As our Mythic Adventures often begin at Cheiron's Cave, it is fitting that we indroduce the Centaurs, his people, into our RPG campaigns.

In Greco-Roman myth the Centaurs personified wildness. The tales told of their deeds often demonstrated the perils of uncontrolled passion. A few exceptional souls, like Cheiron, attained a high degree of self-mastery and were noted for their wisdom.

The mightiest champions of ancient Greece, among them Hercules, Jason, Achilles, Castor and Pollux, studied with the wise old Centaur before they left their mark on the world and earned eternal renown for their heroic deeds.

Mongoose Publishing has gathered the surviving scraps of ancient lore and given Centaurs a few new tweaks and twists in The Slayer's Guide to Centaurs. The Slayer's Guide series provides a detailed look into the lives of traditional monsters and grants the game mechanics needed to run one succesfully as a Player Character.

A detailed Centaur village and a handful of local personalities introduce you to the setting. Seven scenario hooks serve as your Calls to Adventure. The inevitable culture-clashes will keep your campaign going as you slowly gain greater understanding of this proud, powerful and often unpredictable species.
