered dogger, how can you not love this character?

Foxtrot. He gets to be mentioned twice, because I guess I really like him. I love his big fluffy tail, and the combination of fox-like and cervine traits. Also love the sharp teeth in a human face, it's a good mix.

Ractera. She just gives me the chills. Look at her. Look how magnificent this beast is.

Jude. TWO FACES, I MEAN COME ON. I am so jealous of this little guy's iconic design, it's disgusting.

Ouza. Alllll the eyes. Love this little lady, she's gorgeous.

Sayuri. I had to mention this gorgeous bab, I've always adored her design.

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
MoonofNawfar and Emote, I <3 you both!

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!
*whispers* I'm obsessed with Ouza, shhh. She's perfect and I love her. Also your art is super cute! You have a really cool style that I admire. c:

Hm.

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
-- Those who just joined, are nameless and do not visit the site. Those fawns who have no idea what they're doing. And those people who interact like the forest was without a community site.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
-- Everyone, but my favorite are those who aren't afraid to upload their artwork even if they're still a beginner when it comes to art. Those are my favorites.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
-- Those who are willing to lend a hand with sets in game, willing to drop everything (in game interactions, plots, whatever) and leave just to help someone new with a set they've been waiting a month for. Those who cannot open two forests and do it themselves, are met with one who is gladly able to help them. Those are the most helpful ones in my opinion.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
-- Why are there so many cliques? Why are there so many groups? Wasn't the forest meant to be free of those ugly environments and to make everyone feel a part of everything, regardless of ooc/ic? Where has the forest gone after ten years?

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
-- Baal's plot was my favorite. Being a part of it was such an honor. I haven't seen a plot as great as that since the old forest. I would love to witness or be part of a plot, even if I was simply a background character.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
-- The ugliest combination you can manage, but I have no favorite.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
-- I do not have one, haven't had one for a very long time. I miss those days and it makes for development much more easier than struggling on your own and getting little to no interaction in forest.

8. Which character has your favorite design?
-- I will not pick favorites.

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
-- Those who don't know what they're doing, believe me, you're doing everything right. Don't be afraid to approach others and say hello, even if they're ignoring you (intentionally or not). It's the thought that always counts.

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!

pOPPY You are a super great person and I'm glad I've had the chance to talk to you and meet your neat characters. <3

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
Red/Virgil. I had the great privilege of being able to follow his development and he was definitely one of the most memorable individuals. We'll never forget him.

Saosin, Iaurdagnire, Crybaby, brd, Lem, Shahla, Lats'vel, Kio, Jude, Riptail, Ravynn, Jettem, Ryff, Eventide, Circe, Lohtu, Pica ... a lot basically

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
TamaBird, Vanilliana, Reykat, W0lfclaw, forgetmenot, J!n, Tuo

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
I think most people have already said everything that can be said about both Vala and Flyleaf. They both eminate such constant positive vibes it baffles me how they have the energy.

Honestly there's probably something great I could say about every one around here, it's hard to pick. I do want to give a special mention to Vee for the fantastic Rut organization, Aivilo for their general helpful attitude and friendliness and Postmortem who always seems to have a kind word! There are a lot of names I could mention though.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
please don't forget me

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
I honestly wish I'd keep up with more stuff but I always fondly remember Iaurdagnire's story and the events surrounding it as well as Baal's plot which was legendary. I'm unfortunately not well versed at all in the recent goings on..

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Favorite complete set would probably be the barn owl and magpie sets. Separately my vote goes for Swan Antlers, Barn Owl pelt and Secretary Mask.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
I don't really roleplay much so 3: skipping

8. Which character has your favorite design?
wow i managed to skip this one uhhhhhhhh let me get back to you on that

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
I know they're not really new at all but i'm an old fart who doesn't know half the people so POSTMORTEM has really stood out to me as an active, kind, fun and generally awesome person all around..

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!
QANAT I really used to be super intimidated by you but that's gone away. Honestly I don't know where I'd start, you're like, a staple of the rping community here. Your characters and the worlds you create are always super unique and interesting and whenever I see your posts around you always promote more interaction and give generally great encouragement for others to reach out more and feel more confident. I'm not a big roleplayer at all and I haven't been very active in the forest but it's definitely inspired me to maybe get out of my shell again.

Poppy, you're so sweet omg I love you and miss you so much

Sorry i c'ant write here right now ....i am not in a very good condition for the moment ...
But i wanted to say that i love you all .....so much !
You are the sweetest and kindest poeple ....all of you !
You will be forever in heart and i will never forget you ♥

Fushrah, I will rp with you any day. <3 If you have discord, add me! Sparrow#1217. c:

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
Lohtu - hilarious bugger who is as extroverted as they come - never really a dull moment with this child, and their 'take on the world' attitude is amazing for interactions, especially with characters who are hesitant to interact with others.

Ben - A presence that does't make you feel left out, ever. Really sweet and quirky.

Greitai - Her wry and egocentric (probably) attitude is always a blast to read about.

Monroe - Super crazy whirlwind of action. I admire the thought put into his personality and I personally like how he reflects a lot of Apparanza's hype and energy levels.

Benat - Apart from his amazing design, I enjoyed reading about how he's developed from a child and dealt with his problems.

wheezes also Jokerman, Rohit, Ronra, Chrome, Eve, COnnor (where did he get his dislike of the sun from???)...

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
I can fire off now right
munkel, eyestrain, Unplugged, Sleepything, Jin, Dotte, Tuo, Ratt, Quamar, hb-k, novaqi, Apparanza etcetc

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
I'm honestly going to echo a lot of what people have already said - but Vee, Draak, Kimi, Unplugged, vala, flyleaf for sure!

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
Am I unapproachable and awkward?

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
Ahhh, Iaudagnire's?? Probably? I caught the tailend of the finale, I think in my first year or so here, so it's really stuck with me.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
Damn... forest god mask, dark RD pelt and candle antlers.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
I... don't roleplay that often, but I'd say Apparanza, simply because of the antics and sheer outrageous shenanigans we'll get up to with our characters.

8. Which character has your favorite design?
DOn't.... do this... to me..

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
SHOUTOUT

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!
It's good to see you around, Sarkoja!! I think it speaks for itself, but your art has always been amazing - in sketches, lineart, colouring and creativity and it really reflects in the way that you've developed your characters as well! The thought you put into their designs and css and personalities is super commendable and really just something I can only hope to achieve. Keep it up!

Sorry for any typos, there is probably lots.

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
- There's so many but my memory is really wonky. But from what I remember, Verve was the one that struck me the most, she was so well fleshed out and the originality was incredible. Then there was Ephire, Farrah, Prettyface, Vasla, Illrose, Pica, Ben, Nadezdha, Starless, Rakil, Fay, Liam and more. Typing out why I love every one of these would take me the whole day so I'm just gonna say they have that thing that strikes me. And there are definitely more characters but like I said, my memory is what it is and I'm going to feel like absolute garbage when I remember the ones I forgot to list.

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
- Niriya, Unplugged, Silv, Hrae, Reykat, Jin, Pandoras, Aihnna, Quamar, ratt, Luu, Apeldille, 'Ranza, Lost, JD, Evern, Badname, Matthew, Fin, Lady, Qanat, Starling, Awentia, HB, Wake, AliceV, Cicadia and others, I can't even remember usernames hhh.

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
- Aivilo and Phantomhelsing.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
- I hope most of you don't believe hearsay about me.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
- I haven't really.. taken part into any plots nor followed them, community wise. But Hamsa & Sitra were an interesting duo and the wish they granted made some nice plots I think.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
- Ahhh definitely the swan mask. I love it to bits. Then the beluga pelt and dotd antlers. Also the koi antlers look cute.

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
- Must be Luksus. She keeps pulling me back from the land of idgaf-about-tef and inspires me by throwing ideas and characters at me.
I find it immensely difficult to start roleplays, even with a friend. I start overthingking and in the end, nothing comes out of it and my characters end up quietly sitting. Responding is easier.

8. Which character has your favorite design?
- Hhhhhhh. C'mon memory work for once. Kefi, Shanai, Miriam, Morioch, Romulus, Farrah, Prettyface, Jezabelle, 'Chrome', Ezekiel, Sky Sight, Kira, Asriel, Starless, Saosin, Ephire, Verve, Tsabhi, Fletcher, Róta, Lieva, Chrona, Mikael, Monroe, Möbius..... And others.

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
- Unfortunately I don't know any new players, but... Hello!

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!
- Tuo! I love to see you posting art, it's always really inspiring and you've improved so so much in a very short period of time! That bald cat is my absolute favorite. And I'm happy you've seemed to play the game more often recently, it's fun to see your characters roaming about even though we don't interact that much. :}

1. Who are some of your favorite characters outside your own? Why do you love them?
Romulus, Grimkell (HB's characters all of them??) Rhea, Fletcher, Tamsin, honestly I will get back to this one....

2. Whose art are you most inspired by?
Apel, Luu, Keepiru JD, Tuo, Jin, HB, Tuhka, forgetmenot, Panda, Novaqi, Qanat, Silv, Hraeth, parrotsnpineapple, ratt,everyone

3. Which player do you feel has been the most helpful or kind?
I guess most recently AWENTiA you've been so sweet and that message made me smile sort of gave me the push to do this and give you a shout out.

4. What's one thing you've never had the courage to say/ask?
I guess I would like to say that even though I've been here a while I dont really feel like I have much of a pressense on the community and it's something I'd like to work on. I get easily overwhelmed sometimes and it's hard to really keep up with everything that's going on but I tRY and I hope that doesn't make me come off as unapproachable or anything.

5. What's your favorite plot that you've seen? Are there any currently going on that you're excited for?
I remember Iaudagnire's and loved participating in it, pretty much everyone's plots have been fun to follow.

6. What's your favorite set in the game?
That's hard to choose but I tend to love using the monarch pelt. But I also love the new owl and koi sets!

7. Who's your favorite roleplay partner? Why?
Pretty much anyone who has taken the time to RP with me. I'm pretty terrible at initiating any sort of interaction so it means a bunch to anyone who has and does. And as few and far in between I've enjoyed it all!
But it goes without saying, HB, deng. Also Acurna, Hraeth, Riddled, Evern, Tuo.

8. Which character has your favorite design?
Romulus, Bohdicea, Nikhil, Rajani, Lieva, Ravenflight, Embla, Ronra, Starless, ...gosh there are more but those came to the top of my head...

9. Shout out to any new players you know of!
I don't know anyone that's new, I'd consider myself an oldie by now and I still get overwhelmed at times, don't be afraid to put yourself out there!

10. Say something nice about the last person to complete this questionnaire!
