Zodiac

Cyaneus's picture
, or Zodiac, is an ancient elk who has only recently chosen to receive a name from the Twin Gods. He spent his youth hidden in the Forest's darkest corners, afraid not of other deer but of the mysterious happenings that sometimes occur when the Twin Gods are about. In his old age, he has finally learned to enjoy rather than fear the strange magic that the Twin Gods work, and has decided to revere them and accept the name they have given him.

rarely runs. He is patient, and takes his time in traveling from place to place in the Forest. He enjoys slow walks with others, and sitting near the Old Oak and on the bridge, listening to the music of the water and the trees. He tolerates and is sometimes amused by the antics of fawns, but does not join them in their games. He has a special fondness for nameless deer, having been one himself for so long.

is distinguished from other deer by his shaggy chest and large, blue antlers. He usually wears the peacock mask, for he likes the way it matches his antlers and finds that it shades his eyes from the sun very well.

Nice one! But he looks more like a leader of some kind, rather than a traveller.

Xianhui: I think he may have

Xianhui: I think he may have led a herd or two in his younger days, but he considers himself "retired" from most social activities these days. He leaves the leading to the younger, fitter deer now.

Pssst ... if someone could

Pssst ... if someone could help Zodiac get the peacock mask, I'd really appreciate it. Had some fawns make a valiant attempt earlier today, but I seemed to get every other mask instead (thanks, though!) He's sleeping under a mushroom-covered tree by the pond, and will be for a few hours probably.
