Deer are listed as part of the Antelope entry in the Basic Fantasy RPG Core Rules. Stag are male and doe are female. A stag has a pair of antlers on its head, and stand as tall as cattle, but are much thinner across with almost dainty legs. Deer are hunted for its meat (venison) and leather, which is soft to the touch and durable. Deer have very good hearing and will run away. If cornered a stag will try to attack with its antlers, while a doe will butt with its head to knock over the aggressor and then run away. Deer will not intentionally enter combat.
