Centaurs

Centaurs in the Dynasty Almost every Centaur is born into the role of a soldier or security force. Centaurs are most prevalent in the city of Menrion. There they are the exclusive town guard and while they reside above in the smaller homes on the surface they work to keep the Kalshtar and Simic Hybrid workers in line and producing the ore and materials needed for the Dynasties war machines. Centaurs are also the Dynasties elite Cavalry and have a distinct dislike of the empires Bugbear Pikemen.     Nature’s Cavalry   Centaurs have the upper bodies, down to the waist, of muscular Humans, displaying all the human variety of skin tones and features. Their ears are slightly pointed, but their faces are wider and squarer than those of elves. Below the waist, they have the bodies of small horses, with a similar range of coloration—from various shades of chestnut or bay to dappled or even zebra-like striped patterns. Most centaurs style their hair and their tails in a similar way. Selesnya centaurs favor long, flowing hair. Gruul centaurs cut their hair in rough, spiky styles.   The upper bodies of centaurs are comparable to human torsos in size, and their lower equine bodies average about 4 feet tall at the withers. Though they are smaller than a human rider mounted on a horse, they fill similar roles as cavalry warriors, messengers, outriders, and scouts.
