The Centaur was a large creature that lived in temperate forests. They could live solitary lives or live in small tribes. A Centaur had the upper body of a Humanoid, and the lower body of a large Horse. They stood around 7ft tall and weighed approximately 2,100lbs.

Additional Information

Social Structure

Centaurs were a strong and proud race. Although they typically strove to find peace and balance with nature, they could act with violence when the need arose. Despite this desire for balance, centaurs had to eat a lot to fuel their large bodies and were known to overindulge, especially with wine and ale. A drunken Centaur was much more prone to aggressive and violent behavior.
Although some were solitary, Centaurs generally lived in tribal hunter-gatherer societies. Those that felt a sense of wanderlust to explore the world made excellent companions, and occasionally would offer a ride to allies. The suggestion that they be used as a pack animal however was met with derision.

Civilization and Culture

Interspecies Relations and Assumptions

They had good relations with Elves, being as they were both creatures of the forest. They generally despised Humans and Dwarves but weren't actively hostile toward them and tolerated Gnomes and Halflings. It was said that Centaurs had a superstitious fear of Dragons and Giants.
