Homebrew Leotaur Species Details

These majestic leonine beasts have the lower body of a lion on all fours and a humanoid top half, giving them six limbs in total. Each arm and leg is tipped in sharp claws for running, climbing and attacking. They often have sharp feline teeth and long whiskers. Male liontaurs have luxurious, full manes. Females have regular hair rather than a mane. There are two subraces, one which is more human than the other.

The more human one lacks a good amount of fur and sports human skin over the hands, torso, and face. They retain the whiskers and teeth, but their face is also much more human-like. Their hands have only slightly longer nails, being less like claws. The mane for males largely comes out of the head and cascades to wrap around the chest and neck. Females of the human subrace have more variance in pelt textures and colors like humans do. This subrace, referred to as homo, has human eye colors and pupils.
The beastly subrace, called leo, is covered in a full-body furry pelt. The face is much more leonine, with a protruded snout. Their eyes are golden brown hues with feline slits. Compared to their lither counterparts, these are more burly and carnal. Their claws are very sharp and they have a more powerful vocal box than their homo counterpart.
