Going to have some tie-ins to Greek mythology in my Hollow Earth Expedition campaign coming up. To that end, I decided to write up centaurs as a creature/player race option…

Once thought to be creatures of myth or allegory, Centaurs (and the female, Centaurides), roam the plains of the Hollow Earth near Atlantis and Shangri-La. Usually, they are to be found in herds or in small hunting groups, but the occasional lone adventurer can be encountered almost anywhere in the interior world.
The centaur are a peculiar people — prone to great emotion and little self-control (as a rule.) They are often drunkards, and when drunk, unpredictable. When befriended, they are incredibly loyal and caring; when made an enemy, they are implacable and deadly, combining the best and worst traits of man and horse — they are fast, strong, smart, and vicious.
