~The Faun Race~
Faun.PNG
This is my character's skin I made, please do not steal or claim it as your own.
First time making a faun skin, please don't judge too hard.
~oOo~
Perks:
  • Double Jump: Most Fauns are mixes between rams, goats, deer. So logically they would be able to jumped twice as high than an average human.
Species:
There are three different fauns. Each mentally and physically shaped for the terrain they live in.
~oOo~
The Agot
Faun.PNG
Agots are built for the rough terrain the lower mountain side and forests. Agots are like rams, jumping from ledge to ledge. They're very agile and aggressive compared to the other fauns. Vines curl around their limbs, and the female's wear a crown of vines and flowers. Their horns are like rams' and have brown to tan coats. Agots dwell inside tree trunks.

The Kenya
Faun2.PNG
Kenyas are covered in thick fur to keep themselves toasting during the cold months on the top o the icy mountains. They horns resemble goats, and their coats spam from white to black. Their hooves are rather large, build for the icy terrain. They can go days without food because they're used to eat little at a time. They're very peaceful and shy. Hiding from creatures and such. Kenyas live in ice caves.

The Abliene
(coming soon)
Ablienes are peaceful loving creatures that are very friendly. They wear crowns of flowers and dance around the meadows. Their horns are short and stubby, and their fur is a soft cream. Ablienes resemble deer fawns, most of the time they have white spots. They habitat meadows, parries, and beaches. Ablienes love to interact with other creatures of the forest. They are the most intelligent out of all of the fauns. Ablienes rest at bay, in the caves that are protected from the water.
History:
Many centuries ago, from the beautiful forests to the top of the snowy mountains, in Ellador lived fauns. The fauns lived merry and content, enjoying their peaceful life. They spent their time, dancing in meadows and singing soothing songs, caring for their children and family. They would sit around fires, playing flutes and singing in harmony.
One day on the coast of Ellador, a hefty oak vessel sailed close by the cove, circling their homeland. The fauns came out of the comfort of their woodlands to watch the view. Astonished at the ship, they concealed themselves behind the trees and gazed down at the humans rapidly working. They bustled about cutting down trees, building small huts, and killing the precious animals that scurried along the forest floor.
As the fauns watched day and night, they slowly inched their way closer and closer to the small human campsite. They were stunned and sorrowed at the sight of their homeland falling to the ground. As the fauns observed the humans labor, they also learned how to construct boats, tools, and even how to mine. The humans continued to consume the forest, gradually making their way closer to the homeland of the fauns.
When the fauns presented themselves to the humans, they were terrified. They saw the half goat, half humans as a threat. Their long horns reminded them of the demons that possessed their brothers and sisters. When the humans came across the faun's homeland, they attacked them in cold blood. They slaughtered the male fauns in front of their families. Then they seized the women, immediately killing them off. After killing the women and men, they executed the children and elders. All in the name of religion.
Some escaped the long hand of the humans, living sorrowfully in the deepest parts of the forests. Where the sun never shined, the birds never sung, the frogs never croaked. Where the grass was nothing more than gravel and stones that pierced through their hooves. Living day by day in the shadow of the past, wondering if their loved ones still lived. Hidden away from the humans that feared them, years passed as their race slowly made their come back. The faun's numbers multiplied along with their stories. Their ancestors that lived through, as they called it, "The slaughter pin" told tall tells about the humans to assure their children's survival.
Humans still believed they killed them off, forever extinct. Though they realized their mistake between demons and fauns, the humans deeply regretted their rash decision.
After the long years of hiding the murky parts of the woodland, the fauns finally left. Hoping to find a new life, the young curios fauns wanted to depart from the pit they were left to live in. They gradually made their way back to the sunshine, meadows, and forests that they used to prance around. Taking in the feeling of the sunshine kissing their skin, the grass under their hooves, the sound of the rushing rivers, the fauns never wanted to return. They all decided to continue on their travels. Though they reached the coast, what seemed to be a never ending sea, where the sky touched the ocean. Remembering what their ancestors learned from the humans, they begun to chop trees down. Coming together, they built a small vessel that could carry only of a few of them. They hoped to reach a new land where they could forever be free. Forget the past and move on.

What about the aforementioned no-meat as a little side effect? They are goats after all. Also, wouldn't they be better suited to a slightly more forested and mountainous environment? Plus, satyrs, which I'd guess this is based on, originated in Greek Mythology and Greece is a pretty mountainous place.

Yes, but fauns were also known to roam forests.
 
The background is irrelevant to the actual concept of the idea of the race, that is just an image. That is kind of Ad Hominem of you...

Again with the whole pink cloud thing, and how you say you use it correctly... No you don't. That post wasn't even roleplay. The pink cloud is for bad roleplay, so stop doing this, please, you're just annoying.
 
Honestly, I'm a bit tired of all these anthropomorphic animal races, but this could be interesting.

Though nice concept skin, I must say.
 
The perk would seem pretty OP if there arent any side effects added. For example, receiving slowness after a limited amount of jumps (making you tired). Having said this... why not just become a good vampire RPer? We need them in Regalia for arresting and publicly executing them!!!

Unfortunatly you will never kill me little Jimmy (i refer everyone to this) as i am already very good you will literally have to find me when im very tired to find out what i am :P (he haz big tounge)
 
And here I thought fauns were just a human-goat hybrid conceived in the sweeping plains of Wales...
 
Is it bad I already have a skin ready for this race? No?

Anyways, I SUPPORT THEE

I really do like this idea, though I do admit there are new races here and there to be done.

Oh yes they were myths/are myths. I'd think they are quite honest and giving, maybe a love for music or two or even events! Also that skin, Kat, is quite good.

I support this even if it is denied.

~oOo~
 
If there were any sort of sheep/goat race, I want them to be mountain goat based. Mountain goats are cooler. :|
 
However the staff is busy with the already new races and all, I do like this idea. It's really interesting and has a good concept however the background is iffy, and it would need a name of some sorts. Overall, I do like just the concept in general of some sort of goat-like race. The background though would need to be more vivid, expanded, and explained, to be honest. I like this idea even if it wasn't to be approved in mean times. In all;

Supported.

I'm writing out a new back story.
 
I support! This is really awesome and it seems to be nice for Elves to have friends! [other then Yanars of course]
 
Of course there are many new races in progress, and it needs tweaking here and there. Regardless,
I Support!
 
I really like the idea of a faun race. I am also supporting this idea.
 
(facepalm) I like the idea but people.........seriously..................

๖ۣۜIf you've read Medieval beliefs and gods, I am pretty sure you just need to see this within their view. After all, Baver used to be a neglected wife, now she is suddenly turned into what some call a "Bitch witch" (sorry, MrsBaver. Dx ). After all, your modern day Slenderman began as a creature that actually wasn't all evil. And he didn't wear a suit. And he actually prevented painful deaths, not caused them.

๖ۣۜOf all things, you really should recommend what you disagree with instead of just (facepalm). It really doesn't help the poster or the people editing the race.

๖ۣۜWell, then again, undead take 15% less damage from every PVP attack. Also, having just a higher jump ability isn't all that powerful. It really is just good for hopping into places that usually is harder to reach. It wouldn't do good in the long-run of PVP, sure, it'd be harder for people to hit you, but then it will also become harder for you to hit them, because you keep hopping too far away from them. I could see it as something to use to run away from battle, not run into it. Plus, goats and deer and sheep do have a sort of spring in their step. They naturally are made to in some way have the ability to run from any predator.

๖ۣۜI like the idea of the Faun race, although if they are considered from Heaven, they wouldn't be slaughtered so much, because you basically just slaughtered an Angel. I could however see them as sort of sacrifices for things like the Avarr, because sacrificing a holy being surely would gain you more likes from the gods, correct? Let alone, their fur would be most likely luxurious as well, because they actually would have the knowledge to groom it normally, if not, more than the actual race of goats/deer.
