Homebrew Alseid Species Details

Alseids are a tauroid race native to Arborea and the Material world of Midgard. They have the bodies of deer and the torsos of elves. they are tribal and nomadic, occupying forested areas and living in harmony with nature. All alseids have antlers on their foreheads which branch roughly every 10 years for the first century of their life. Further points only develop with the blessings of the forest. no 14 point imperial alseids are known to exist, but many tribes are governed by princes with 13 points, indicating they've done a great service to the forest on at least 3 different occasions. 

Because antlers signify status, alseids never fight with them. Cutting an alseid's antlers is one of the worst punishments an alseid can suffer. Alseid exiles have been seen with their antlers sawn off close to their scalps.
