The snawfus is a local legend here in the Ozarks, not much is known about it honestly. A snawfus is a large white deer with dogwood or plum branches in bloom for antlers they also have wings to fly like an owl, wings becauseits known to fly though a lot if lore states its due to primate abilities not wings. At twilight its said to yell "Halley-Loo! Halley-Loo!!" a cry which sounds similar to a songbird. When it breathes, it exhales a cold breath which emits spirals of cool blue fog, which drift away in delicate rings up into the atmosphere, gently coating the hills a blue hue in the autumn & winter mornings. Some claim its magical breath also heals everything it touches, it's breath is called the breath of life. Folklore states that this creature when seen by human eye is an omen of imminent death.
