The Black Elk was a subspecies of elk found on the Marcher Lands of Hachiman.[1]

Description[]

This was a huge animal. Its antlers were up to fifteen feet long, seemingly made of ebony, and its eyes are said to be jewels of flame.[2]

The antler had magical properties, due perhaps to its strange whorled pattern, like a serpent. In fact, if struck correctly it would turn into a serpent staff.[3]

Their pelts were valuable, though they would defend themselves with their antlers and hooves.[1]

Origins and Distribution[]

At the time of the events described in Sword of the Samurai, this animal had not been seen in seventy years.[2]
