Ecology

Empyrean Stag is a being of the Upper Planes, present in the world only when summoned, sworn, or sent on cosmic business. It is most often found in forest regions. It is large-sized, which shapes how it hunts, hides, or fights.

Behaviour

Empyrean Stag is principled and deliberate, its actions tied to a cause it believes in. Its alignment varies by individual or is irrelevant — it acts on instinct, drive, or whoever commands it. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember.

Origin

Empyrean Stag is introduced in MCDM's Flee, Mortals! (2023). Celestials originate in the Upper Planes, sworn to one of the cosmic ideals (good, law) that those planes embody. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
