The Hollow Stag

Hunting Methods: Use audio tracking to detect its mimicry—its calls have a distinct delay.

UV light reveals its true form, even when hiding in shadows.

Silver-coated arrows cause minor damage but agitate it, making it aggressive.

Fire repels it, but only temporarily.

Lore: The Hollow Stag is said to be the spirit of a betrayed warrior, left to die in the woods and cursed to wander forever. It seeks warmth but can never find it, its body forever cold and empty. Those who hear their own name whispered in the trees are marked by the Hollow Stag—it will find them, and it will not stop until they join it in the void.
