Tricorn

Tricorn by Stone Gargoyle

Agressive deerlike creatures, tricorns are carnivorous and will eat small children and fae creatures without a thought. So named because of their three horns, two being antelope type horns going up the head in a "V" formation with the third forming out of a central bone ridge crest, they will attack other animals they see as invading their territory.
