Centaurs are half human, half horse people. They are not very numerous in Felarya but they are concentrated in some places such as the great rocky fields. Several species exist but most of them are giant and have a size comprised betweeen 90 and 130 feet

Felaryan centaurs are fearsome creatures. They are voracious and often attack caravans of travellers. Their speed usually makes any escape impossible : they easily outrun most of vehicles and they can feel the faintest vibrations of the ground, allowing them to locate a prey miles away. Some of them master a powerful shamanic magic but they are rare.

Centaurs have a tremedous strenght in their legs though they lacks in term of agility. The sight of a centaur galloping at full speed is something you never forget.

Contrary to other hybrids creature, centaurs have their stomachs in their animal parts. This means it's huge ! It would take dozen of humans to fill it. Though centaurs hunts every type of creatures small enough to be swallowed. During digestion, a centaur would fall completely asleep, usually a whole day.


Zebra centaurs

This particular race of centaurs is more refined than their primitive counterpart. They sometimes wear some clothes, are generally more agile and proficient with ranged weapons. They are smaller, between 80 and 100 feet.

The main particularity of zebra centaurs is their double personnality. During the day they are pleaseant creatures, rather friendly to humans - though it don't means they won't gobble one from time to time - and they sometimes follow caravans for a while just for the sake of chatting and exchanging news.

However when dusk set, their eyes begins to glows red and a aura of fear surround them. The nonchalant centaur then turn into a fearsome and hungry predator.
