Category:Cervines

Cervines are a race of secluded, forest-dwelling humanoid creatures with deer-like features. These can range from small, round, tufted ears with antlers that vary in size (typically, they grow in larger and more complex patterns on males than on females), to tufted tails no longer than two feet, with varying colours and textures. Their skin types are typically darker tones with pale flecks or ‘spots’ dotted across their frames.

Cervines are characterised by their stumpy antlers, their bright eyes, and often coveted pelts sought after by gregarious hunters. To outsiders, they are a rare sight (most cover their antlers in populated areas), and often an ominous one. Hunters steer clear of Cervine settlements, and wanderers are urged not to tread near them. Weird, since they seem so cute.

They are the figures just out of reach in a forest. The silhouettes obscured by leaves and branches - gone before they can be properly discerned.
