Baphitaur

Baphitaurs were monstrous creatures that lived in the Labyrinth in the Underdark.

Description
Baphitaurs were tall, broad creatures, about tall. They most closely resembled minotaurs, with a bestial head and bull ears, as well as short, very sharp horns. Their bodies were covered in stringy hair and they possessed a long tail. Their feet were those of humanoids rather than hooves.

Abilities
Like their minotaur relatives, baphitaurs had an innate sense of direction and understanding of mazes, and could not get lost while in one. Additionally, their demon blood provided resistance to cold, electricity, and fire. Baphitaurs possessed a keen sense of smell. Once each day, a baphitaur could create darkness. Additionally, all baphitaurs were capable of raging like a barbarian.

Society
Baphitaurs were a nasty, brutish people of similar mindset as their demonic ancestors. Most baphitaurs trained as barbarians; however, clerics were also known. Baphitaurs worshiped the demon lord Baphomet.

History
Baphitaurs were the product of ancient Netherese experiments that combined human, minotaur, and demon blood through awful sorcery. They were initially created at the school of magic at Andalbruin, but escaped centuries before Netheril fell to dwell in the Labyrinth. There they would come to dwell for many centuries, improving upon its original dwarven design. Eventually normal minotaurs came to live in the Labyrinth alongside them, who the baphitaurs would lead in the worship of baphomet.
