Kamoshika (TCG)

Kamoshika was the Rokugani term for serow, medium-sized goat-like creatures. Roaming forests and meadows in small herds, the “forest-deer” was a bovid grazer approximately the size of a large goat. Appearing as a shaggy cross between a goat and a deer, the serow had a long face, thick soft fur, backward-facing horns, and cloven hooves. As herd animals, they tended to flee when threatened. Serow were able to scale mountain cliffs with surprising ease. They exclusively ate plant matter and possessed excellent hearing and sight. Their seemingly supernatural senses, combined with their natural wall-scaling agility, earned them reverence from shinobi groups, and they sometimes appeared on the emblems of secretive shinobi dōjō.

== Emperor Serow ==
Serow herds rarely exceeded six individuals, and, more often, they roamed in mated pairs. Sometimes a wily serow reached the age of twenty-five and sprouted a pair of branched antlers and a shaggy mane from their collarbone, the so-called emperor serow. It was a strong animal that attracted other serow into larger herds with its mournful keen. Path of Waves, p. 240
