Raindeer

The Raindeer was created by The Fluffy Folio (https://www.patreon.com/the_fluffy_folio) and obtained from Pinterest. The creature was originally created to be compatible with D&D 5e, but was converted to Daggerheart for this world.

Raindeer

Tier 1 Standard

A magical creature that resembles a deer made out of water.

Motives & Tactics: Run, hide, self-defense


Difficulty: 11 | Thresholds: 9/14 | HP: 7 | Stress: 3

ATK: +2 | Impale (male Raindeer) / Rear Kick (female Raindeer): Very Close, 2d6+2 mag

Experiences: Spot danger +2


Features

Drenching Embrace: If a creature starts its turn within Very Close range of the raindeer, spend a Fear and violently shake its body, drenching the creature in its water. The newly drenched creature must succeed on an Agility reaction roll or take 1d8+4 physical damage (acid) and become temporarily vulnerable.

Fluid Movement: Mark a Stress if it is currently raining to allow the raindeer to hover up to close range above the ground, and automatically succeed on Agility reaction rolls. In addition, the Raindeer hide during its spotlight.

Sleet - Passive: If the raindeer is damaged by cold-based magic damage, it becomes temporarily partially frozen. While partially frozen, the raindeer's thresholds are increased by +3.

Water Form: Mark a Stress and the Raindeer can activate this ability. In this form, the Raindeer can occupy the same space as another creature, and it can move through a space as narrow as 1 inch wide.

Basic Information

Anatomy

The raindeer is made out of rain. As the water from Lake Virellia evaporates, then condensates on the roof of the Abyss zone of Plover Caves, and then falls back down in the form of rain, the magic of the lure has caused some of the rain to form into living raindeer.

Ecology and Habitats

The tropical shores of Lake Virellia deep in Plover Caves. Raindeer could easily survive outside of the caves assuming the humidity and temperature were within an appropriately tropical range, however there is nothing currently known about their breeding and reproductive cycle. No one knows if they reproduce on their own or if they are only created by the random whims of the Lure's magic.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Raindeer feed off of the cave moss and lichen near the shores of Lake Virellia.

Behaviour

Reclusive, the raindeer often runs away if anything even resembling a predatory creature were to approach it. However, it will fight in self-defense if cornered.

Additional Information

Geographic Origin and Distribution

The only place on Kovere that the raindeer can be found currently is near the shores of Lake Virellia deep in Plover Caves.
