The Kentaros are one of the Courtless races in the realm of Tír na nÓg. Commonly called The Wildfolk, Centaurs, orHorselords, the Kentaros hail from the vast and mysteries Greatwood Forest. The Wildfolk are primarily nomadic and thus, they do not have a settlement to call their capital. The herd is led by the Champion of the Greatwood, who is selected to lead the herd for life through a contest of strength.
The Wildfolk are a primal people, who live in harmony with nature and are rarely seen outside of the Greatwood Forest. They are fierce people, who see themselves as guardians of the Weefolk of Tír na nÓg. The Wildfolk were born of the tempest winds. The Kentaros bear no sigil, but are affiliated with the Courtless peoples of Tír na nÓg.
The Faunus are their cousins. Also of the Courtless races. The Faunus are known for their skill as entertainers and for their intimate relationship with the forests. Although most Faunus reside in the forests of Tír na nÓg, some choose to live in the cities and settlements, the City Faunus are widely known for their skills as musicians and poets. While some are revered most City Faunu are ridiculed for their inability to control their excessive drinking. The Faunus celebrate life daily and give thanks for the abundance of life by gorging themselves on food and drink. This makes them a popular target for the other races.
Forest dwelling Faunus do not fall pray to the same vice as their City kin. Most are seen as shepherds of the forest. They are considered a priestly caste for the Weefolk and those who live within the expanse of the Greatwood. They are sought for their intimate knowledge of the trees with which they share kinship.
Tomorrow, I will go over more of the Weefolk, which encompasses everything from Dryads, to Kelpies, to Pixies, etc, etc.
