Saater-FernelescentArt by Fernelescent


Nature: The soul of a dead man in the body of a deer with a human face.

Name: Saater. It was a word he remembered from the first time he woke up in the Forest. Maybe it wasn't a first name, but a surname. Or maybe it was the name of his best friend or his cat.

Gender: Male. He has trouble adjusting to his deer form, so he avoids romance.

Age: Saater died as a human when he was 21 years old. He is now an immortal creature and is able to change his age at will: he can be old, an adult, or a fawn.

Sign: Possibly Pisces. Saater can't remember what day he was born when he was human, and he hasn't found any recognizable constellations in the sky in the Endless Forest.

Character Traits: He is very kind, trustful,, compassionate and empathetic, but carries a hidden pain in his heart. He suffers from bipolar disorder: sometimes he is active, cheerful and playful, sometimes he is melancholic and unsociable. Believes in God. Fatalist.

Saater (we'll call him that) grew up with loving parents in a world similar to ours. He was thoughtful, empathetic, friendly but a little cowardly. Avoided conflict, loved poetry, philosophy and music. He had an older brother, weak from birth, who was seriously ill. Saater was very attached to him. Overcoming his cowardice, he always defended him and read poetry to him at home. Saater had true friends - schoolmates. They were almost inseparable. He liked one girl, but he was afraid to admit his sympathy for her.

Who is Fey Brother? A note from his creator

When it comes to Theodor-Phillip, it's important to separate what he *thinks* he is and what is actually going on.

He sees himself as this "Forest Merry Spirit", an eternal entity that possesses body after body and needs physical form as a vessel.
This is only a response to traumatic events he witnessed as a fawn. Many fawns lose their mothers at a young age, and Theo wasn't an exception. The picture of a dead doe he beloved shocked the guy, but he was still too little to proceed those feelings.
He just kinda... moved on. Surviving was his top priority, and slowly but surely the grief was supressed. That's when the whole Forest Spirit thing started.
Instead of considering himself an orphan on his own, Theo decided to be optimistic and say he's a child of the Forest. That is also the reason why he sees Forest as a female. Being her ambassador gives Brother Theo a meaning in life, which he otherwise would've lost long time ago. "What do you do if you *don't* make everyone happy all the time", right?
Of course he does not possess multiple bodies: it's just a dissosiation from fatigue he gets from time to time (it's not easy dancing that much!). He might even realize that. But what harm does that little play pretend make? So what if it's not real -- it sooths him and then he does good deeds to others.

In the end does ot really matter if you're a Forest Spirit or just some random deer?

Behold, I am Pilgor The Chaos Harbinger!

I don't remember how I woke up in this Forest, but I know for sure that before being a... pathetic fawn I was once the Mighty Chaos Harbinger! I remember residents screaming, running from me, from my antics. And I. Loved. It. I was The God (or... Goat?) they were afraid of - as they should.
Again, don't know what happened, but I'm not planning on becoming some ordinary deer with a face. Even if it has magic - back in my realm I had powers way more impressive than that! So get ready, The Endless Forest, Pilgor is on their way to destroy you!

NOTE:I saw some others making bios for their deer, so I decided to hop in! Pls bear in mind that this is largely a WIP, and may be messy or inaccurate at times ^^;

ABOUT

I can finally play on windows 11

After troubleshooting TEF on Windows 11...for like six hours (whoops)...the only set up that works at all was manually adding the app into the graphics settings and changing the preference to High Performance, combined with changing the Compatibility to run the game on Windows 7 and deselecting the screen resolution setting (though, I'm not sure if this affected much other than the doubling window display that kept occurring for me).

Windows Search Arrow System > Display > Graphics > [browse and add application] > select "ForestViewer" > Options: High Performance

Right-click Application Arrow Properties > Compatibility tab > 1) Compatibility Mode: Windows 7; and 2) Settings: deselect "Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution"

Worked smooth as long as I didn't disconnect to the network while in-game, otherwise it would crash and refuse to open again. Had to uninstall and reinstall to fix this. Running older games on Windows 11 seemed to be a known issue within the forums so I added the instructions in case it helps anyone!

The only problem I have now is logging in to my old old old account— waiting fifteen minutes of "logging in" without any results! Guess that's my punishment for having a 12yo inactive account lol. In the meantime, exploring as a guest deer ain't so bad (I do still miss my og stags)

Wow my account is still here!

I had a dream about this game a couple days ago so I went looking for it again—my accounts still exist!!

This is a crazy nostalgia trip; I've even gone through my old sketchbooks and found little doodles of my deer from middle school/early high school <3 I'm glad this gem of a game is still around, especially since quite a few of old mmorpgs I used to play are gone now!

This really is The Endless Forest.
