One-Eyed Purple Radiated Deer

Ever since the out break, a lot in the city has changed. Buildings have been destroyed, people have died horrific deaths and animals have been mutated into the most hideous of creatures. What was once a normal deer that pranced around the green and luscious forests now is a giant man-eating deer that radiates danger. It's fur is a vibrant purple that can be seen hundreds of meters away.
Spoted in the remains of forest in Fenfield is this new breed of deer. The animal feeds on whatever it can find, including meat. Turns out when deers eat meat, they grow to be a lot bigger than normal. Plus, now they have sharp teeth to attack whatever foe may be standing in there way. The deer prefers to only be out at night as that's when it's best at hunting. However, it has been spoted during the day looking for prey.
Wait...did that thing's eyes merge together into one eye??

Ecology and Habitats

The mammal prefers to stay out of sight as much as possible and is said to reside in the radiated forests in the area.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Plants, meats and everything in between. Now equipped with meat chewing teeth, this creature is ready to eat.
