Kill Every Monster – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Perytons are described in the Monster Manual as "bizarre creatures that blend the body and wings of a bird of prey with the head of a stag. Its strangest feature is its shadow, which appears humanoid rather than reflecting the creature’s physical form."
