Miscellaneous

Honestly, this is something that very much intrigued me when it came down to character names.

I come from a roleplay community where when we searched for baby players or parents. The baby players would design the baby, but the name picking belonged to the parents. Most often it was like this at least.

It really felt interesting, it's somewhat a surprise for the parents how their baby gonna look, so it's exciting. But it's also a surprise to the baby player, on what name they'll have.
It's usually not an issue often enough since parents tend to give sensible and beautiful names to their kids, plus you tend to grow attached to the given name either way.
At least for some people, picking a name can be tedious so we'll end up resorting to asking for suggestions either way.

I'm always a bit saddened that this practice was very limited in its scope. But I suppose having neigh all the freedom is pretty nifty as well.
Plus I really miss that lol, I'm one of the people that can't decide often enough and If I don't pick a sensible name soon enough the 'silly work in progress nickname' ends up the one to stay oofff...... xD

I wonder what you guys prefer?
Are you one of those people that find having a name picked for you exciting?
Do you find picking names difficult and you end up resorting to parent suggested ones anyway?
Or how do you feel like about the name themes (I once had a character that went with Shakespearean inspired names. Or names belonging to X cultures.)
Do you prefer to be in total control over the naming process (as a parent or baby)
As a parent, do you find anticipating what name the kids pick exciting?
As a kid, do you find the anticipating what name the parents pick exciting?
Would you mind or not mind having a name picked for you?

The design. It is questionable how much is marking and how much is paint. But I always thought it would be intriguing if the white on the face were really makeup (or maybe it's really white) and the facepaint would change from instance to instance. Kabuki inspired.
Or maybe it's all just marking, who knows, not me for sure.

Regardless. This is the design up for grabs to play a fawn of The Apprentice and Hanae. (poke me for pictures of the mam if you'd rather design your own.) The fawns would be part sika deer and part tengu. They can have a human(and tengu), Japanese hawk-or-kite or sika deer facial features and anything between.
They're of Japanese descent.

It started as a small idea of a discord group where I could compile my translations for the book about Deer by Ferdinand von Raesfeld and Kurt Reulecke. A book very in-depth about red deer which sadly has no english translation.
But the concept has since changed.

Now it's a group dedicated to deer where everyone can share resources related to biology, behaviour and anatomy. Or just learn about deer, discuss deer and our deery characters or plan out rp where we can try apply some of our knowledge in practice.
There are also channels in the sideline dedicated to birdwatching, botanics and other animals, so there may be a little bit for everyone around.
It's also a very light-weight group.

It now includes it's first information entries, and we're already plotting for some good fun.

Everyone is welcome.
It's called The Wild Ones and its acronym is TWO.

*Oh, it's snowing! You stick your tongue out to allow the small frozen flakes to fall into your mouth. Mmm. As you look around the vast whiteness of the horizon, you notice a lone, black Dire wolf coming your way. Uh oh, things might get rough. Though, as this wolf approaches you, he seems rather kind. Hes curious, but his demeanor tells you that he is obviously no threat.*

*"Hello there!" He called, wagging his tail as he trots up to you. The pair of you exchange a greeting before you just have to ask, what exactly is this place?*

*"This is the land of Ahragon." The black wolf states, "Four kingdoms live here, though we don't always get along."*

*You ask why, wouldn't it be easier to get along with one another rather than fight? The black wolf explains to you that it wasn't always this way, but with the various species of folklore that roam outside the kingdoms, the fight for habitable land was never ceasing. Habitable land? Folklore? What on earth. This wolf must be crazy! He informs you that his kingdom, the kingdom of Ulvin, thrives the best right now. Even though it is surrounded by the creatures. So, what exactly are the creatures?*

*"We mostly have a hard time with Wendigos." He stated, clicking his tongue for a moment before asking if you had ever seen one. You shake your head no. You don't really want to see one, especially when they are called a **when-di-go,** or however he said it.*

*"The Wendigos are foul creatures, they sing songs and scream out of those who desire affection, or who are lonely. That's why I came up to you, I wasn't sure if you were okay, and I didn't want you to have a run in with one of those things." You thank the wolf, but say that you are alright.*

*"If you would like, you could probably join one of the four kingdoms. As long as you don't have any kind of folklore DNA." The wolf chuckled, but you could tell he was being serious. Hmm. You might just have to take him up on that offer.

what it says on the tin. there was a link in the main discord but it expired. would really like to join it if it's still active < / 3

Hi! I'm new to the Endless Forest, and I'm excited to join in all the tranquil fun that it holds. I can't wait to meet all my fellow deer friends!

I have had a very old TEF account and was wondering what ways could i recover it if any?
I have tried through the new password, but it seems to me email accounts and TEF accounts don't link with eachother.
Any help? :')

Hello! Sorry for not being active, I'm in the process of getting a new computer. I feel like this is an endless cycle of being active, dying for 6 months, then resurfacing with an excuse. I really hate it.
