My apologies Alaundo. This is exactly the reason why I directed the Cardinal to the website in my profile, in an attempt to discontinue this conversation on non-Realmslore...



What are peoples thoughts then, on a tribal (almost clan like) society of minotaurs living an instinctual lifestyle in the wilds surrounding some major urban area of the Realms?.

::peeks over Alaundo's shoulder, watching Cardinal Deimos trudge all the way down:: OOhhh... heheh... HA HA! ::vanishes before he can get caught up in this 'punishment' too::

I am like a superhero, with no powers or motivation.
I have gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, please keep me here.
People like you are the reason people like me are on medication.

There could even have been an "enchanced" ruling class created by Baphomet, similar to Sess'innek creating the Lizard Kings.



Well, Baphomet *does* have the baphitaurs, and there are some fiendish and half-fiendish minotaurs out there. And there are always ghours and bulezaus. Not to mention goristro and ankhashar... say, I like ol' Hornhead and his minions myself, but is it just me, or has he gotten a LOT of coverage of late?

A small minotaur city in the Realms is something I have been working on for a future campaign of mine... I received much help from the kindly sages here at Candlekeep almost a year ago... It turned into a rather long thread. Some kind sage will post the link for it, I am sure,as I am technologically challenged...

Here's the thread: Minotaur Cultures in the Realms?

I have it bookmarked, because I'm going to follow up on that idea at some point in the future.

Thanks Wooly! How do you do that? @#$!! &%#!@*! I have tried twice... Anyway, my intelligence, or lack there-of, not-withstanding, I love the idea of a small somewhat civilized Minotaur city in the Realms, not to copy Dl, but to bring a favorite race into Faerun...

Not for everything, but I do keep a list of pre-formatted, frequently used links handy so I can readily copy and paste the info, as necessary.

I believe that they are covered in Savage Species, though I'm not home to check. And I think they are also a playable race in Dragonlance.

They're covered in Savage Species, yes. And they're a playable race in the DLCS 3e as well.

Aureus, you might want to try looking over the WotC site as well. I seem to recall them providing an alternate level progression for a slightly modified (from Savage Species) minotaur PC.
