Centaur

Perhaps the most common variety of Liminal races in IGNOLand, the centaur is made up of a human-like torso atop a horse's body. They also notably possess pointed ears, like elves. Centaurs come in as many shapes and sizes as do natural horses, with various coat colors and patterns. Despite popular perception, most civilized IGNOLand centaurs do in fact wear clothes (tops made for humans fit them just fine, with their lower bodies usually covered by a robe or skirt of some kind), though 'nude' centaurs are not uncommon (there's no particular taboo against it in centaur society - most centaurs are just trendy hipsters who enjoy fashion). Most IGNOLand centaurs live in Centaur City, a major hub city of the Wayward Woods (only slightly smaller than IGNO City).

Perhaps the most notable trait of centaurs is their inherent fear of trees, a genetic trait that exists within the brain of all centaurs. Centaurs cannot differentiate ordinary trees from the monstrous Ents that prey on them - the cause of which, some say, is a curse laid on them by a dryad long long ago. Whatever the case, centaurs will panic if they draw too close to a tree, rearing up and fleeing much like a real fearful horse. The bravest centaurs may become priests of Flamehoof, the centaur guardian deity, and take on the task of burning down trees in the surrounding area in an effort to 'defend' the City. Centaurs are a reasonably common sight outside the Wayward Woods as well, and will live happily in any urban area where there are not many trees.

There is also a tribe of desert centaur who seem to share the same type of fear over their native cacti.
