they have the lower halves, ears, and (in the case of males) antlers of a deer. horse centaurs are stubborn and hardy. Wild centaurs are clever and playful. while most of them integrate into normal societies, they do live in their own little communities here and there.
Naming Traditions
Kawe, Efi, Iawa, Nive, uaimo
Ukarat, Waich, Kech, Huc, Ulel
most of their names are unisex. things like 'running-squirrel', 'storm cloud', 'flying eagle', and 'hunting cat'.
Culture
hunting is a big part for them. clans of wild centaurs often go on large hunts to have feasts every so often (usually once, maybe twice every few months.). they don't use bows though, they use spears.
cover the important stuff.
when spring comes, they emerge from their homes and prance around happily.
many times, the parents of a newborn name their children after the first thing they see outside their home after the birth.
when someone is seen as ready to hunt by themselves, they are given a spear and knife, and told to leave and not come back until they have felled a beast big enough to feed the clan.
they believe that precursor facilities are cursed. and will not go anywhere near them.
Ideals
females love large antlers. and the men are fans of flat stomachs.
As a culture of hunters, wild centaurs don't have a real gender problem.. just 'if you can survive, you're good'.
it's actually.. kinda similar to real deer. the males beat the fuck out of eachother to impress the females.. though because the males can. .speak. there's a lot more swearing
wild centaurs by their nature (being part deer) are quite timid. so having a somewhat confident partner is big for them.
