(Alright then it looks like first watch will be Krog, with a perception of 11. Then Brocke & Red, one of you please make a perception check with advantage and the other give me a 1d6. Finally, we have Alistair & Zeke. If you could do the same as Brocke and Red but make the dice roll 1d100 instead please!)
Alone in the darkness, Krog might have become lost in his thoughts... or maybe the creature was incredibly quiet...
Or maybe he was dreaming.
When he first becomes aware of the stag, it's watching him silently from the far side of the campfire. It's inquisitive blue eyes seeming to glow softly.
Its massive, nearly as tall as a horse, with antlers that span as far as Krog's outstretched arms. It's fur looks soft and white as freshly fallen flurries of snow.
The stag waits patiently as Krog wakes his companions, it's intelligent eyes taking in each of them in turn. It tenses slightly at the sight of Alistair but otherwise remains placid throughout the process.
Alistair is startled awake by Krog's prodding whisper of company. A cold dread washes over him, a prickling unease that goes beyond the mere surprise of a visitor. He glances across the dying firelight and sees the source – a magnificent stag, its coat the color of freshly fallen snow shimmering in the moonlight, its antlers like a king's crown. Its intelligent blue eyes, glowing with an otherworldly luminescence, send a shiver down his spine. Is it a trick of the firelight, or something more? This creature... is it useful? Perhaps it can be used to further my goals. A dark thought, one that leaves a bitter smoldering taste in his mouth. Fierna's influence? He quickly schools his features, shoving the unsettling thoughts aside. No time for introspection now.
Quietly joining his companions, Alistair observes the stag. It's massive, dwarfing even Krog, as its gaze sweeps over each of them with an unsettling intensity. He notices the tension crackling between him and the creature, a tension that seems to amplify when they lock eyes, the stag's intense stare seemingly piercing right through him. The air crackles with a subtle energy he can't quite place, mirroring the unease churning in his gut. Alistair raises an eyebrow inquisitively, whispering to Krog, "Do you know this creature? Do you recognize it?"
Krog has certainly never heard of a natural creature like this before, though the size and coloration might fit a creature from the frozen lands in the far north... maybe something that strayed south through the mountains?
But another idea comes to him as well. Celestial beasts and spirit animals are not uncommon in myths, legends, and epic tales. Perhaps the glowing eyes and seeming intelligence hints that the creature may be something more than mortal?

Zeke rolled an 8.
Ouch!
( I did the perception check and was 13)
Was this the d100 or perception check with advantage? We are being asked to provide 2 roll results?
I checked in the game log. That was the d100 roll.
Does that mean Alistair owes a perception check with advantage?
Perception 19
Brockes grabs his axe and positions himself by a rock to stand watch.
16
OOC: Forgot advantage. Sorry.
Perception: 8
Okay. Just waiting on a D6 roll from Cosmos and I can run us through the evening's events.

(Krog, what do you do?)
Krog will begin to try and wake his comrades as quietly as possible by prodding and whispering, “Wake up, we have company.”
Krog will then gesture toward the stag in an unthreatening manner. He keeps his sword sheathed.
Animal Handling 14 (rolled on Game Log)
The stag waits patiently as Krog wakes his companions, it's intelligent eyes taking in each of them in turn. It tenses slightly at the sight of Alistair but otherwise remains placid throughout the process.
Seeing the stag's reaction, Krog will bow respectfully and ask, "Peace to you. Who are you great creature?"
The stag leans forward on one foreleg and lowers it's head in a bow of its own.
Red become awake a soon as he heard his companion voice.
" Krog do we fight? " Said Red in a whisper while holding his bow at the side.
Krog will look at Red and whisper, ”Lower your weapon. I don’t think it means us harm.” Again Krog will respectfully bow again.
" I will fallow your lead" Red place his bow on the ground in front of him an bow in direction of the stag.
