A stag larger than all the others in Skyrim and that had much lighter fur, the stag was said to be a right of passage for those wanting to commune with the "Lord of the Hunt"- Hircine- but will only do so by those who are skilled enough to slay the "beast".
After being cursed by Hircine for stealing his ring, the werewolf Sinding went in search of the Stag in order that he could return the ring and seek the Daedra's forgiveness. He had located it in the forest outside the town of Falkreath- near a pool- but before he could kill the creature, the curse caused him to transform; which led to the death of the Caerilla's daughter, his arrest and his incarceration in Falkreath hold jail. The White Stag was free to continue roaming the land around the hold.
The Dragonborn offers to kill the creature and accepts the ring from Sinding, so they can return it to the Daedra and remove the curse from the artifact.

Upon learning the location of the stag from Sinding, the Dragonborn seeks the stag and after giving it chase across the hold finally manages to run it down and deliver the final blow.
Just seconds later the aspect of Hircine appears, taking the form of the dead Stag and communes with the Dragonborn.
