I instantiate for my evening stroll. Quiet tonight, deer are sleeping, but that's fine, it's still pleasantly chill to be here.

I commence existence in what I think is close to my currently appropriate form. I like the ram horns, I like the light grey pelt, and the real deer mask is also cool, even if it doesn't match my pelt. And I think the species mixture suits me, being a human whose primary "influential animal" has always been an ox, being a deer that's part sheep.

Yes, that's me.



I've given the forest most of my monitor tonight, which is nice, as I can get more detailed screenshots. Deer are sleeping, and as I walk around I take a good look at them, and a picture too, as it will help me to learn the pictos of everyone. I hope they don't mind if I stand quietly by to have a look.

These guys are nearly always asleep here by the ruins. That swirly red and black pelt is very striking.



The butterfly set is also very distinctive. I like the variance in the different sets. Perhaps ram horns aren't that divergent after all.



The skull mask is one I have admired before, and actually evokes a Welsh traditional costume called the Mari Lwyd in which a dancer using a horse skull mask features. It reminds me of the first time I saw Widmung.



The skeleton pelt is nice too. I guess that one only gets allocated at Haloween.

Thought I'd go for my usual night stroll, see if anyone's around.

Yeah I like these horns. I don't think I can put flowers on them though but they do look kinda cool.



Oh hey I'm not alone! Good evening/temporal greeting appropriate to your timezone!



there's more? Hi there!



actually now that more deer awake than I've ever seen! Hey everyone, lovely to see you all! Saater, always great to see you! Is that Eris over there too? And more pictos than I know, I'm going to have to be looking those up...



Hey Widmung, lovely to see you too! How cool is this seeing so many deer here!

Frolicking ensues, much to my delight.

At one point I stopped to take a screenshot and everything got a bit laggy and I managed to lose everyone and had to run around the whole forest until I found you all again. Daft ox. Haha. I was so pleased to get back to you all.



And I got utterly blasted with forest magic again and again



I got to try a bunch of cool new looks.



BLAM! Hit with the glow again. This is so much fun



Then we all had a bit of a dance. Forest rave haha!



During all this I am absolutely grinning like a bastard, I should add.

How cool does Saater look here with the light coming from their antlers. Look at that!



At times everyone was just glowing. It was quite magical!



I really didn't expect to have so much company. I never have before and it was lovely!

"it's super late" I thought, "I should go to bed" I thought, but I just wanted to see a bit of forest..

for a while I trotted around and everyone was asleep (having im-batted myself)

and then you were there, Saater and Widmung together, so lovely to see the two friends together and to run around with them!

Got a bunch of magic cast on me, I am starting to get an idea of what I want my deer to end up looking like...

Sorry I didn't stay longer but it really is super late here.

But so happy to see you two!



(ah yes now I remember how to put images in, it's been a while since I've touched an img src tag haha)

Off to bed with a big smile. Looking forward to seeing you again and thanks for the frolics!

I am having trouble moving the signature to the right side of the page. If someone could help me, I would really appreciate it.

I have had A Day today, a couple of utterly bizarre and stressful things happened, one of them necessitating calling out the emergency vet. I need some deer time.

I come into existence and... um...

I'm a bat.

Hey guys, nice to see you, I'm up here, being a bat!

https://imgur.com/PXOqE3q

I'll go to the water fountain, inside the mushrooms there magic wears off, perhaps that'll make me a deer again.

https://imgur.com/KZILRKK

YES! Deer. Posh new antlers and all.

I'm sure now when I leave here I'll be a perfectly normal...

https://imgur.com/zRudk07

BAT. I'm still a bat.

Perhaps I can pray the bat away?

https://imgur.com/1u18NJI

Nope! Bats can't pray!

Oh HEY IT's SAATER! I am so happy to see you! I'm over here, being a bat, please excuse my bat-ness!

https://imgur.com/BJbdaqf

We run around and frolic (as best as I can frolic, being a bat). Now I am really smiling despite being a bat.

We head to the drinking fountain and I am happy to be able to finally greet Saater in my deer form.

https://imgur.com/Z11jFZu

We drink the water and I come up frog, twice. Saater looks nicer as a fluffy bunny.

https://imgur.com/d7MIs65

And their deer form always looks super cool too.

https://imgur.com/KtWJTP7

I shall have to think about what I want my deer form to look like too, now that I am grown. Hey, maybe this time when I leave the circle I will be...

Nope, still bat

And after a little more frolicking I headed back to the little hill to sleep. Thank you Saater for being there exactly when I needed just to run, frolic and hang out with another deer in the forest (or flap, at least, being as I was a bat).

Your company was very much appreciated, and now I can go to bed with a smile on my face after a rough day.

_{cue my old fashioned ways again making a bio on the tef site}

Came into existence on the little hill, once again I'm intersecting with someone else, sorry!

And oh, I'm a proper stag now!

Look at my antlers!

Last night I tried to come here but I guess the server was down, there was no connection and the forest was empty. But tonight everyone's here again and I met someone who was awake.

https://imgur.com/4qGYOLf

They cast a bunch of magic on me and now it doesn't wear off!

https://imgur.com/ORl3wgY

There were other deer around too, I thought this was Saater from the pelt but that's not their glyph I don't think. There was a faun running around at some point too but I didn't get to see them up close.

We had a bunch of fun, there was a lot of running and frolicking.

Managed to get another mid-leap selfie.

Tried on the red pelt myself!

I don't think I've seen anyone who's a mini-deer like this before. I guess that's a new mode since I was here long ago. Looks cool!

Investigating the rock structures.

Here we look like one long deer intersecting a tree haha

Resting for a few moments.

https://imgur.com/BsRAPQf

It's good to see a bunch of deer around.

https://imgur.com/6ILW6ZS

We went to the water fountain where I became a frog and they were a crow.

https://imgur.com/wvmVsSi

We tried a second time and they were a bunny and I was... a frog again lol.

They looked way cuter than me.

Then it was time for me to head back to the little hill, to sleep. My companion cast some cool antlers on me, which I can retain now that I am grown up!

Thank you for spending time playing with me! It has made my first day as a grown stag a lot of fun <3
