Description
"It set fire to the plains with a single cry, careful going out past the controlled burn; those beasts are out on the hunt this time of the day."
Yfnil are large chimeras that are a combination of a fox, a bird of prey, and deer. Their flanks are that of a deer, the front claws are a mix of a fox, and a raptor, and the remainder of the body is covered in a ruby to auburn feathery fur-like pelt. Its face is protected by overgrown bone plates, and the rest of its head is fox like with two small velvety antlers growing backwards from the top of the skull. The body has a variety of patterns, and the wings are unique to each Yfnil in color and décor.
Yfnil are often solitary hunters, however will group together to take down much larger prey, and do raise their young to almost full maturity.
Movement Speed: 40 (80 flying)
Lair and Lair Actions
Either tucked away on the side of a mountain, or in a burrow. Yfnil lairs are decorated with charred remains of prey, and anything that isn't flammable left over. Desert lairs are often tucked into burrows, or nearby water sources, and lairs sometimes have a natural spring within in. Plains/Grassland burrows are simply small caves dug straight into the ground with elongated tunnels to prevent predators from being to aggressive. Mountain lairs are often open to the world atop very high places, however are still partly dug out into the mountainside. Special lairs are places where Yfnil gather for a mating, or as temporary residency while a young Yfnil works on properly making a lair. These special lairs can be found within abandoned dragon nests, ruined castles, oasis's, cave systems, and other secluded spaces where they can fit.
Lairs do not have inherent bonuses other than favored terrain.
