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 />
