Minotaurs

Minotaurs are powerfully built and tower more than seven feet in height, with the head of a bull and the body of a human. Their coloration can range from black to white with brown and red being common. The males gorw horns from 1 to 2 feet in length while the females are a bit shorter. Minotaurs revere physical strength above all else, and they believe that the strong should naturally rule the weak. They are ruthless, harsh, and stubborn, but they can be surprisingly intelligent and introspective. Their society is based upon the strongest and most capable warriors ruling. Female minotaurs are just as capable as the males and can fight to improve their station.
