I made a Tauren but first need to know a lot more about them before RPing.. This questions are about the Totem Animals. I thought the most fitting totem for my Character was the bear.
((In his habit of hibernation, Bear is closely associated with sleep and is the keeper of dreamtime. Many seers and dream interpreters pay homage to Bear. The Tauren that likes to sleep may be touched heavily by Bear. But in this contact with his dream-self, Bear is also very introspective.
Though lazy and plodding at first glance, bear is a deep thinker. Bear does not make hasty judgments but rather weighs all sides of an issue before reaching a decision. For this reason, many inventors and scholars are influenced by Bear.
Bear also has a great love for home. Those who live under his influence enjoy good food, comfort, and the opportunity to relax. Yet, when in the wild and denied such comforts, Bear adapts well, finding the basic necessities easily.
Finally, Bear can be a fierce warrior, especially when protecting his home and children. Though often slow moving, Bear and those living under his influence can strike with deadly speed and unmatched power when provoked.
Negative Spirit:
Bear's slow pace can sometimes give way to procrastination and laziness if not motivated. However, the most dangerous Bear individuals are those who develop a taste for Bear's wrath when angered. Often, war hungry Tauren are those who have become too comfortable with the power of Bear's anger and enjoy the fear it can elicit in others.))
I have a few questions..
1. What does it mean for the Tauren, besides that it is like his personality?
2. How would one start to see that animal? Would he honor it ETC?
3. How would those animals interact with him?
4. Would he make a nickname for himself that has something to do with that animal?
5. Is there any other information that is important about the Animal totem?
