Quality Discourse: Endless Forest Spotlight

The temperature started to rise at snail speed, winter unwilling to realize it icy grip on the beautiful forest, much to the dismay to some of the dear. Mystic enjoyed the winter ,in all honesty, the cold was a shock to the senses and made him feel alive the first time it hit his brown fur – it had been his first winter, you see. The fawn also enjoyed the fact that, the winter brought people together – friends, family, and even strangers huddle together for warmth, meeting others and mingling. Yet sometimes it could be cruel, many young fawn may not make it this winter or anyone wounded – unless they had herbs at hand and knew how to use them. But life needs it’s balance, even when it comes to death, thinking about the twin gods.

This chilly ,winter morning , he was on a hunt for someone he had meant a few months ago. One of the first deer he had ever meant, wise and quite approachable - Lucas. He had hopped to find him by the lakes he said he’d teach him how to swim at, but the ice covering the water had made that promise wait just a bit longer to be fulfilled. Looking around know, walking along the stream coming close to the bridge. I’ll keep looking to late evening – then I’ll have to get home before it gets to cold, he thought. Mystic wondered what the stag would say, he had changed a little over the months. Stronger, slightly bigger, he had also gained a few more markings and some locks of maroon started to form on his head – hopping for antlers later in life.

Character Idea

His name is Erebus.

I don't know if anyone's posted about this game yet on here, but if not, well here it is.

I found a neat game on Steam called The Deer God.





In the game, you were a hunter, but after an unfortunate event, you die and meet the Deer God, who reincarnates you as a fawn. You go through a journey to find various powers and to essentially restore the Deer God to their rightful glory. The path is very treacherous as you have many natural predators and there are a lot of obstacles like forest fires and spike pitfalls that can kill you. Also depending on how you 'behave' in the game is whether you are reincarnated as a fawn again, or if you are attacking innocent animals like other deer, rabbits, otters, ect...the Deer God may punish you for misbehaving. The first time I played through, I was attacking anything and everything and then died in a fire, and the Deer God punished me and transformed me into a porcupine, which cannot jump. I got stuck in a crevice where I starved to death and it was a game over. I also have heard that you can be turned into grass which the rabbits eat.

Anyway, I've encountered foxes, snakes, alligators, piranha, aggressive birds, scorpions...even other hunters. I've also read that when you grow older in the game, you can not only mate with does, but may have to fight other stags as well.

It's a challenging game, and I've only played a little of it and can't tell you how many times I've fallen into a pit of death, but I am very intrigued as to what'll happen later in the game and will be playing it a bunch.
