Beastkin

The gate-wardens of Tarsonis have a rule for the beastkin, and it is to look twice and say nothing. For there are four peoples that are half of the human shape and half of some other, and none of the four cares to be stared at.

The minotaur has a bull's head and a short temper. The lizardman comes up from the lagoons to trade, and trusts nobody on dry land. The ettercap is part spider and keeps to the jungle, and most folk are content that it should. Only the satyr is welcome everywhere, for he brings his pipes. How any of them came to be is not known. A curse is spoken of, and druids who went too far, and other tales that the beastkin do not find amusing.
