Forest demon


 * "I have seen these creatures but once, and I will never forget that sight. Golden eyes, peering out from the copse of trees, unfeeling... inhuman."
 * - Dr. Carlisle Brown,  An Account of the Creatures of Verosia 

Anatomy and appearance
Not much is known about forest demons, save what Dr. Brown discovered in his lengthy study of the beings of Verosia. Forest demons have pale skin and hair, and completely black eyes. These demons are rather short, with slight frames. The most noticeable thing about them are the antlers that stand high on their heads. By Dr. Brown's account, there is almost no difference between males and females. Both stand at approximately 6 heads high.

If they possess any powers like their demon siblings, they are largely unknown. Dr. Brown did note a strange increase in the number of plants around himself and his party when he attempted to observe the demons.

To date, these, along with the mortem demons, are the only creatures not subjugated by the humans.

History
Next to nothing is known of these mysterious beings. Not even the other two races know of their forest siblings. According to the oldest records of demonkind, the forest demons have always been a part of the world. The old Ankalados texts refer to them as "The Arduia".
