Love: None, willing to find one..
Appearance: ("Handsome.")
Fan antlers, Magpie pelt, Real deer mask
Appearance is very close to that what he has in-forest with the exception that his coat is more grey than blue and his antlers have slight structural differences. Has small bitewound scars on his throat, and scars from claws on his rump. A few visible scars can be seen on his face and front legs as well. They are mostly covered by fur but may be visible when shedding or wet. Eyes are golden brown.

Zach has calmed down a little bit from his fawn days. Back then, he used to be a hyper, bouncing little ball of energy - always running around and making others dizzy. While he still has that playful side, he has "toned down" slighty. He acts a bit more calmly, especially when there are does around. He wants to be at his best behaviour around them. Having only been what others consider "an adult" for a brief time, he still finds everything about it to be fascinating. Therefore, he makes sure to keep his antlers and his coat in top condition and can often be seen grooming himself or rubbing his antlers against a tree. He wants to look presentable - it's not just the personality that counts, after all.
Despite growing up Zach still loves running. Walking, to him, seems too slow of a way to get anywhere. If he doesn't feel the wind in his coat and hear his hooves pounding the ground, it's simply not moving to him. So, a game of chase is always welcome.
Personality-wise, Zach is a friendly, playful fellow. It is very rare for anyone to see him angry or frustrated. He always seems to see the brighter things in life. He likes hanging around fawns and his behaviour towards them is always gentle and patient. Violence is something he really dislikes and therefore he tends to avoid confrontations whenever possible. His loyalty to his friends is unwavering, though - and if one finds any of them in trouble, he will do his absolute best to protect them.
"It was a rainy day when a young fawn made his way into the forest. His fur was soaked and the poor thing looked absolutely miserable. Alone, he called out for anyone who would listen. His ears flicked nervously, listening to the few sounds the pouring rain didn't cover. The few deer he met were laying under thick trees, trying to keep away from the rain. He wasn't brave enough to go share the shelter with them, and kept walking. The fawn spent his time searching for a shelter...but found a family instead."
Zach is very quiet when it comes to his past. He hasn't said a word about it since the moment he came into the forest. He must've had parents somewhere but he entered the forest alone. It is very likely that they have met a rather unfortunate end sometime before his arrival. His fear/dislike of Zombie deer may have something to do with this matter as well. He has refused to explain. More will probably be revealed with time.
(Also, the history can be found here but he has not told it to anyone except Lucian, Stelmaria and Dajhi.)
Now, as a young stag, he hasn't changed much. He has grown close to his half-brother Lucian. Without his adoptive family's care and support, things could've ended up very differently for him. He knows that too, and holds deep respect in his heart for everyone who helped him while he needed their help the most.
Maia knew something was going
I need to find her voice, but when i do, she'll start talking, I'm sure. xD
Beaumont: Zach's ears
Zach's ears flicked, listening to the doe. Wind ruffled some of his fur and he shook his head a little to try and get back into order again. Winter was downright chilly and he didn't really like it. His gaze was directed at the cloth around the doe's neck now. He had a feeling that the symbol in it had meaning. But that it wasn't exactly a name like the ones they had here. "A pirate?" he asked. "Uh, I'm going to ask even under the danger of sounding dumb..but what exactly is a pirate?" he inquired. Maybe he should take some time to learn of things that were outside the forest. He wouldn't feel so dumb now.
The..small rings the doe had in her ear - were they a doe thing, then? "How do you get something like those? Outside?" He couldn't think of any other way, really. He'd never really seen things like that discarded anywhere in the forest. Or were they gifts from the twin gods?
Kaoori: Zach felt really bad for leaving her like that without no real explanation. He'll make it up to her next time. ^_^
That fawn with Zach, with the
That's Maia. She's played by
yeah I figured that out after
The breeze that blew past
"Anyway, a pirate is a person who travels the seas with no law or country holding them back. There are two types on pirates. Peace Maines and Morganias. I myself want to be one of the first, a pirate who's in it for the adventure and only fights when they absolutely have to. Morgania on the other hand are your no good ruffions who just want power and treasure and don't care for anyone else."
She flicked her ear again and glanced up towards the silver rings. "Well... they're not something that are easy to come by as the loops are found near where these strange two legged creatures, called humans, live. They also wear them in their ears. That's where my mother got the idea from. As for getting them put in... well a sharp stick shoud help..." she fell silent suddenly and lowered her head, ears now resting flat as she looked at the male with a small sheepish grin. "Heh... I'm babling..."
There was obvious curiosity
"Humans?" Those, he had heard of. "Aren't they dangerous?" he asked, wondering why Kaides or her mother would brave going near them, let alone their homes. He winced a little in sympathy when she spoke about a stick, the mental image being quite clear.
"No, it's alright. I find all this to be rather fascinating." he assured her, smiling back at her. "I'm afraid that I have nothing of equal value to spoke of. My life's been pretty much limited to being inside this forest. I like to listen to you - you're so excited when you speak of things dear to you. The mood is contagious." he added with a small laugh.
Kaides smiled at that. It fel
"The sea is like the pond... only so big that you can't see where it meets the land on the other side. Plus it's filled with salt water and numerous creatures live in it. Surprisingly for my short life before I came into the forest, I learnt about most of this from my parents and other creatures around." she answered before her ears dropped back against her head at the question about the humans. "A lot of creatures say that. But I learnt that it's only the humans with guns and dogs you have to be careful of."
Her ears perked back up at that and she had to laugh too. "Well... talking about your dreams to someone like you, it's hard not to be excited since I know that I won't be put down or ignored. And there must be something interesting that has happened to you... even in the forest. Amazing things happen here everyday. I met you for one Zach." she said, tail wagging.
"Ah, I see." These pirates
He tried to imagine the sea. So much water that you can't see anything else? And it was salty? "I didn't know that anything could be that big." But now, new questions had made their way into his mind. "So..these pirates travel the sea? Do they swim? Or..float somehow?" he couldn't imagine that anyone, deer or human or other creature, could swim such distances. Maybe they used logs? Those floated. He nodded silently in agreement to what Kaides said about humans. Though thankfully that particular topic didn't linger.
The young stag blushed a little at the unexpected praise. Meeting him? That and amazing didn't really belong in the same sentence if someone asked him. "Heh, well. There's not much, I'm afraid." he said apologetically. "I came here as a small fawn after my parents died. Virgil adopted me into his family. I've had fun with all of them. I don't know where I'd be without them. Certainly not here talking to you." Such a small fawn as he'd been, he wouldn't have had a chance to survive this far on his own.
Kaides nodded again, watching
"I know... I myself was shocked when my mother told me about it. And when she showed me a beach I kind of freaked out. The ground was soft, but not like mud. She said it was called sand." she said befo the question made her chuckle. "They have these huge things made of wood called ships. They float on the water." she answered, also kind of glad that the topic of humans had passed.
The doe's smile grew a little at the sight of the blush and she wagged her tail happily that she was able to talk to someone who was slowly becoming a deer she knew almost as well as Lucy.
Ears turned towards him as he started to talk, the female keeping quiet. When he had finished talking she leant forward to press her nose to his neck lightly. "I'm sorry to hear about your parents. But it's nice to know Virgil adopted you."
"You've seen the sea?" he
The gentle touch on his neck got Zach to slightly turn his head to look at the doe properly again. He smiled at her and nodded his thanks. "Thank you." he said softly, sighing a little. "I owe Virgil a lot. As well as all of his friends and family members that took me in as well. They kept me company when I was alone and taught me how to get around here. Who to avoid as a fawn..and who were friends." He chuckled. "And who to tease. My favourite past-time when I was little was to spell antlers or pelts on sleeping deer and then run like the wind. I think dad was the only one who caught me." Ah! He was rambling. A slightly stronger shade of red crept onto his cheeks and his ears folded back a little in embarrassment. "Sorry. I seem to talk too much."
"Yeah... that's how I was
The thanks caused her to raise her head to look at the stag again as he started to talk. "You're lucky in that then. My mother yse to live here before going out of the forest and finding my father. Since she left she couldn't come back so I came here by myself and my brother followed a little while after..." she said before letting out a chuckle at the pranks he had pulled. "Sounds like fun... I've never done it though." she commented before the darker shade on his cheeks made her smile softly. "No, no... it's perfectly ok. This would probably be the most I've talked with anyone so it's all good."
Zach laughed softly, nodding
"How long have you been here in the forest, then? If you don't mind me asking?" he inquired. He'd only been here from last summer. He hadn't seen her around much, though. Or then he'd just never really noticed her which was possible too with the large amount of deer that inhabited the forest. "Huh? You've never pranked others like that?" he asked in amazement. "You should. It's fun. and turning them into peacocks is fun as well, if they do not wake from the first spell." he added with a grin. "We can try it together sometime." he suggested. It might be fun.
"Well that's true... but then
Ear flicked towards Zach and she looked back to him. "Probably a little less then you. I was just off a year when I came into the forest and it was a couple of months before my brother showed up." she said before his question had her shaking her head. "I've never really thought about it. But now that you've brought it up it sounds really fun." she said, chuckling softly at the thought of them waking up and herself or Zach having to run away. "Sounds like a plan."
Zach smiled warmly, nodding.
He grinned, his own tail wagging a little when she seemed to get excited about the pranking. "Brilliant." he replied, smiling widely. "I'm ready whenever you are."
The stag was easy to talk to
Kaides' own smile turned into a small grin at the obvious excitement now in his eyes and the aura around him. "Well I don't mind when we start... I have all the time in the world."
(I actually tried it with Wings today, but the pelt didn't change... >.>.... XD)
Zach chuckled, amused.
He shook his head a little, being mindful of his antlers when she was so close. He didn't want to accidentally hit her with them or something. That would be rude..not to mention that it would also probably hurt. "Well, me too." he grinned. "Soo..what do you say about now?" he asked, giving her a playful look. If the doe wanted to, they could go and hunt down some unsuspecting sleeping deer to spell.
(bummer. XD Either you weren't properly logged in (since that prevents spells from working on people when you cast them) or then you just managed to cast the same pelt. It happens. XD)
"Butterflies, dragonflies...
She raised her eyebrows at the question, the smile on her lips turning into a smirk as she moved to lift herself to her feet, stretching her legs. "Sounds wonderful." she answered, shaking the leaves that had attached themselves to her pelt back onto the forest floor. "There always seem to be sleeping deer around the pond... So let's start there."
(Knowing my luck it cast the same pelt.... >.>'.... XD)
Zach tilted his head a
It took a moment for Zach to actually realise that she was willing to go here and now. He grinned once more when she got up and moved to swiftly follow her example. He stretched and took a few steps, listening and trying to pick up a few scents from the air around them. The wind was making that a little tricky, however. "Good idea. Ladies first." he offered, giving her a playful bow as he waited for them to go.
(Maybe we can leave them here? I'm sure they'll find someone to spell. ;D)
(Of course they'll find
Kaides smiled at his manners and turned herself towards the direction of the pond, starting off at a slow trot. This was going to be fun...
I just saw the "recent

We seem to miss each other
Hopefully soon they'll meet again.

♥ Thanks for sitting
Thanks for sitting with Zach. He's not too fond of the rain, so it was nice to have some company from Hikari to share it with. ^_^
Edit: Oh..and the link in your signature..it takes to a "page not found". That's probably not the intention?
Your welcome. Hikari was
Thanks I will get right on fixing that.
Thank you sososo much for
Thank you sososo much for helping me get Kody's pelt <3 ;;
It would've taken forever if I done it on my own since I was lagging terribly LOL.
Sorry he kinda walked off a bit, I actually thought Zach had left since I didn't see him until he flew away D: <3
Always ready to help a friend
No worries. I don't mind at all. He kept Kody company until he woke up. ^_^
Thanks for the great time. Zach needed a good run and some good company. Plus he needs to build up some endurance for the upcoming rut, eh? XD
Pfft, thanks again
Pfft, thanks again <3 8D
It's been a while since they're hung out, I'm glad they did :'D
I have no idea when this rut is. I don't take part in it since Kody's a wolf LOL.
I'm guessing it's soon though C:
Last year it was sometime in
And Zach was happy to spend some time with Kody. He appreciates Kody's company.

Hello there, and thank you.

My fawn, Sandpiper is not usually like this she would normally hate spell spamming and jumping but you and that other deer changed her opinion. You see, she is not the socialize kind of character. She usually either attack someone and runs away. (She is a lizard/deer and she's based off my pet lizard, lol)
And she lost her set T_T
Well, I'm glad that Eira and
Feel free to spend more time with Zach if you see him around, I'm sure he won't mind.
