A centaur is a creature with the head, arms, and upper body of a man joined to the body and legs of a horse. Centaurs prefer to live far from humankind in meadows and forests. They are of average intelligence, and often carry weapons (clubs, lances, and bows; 1 weapon per creature). A charge attack may be used if lances are carried.

Centaurs will form into small tribes or families. Their homes are in dense thickets or woods, reached by twisting and guarded pathways. The females and young will usually stay in the lair. If attacked, females and Young will attempt to flee unless escape is impossible, in which case they will fight to the death. The young fight as if they were 2 HD monsters, and do less damage (1-2/1-2/1-4).
