Appearance:
Icrapherns greatly resemble the modern day deer, but they're also very different. They're very small, delicate creatures, only growing to about two feet tall at their torso (or three feet if you count their extremely long neck and antler), and being around three to four feel long in length. With four very slender, fragile legs, Icrapherns are often shaky when standing and prefer to be sat down. Therefore, they're not very active creatures except when they have to be, running almost like they're on stilts. Icrapherns have a single white antler in the middle of their head. Their head is fairly small and elegantly pointed, with usually beautiful, dark eyes that range in colors of brown and green. An Icraphern's neck is exceptionally long and tall. The Icraphern's ears are delicate and leaf-shaped, pointed backwards. However, the biggest differential of an Icraphern from a deer is their pelt. Icrapherns have a base pelt of white, but their fur gets longer and changes color- the tips and long strands are a pale green color. The fur on their skinny legs is also very long and a grayish color. The Icraphern's tail is long, white, and short furred, often curling at the tip.
Temperament:
There's no hazard to them. Icrapherns are peaceful creatures, who won't fight or become aggressive. They lean heavily towards fleeing when there's danger, and have no offensive attributes.
Other Information:
The Icraphern are a herbivore species, they don't eat meat. They've been said to lay in soft, hidden spots and poke their head up with their long necks through the foliage to observe their surroundings. Icraphern meat is a delicacy, but they're more prized for their incredibly soft pelts. Their shaky, weak bodies make them easy prey, and if it weren't for the Icraphern's keen senses, ability to fit into small hiding spaces, and tendency to breed like that of rabbits, they might be a more rare species because of poaching.
