Thus, they love the wild, andthey fiercely protect pure lands from despoiling interlopersand monsters. They see combat and athleticcontests as paths to renown, and they do not feardeath in battle. Their celebrations after successfulbattles, hunts, or births are unruly and long, full ofboasting, sport, and drink.As fierce as they are, centaurs are gentle to oneanother and to friends. They have a strong mysticaltradition and wise leaders, most of which are female.Their laws are simple and very different from humanstandards. The punishment for serious crimes is banishmentfrom the tribe. Such outlaws must leave thetribe's lands, and no other tribe member can raisehand or hoof to help them.Nature DC 21: Devotion to Kord's creed and aspiritual connection to nature is physically manifestin these fey creatures; mystics among the centaursdevelop amazing powers over the natural world.Centaurs devoted to battle, as well as centaur mages,develop power over lightning and thunder.ENCOUNTER GROUPSCentaurs have strong ties with elves, eladrin,gnomes, and satyrs.
