Blue Deer

The Blue Deer or Loss is a creature native to the planet Troy in the Lanfeust Universe.

Biology
Blue Deer, also known as Loss, are quadrupeds with both blue fur and hide. They are quite widespread in the plains. They are peaceful herbivores with docile facial structures. Gentle, affectionate, and often somewhat oblivious to nearby threats, they owe their survival to the foul taste of thier flesh, which even trolls are reluctant to taste. Trolls are only reduced to eating this animal in cases of particularly violent hunger and desperation. Still, they do not consume the entire body in these situations. Loss love to eat the fragrant berries of the cruflier, and it is in areas where this shrub thrives that the species congregates most often. The berries of the cruflier give the animal both its signature hue and atrocious taste. The Loss has beautiful, silky fur with moire reflections that seem to capture and reflect light in an almost iridescent manner. The leather of the Loss, when tanned, is of deplorable quality, as it loses all color along with any solidity, tearing easily and providing little protection from the elements.
