Question involving your deer having a human form...

quadraptor's picture
I just have a simple question to those who do human characters. I've never officially had a human form for Quad, but in a roleplay I'm doing with Chickenwhite, I'm planning on Quad getting a human form since he has been able to shapeshift into other animals such as a wolf, tiger, and a small bird.

Anyway, my question is this - does your deer's human form have to resemble the way they are as their deer? Are there human forms that are completely different than their deer forms?

The reason why I ask is because I'd like Quad's human form to be that of a samurai. He'd probably much more resemble Quad Wolf rather than his deer form (more serious, very meditative, enjoys answering questions people give him).

If this is impossible for me to do, please let me know. I don't know much of anything about human forms but I know a lot of you have them in TEF.

It is not my deer if they

It is not my deer if they have cetain markings or traits their human form will have them as well. It's possible.Smiling

You can do whatever you want?

You can do whatever you want? There are no rules whatsoever. You could even make him a woman if that's what you fancy.
It's up to you you you you you! Not up to us.

Well I wasn't sure if there

Well I wasn't sure if there were rules on human forms. I can understand that Quad would be different as a human than he would be as a wolf, deer, tiger, ect. Heck, when he's in his tiger form he is angry, vengeful, ect. So I now can see that as a human he can have a different personality.

Thanks, I simply wasn't informed. I have no idea what he'll look like, though. I always said he'd look kind of like me as far as his face, but I think I'm just going to look up some samurai and model him after one of them. I did that before with an old character of mine, I modeled him after Parn from Record of the Lodoss War.

There are rules on nothing!

There are rules on nothing! The only rules is to be happy yourself with what choices you make.
I think Quad's different forms are interesting, and I'm curious to see what you do with a human version!

Mine keep like their hair and basic facial features and such....but you can do whatever you like, as has been said there are no rules on the subject.

I sort of wondered about this

I sort of wondered about this too, how people handle playing a human version of their deer.

I'm agreeing with Mis here.

Although, if it's any educational use to you, my character has a human form, but he is barely related to the deer. Virdeer and Virhuman are as good as two completely seperate characters, and their life does not physically mingle. ^^

I'd say do whatever you

I'd say do whatever you want~
Only three of my deer have human forms and they keep their general physical oddities between forms as goes for two of them, but the third one doesn't look anything alike from one form to the other. It even changes gender if it wants to XD

No, wait, make that four of my deer... argh, five! God, I feel like I have so many... <___<
... Okay, six. And that's without forgetting anyone.
I think <_____<

It can be however you like.

It can be however you like. It's your character and nobody else's

Human Villy is much more cynical than his deer self, much less playful.
I could go through all my durr but that could take some time xD

I actually have a charcter I

I actually have a charcter I am gonna create in-forest, named 'Munkustrap', after the movie-musical.. thingy, CATS. He has an anthro form, as per the movie. He's the tribal leader of the Jellicuse tribe with an interesting past - I'll flesh him out later. But yes, he is a human-cat.. thing. Do whatever you please, no one can stop you.

(Oh, and no, you may not steal his name. Mineminemine.)


More info on Munkustrap can be found Here. I just Google searched. Sticking out tongue
