Description
Monster Info: Beastkin who take the form of Cows and Bulls, not too distant cousins of the Centaurs and the more calmed descendents of the original Minotaurs. Sometimes referred to as 'Cowboys' and 'Cowgirls,' the Bostaurus are rather peaceful as oppose to their ancestors, which were vicious and carnivorous beasts.

Appearance: They come in many different, diverse forms, though the females of black and white fur tend to yield the most milk and are most often used for dairy production. They typically own their own farms and settlements, selling their naturally produced wares to passersby and those who are in need of milk. Otherwise, they produce it just for food and drink to those of their village. Being naturally friendly and an energetic, hard working race, they run their farms efficiently and with lots of love.

History: Their race is naturally respectful and courteous, making up for their lack of 'smarts' with a whole heap of loving and kindness. They're simple folk that tend to live in pastures and in valleys, wherever there is a lot of greenery, flatland and a source of water. Sometimes, they'll even put their settlements in the mountains.

Purpose: The milk and dairy products they yield are extremely nutritious, famed for their ability to rejuvenate both vitality and spirit, which is why it is sought out so much. Many people buy large quantities when they go to train with their magic or jutsu, so they don't run out of chakra.

Additional Info: Though they dislike fighting, the male Bostaurs are quick to defend with a great deal of aggression. With their strong bodies and long horns, they will all stampede at the same target all at once to run them out of the village, if they feel any bit of it being threatened. Their race as a whole are incredibly fast and agile, even if sometimes they can seem a little dense and stubborn. Sometimes, they may fashion weapons to defend themselves (such as large axes or hammers), though they more than often enjoy using their own bodies.

Weapons

Physical

Horns - Horns of variable size and sharpness based on the strength and physical condition of the Bostaurus. Males naturally have longer, sturdier and sharper horns meant for more prominent physical combat.

Hooves - Powerful hooves that are usually as hard and solid as rock. They deliver powerful kicks and are able to break through many solid structures.

Ax/Hammer - Fashioned from the horns and hooves of those that have passed on, usually becoming very sharp and very sturdy. Though they are known to occasionally use other materials, they tend to stay in the family. They are able to transfer power and draw strength from the spirit of their ancestors this way.
