| During the [[Resurgence]] in 365 MA, the ancient plane of [[Dendara]] was healed of its latent corruption by the
| | #REDIRECT [[Centaur]] |
| sacrifice of [[Lleis]], Goddess of Renewal. This act intersected the two planes, with essence of Dendara spreading
| |
| out to the [[prime material plane]] in locations where its link was strongest - the Great Oak of [[Duiran]], and the
| |
| [[Vintal Glade]].
| |
| | |
| Shortly afterward, these locations were flooded with the emergence of many fae creatures from Dendara - faun,
| |
| wisps, and other spectral beings. Included among these immigrants were the impressive race of '''centaurs''', who
| |
| were not of fae origin but were mortal beings with humanoid lifespans and needs.
| |
| | |
| Servants of the Wild from Dendara, the centaur are a powerful, intelligent, and noble race of half-men, half
| |
| -horse people, with only a fraction of their population venturing out to explore [[Sapience]] and sample its
| |
| culture. Little is known of their homeland save for that it is described as among the oldest places of the
| |
| world - the ancient, primordial forests.
| |
| | |
| With both speed and strength afforded to them by their equine lower halves, they make excellent soldiers, with
| |
| many of their kind enlisting in the armies of the Heartwood. The centaur are rarely seen outside of the
| |
| [[Ithmias]], for despite being a bold and inquisitive race, they are still understandably wary of Sapience as a
| |
| whole.
| |
| | |
| For all of their eagerness to explore the continent, they are notoriously private about their own culture and
| |
| homeland. The centaur scholars are highly-regarded within their societies, and are often difficult to find on
| |
| Sapience due to the protective nature of their warrior kin.
