Phaunos have been seen frolicking throughout<br />
the forests <strong>of</strong> <strong>Fenorra</strong> for as long as anyone can<br />
remember. These goat-horned, furry legged<br />
people tend to live life at the extreme. Drinking,<br />
fighting, loving, nothing is done halfway, except<br />
perhaps hard work. Perhaps this is why there<br />
are no Phaunos scholars. Known in parts <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Fenorra</strong> as “Goat people,” for the most part the<br />
Phaunos are an easy going people, enjoying a<br />
good time. However do not let them hear you<br />
use that slang term as it is considered highly<br />
<strong>of</strong>fensive.<br />
Phaunos are a close-knit race tending to live in<br />
the forest grouped together in tribes. While each<br />
<strong>of</strong> these clans has their own traditions, there are<br />
a few things that remain universal. They do not<br />
use edged weapons and instead teach their<br />
young the art <strong>of</strong> the thrown weapon. Family<br />
units live together until their children mate, at<br />
which point those mates move towards the<br />
outskirts <strong>of</strong> the tribal land in order to learn to<br />
depend on one another. As their match matures,<br />
the pair will return to the main tribal lands to<br />
raise their brood amongst the rest <strong>of</strong> the tribe.<br />
The eldest members <strong>of</strong> the tribe, those reaching<br />
towards 200 years <strong>of</strong> age, live in the center <strong>of</strong><br />
Phaunos<br />
their society, and their advice is <strong>of</strong>ten sought in<br />
times <strong>of</strong> need.<br />
This race is also taught to have a pr<strong>of</strong>ound<br />
respect for nature from a young age. Even<br />
though it is not uncommon to find a Phauno<br />
chasing a Dryad throughout the forest, this is<br />
more <strong>of</strong> a game, than anything done out <strong>of</strong><br />
malice.<br />
Some <strong>Fenorra</strong>ns are having difficulty adjusting<br />
to the Phaunos who have chosen to live amongst<br />
normal townsfolk. Their loud, brash nature<br />
being a little more than the villagers can take.<br />
This isn’t to say that the Phaunos are not liked,<br />
just that their mannerisms are in sharp contrast<br />
to the somber attitudes <strong>of</strong> most villagers. Trying<br />
to explain this to a Phaunos though, would fall<br />
on deaf ears. They are a stubborn race, and<br />
much prefer pursuits <strong>of</strong> self-gratification, to<br />
listening to town politics or the woes <strong>of</strong> others<br />
around them. It is because <strong>of</strong> this hard<br />
headedness, that the Phaunos are unaffected by<br />
the charms <strong>of</strong> the vast majority. Although even<br />
this has their limits when it comes to vampyres,<br />
and Phaunos will discreetly cast their eyes aside<br />
to avoid notice.<br />
