Backstory - Love with the High priestess of the goddess was the greatest honour that Acteon ever grasped.  So greatly was he smitten served her with a loyalty, ignoring for a time all other women.  In all Greece he was considered the greatest of hunters, even greater than the god Orion.  Orion determined to destroy him so he called upon the most beautiful dryad and with an elixir endowed her with the beauty of Helen of Troy.  Orion command Panemorfi to seduce Action to betray the High Priestess.  At first Acteon resisted, but was finally caught.  He even brought Panemorfi (at her bidding) to the high priestess' own bed.  In the midst of their passion, Orion led the priestess to find Acteon as he made love to Panemorfi.  She cast him from the bed and cursed both of them turning Acteon to a Stag, Panemorfi she could not harm.  She called on Artemis to exile Acteon and that he could not remain in human form more than 2 hours on any day.  Acteon woke and found himself in Sanctuary, he feels impelled to fight for the forest and ever to seek love.

Contrary to popular belief, the wings of demons are the same as the wings of angels, although they're often better groomed.

Over the years Acteon has slowly lost his human identity, and now can transform only with great difficulty. In his mind his name had vanished as has the capability of language - he understands human speech perfectly, but he cannot speak.

Indeed he no longer thinks of himself as Acteon, but instead only as "The White Stag"

I am looking for a name change to reflect this massive change in his identity.
