MINOTAUR-GENERAL

Keywords: MINOTAUR-GENERAL, MINOTAURS-GENERAL
Like Vampires, Minotaurs are not usually considered a natural race. Their conception is most often magical, whether by curse or divine boon, altering the natural form of the target into this part-man, part-bull creature called the Minotaur the actual characteristics melded into a Minotaur varies from creature to creature, with the most traditional known form being a humanoid body bearing a bull���s head. This "race" is so named for the Tirradyn legend of the labyrinth of Queen Minos, who trapped a Minotaur within the labyrinth and annually fed the creature seven youths and seven maidens. This sacrifice is no doubt what has given Minotaurs their reputation for being brutal, savage and uncivilized, but while it is true that most of these creatures are harsh and ruthless, most know and speak the common tongue of humans, and many are respectable philosophers in their own right. Most believe that the strong should rule the weak, and few are known for being gentle or kind.
