Centaur

Horsemen of Myth

The centaur appear similar to humans but with the lower body of a horse. However, centaur also typically have long, pointed ears. A centaur’s upper half is quite hairy, usually covered all or in part by the same horse hair coat of their hind.

Nomadic Hunters

A proud and nomadic people, centaur harry their foes with ambushes and light skirmishes. Their equine forms allow them to outmaneuver all but the most skilled cavalry. Centaur are known for their skill in archery, animal husbandry and pottery.

Centaur are also known for being warlike. Much of the tension between Thalisate and Vas comes from “rogue” centaur raiders and border skirmishes.

The Roaming Clans

Because they rarely stay in one place for long, there are few permanent centaur settlements. Even Ikene, the official capital of Auldintih is mostly populated with other members of Vas. Centaur typically only stay long enough to trade and resupply. The collective group of tribes is called “The Roam”.
