So me and a friend got bored one day, and made a custom race for his world: fauns! We made more then that though (tanuki, tengu and yuan-ti are player races with some heavy modifying on some of them) but the fauns are a race near and dear to me.
Check them out on my blog and tell me what you think of, either on the blog page or in here. Or both!

And only now do I realize the repetition of words and spelling errors. Don't mind them for now, and I'll go and fix them ASAP. Also posting it here as well.

“You go into them woods, boy, I can’t assure you’ll come out the same person you were. The song of the denizens who live there, they’ll try to charm you into joining them in their raucous dances and hedonistic rituals. Don’t follow them goat-men, or you can count your sanity gone.”
Fauns are humanoid creatures who share the characteristics of the average human but the lower portions of a goat or a deer. Sly, wily and mischievous, these forest-dwellers are typically nomadic and take great enjoyment in innocent trickery. They delight in fine art as well, and are experts with finely crafted bows and arrows. If you find a flurry of arrows coming at you, chances are it is the work of fauns on a hunting expedition.
