To travel far and wide with my friends. I will be showing how far we have all traveled. You may see me with one or even all of them!

Sir Reginald Truffle the First

Reginald Truffle's Story

Reginald Truffle was born in the North Pole with asperations of pulling a sleigh much like any other reindeer idolizing Rudolf. He was a runt, but came from one of the most well known families so he still had a chance. Reginald worked quite hard towards his goal, but would fall just under what he needed to be capable of to make the team. Still, he didn't quit and was charged with the task of pulling the mail sleigh with an elf called Peppermint. This job brought him much joy and a new friendship so while baffled with his choices, his parents cheered from the sidelines anyway. Everything seemed perfect with opportunity around every corner for so long, but one day a careful balance was disturbed. The man in the red suit had decided he no longer wanted to work in balance with Krampus during the winter season. Thus, their alliance was broken and the North Pole declared war. Most important figures including Reginald Truffle's parents went into hiding for the danger to come. What was dubbed the Great War of Wishes soon began with bats and reindeer militias with elf pilots forced to fight secretly from the rest of the world. Reginald Truffle quickly joined the fight alongside Peppermint using their sleigh to not only deliver mail, but supplies to wounded and fighting on both sides of the conflict. No one knew that they assisted both sides, but only wanted to bring care and peace to all as they had been taught. The war seemed to carry on for ages until North Pole eventually overpowered Krampus's forces and he was wrongfully banished and unable to perform his job any longer. Peppermint and Reginald became reguarded as war heroes for their bravery, but did not feel they deserved the title as they opposed the fight and only assisted those in need never raising a hand or hoof toward anyone. Reginald still wore their tags as an ode to a life altering experience and strong bond. They then returned to their humble job of delivering mail as if nothing had changed even though they were now tinged with sorrow. Feeling alone, Mr.Truffle met with his parents and explained it all years later. Somehow, the news escaped and they became seen as criminals for assisting the other side. His parents fought for them both to be seen as the peacemakers that they were, but even their influence wasn't enough. Peppermint and Reginald Truffle reluctantly left to maybe help somewhere else in the world and avoid being shunned any longer. They brought peace wherever they traveled helping in even the smallest of ways until eventually settling in upstate NY. Occasionally, they still do as the once did, but they are tired now and deserve to rest. Does this sound like an awful fanfiction? Probably. Still, believe it or not, this is their story.

Reginald Truffle's Truth

Reginald Truffle is actually a dog toy that was so cute I fell for it and had to bring him home around the holidays in 2016. Shortly thereafter, we were inseperable and he brought me a lot of joy and comfort. I couldn't think of a good name and asked the internet for some help. I only recieved two replies and thus he became Sir Reginald Truffle the first. I work as an elf so it was only fitting for my new friend to be a wonderful little deer to follow me around. I figured that it seemed odd though so I made him into a trackable to be discovered and go on as many adventures as possible. He likes to travel in my geobag to all kinds of caches and events now and no type of weather can stop him. Reginald is both a comfort item and a stim for me. He squeaks and I feel comforted when I'm with him. For some this is odd, but for me it works and I love to share that stimming and comfort items can really help and aren't all that strange. Everyone has had a favorite plush or bracelet and some still are comforted by them. The only difference is this is a different type of item.

-Disclaimer-

This TB will only be shared at events in which I have the choice to share only to those who ask and/or provide tracking numbers on a list. If I can put a list on a discover table, the info will be there and I will also show the actual bug to anyone who would also like to see it (I understand just seeing a sheet of paper is no fun). If a list cannot be provided, I am still willing to show it to people who ask. I have had too many close calls where my discover only TBs were almost taken which causes me to not want them to leave my sight anymore. My discovery only ones normally have some sort of sentimental value and do have a twin in the wild meant to share and travel so I hope you can understand my concerns. This one in particular is special because it is a very special deer. This one does not have a twin in the wild meant to travel as well.
