Stormbringer

The first dim rays of sunlight shone through the thick boughs of the trees, a jumble of oak, redwood, pine, popular, and the occasional stray birch. A small circular cluster of reddish white toadstools formed a tightly knit fairy ring around my body. As the flickering warmth of the new dawn tempted me from my rest, soft sounds echoed richly from within the curving barriers of leaf and stone that surrounded me. The sound of softly gurgling water and the high trilling laughter of fawns sang dizzily to the melody of the song birds. A whisper of rabbit ear moss and moor heather curled into the depths of my conscience, lifting the tired rims of my lightly hued eyelids, tickling my long black eyelashes into the thin crack that had formed along my dimly lit iris. Stifling a yawn, I looked around the sun touched sides of my cavern. River moss softened the mellow, rich dirt that clumped in the corners of the cave, well lichen and ivy tendrils danced softly to the cooing caress of the forest breezes, lighting the shallow pool of rain and river water collected in the corner of my secret sanctuary, pure and cold, but sweet like the meadow grass that grew at the Twin Gods shrine. The vibrant hues of poppy and wild marigold blended o the harmonies pigment of the lovely and mesmerizing scents of wild Thyme and garlic, with strong whiffs of basil and other earthen herbs. Morning had come at last.

This is my first Diary entry. I hope you like it!

Very beautiful writing,

Very beautiful writing, lovely descriptions!

But, um, may I ask about your character's name? You see, I have a character named Stormbringer (who is very different from yours, it seems) but since it is quite a specific name, there might be some confusion between the two.

So I'm asking, could you maybe, perhaps, change it? I understand if you don't want to and that is fine, I just thought I would ask.

Tentivly, I stood and

Tentivly, I stood and stretched my legs, equal amount of pain and relief sq=wirling through my blood stream and fluttering like nervous butterflies in the pit of my stomach before settling down in contentmint. Gathering up the shattered tendrils of bravery, I prepared to leave my cave. Finnally, I took a big breath, a last look at the comfortable accomadations that hid me from sight, and leaped out into the new day. Two things happend at once. For a split second, black and white lights spun and flashed as sunlight burned my gze into a side ways view of painful red between blinking. All of this happend right before I rammed into something tall and sturdy, and about as hard as your average rock. Ouch. Unfortunetly, it was not a rock. It was not a fawn. Or a doe. it was a stag. A really big, rilly strong, really pissed off stag. Oops. i stumbled back, alarmed, bowing ( well it looked more like overexageratedflinching. Crap. This was just not my day.

Stormbringer is the name of

Stormbringer is the name of my fawn, and I am sorry, (Thank you for your complements) but I am unwilling to change it. It has been the original name of my doe, and I have featured it in multiple rp sites, for over three years now. But for the most part, I call her Storm, not Stormbringer.

And thank you. I'm sorry that our names clash, but I wish you well. Indeed, I saw your image of Stormbringer. I was wondering: How old is your Stormbringer?

As I bowed vigorously, I

As I bowed vigorously, I tried to glimpse the face of the stag, in between the dipping of my head. What I saw sent a shiver down my spine. It covered my skin with a soft layer of fear and an icy chill of dread and despair. From its black hooves up, it was dressed in a night dark pelt with small maligent tendrils of deep maroon spilling from the crest of its spine, down its back, and in squiggly lines down its side. At the neck, a large, hollow skull sprouted from its throat, masking its features beneath. But just at the edge of the skull mask, I saw the a stark white face beneath, and when the Stag turned to look into my eyes, All I could see was the blood trickling down the interlining of its face, past the black pits of its eyes. Then I saw the stag smile. And I swear, I have never seen any thing scarier in all my life, or since. At first I thought it was going to bellow angrily at me, or try and eat me.
(What?? There are cannibal deer! I think . . .) But it did something much worse. It stood there, with its rows of white teeth, all sharpened to a point and drenched in a red mixture of blood and sweat and terror. My eyes rolled back into my head, and I stumbled away, off into the forest as fast as my legs could carry me. Away, away, from something only words can partial describe. When I had run as far I could, I collapsed, my energy spent, but my fear still new as a spring bird. I had only a second to think before I fell into a deep sleep: I am completely, and utterly lost.

Not as old as yours -- his

Not as old as yours -- his concept has been inside my head for almost a year, but the first picture I have is from this latest autumn.

Cool, I like his picture.

Cool, I like his picture. Usually my Stormbringer is a bit darker then my fawn, but I was feeling unoriginal, and just went with my familar name. ^^
