Fawns
Lit by the flickering fire, home adorned by the carved stained wood, furniture decorating the little cottage like home, there sits a chair with leather cushioned armrests holding up the elbow of a goat faced creature who leans his head into his fist as he is completely immersed in a book resting in his lap. Adorned in cloth and leather clothing, the Fawn glances up as you knock on his door. Opening the door to you with a soft smile and a step back inviting you in, the Fawn welcomes you and offers tea, excited to meet a new visitor and exchange tales and thoughts over a warm cup of tea by the fire. As you enter, you notice that despite living alone, there is a spare armchair near the fire with a table always set for a few extra.
Goat-like creatures which stand upright with human-like torsos hands in place of forward hooves. Fawns usually keep to themselves living in well decorated and cleaned out hollows and caves with doors built on and remodeled to feel like a small cottage. Fawn are heavily nature and animal attuned. Most speak broken common and a few might read and write, they are hermits and happily so; sticking to their books, stories, gardens, and nature. Despite their lonely nature, the Fawn adore having visitors and will often entertain guests for days on end. They are gentle and consider all life sacred. Their choice to remain in isolation can in fact be seen as a statement to their desire to remain away from the troubles of dispute, war, and overcrowded mentalities. Despite not having tribal culture and not often traveling, the Fawn are often considered by most as Nomads due to common misconceptions and lack of common knowledge about them.
Many Fawn are expert herbalists, specializing in making teas. They also have a delightful liking for pastries and baked goods. Fawn spend so much time reading that they have a great deal of lore and folk knowledge, this inspires many of them to take on crafting hobbies.
