Nature: The soul of a dead man in the body of a deer with a human face.
Name: Saater. It was a word he remembered from the first time he woke up in the Forest. Maybe it wasn't a first name, but a surname. Or maybe it was the name of his best friend or his cat.
Gender: Male. He has trouble adjusting to his deer form, so he avoids romance.
Age: Saater died as a human when he was 21 years old. He is now an immortal creature and is able to change his age at will: he can be old, an adult, or a fawn.
Sign: Possibly Pisces. Saater can't remember what day he was born when he was human, and he hasn't found any recognizable constellations in the sky in the Endless Forest.
Character Traits: He is very kind, trustful,, compassionate and empathetic, but carries a hidden pain in his heart. He suffers from bipolar disorder: sometimes he is active, cheerful and playful, sometimes he is melancholic and unsociable. Believes in God. Fatalist.

Saater (we'll call him that) grew up with loving parents in a world similar to ours. He was thoughtful, empathetic, friendly but a little cowardly. Avoided conflict, loved poetry, philosophy and music. He had an older brother, weak from birth, who was seriously ill. Saater was very attached to him. Overcoming his cowardice, he always defended him and read poetry to him at home. Saater had true friends - schoolmates. They were almost inseparable. He liked one girl, but he was afraid to admit his sympathy for her. Perhaps his life would have turned out well. But he lived in a country with a dictatorship. The dictator started a war and Saater, though he was a teenager, had to join the army otherwise his mother and his brother would have been imprisoned or killed. His father was killed in battle, his mother was killed by a bomb. The helpless brother was left alone. One by one his best friends died, until finally it was his turn to die. His death was slow. He became entangled in barbed wire and bled to death.
When he woke up in the Forest, in the body of a deer with a human face and long black hair, he remembered nothing. All that remained with him was the pain of losing his family and friends. Saater began to live in the Ruins, in the cemetery. He wept over unknown graves and slept in a deep pit. Other deer met him, and they were very kind to him. And soon Saater had settled into the Endless Forest.
Fernelescent and Widmung became mother and father to him. Rindea, Fjara, Atlas and Cu became his heartfelt friends. Soon Saater met his brother as well. In the Forest, his brother's name was Eris. Saater also met a beautiful white doe named Serra. He felt he had known her before.
Saater continues to sleep in the pit and weep over the graves, but when he meets his friends, he is happy and has great fun with them.

Widmung, I enjoy spending time with you. <3 Thank you for the wonderful screenshots! It's always a pleasure to look at all of us. Saater seems to be showing his antisocial behaviour, he doesn't want to dance, I'll be sure to talk to him about it!

Rin has done a marvelous job
I can see the sadness and the melancholic atmosphere, but still a warm soul <3
The background also fits so nicely for the whole picture, giving the eerie vibes for it <3

@ Widmung: Thank you so
@ Saater: I'm sooo glad you like it!! <3 And I wouldn't say that you have a lack of imagination at all, I think the design is very creative, and I absolutely love it when people use the TEF deer pelts as a concept for their characters' designs in general! Also, for example your art is always so unique and creative, and the backstory for Saater is so fascinating to me!

It's amazing
I hope to run into Sateer sometime!
Very much agreed!!
Saater, I hope you're doing alright. You are very missed, the Forest isn't the same without you.
Here's also a little gift, I hope you like it. <3
I started drawing Saater
I'll be getting a new phone soon, so maybe then I could take a better picture. It's all blurry.
Also Rin, your drawing is beautiful. You're like a ray of sunshine. Thank you for keeping me company until the servers went down. yesterday

Also thank you so much! <3 I hope the background and everything is fine despite it not being really Saater-esque haha. Also anytime! ;; I saw you left the flower field and just had to follow. I really hope the servers come back online soon, it's not an understatement that it has been quite a bit lonely today, I've gotten so used to having TEF run in the background haha.

we love and miss you, Saater!
Signature by Saater
Saater, it is through you
I was here before, many, *many* years ago, and back then there wasn't this forum as a backchannel to fill out the details of how we were in the forest.
Returning after such a long time, I discovered this part of the community, and the first post I looked at was one of yours. I read the story of your character, and I saw your artwork. And I saw your interactions with your friends here, and I started to look at *their* presence here, and what I saw was remarkable. Friendship, artistic talent, love, creativity.
There is something uniquely lovely about this place.
And whenever I see you, on here or in the forest, I have an extra big smile, because it is through you that I started to realise how lovely it all is. Seeing Saater *always* makes me happy.
I shan't mention your obvious talents, because you'll just be modest to the point of self-deprecation, but that's fine, I'll just say that they are noted and appreciated.
And I'll add my voice to the many others looking forward to seeing you back in the forest. <3

I just want to cry. I've
Ferne, I'm speechless. I have wandered without you exactly as you have drawn. But you bring light to my heart again. You have a very delicate sense, and you know how to convey it.
I have no words to tell you how much I missed you.
Rin, your artwork is full of light, warmth and tenderness. I felt the touch of an angel, it was you.
Oxyinco, you and I are truly one, brother. I felt exactly the kind of longing you painted when I missed you. Our emotions merged into one. The portrait is very sad, but it's gorgeous.
Thank you all, friends. I missed you all so much.
