So what makes a centaur? Well a horse body of course but what else?
Well, I think Centaurs are probably nomadic, I don't think they tend to build huge settlements, so I believe they're probably very sociable with one another, almost like a big extended wagon-train family.
Do you think centaurs are an advanced or primitave race?
Depends what you mean. They probably don't need vehicals, but they might have their own sciences. Horse leg injuries are very serious problems, so they probably became great at treating injuries early on in their species evolution.
Where would centaurs live?
Plains, forests, the foot of mountains.
Do they have their own language?
Probably a common language because I don't think all centaurs are in one place all the time, but they need to communicate.
How well do you think theyd get along with other races?
Pretty well? I don't think they'd be hostile unless threatened.
Do they have a relgion? Do they accept same sex marriages?
Erm... Probably?

I would think some centaurs can have any sort of four-legged animal body. Mostly hoofed creatures, however. Centaurs are also caring for the land they live on.
Do you think centaurs are an advanced or primitave race?
Both. The centaurs are not so primitive that they're like cave-men or humanoid animals, but advanced enough so that they have at least average human IQ or above. Though primitive in the fact that they would prefer living in a more natural environment, and not in a city, though maybe in suburbs.
Where would centaurs live?
Anywhere a human can live plus more. Beaches, plains, forests, jungles, deserts, mountains, and tundras. Though would probably be uncomfortable in a city.
Do they have their own language?
Yes. The language would be kept strictly to centaurs, however.
How well do you think theyd get along with other races?
Okay. I wouldn't think centaurs would be racist.
Do they have a relgion? Do they accept same sex marriages?
They would have a religion similar to that of plains indians, probably. Something tribal-esque. That depends on their opinions. I accept it, so there would probably be centaurs out there that would as well.

I thought that was Fauns?

Also:

I think anything, but they have to have the horse body. It can't be something else. >> Half jungle cats are called Lamias, and we all know what we call half bird half humans.

Do you think centaurs are an advanced or primitave race?
I think they're advanced, but are able to live in peace with nature. Kinda like what man is trying to do, but better because they're doing it. >w<
AKA: They have computers and such but are efficiently coexisting wih nature.


Where would centaurs live?
Anywhere, but it has to be away from the eyes of mankind. Otherwise we woulda seen'em by now. XD

Do they have their own language?
Oh, of course! But they would keep it to themselves.

How well do you think theyd get along with other races?
Probably pretty well. Depending. I don't think they'd be rascist, but there could be a couple races that would bother them. EG: Humans?

Do they have a relgion? Do they accept same sex marriages?
As for religion, I think it would be very diverse, like humans, but they would all be peaceful with other religions. i.e.: "I believe in this/these god(s), but I respect your love and belief in those other gods." XD

And I do so hope they accept same sex marriage/couples. I'd be so unloved if they didn't. XD;

Pride is the center. Horses are often (if not always) connected to pride and elegance, and so are centaurs, though I do not belive they will be tamed as easily, never if their pride is intact. But among their own, they can be playful even for their large amount of pride, but I dont think thats a side they show the general public.

I hear its very bad to get them drunk, because they get very violent.

Do you think centaurs are an advanced or primitave race?
I would say that they can be ignorant due to level of pride and horse nature. But clever. Meaning that you cant really argue them out of place if its about something they take pride in.

Where would centaurs live?
In a forest, its most natrual thing. They are too large to be able to live comfortably in a building and such. Huts would be acceptable for sleeping.

Do they have their own language?
Dont think they do, but it would be old and wise, a part of their pride.

How well do you think theyd get along with other races?
Not overly well, besides trading goods, they would keep to their own. But there are always exceptions and then there is the case of how you are raised.

Do they have a relgion? Do they accept same sex marriages?
I would say no, if they cant breed naturally, it would seem silly to most. They would probably be able to show each other affection, but something as unnatrual (just saying) would be looked oddly at, even down upon.
