Old Gods of Appalachia: The Thing Whose Name Sounds Like Horned Head, But Is Not for Savage Worlds

"Its coat was black as soot. Its hooves were wet with a viscous smearing brown. Its eyes burned with a foul blood-colored light. But the things she could not look away from were its antlers. They were amber. Translucent and honey-colored, pulsing with a low poisonous smolder, bits of ash falling from them here and there."
