White Stags are a species of stag found rarely in Gielinor. In fact, they do not appear in-game, and are mentioned only once in a historical document; the Tale of Arrav.

According to legend, when Arrav was nearing manhood, he and the other boys of Avarrocka were sent into the woods to capture a creature. Arrav killed a White Stag with red eyes, which the elders took as a good omen.

Note: This is almost certainly a reference to the Dragonlance Series and the adventures of Huma where he is guided by a white stag. The White Stag is also said to grant wishes to those who catch it in C.S. Lewis' The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
