Peryton

A peryton is a stag-like creature with the wings and tail feathers of a large bird. These elusive creatures serve as Rahn's personal servants, appearing before those who are either blessed or despised by the god of beasts.

Physiology
Perytons look like stags with large bird-like wings, tail feathers, and antlers, which tend to be smaller on the females. Their fur and antlers usually match those of a regular stag, but their wings and tail feathers come in a wide variety of colors. Although they are capable of flight, they usually use their wings to assist them in leaping long distances.

Abilities
All perytons are born with an innate magical ability to hide in the shadows. This allows them to go unseen by most creatures, even those who attempt to use magic to locate them. They possess human levels of intelligence and can communicate telepathically, but since most animals are not intelligent enough to understand complex commands, perytons usually use this ability to warn them to run from an unnatural threat.

Behavior
Perytons are unfailingly loyal to Rahn and do everything in their power to protect his children. They usually remain hidden to the world and rarely appear before the sentient races, even in nature communities. If an individual is blessed by Rahn himself, a peryton will appear before him/her and bow its head in respect. However, if someone brings egregious harm to the creatures of the wild, it is said that a peryton will carry them away and transform them into an animal.
