Just as reclusive and nomadic as their cousins, antelotaurs are more passive and, in general, tend to use their nomadic skills to run when things get rough. Diminutive Nomads. Antelotaur tribes live in dry savannas with searing weather, and thus have thinner coats than centaurs. Their hunter-gatherer lifestyle is geared more towards gathering than hunting as they aren't the largest or most ferocious thing on the plains. In fact, antelotaurs are preyed upon by many grassland predators, from wolves and giant weasels to big cats and hyenas. Antelotaurs are not particularly violent and any animals they kill to eat tend to be small, such as rodents, rabbits, and lizards. Reluctant Fighters. Antelotaurs are generally nonviolent and tend to be more open to trade, though they have little to give. When violence should break out, their first instinct is normally to run for the hills and hope to get away. If they have to, they will leave members of the tribe behind. Those that can stand the loss may join up with communities, but they are known to be forced laborers in some societies as they're not powerful or violent. However, when they fight they fight together. They attack their assailants on mass, poking, prodding, and ramming from all sides and directions. When pressed enough, they will fight to the very end.
