Welcome to my little species thing!
I am not a great artist so I may make these a semi-open species, but for now they are a closed species! If you are interested in making some guest adopts for them, please feel free to PM me!
Things not covered in the rarities chart:
Deer body - Any type of fur from short to long to curly acceptable.
Round head - ALWAYS white.
No actual mouths, noses, faces. They are drawn on.
Clarifications:
Hoof color corresponds with fur color - Bright fur colors will have Bright colored hooves, Natural color with natural color.
Markings that are a "natural" shape but an unnatural color are classified as "Shapes".
"Natural" refers to naturally occurring fur colors and markings. These do not have to be specific for deer! You can have any sort of natural fur colors. The colors of the hooves does not need to be a "natural" hoof color on a natural furred Deermie, but they must be a natural color. (As seen by my Masco, who has white hooves)
Eyes can be ANY color! No rules on eye color, but their eye(s) are always simple (ie no eyelashes and just a simple eyelid). They can be anywhere on the head.
Faces can be any color(s)! Scribble is a "pen/pencil" sketch type, typically one color. Marker is bolder and may have multiple colors, and should be not "sketchy". Detailed can have any sort of color and more detail (eyelids, eyebrows, noses, lips, small details like that)

Masco has: One eye (common), Scribble Face (common), Shapes Markings (uncommon), Natural Fur (common)

Lore/General species info
Deermie are a psychic species, able to manipulate things with their minds and communicate telepathically. They are able to project their thoughts into others heads, however they cannot read minds.
They hail from all over the world, and as such have a wide variety of body shapes and fur lengths to reflect this. They will always have a deer shaped body but how stocky or thin it is will depend on their climate.
How their "faces" are drawn on is a mystery! Some claim to do it themselves, some claim their parents do it. It is permanent however and cannot be removed and ALL Deermies have some sort of drawn on face.
They are all physically the same and will choose their own gender pronouns as they see fit.
Reproduction is very secretive and at the moment not much is known about them.
So... what do you think? No World or DA group as of yet since I am not sure if anyone would even like these guys.... or if they are similar to anything atm.... I did search the name and did not find anything but feel free to let me know if I made a goof. I'm not big in the species game so if I did, it is an honest mistake!
