But Eboshi proves that the Night-Walker is vulnerable by shooting off his head while Forest Spirit has no visible damage when it was shot at the neck. The emperor Mikado believes it is possible to become immortal by eating his head. The Night-Walker is searching for its head. This causes the life of everything it touches to be drained away, causing mass destruction and death this lasts until Ashitaka and San return its head, restoring peace. During Lady Eboshi's hunt to kill the Deer God, she shoots it as it transforms, turning it into the humanoid-like Night-Walker, releasing its destructive body. Later, it euthanizes Okkoto and Moro by taking their life. It heals Ashitaka of his bullet wound, yet interestingly leaves the boar's curse untouched. The Deer God "Forest Spirit" is the protector of the Cedar Forest and is the god of life and death. It can transform into a gigantic, translucent humanoid during the night called the Night-Walker. The Forest Spirit looks like deer, but with plant-like antlers and a human-like face.
