The Endless forest from a fawn's point of view. - Day two, the day of The Moon.

Day two, The day of the Moon.
I dreamt of the voice, and the warm pelt. The soft earth beneath my body, not remembering the cold I was returning to.

I awoke again, the now harsh wind belting down upon my neck. In reaction, without thinking about anything, I leaped up onto my hooves. I had stood for the first time. The voice, whom I decided to name "Maa", was gone once again. My stomach rumbled, I needed the warm juice Maa had called "Sap". I remember Maa telling me it came from the trees, and there were many trees around me. One of the trees has a bunch of growths spouting from it, so I leaned in.... And took a bite. It was the same juice! Maa had told me the right way to go, so I must remember Maa, I must.

Lol, deer.




For my first two attempts at drawing deer, I'm kinda proud of these. I didn't even use references for these two!

I did a few sketches while looking at references last night, then for these, I closed everything and listened to relaxing music while sketching/lining, until I was colouring. Then I used a few screenshots of my fawn and Artemis' Samorn to get the markings/colours right on both.

Problems still occuring? Anymore advice?

Ive asked this before, my forest doesn't want to work, when i try and rotate the little sleeping deer at the opening screen, the little guys is like stone, no words, noises, nothing, Ive stared at it for 2 hours now, absolutely nothing happens, when i close it out, a little white box with no title, words, or anything pops up, just a button saying "OK" I have no clue what this means, nor do I know why it inst working, I had cleaned all excess files from my PC, i have a TON of disk space left, I re-installed the game, and still nothing seems to work, my last resort is buying a new PC or hard drive, both cost tens of hundreds of dollars in my area, any advice on how to fix this problem? I admit it, I do miss the forest a lot, Ive been gone for such a long time, I cant even remember where everything is anymore, its really getting annoying. I will send Violet to smother you with cuddles and fluffy-doe-ness if I can get help, Arigatou gozaimasu~!

Hello

I've just signed up, and am really enjoying the game, although I am sort of bumbling around figuring out how things work. I'm just a faun at the moment, and I'm not sure how to grow larger, or change my appearance. But that's all right, it's fun to figure it out. If anyone has any tips, please tell me!

If you see a faun with a sign that is a zigzag and dot, that's me.

The Endless forest from a fawn's point of view. - Day one, the day of The Sun.

Day one, The day of the Sun.
A warm, fuzzy, nothingness. A cozy pelt curled around my own. Yet there was nothingness. Only black as far as my mind knows, for I do not yet know life.

Suddenly the warmth is gone. I begin to see for the first time, gazing, star-struck. I look around. There is no-one else within sight. The air is musky, foggy, yet a harsh breeze bristles past my face. This ground is not the soft dirt i remember, this is a grassy meadow, blooms astray. Perhaps I can find some thing to drink here, but i don't know where to find the warm sweet liquid I am used to, perhaps tree sap? I remember a soft voice, singing, and telling me about the forest. I remember the voice telling me about the many deer and fawn that call this forest their home, and that one day I would meet them. What to do? Why did the warm voice leave me, and where am I? Maybe I should just sleep...

First Day.

Well, here I am. A new member of Endless Forest, finally giving this game a try, as I've been considering it for a few months now. This isn't a first impression blog, per se, as I've barely invested any time so far, and I'm still learning the ropes. I'm hoping I'll enjoy my time here in-game, and in TEF community.
Hi, I'm wintergreen. I've spent more than my fair share of time on the computer involved in numerous MMORPGs, and MMOs, and all the hours searching for the next new game to spend my time in has led me here. I'm a casual gamer, for sure, and I could never "grind" to save my life, and looking for casual games is what brought me here, as I just so happened to see an off-hand comment about this game on a forum post awhile back. I'm a big fan of roleplaying, and I always enjoy hooking up with any existing roleplaying communities in games that I join. Well, I think that Endless Forest offers me a unique opportunity in this, as I don't have to search out a roleplaying community, when the game is centered around roleplaying itself. I like that.
However, I'm still getting the hang of this game, and my knowledge at this point extends no further than reading a bit about forest actions, and magic. I'm hoping to fully explore all the potential opportunities this game holds, and I might add that some of the cosmetics involved in the Forest Magic look spectacular. This game appeals to my rp, and my art nature. I love art, even if I'm rubbish at it, and this game is like a giant, moving canvas. Another great thing.

Well, I've rambled enough, and I'm spending time here that I ought to be spending getting used to this game. I wish fawns grew a lot quicker, because I have a month of not being a stag ahead of me. Oh well! Hopefully it'll pass soon enough, and I can still enjoy what this game holds.

I am sorry.

Haven't been on in awhile... I wonder if my fawn has grown up while I was away???

Just a couple of musings.
Why do people fear death? Do they fear the unknown? Do they feel that death is the end and that their minds are gone forever, like the end of a candle? Why should you fear death, everyone dies. Its what you do while you're alive that counts, and who knows, there may be life after death. I believe in Heaven, Hell and a God and Devil, but I don't believe that people are going to Hell if they don't believe in God. An all knowing, all loving God wouldn't do that to the people he loves.

Another thing.
I am sorry. On behalf of all the Christians out there that aren't doing their jobs, looking like total jerks by shoving their religion down other people's throats, all of the terrible things they have done "In God's Name" to make them sound righteous... That is terrible and I am so sorry.
So many people have been wronged by the church, by christians maybe in their own families. Catholic priests have a reputation for being child molesters, but they're supposed to be their for people, to comfort them and aid them in need. ANY Christian has that duty.
I am sorry for the betrayal of trust. Christians have a duty to aid the struggling, the weak and the poor because that is what they believe God wants them to do.
Churches have turned into clubs, 'if you don't believe our way then go away'.
Priests are self-righteous and will preach at people about being holy, but not doing so themselves.
I am sorry for the things Christians have done in their righteous quests.
