Available Nouns

Usage

Note: Only the verbs differing from the common tier will be included below.

Verb Who First Third
ATTEND You reach over and rub at a regal pristine white hind's pristine white coat along her neck affectionately, smoothing it into place. She cocks her head to one side and looks at you with half-lidded eyes, contentment written all over her face.
CLEAN You gently push down on a regal pristine white hind's forehead and make a small click with your tongue. Eyeing you carefully, a regal pristine white hind slowly leans backwards, lowering herself to the ground in a graceful bow before rising up once more.
DANCE You clap your hands sharply and give a sharp whistle towards a regal pristine white hind. She rears up, pawing at the air once, then twice, her head thrown back in an effort to maintain her balance, before allowing herself to fall back to the ground.
HISS You hiss a warning between your teeth, and a regal pristine white hind tenses, lowering her head slightly and clenching her muscles, preparing to lunge.
PUSH You lean against the side of a regal pristine white hind, coaxing her to move sideways a few steps. The pristine white hind moves slowly in response to your gentle push.
SMOOCH You lean forward and plant a light smooch on a regal pristine white hind's nose.

Ambients

Rare

Rare mounts are the highest tier available for purchase and offer additional verbs unavailable at common or uncommon tiers. Rare deer mounts are locked into their features as the additional verbs are specialized to the design. They are also only available during their initial run, and are discontinued in concurrent runs. For 2021, the rare deer mounts were hart and hind.

Appearance

Hart

Male only
Majestic and regal, the hart stands 60 inches at the shoulder and has a sleek body that is covered in a pristine white coat of downy soft, short hair. Wide, crystalline green eyes dominate his elegant face, which is flanked by pointed, upright ears and crowned by an impressive, golden rack of branching antlers. His powerful frame culminates in golden, cloven hooves and a longish tail that is just a shade creamier in hue than his coat.

Hind

Female only
Majestic and regal, the hind stands 60 inches at the shoulder and has a sleek body that is covered in a pristine white coat of downy soft, short hair. Wide, crystalline blue eyes dominate her elegant face, which is flanked by pointed, upright ears and crowned by an impressive, golden rack of branching antlers. Her powerful frame culminates in golden, cloven hooves and a longish tail that is just a shade creamier in hue than her coat.

PINCH You dart out with your fingers and try to pinch at a regal pristine white hind. Feeling brave, or just stupid?
POSE You pose dramatically in front of a regal pristine white hind.
PULL Curling your fingers around an impressive, golden rack of branching antlers, you gently pull a regal pristine white hind's head down to yours and rest your forehead against her. You stand in silent communion for several moments, just you, the hind, and the sounds of the wild.
