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 and males sport beards and plentiful body hair, often curly. The transition from man-torso to goat-abdomen is sometimes blurred by the amount of body hair. The humanoid torso is more like that of a human or halfling than an elf or eladrin.

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 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. 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 ave trouble planning for tomorrow, and their companions often have to remind them of the urgency of their task. But once set on some task, they got at it with great vigor.

Female satyrs are sometimes called meneads, and are less violent than males, preferring to provoke others into fighting rather than to fight themselves.

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