Well it can't be as simple as reindeer. Could possibly be something like moose. A7 = antlers? I got nothing for the other letters.
I don't think it's gonna be anything Christmas related, but I guess it's possible.

V5 is Vixen obv, but knowing that doesn’t help us any more than Prancer
Was thinking maybe roof, but housetop doesn’t have to be hyphenated (which would’ve been H9)
Trying to think what this obscure P4 could be
A7 into V7 “might also work”

Yeah, Prancer “gets us on the right track,” but I’m not convinced that track is Christmas. Seems more like a big animal clue.

Sounds like no one but Nich has any idea about this H9, so that’s encouraging

A7 antlers
V7 venison
But it can’t be as straightforward as deer, because Prancer would’ve been regarded as slam dunk.

Yeah, everything kinda points towards deer but it can't be that. Maybe it is just moose? Or elk?

I wish I could come up with a credible H9 for moose. Maybe the P4 is some kind of elk type or something. Puma and pika are the only animals I can think of that are P4, but those have nothing to do with deer/reindeer obv.
But yeah, moose or elk would be fine with me if nothing comes to us in the next little bit.

I'm not too concerned about the p4 because it seems like we prolly haven't heard of it anyway. Coming up with a good h9 would be nice tho.
I think I'm at moose>elk just because it seems like a more likely word to be on the list.

I’m largely spent. I say we go with moose and then figure it out with H

Moose could be closer than 0%....maybe like...1 or 2% lol but still quite far

harnessed to the right of Prancer

So, Prancer harnessed. Maybe it is closer to Christmas. Sleigh? I don’t know what Ervin’s S5/7 are, but S4 could be sled?

S5 could be Santa. I don't know what else we can do but guess sleigh, although I don't know what these other clues would be.

H7 harness
H9 harnessed
nfi on the A/V words, I guess antlers still works, but no idea on V7
S5 Santa makes sense
S4 sled
S7 nfi
I guess Nich thought the -ed would help communicate it’s about the thing Prancer is connected to rather than components of the harness. So, sleigh makes the most sense for me at this point.

I do find it odd that it took so long for them to think of Santa's reindeer if this really is sleigh. I would think it'd pretty much be the first thing you'd think of. And there are a whole bunch of clues mentioned that we are clueless on.
