Níðhöggr's Weekly Updates

Whats going on:



Mental: 96% / Physical: 100% \ Emotional: 100%

July 5th:
Awoke to the smell of bell flowers and pollen.
Standing up stiffly, I stretched and looked about my surroundings, careful of any danger about me. Not far off was a small collection of fawns, sprinting and skipping through the thicket. A pair of stags bellowed from afar; Walking slowly I edged close to the nearby pond to sip at it's waters alone.

Behind me a fawn begged for attention, crying incessantly for minutes as I drank. Turning slowly I found that it had gotten bored of me and skipped off after other fawns passing by.

I began walking to the assortment of large stones where I had met a kind fellow there.

Not long ago I even found a doe whom appeared to be rather interested in me...but she since then hasn't returned to the forest. I pondered this as I walked.

I reached the figure and laid upon it, meeting my friend once more, enjoying a silence that I haven't had in years.

I hope to see him again some time.


The fellow from the other day

Hey all!

I can't seem to figure out how to rid this of that ugly scroll bar.

Any tips? I've looked up fixes but I think I just don't know where to put it exactly.

:/

(Sorry for constantly asking but a stupid question is one not asked)

Hey Buddy!

I too have a scroll bar on my windows. I can't seem to get rid of them, so if I find a solution, I will be sure to pass it on to you.

ANYWAY, your bio is looking good! It's really coming along and I can't wait to see the finished product. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me! I would be happy to help if I can Laughing out loud

Wow! I actually do have

Wow! I actually do have questions! And thank you so much for saying that! I'm trying to get the character in tune with everyone else in the forest and I appreciate your comment.

Questions
  • Do roleplays go onto Bio's or do they go on "diaries/journals"?
  • Am I allowed to make more then one character or is that frowned upon?
  • When I make a new character, how do I get a new picto? Do I make one from scratch?

No problem! 1st Question:

No problem!

1st Question: Usually, you create another blog entry and label it like RP or Rp between (whoever you are rping with) and then when it asks where you want the entry to be posted, put it as Miscellaneous. That's how I have seen most people do it, but people can also do it on your bio. The only thing is, other people may comment, making it confusing to follow the RP.

2nd Question: Of course! A lot of people have multiple characters. I have another character, besides Draven, that I am hoping to start to transform. It's totally up to you though. You can have one main character, or multiple characters with various, or similar, personalities.

3rd Question: If you make a new character, you will have to get a new picto with him/her. So, you will go through the same process as you did making your first deer. Pic a user, password, and finally, a picto. Of course, sometimes they close off the signing up process, which means you won't be able to create a new account, but you should be fine. I didn't hear anything about them closing the new users yet.

Thank you so much for

Thank you so much for answering my questions. I'll be sure to try and do those things in the future when this character is actually finished.

Do you have any tips or suggestions on making a character here? Is there any "standards" that I should follow?

No standards at all! You can

No standards at all! You can shape your character however you want. You can have a character that is totally antisocial or mute. OOOOR you can make your character really outgoing and energetic. Only tip I would give you is in any bio you do, at the bottom or top of the bio, create a small disclaimer that goes something like this:

"Anything (insert your deer's name) does in completely in character and his/her actions are not personal..blah blah blah. "

It's just so nobody can get you in trouble if you get into a fight with another deer or shoo them away and then they blame you (personally) for bullying/harassment when truly, you were just acting as your character would.

I have noticed that some characters are created depending on what their picto looks like. So for instance, if someone's picto resembles a tree, they might make their deer feel connected to the Earth, or have an obsession with trees. The possibilities are endless! So get creative and outrageous with it

Oh cool okay. Next picto

Oh cool okay.

Next picto I'll have to try that out.

And when this bio is complete I'll make sure to do a disclaimer. I was wondering what a disclaimer really was around here. Like was it a Copy right thing or what but now I will make sure to do a disclaimer on a characters behavior.

Nah, some people just use the

Nah, some people just use the disclaimers to be like, "I'm in character, don't take things personally." It's more necessary if your character is a jerk or likely to offend someone. I doubt you're ever gonna need one if you have a nice character, I haven't.

It's not about copyright, since I'm pretty sure that because The Endless Forest itself has been copyrighted that none of our derivative characters can be copyrighted. No big deal, we can still have fun with them.
