Description

A humanoid species, centaurs inhabit open or sparsely forested areas in herds ranging from a handful of individuals to around a dozen. They appear simple if not downright primitive using only crude stone tools and simplistic leather clothing but are well versed in many other skills, such as druidism and even plant husbandry, in fact many now believe it was centaurs who humans learned their knowledge and tool use from rather than from our own development. They are however openly hostile toward humans on sight, some tribes have even been known to hunt and prey on them, as such very little is known of the inner workings of the herds and what is known has only been gleaned from captured individuals and even then only a few vague fragments and descriptions were recorded. The addition of an extra pair of limbs seems to have developed from a mutation much the same way how hammerhead sharks and gryphons came to be, the addition of an extra pair of limbs seems to have been a common trait among a few species being developed during the Cretaceous and Eocene, from the DNA evidence gathered it seems the centaurs are the only species of their line left in existence and are direct descendants of the tritylodontids a group thought to have gone extinct at the end of the Cretaceous.
