The bonfire elk is an incredibly rare and majestic beast which has become infused with the untamed energies of the Feywild, causing its antlers to become wreathed in flame. Bonfire elk can often be found protecting small herds of more mundane woodland creatures.

Due to the fact that its antlers continue to blaze after the elk dies, some consider the beast to be a formidable trophy. However, most hunters believe that the bonfire elk are symbols of favor from deities of nature and refuse to hunt or harm them.
