Minotaurs

The minotaurs of Korinthia are strong in body, dedication and courage. They are at home on the battlefield, willing to fight just for the glories death. They combine a burning fury in battle with keen tactics that make them excellent commanders, admirals and shock troops.

Horns and Hooves
Minotaurs are barrel-chested humanoids with heads resembling those of bulls. Their horns range in size from about 1ft long to great, curling weapons three times that length. They often ornament their horns with metal rings or sheath them in metal to protect them from damage.

Manes of shaggy fur extends down their necks and powerful backs, and males have long tufts of hair on their chins and cheeks. Their legs end in heavy, cloven hooves.

Strength and Zeal
Minotaurs are zealous and love battle. Hailing from all over the Korinthian Islands, they mastered the craft of shipbuilding and sailing. They raid and reave along the small villages and coastal towns that leave themselves vulnerable.

Minotaurs are not raging fools like one would compare them to Grogan, but they are tactical and practical with their battle fervour. They hold their rage for when battle is on the rise. They are passionate, loving their friends and partners fiercely and they laugh loud and long at good jokes.

The Myths and Legends
Many belive the minotaurs to be vile creations of Baphomet, the Horned King. While the resemblance and traits are uncanny. The minotaurs have broken their chains that bound them to this demon prince. Every minotaur new born child is subject to a ritual known as the Reckoning that breaks the link between the child and demon prince.

Minotaur villages are intricate forms of architecture. Labyrinths of thin and large halls built from marble and stone. Its foolish to enter one of their settlements uninvited. With a Horned Lord leading the village, deciding where to raid and what is best for their people this season.
