I was wandering through the support forum when I came across an interesting post on someones idea about making a new part of TEF called The Black Forest where it would be dark and the trees would be closer. In which wolves will attempt to ambush your deer and chase it down, if you were to be killed by a wolf your deer will transform into a wolf itself, and you would try to kill another deer in order to return to you return to your original state. But the wolves can not leave the Black Forest. But of course the are some major flaws in this idea.

1. TEF is supposed to be somewhat light-hearted, adding predators and "killing" other deer just would not fit into TEF

2. It would be very laborous and time consuming to create another part of the forest along with correct wolf movements and having to make them playable.

3. Wolves are very popular animals among people (including myself) therefore the majority of the players will spend most of the time in that one area, leaving the rest of the forest deserted and those not wishing to go into the Black Forest rather lonely.

Now, I have an idea that still supports the main point of the Black Forest but is quite altered to a degree. At least once a month the gods will summon a thunderstorm (at a time of choosing) in which it will be quite dark. During the thunderstorm players will be stalked and chased by a "phantom-like" deer which I have given the name The Wraith. If a deer was to be "caught" by The Wraith it would have a spell cast on it, I have some theories of what the spell will do, perhaps giving the player's deer bizarre or scary hallucinations (Which would also be viewable by the player to a certain degree, I have no wish to scare players too much) for around 15 seconds, by then The Wraith would likely looking for another victim and the deer would be snapped out of the trance. This idea would be able to entertain the player's desire of thrill while keeping the experience free from gore.
