MINOTAUR2 MINOTAUR2

Minotaurs have the upper body of a bull, and the form of a man. This means
that minotaurs have snouts and horns atop their head. The curl of the horn
differs from minotaur to minotaur - some curl upwards, while others curl
outwards. Minotaurs are covered with fur from the top of the shoulders and
up, and also from midshin down. They do not have human feet, but hooves.
The amount of hair and fur on the torso will vary depending on where the
minotaur is from, some will be more covered with more fur than others on
their humanoid torso.
 
Society: 
Minotaurs live in groupings called Herds, the largest known being Minoma.
The Leader of the Herd carries the title of Mahn, much like the title of
King or Czar. They are a combative race and very quick to ire. Minotaurs
take much pride in their horns, and in certain circles, their horns are
related to fertility. Promiscuity runs rampant in the men, with each Bull
never pledging himself to a single female. Despite their bovine appearance,
one of the most egregious insults to a Minotaur is "Cow". With their foul
temper, they have been known to strike down anyone making this mistake with
hardly a word spoken. Minotaurs are fond of piercings, wearing the nose
ring as a sign of reaching maturity. Some minotaurs forego this practice,
believing it to be archaic.
 
Relationships with Other Races:
The minotaurs are not very trusting of anyone outside of the Herd. Due to
recent conflicts caused by the Minotaur destruction of the Elven City of
Shasarazade, tensions between the Elves and Minotaurs have escalated into
an all time high. Minotaurs tend to get along with Giants and Ogres quite
well due to their common propensity for combat. They also have moderately
good relations with werebeasts and ferals. The Minotaurs feel these races
to be kindred spirits due to the animal-like humanoid appearances.
 
Minotaurs can become:
Warriors and Berserkers
