Thornback Stag
A massive stag with thorn-covered antlers that inflict poison.
This stag's antlers have grown intertwined with thorny vines, dripping with a natural toxin. The vines seem to pulse with faint green light, a sign of deep forest magic. Its hide bears scars from countless territorial battles with other creatures of the enchanted wood.
