Dark Legacy :: manual races Minotaur
Minotaur
Passionate and fierce half man half bull.
No one knows exactly how these strange creatures came into being. Some suggest
that it was perhaps the curse of a god, the spell of a powerful mage or perhaps
even the inadvertent result of a farmer and his favorite cow. What is known
however, is that minotaurs are one of the fiercest humanoid creatures in Alora.
Although not numerous as a species, they make their presence felt where ever
they live. Standing at around 10 feet tall with their huge muscles bulging and
their sharp horns gleaming, they are truly an awesome sight to behold. There
are few minotaur settlements in Alora, but they are typically found on the
plains. Society in these settlements is controlled by a martial code of law,
often ruled by the clan leader and his hunters. Minotaurs usually remain aloof
from the world in general, considering many races to be weak and despising most
magic users as a rule. As a true warrior race, most minotaurs excel as fighters
and rangers, gaining an edge through their animal instincts.
