Hi everyone, I'm looking for some advice and or critique on this stat block I'm developing for Vanifer, the Fire Cult Prophet from the module Princes of the Apocalypse.

I'm using Matt Colville's Action Oriented Monsters design for her, as I hate the basic stat block and want to both draw more on her past as a dancer, and to make the eventual combat more exciting and dynamic.

Having cuddles like

bears: crushed by weight, grumbling when the other moves, under mountains of pillows and blankets, snacking comfortable

birds: being fed as the other sinks down, wrapped in cushions and comfort, fun pyjamas,

cats: bumping heads and shoving up against them, burying against their side belly up, complaining when the other moves, kneading their skin lovingly, stealing warmth

dogs: face to face, almost shoving them off the bed on accident, tangled in blankets, excited about the company, can't seem to get close enough

foxes: clingy but playful, stealing kisses then darting away only to come back, vocal, curling up and back on the move in a heartbeat, restless energy until exhaustion takes over

monkeys: clinging to them, detangling their hair, rolling all over the place, chest to chest hugs, quiet chatter

otters: holding on tight as though scared of drifting away, small affectionate squeezes, fingers interlaced, squeaky giggles

penguins: quickly in between chores just in the middle of the room, standing up, leaning against the other, forehead kisses, shoving hands under the other's shirt to warm them up, gentle swaying

snakes: napping in the sunlight, so wrapped up in each other you can't tell them apart, constant pressure, warming on the other

Turning mythical creatures into gods, makes it hard to turn them into enemies for PCs to fight?

Hey everyone, I'm having a bit of a DM/Worldbuilding Dilemma.

I’m currently developing a campaign setting where instead of having humanoid gods, the gods are represented as mythical creatures. For example, the Griffon is the god of valor, justice, and courage, and the Unicorn is the goddess of healing, water, and purity. 

While I love this in concept because it can deify many mythical creatures, I also realize that by making these creatures gods and devoutly worshiped by their people, I’ll struggle with justifying adventures and combats or campaign plots that deal with harming or hunting said creatures. If the Manticore is worshiped as a god, and you get a quest to hunt a Manticore, is that blasphemy or seen as an affront to the god?

Would players even care about that kind of thing? I feel it could end up limiting my options in terms of encounter design for creatures such as Unicorns, Manticores, Perytons etc. if I turn them into worshipped figures, but would other people believe the same?
