Homebrew Anbennar Centaur Species Details

Centaurs are a half-human half-horse race, with a human's upper torso on the body of a horse.

While originally part of the fey inhabitants of the Deepwoods, the centaurs were chased out by Castan Beastbane and have since lived a nomadic life in the harsh steppes of the Forbidden Plains.

Charge

If a centaur moves at least 30 feet straight toward a target and then hits it with an attack on the same turn, the target takes extra damage of the weapon's type. The amount of extra damage is dependent on level:

1st - 4th level: 1d8

5th - 11th level: 2d8

Equine Predilection

While there are surely advantages to being a hybrid, there are a number of ways in which the horse half of a centaur is a detriment to the humanoid half.

  • As you lack the lower body of a humanoid, you are unable to wear humanoid armor below the belt (ex: leggings, greaves, or boots). Making any attack on your lower half, without special Cantaur armor, having basic Armor Class
  • Due to the larger size of your lower half, any fall damage taken is doubled.
  • Due to your sheer size, you have Disadvantage on Stealth checks.

Hit and Run

When you take the Attack action on your turn and make a ranged weapon attack, you can use a bonus action to move up to half your speed. This movement does not provoke opportunity attacks from the target of your attack.

You are also proficient with Shortbows and Longbows.
