Baphitaur

Baphitaurs are a planetouched race created by Baphomet, who oversaw unholy breeding experiments between humans and minotaurs, both with each other and with the bovine demons known as ghour and goristros. The result was a race of distinctly bovine-featured tieflings, one intimately associated with the Demon Prince of Beasts.

In terms of apperance, these tall, broad humanoids are comparable in size and build to the mightiest of orc warriors. Their faces resemble their minotaur relatives; bovine bestial muzzles with bull-like ears, short but sharp horns, and shaggy manes of hair. They sport human-like feet with claws instead of bovine hooves, and have long, almost rat-like tails.

Baphitaurs appear in the 3.5 "Underdark" sourcebook for the Forgotten Realms setting.

Official 3e Fluff

This tall, powerfully muscled humanoid is covered in shaggy fur. It has the head of a bull, and its eyes gleam with savage fury.

Baphitaurs are the offspring of tieflings mated through unholy sorcery with minotaurs. Though similar in fundamental principle to tieflings, which are descended from human and demon pairings, baphitaurs are the products of magical experimentation rather than demonic breeding as such.

A baphitaur is a tall, broad humanoid, comparable in size and build to a strong orc warrior. Its face resembles that of a minotaur, with bestial features, bull-like ears, short but very sharp horns, and a shaggy mane of hair. Stringy hair covers its body, and a long tail thrashes wildly behind it when it is agitated. A baphitaur’s feet are humanlike, not hoofed. A baphitaur’s demonic blood is mingled with both human and minotaur stock. The result is a creature of unmitigated evil, filled not only with a demonic hatred of puny mortals but also with a passionate fury at the circumstances of its creation.

Baphitaurs speak Undercommon.

A baphitaur fights with a greataxe and uses its horns only when charging opponents. It is considerably more intelligent than a minotaur, so it uses its darkness ability to confuse foes or escape unfavorable odds.

A baphitaur’s favored class is barbarian. Many baphitaur leaders are clerics of Baphomet, who grants them access to the Animal, Evil, Hatred, and Retribution domains.
