Minotaur clerics (NPC only) invariably worship only one god: Sargas (Sargonnas the Red Condor).
Natural Armor Class: 8 (leathery hide). Minotaurs may not wear body armor. (Well, they can but it won’t help their AC.)
Hit Points: In addition to their hit die roll by class, minotaurs receive 5 bonus hit points at first level.
Alignment: Minotaurs tend toward lawful evil. PC minotaurs may be of any alignment.
Special Damage: In lieu of weapons, in any round a minotaur can butt an opponent of 6′ or more in height, or bite a shorter one, the former attack doing 2-8, the latter 1-4, points of damage. When using weapons, they prefer to use a huge two-handed axe (D1-10/2-12) or a flail (D4-9/4-10).
Special Advantages: Minotaurs are surprised only on a 1. They can track prey by scent 50% of the time. They are immune to maze spells and receive a +3 bonus to their morale scores (including saves vs. magical fear). They have 60′ infravision.
Special Disadvantages: Minotaurs take damage as large creatures.
Hello
Here is what I have found in the campaign’s settings of the second edition (page 68 and 76) of Dragonlance adventures and talandas (P32). IE for the second edition.
Minotaur are large creature, over 7 feet in general and up to 8 and half feet tall and about 350 lbs (no max giving 450 lbs seems right they weight and very muscular and highly intelligent. In Krynn they are descendants of Irda (ogres). So, they are what ogres were intended to be intelligent and cunning. They can live up to 150 years.
They worship Sargas (sorgonas for the rest of the world) and a few worship kiri Jolith.
Minotaurs are driven and place a hight value on honour. They see themselves as superior to all other races (the Solamnic Knights being the exception due to military prowesses and how the later consider honour). Minotaurs believe they are destined to rule the world. They are ruthless in battle and cold in justice (they tend to be lawful evil after all) and cunning in politics.
Family and family honour primes above all else, followed by the kingdom honour. Ritual and judicial combat in the circus is a fundamental building block of the society. (Basically, the blood seas minotaur kingdom a mix of Klingon and Romans)
In that setting as far as I can tell, they have no natural attacks (which makes sense and gore attacks are likely to get you killed)/
They are probably the best sailors and ship builders on Krynn.
They have the following bonuses
+2 in strength and constitution
-2 in wisdom and charisma.
They have keen senses especially odorant and earing hence:
• They are proficient at tracking skill (and without the -6)
• They are surprised on a 1
Their mvt is 12” and their size is large.
