Exploring the horned serpent imagery. This specific one closer to the North American imagery, mentioned by the peoples of the Southeastern Woodlands and Great Lakes. Where the horns are described as more stag. I ended up using the cottonmouth for inspiration (one of my favorite snakes, visually). I like to think this particular horned serpent is more benevolent.
