Pact Days: Minotauri #ValespianPact



Welcome to Thursday's Pact Days! Today, we have the Minotauri.

Since the Minotauir have yet to be introduced, I had to withhold a good deal of information. 
No spoilers! Enjoy!  

A couple of side notes: For a list of species that have been posted so far, see the The People of Valespia page. I'm placing these in alphabetical order so I won't unintentionally place importance on any specie. I will leave off information on the species that will spoil future books. My standard sheet has the same categories for all species. So there will be blank categories just because that species didn't need them.


Species: Minotauri (aka Minos)
Planet: Valespia
Other races on the planet: Fal'Amorics, Keygan, Valuzial Guardian, Ophion, Daimoni

See Knossos The Hidden City in notebook 5.

The primary residents are predominately Minotaurs though there are other species living as permanent residents. The city is protected by a labyrinth. Strangers cannot navigate the labyrinth without a guide. 

An abundance of frescos and murals. Shrines of double axes. Minoan columns are constructed from the trunks of cypress trees, smaller at the bottom and wider at the tip, mounted on stone bases with round pillowlike capitols. Those who live in Knossos usually never move away and take on the surname Minos.

The city of Knossos butts up against the Waters of Arcadia where the Ophion do not leave the water at all.
