Physical Qualities

Satyrs are humanoid with the lower body of a goat and the upper body of a human.

Their heads bear ram's or goat's horns. These are usually smaller in females and larger in males, but highly variable in size. Males sport beards and plentiful body hair, often curly. The transition from man-torso to goat-abdomen is sometimes blurred by body hair. Ears are slightly pointed and not elongated. The humanoid torso is more like that of a human than an eladrin. Satyrs can disguise themselves as humans if they cover their legs and horns.

Satyrs wear garlands of flowers and jewelry if they have it, but not much in the way of clothes; possible exceptions are a vest, jacket, tie, or cravat. Females sometimes wear long skirts that conceal their legs, and both genders sometimes don robes with tall hoods as a disguise.

Satyrs have lifespans comparable to humans.

Playing a Satyr

Satyrs are hedonistic and wild, living for the moment and in the main refusing social restrictions and barriers. They enjoy wine, dancing, music, and lovemaking above all else. Satyr heroes are rare, and tend to break with the norm, be more serious and involved. While they can see far-reaching goals, they still have trouble planning for tomorrow, and their companions often have to remind them of the urgency of their task. But in motion, they work with great vigor.

Female satyrs are sometimes called meneads, and prefer to provoke others into fighting rather than to fight themselves.

Satyr names tend to be silly, pompous, or vulgar and are often full of innuendo.
