Seerling

Seerling are a ruminant mammal from the Cervidae family found exclusively in the Thearshire Rainforest.

The Seerling’s coat ranges from a green to white. The underside of its tail is white, and is be raised when it is alarmed to flag the other deer. Seerling antlers grant them with basic magical abilities, such as walking on water. Healthy Seerling will have eight-point branching antlers as yearlings. The number of points, the length, or thickness of the antlers is a general indication of age. Typical antlers are symmetrical and the points grow straight up off the main beam, and commonly sprout leaves and flowers in the summer.

Seerling eat large varieties of food, commonly foraging on plants, including shoots, leaves and grasses. They also eat acorns, fruit and corn, and foods they can find in a farm yard, such as hay. The first Fae city, Celafarx, was built in the First Age, and the Fae that lived there began trading Seerling for crystals with the Doppelgänger's beyond the Draggle forest. But, it wasn't until the Second Age that the Fae were able to domesticate the Seerling, for their own use as a means of travel, to make for better trading with the Doppelgänger's, and for military purposes.

It is known that Seerling have a special connection to the Thearshire Rainforest, as they can harness the powers of the Rainforest through their antlers and use them anywhere on Lume. However, it remains unknown why or how they have this special connection. Certain Fae were researching the Seerling to try to access their powers and connection to the Rainforest, however before they could complete their work, The Great Thearshire Fire Storm occurred, and ravished the Thearshire Rainforest; which also caused the entirety of Lume's population of Seerling to suddenly die.
