Herd Information

Rank: Retired Herdmember (Former General, Former King)
Mate(s): Eik is OPEN for Rut, just note me
Offspring:
Neik , out of Mireya (Born Y763)
Eidalyn, out of NPC (Born Y763)
Arlo , out of Catalina (Born Y766)
Personality:
Eik likes to consider himself a very approachable stag and is generally willing to help out however he can. He can't stand time-wasters or idiots and will quickly grow impatient with petty nonsense. He has the capacity to shut off his emotions when necessary, but since he has a tendency to bottle up negative emotions inside him there is the potential for them to all spill out at the slightest hurt - so he must be careful to regularly find some alone-time to reflect on situations, as it wouldn't do the best for his reputation if he burst into tears whilst training a squadron, would it?
If you're not prepared to work for what you want, Eikthyrni will not respect you. He places great value in skill and experience and won't hesitate to train others if they're willing to learn. He considers stags to be naturally stronger than does, though he acknowledges that there are a few girls who could beat up a large proportion of their comrades. But since they're the minority (coupled with the fact that does have a tendency to go maternal and place fawns before the herd, AND the fact that they're a target for Blackwood Raiders) - does should not attain higher ranks in the military. He supports the notion of 'the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few'.
Very religious, believes that Adhar saved him from the jaws of wolves and brought him to the kingdom of his ancestors. Hates Úir and all her worshippers, believing that she is either an incredibly skilled Blackwood magicer or some sort of evil spirit that seeks to undermine Adhar's authority. He has grown into a very suspicious stag, as he has seen first-hand the dangers of not responding to omens or keeping Silverthorne traditions. eg) in Blackwood he saw some premature fawns survive who caused problems for the herd - attracting/'summoning' wolves and bears. He saw old does having their sixth, seventh or even eighth fawns which were stillborn or born with deformities.
Eikthyrni isn't the most successful at wooing the ladies. Not because he lacks the strength or status to impress/win them, but because he himself has no great love for them. A long time ago, a doe broke his heart and whilst it has healed - it is greatly scarred. Thus, while he will occasionally take one or two does for Rut - he does not love them. The right kind of doe will earn his favour and he will be quite the gentleman to her, but it would take quite a while for him to let a doe get close to his heart once again.
Appearance:
-Eik's rack grew quickly, but went through a bit of a slow period where it didn't change all that much and now undergoes very minor changes. He's very aware of how small his is in comparison to other stags, BUT it's not about the size of the rack, it's what you do with it, right?
-Small scar on his shoulder from an encounter with Kerras
-Several small dot-like scars on his rump, from when Alasdair charged into Eik's butt

Timeline
741
Spring: Born - Mother unable to produce milk for him. Fedor, a friend of Rahndur's, has a mate who lost her fawn. Eikthyrni is given to her and raised as her son, though Tehya continues to be a part of his life as a doting aunt/second mother.
742 - 1 year old
743 - 2 years old
744 - 3 years old
Spring: Heaven Sent Fire to Save Thee - Running for his life suddenly turns into his first encounter with fire, and is his first real sign that he's not a pure Blackwood (though he is too young to realise this for himself)
Spring: Mum, Look What I Can Do! - Shows Tehya and Ieva what he's discovered he can do with fire! They're not too keen on the idea, but don't give away any secrets... yet.
745 - 4 years old
Summer: The Light in the Darkness -Emotional rollercoaster, doesn't trust anything any of his four 'parents' say. Spends some time with Annilia, his grandmother who tells him of Silverthorne. Ultimately this causes him to journey to Silverthorne.
Autumn: Through The Flaming Gates -On the border, he meets his grandfather who hesitantly allows him to join the herd after confirming Eikthyrni's identity. Their relationship isn't too flash though, because of Brechin's past dealings with Blackwood.
Winter: Things That Go 'Bump' In The Night - Adjusting to the new territory he lives in and missing his family/friends
Winter: What it's like - LONELINESS AND ANGST
Note: Any fawnlings born after this won't be 100% sure that he came from Blackwood as they weren't alive when he made the transition. Any reference to his Blackwood past is purely rumours which would've decreased in intensity as time went on - there would be little to no mention of it after year 755.
746 - 5 years old
Autumn: Can't Take It Anymore - After enduring almost an entire year of endless torment, Eik finally stands up for himself and fights his bully during Rut (which, according to Silverthorne law, is the only time fighting is allowed - isn't he a good, law-abiding citizen? haha)
Autumn: The Golden Shadow -Gets pestered by a young old fawn, Eurig, eventually warms up to the kid
747 - 6 years old
-Finds it difficult to accept the Silverthorne teachings that Blackwoods are essentially evil - his foster parents were pure Blackwood and were the complete opposite of evil. Eikthyrni can't believe that his fawn friends have grown into monsters.
Spring: Twist the Sinews of thy Heart (Art) - Sparring with Ember, but some friendly banter goes a tad too far
-Eurig's mother is taken by Raiders. Puts tension on their friendship but no longlasting wounds
Autumn: First Time For Everything - Naive young Eik meets a strong doe, who seems to think he's kinda special
748 - 7 years old
Spring: Worthless - All the bullying and pressure gets to Eikthyrni, and he feels like he has nowhere to call 'home'
-Talks to Eliane, his other grandmother who is still in Silverthorne, about how despite the fact that he has been in Silverthorne for 3 years, he still feels unsettled. She tells him that it will take time and points out that Brechin is warming up to him.
Autumn: Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger - Teaches Eurig how to fight
749 - 8 years old
-Encounter with Blackwood Raiders. This is evidence to support what the Silverthornes were saying about Blackwoods. Eikthyrni begins to develop an understanding of why there is tension between the herds.
-Eurig doesn't win any does, Eikthyrni teaches him that the better way of getting a doe is getting to know her so that SHE wins you.
750 - 9 years old
-Encounters his father on the Silverthorne-Blackwood border. Somewhat heated discussion about Blackwood vs Silverthorne, and Silverthorne's superstitions.
-Eurig gets a doe! Introduces her to his 'big brother' Eikthyrni only to discover that the two are old friends!
751 - 10 years old
752 - 11 years old
Spring: Borderlands -Blackwoods tryin' to scout out our territory? I don't think so!
753 - 12 years old
Autumn: Proving His Heritage -Accusing his grandfather of doubting Eikthyrni's loyalty to Silverthorne, and the purity of his bloodlines
754 - 13 years old
-Eurig is killed on the Silverthorne border, Eikthyrni feels guilty for not being there to look after him.
Spring: The News - passes on the tragic news to Ember
Spring: There is no substitute for family - Quiet reflection time
755 - 14 years old
756 - 15 years old
757 - 16 years old
Spring: Lessons in Humility - futile attempts at teaching Ayden how to be humble and think tactically
Spring: It Must Be A Dun Thing (Art) - moar upstarts!
Winter: You Shall Not Pass - defends the Silverthorne border from a troublemaker
Winter: The Speed at which Truth Becomes Fiction - Recovery time and gossip
758 - 17 years old
Became General!
759 - 18 years old
Summer: Syn's Magic Lesson 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 -Supports General Syn in teaching other herdmembers how to wield fire

Summer: Ladies Shouldn't Be Able To... -Eik meets a cute little family, and instructs the son how to fight with tactics - though it turns out to have quite an unexpected outcome
761 - 20 years old
Autumn: Every Bonfire Starts With A Spark -Taking some youngsters on a tour of what life is like as a soldier
