Editing Centaurs (section)

=== Personality ===
Centaurs are touchy, haughty, competitive, and they don’t accept bad manners <em>at all</em>; the slightest offense will instantly be corrected, regardless if it causes trouble for all parties involved.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/03/03/1-03-d/ Chapter 1.03 D]</ref> Two centaurs fighting due to pride or wounded feelings is a common sight in a herd, and it makes them troublesome in a mixed-species group. If a Centaur dislikes someone, they will dress them down and humiliate them.<ref name=":3">{{VERef|10.06}}</ref>

They are honorable and they take pride in not committing shameful actions. What they regard as shameful, however, might differ from other people's view. For instance, they don't consider ambushes shameful; it is simply a good way of fighting wars. Furthermore, their commitment to the idea of honor only lasts as long as they think the <em>other</em> side is playing by the same rules. If they were to think there was just a hint of underhandedness, the need for honor would go.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/03/06/1-05-d/ Chapter 1.05 D]</ref>

They have a stigma against members of their species who cannot run.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/07/10/9-05-npr/ Chapter 9.05 NPR]</ref> For a non-Centaur to earn their respect, the ability to keep up with them on horseback is a requisite. They will gift glass beads to those who have earned that respect.<ref name=":3" />
