Kindred
Cervine Kindred
The Cervine Kindred contains deer-derived and potentially related antlered Beastfolk architectures, presently represented by the Iverai Lineage.
Cervine Inheritance
Cervine Beastfolk arise from deer-derived and closely related awakening patterns. Environmental vigilance, motion detection, group awareness, and sudden-danger responses may influence inherited sensory priorities, but they do not prescribe gentleness, timidity, woodland spirituality, or any particular society.
The Kindred may eventually prove broad enough to contain elk-, reindeer-, or other related Lineages. Cardorbian taxonomy leaves those questions to actual inherited compatibility rather than deciding them from resemblance alone.
Known Lineages
The Iverai are the best-established Cervine Lineage. Their existence does not imply that every future Cervine awakening must be Iverai.
