● Fingernails that are thicker and darker in color than a human's.
● Cloven hooves in place of feet.
● A cow-like tail.
● Sharpened senses. The Minotaur's vision will be very sensitive to any sort of movement, and will be greatly improved at night or in low light conditions. Their hearing will improve as well, and they will be able to detect the direction any given noise came from.
● The ability to sense the layout of nearby terrain and easily find their way out of and around forests, cave tunnels, and even complex mazes.
● Increased muscle strength and stamina. Minotaurs are physically very strong and capable of running long distances.
● A weakness to loud, high-pitched noises. Minotaurs have sensitive hearing and such noises can put them off balance and momentarily confuse their sense of direction.
● Hunger and hunting instinct. Minotaurs are not strictly carnivores, but their hunger will not be fully satiated with vegetables. Hunting animals will do for a short time, but the longer they go without hunting a human, the more they'll be compelled to do so until they start losing their self-control.
Optional Changes: ● A fog form. This is an exaggerated version of their monster form that appears only during the fog and is a chance to make your monster more "horrifying" during the fog.
● A thick mane going from their head down to their tail/Fur anywhere on the body. (Hair growing at a rapid rate, plus the beginnings of down across his neck, shoulders, and upper back, to eventually connect to tail and cow legs)
● The ability to change into a full bovine-like from. In this form the character will be able to travel faster, however, they will also be more vulnerable.
● Any number of bull-like facial features, ranging from mild to fully bovine.
● Bull-like legs with a kick strong enough to smash through rock.
● A short temper. Some Minotaurs find it much harder to control their anger than before, and they tend to have aggressive outbursts.
● Some Minotaurs have a keen ear for music and can pick up on any instrument quickly. The music of a Minotaur will lull nearby humans into a vulnerable, dream-like state.
