Reindeer Random Encounters

This is the result of a somewhat silly guild discussion that turned into an idea maybe worth consideration:

How about reindeer encounters on the barren part of Mistrendur? The creature art already exists, just needs some holiday deco removed, and probably a combat animation. Pinch landscape from the relevant POT biomes, add some resource nodes. Somewhat less than sober minds disagreed as whether said reindeer herds should be red-eyed agressive mobs or peaceful grazers a la the sheep encounter. But they definitely need either an uber-reindeer guardian or a powerful deerherd defender. And maybe the peacefully grazing herd turns into red-eyes monster supports for said guardian when/if the player gets aggressive. And also a recipe for reindeer cutlet, because they taste good. (So there, Jar!)
