Proudhorned Sernuk

Description

The Proudhorned Sernuk, alternatively known as the teleporting deer (frequently referred to as the "disco deer" in the in-game chat), is a deer-like creature with black eyes, a greyish-white body and black legs. The fur pattern is streaked with thick, light blue lines covering much of its chest, belly, and tail areas as well as parts of its sides and face.

Additionally, it is crowned with a pair of intricate, beautiful brown antlers.

Location

The Proudhorned Sernuk can be found in northern Bahari Bay, often in areas where normal Sernuks and Elder Sernuks roam. Under normal circumstances, only one exists at a time. Once it is felled, a new one will spawn after a short delay.

There is also a small chance for a Proudhorned Sernuk to spawn in a Flow Tree Grove, anywhere around Bahari Bay, including south of the aqueduct. This spawn is handled separately and can coincide with the one in the north.

Behavior

When left alone, Proudhorned Sernuks will be in an idle state, displaying a number of idling behaviors. An idle Proudhorned Sernuk will wander the area close to its spawning location, occasionally stopping to eat grass. (This does not actually affect any foliage around the Sernuk).

When a player enters a Proudhorned Sernuk's attention range or either hits or barely misses it with an arrow, the Proudhorned Sernuk will enter its alarmed or chase state and begin running away from the threat.

Unlike other kinds of Sernuk, the Proudhorned Sernuk has the ability to teleport in short bursts, which allows it to make tremendous ground away from a threat. This behavior can be disabled upon being struck by a Dispel Arrow, which prevents the creature from teleporting.
