SATYR
Similiar to the
Faun, satyrs have the upper half of a man and the lower
half of a goat, with a either a goat ot horse tail. Mature satyrs are
have goat's horns, while juveniles have bony nubs on their foreheads.
These roguish but faint-hearted folkare subversive and dangerous, yet
shy and cowardly. They are lovers of wine and women, and they are ready
for every physical pleasure. They roam to the music of pipes, cymbals,
castanets, and bagpipes, and they love to dance with the
nymphs (with
whom they are obsessed, and whom they often pursue), and have a special
form of dance called sikinnis. Because of their love of wine, they are
often represented holding wine cups, and they appear often in the
decorations on wine cups.
Satyrs are members of the
Supernatural and Fantastic Wayfarers
Association.
