Artwork
Antlerabra is deceptively small. The creature sheds its waxy antlers every season by rubbing them against trees. A nocturnal creature, Antlerabra is considered “the light of the forest”, as other creatures will follow it through the night. The creature always ends its journey at a fresh watering hole, inadvertently assisting its followers. In the winter Antlerabra use their flaming antlers to clear snow so they may eat the fresh grass below.
