Fawn (3.5e Race)

Fawn

Personality

Fawn are a shy race, they live in packs in the woods and for the most part are afraid of civilizations outside. They are very playful and naïve. They are almost always cheerful, and extremely energetic. They are slow to trust initially, but warm up quickly. Their societies are happy and well knit, with the Males hunting and protecting the tribe and the Females caring for the young and tending the homes. But the occasional Fawn yearns to live outside of the forest, and escapes the humdrum life of their home for adventure. They are omnivorous, but prefer plants. They won't eat venison.

Physical Description

Fawn are centaurs, but instead of a horse-body, they have the body of a White-tailed deer. As a result, they are much shorter than their horse-cousins and are about the average height of a human. They have brown hair and a brown coat, with white markings adorning their lower-half. Fawn have two deer-ears that poke out above their hair, and can rotate them to listen for danger. On average the Females have a height of 170cm(5'5") while Males are about 180cm(5'9"). Male Fawn grow regal antlers that are grown for defence. While the Females are slimmer and smaller to hide and escape from predators.

Fawn get along well with Fey, Satyrs, and other forest creatures. They are mostly afraid of other races, because they are accidentally mistaken for deer and killed.
