Fledermaus's picture

Bet'cha didn't know....

I have a list of totally random and meaningless trivia about my deer/my TEF experience. None of it is particularily interesting, but I thought at least someone might get a kick out of it. Like those pop-up videos VH1 has sometimes, filled with useless facts. 8D

Here's a handfull of 'em:

- Fledermaus was originally the blond. WOAH. I even have a long-time ago sketch of this that will never see the light of day.

- Desanm's picto bears an identical piece to part of Masque's (the vertical line with the small box attatched to the top left)

- Fledermaus' original set had the orca mask instead of the magpie, he wore it for a god couple of months before changing.

- Masque's original set had the magpie antlers instead of the fan antlers, I changed them because they weren't intimidating enough.

- This is obvious, but Fledermaus and Masque have the inverse of each other's sets (Great Argus and fan).

- The color codes for both of them have a 'cb' in them, which I didn't realize until waaay later, I just picked them at random. Spooky.

- I downloaded TEF in Fall of 2007- but due to a bad wireless network I was never able to play and forgot about it, until I came home for the summer (2008) and tried it again, and I've been in lurve since then. :3

- I found out about TEF through a posting by on a forum I used to frequent for about 4 years (RWTW!) Also from that forum were Corgi, frith, Ghost, and Wuffers.

- I had a hard time choosing a name for Desanm. Some of my options were: Devanjou (meaning dawn), Livè (meaning winter), Lotus, & Jade. Like any of them better? ;D

- The surname Rineheart has about a billion variations. It was originally Rhinehart, an allusion to both the Rhine river in Germany and the term for a male deer, a hart. As a surname, it means "determined". The first variation is just more aesthetically pleasing to me. xD

- I had no intention of having more than 1 deer for the longest time.

Sketch Requests - because everyone deserves a gift [closed] [complete requests linked]

Requests are done. 8] Now to focus on the people who didn't ask for a drawing...

Don't be shy or put off by the amount. You know want one. 8] And I can draw fast.

Digital sketch requests!

I'll be drawing at my usual 700 x 600 pixels, since that fits best on my screen.

Info I need:
Which deer?:
Their looks: give a good description of what they look like (set, differences from in-game appearance, etc.), though a pic would be the easiest to work from
Personality/pose: give me as much information as you can here, since it'll help me figure out how to draw them. A pose you would like them in, a brief description of their personality, or both. The more info, the sooner I can get your sketch done. =]
Color: the color I will draw in. Since these are digital sketches, you're not limited to just the gray of a pencil. But just one color please. You can even give me the hex code for it.

All of the other Reindeer...

Are there any other Caribou or Reindeer?
I mean technically they're the same thing..

What I was thinking of doing, was drawing some TEF deer as Santa's reindeer with bells and red tack and all.

So, are there any other Caribou or Reindeer out there? there's Zelig and Toukan, for sure...

If not I'll pick some other deer that are kinda like reindeer =P Like Dag and Virgy and some of the other realistic ones, etc, you know.

Thoughts?

sorry if i seem rude

I am signing on and off the game a lot. I am having a little issue with it that I think is resolved now

Male/Female/Offspring Deer Terminology

Just because I see alot of people miss-labling their deer. Sticking out tongue

Here's the way it goes:

"For most deer the male is called a buck and the female is a doe, according to the size of the species. For many medium-sized deer the male is a stag and the female a hind, while for many larger deer the same words are used as for cattle: bull and cow. Terms for young deer vary similarly, with that of most being called a fawn and that of the larger species calf; young of the smallest kinds may be a kid. A group of deer of any kind is a herd. Usage of all these terms may also vary according to dialect. The adjective of relation pertaining to deer is cervine; like the family name "Cervidae" this is from Latin cervus, "deer."

The word 'hart' is an old alternative word for "stag", especially in a (British) Medieval hunting context."

So yes.
If your deer is a whitetail or a deer of similar size, also including many smaller deer, it's either a doe, a buck, or a fawn.

If your deer is slightly larger, fitting into the 'medium' size catagory, it is a stag, hind, or a fawn.

If your deer is HUGEEE, like a moose, it is either a bull, a cow, or a calf.

OKAY? <3

Um... Hi...

Yeah. I'm not dead.

Does anyone remember me? I'm sorry I've been away so long :c. I miss everybody so much. Especially my little Quamarmar, and Danniikins, and Draak, and GAH.

Wow, everything seems so different... So many new people. Is there still space for a Golden Oldie? I still have a mac. So still no forest :'c. I may be getting a PC for xmas though.. *finger crosses*.

So.. just a brief pop in to say Hi, and that I miss you all very much. I'll try to be back here more often, I promise.

With much love, Tabithaaa <3
