This is my favorite minotaur, the baby on the lap of Pasiphae on this South Italian cup (c. 340-320 BCE, now in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris).

Aka the Mini-taur.

I was inspired by the original M:tG Hurloon Minotaur art to design a 2Ed Minotaur PC from a Plains Indian style culture. He was an albino- per the art- and his primary weapons were longbow, axe and spear. Since 2Ed Minotaurs were big enough to be size L, that made for some nice damage…

Over the years, I’ve collected a fair number of Minotaur minis. I have at least one Grenadier and a Heritage (as I recall), plus a Ral Partha (?)“Greek” one with spear and shield. The last ones I got were made by Rackham. And, FWIW, I successfully tracked down a Hurloon Minotaur mini, too.

I remember some game book which had a minotaur. Oh man you just run broke open a core memory.

I think it was these ones:

Cretan Chronicles - Wikipedia

But the question is, how do you pronounce 'minotaur'?

Mine-oh-tor or minn-a-tarr?

 

[Shades of Eternity]

Regional dialects.

One is more Greek

One is more Scottish.

My minotaur is a good one.

Not my work, but Rite Publishing released for PF1.0 In the Company of Minotaurs supplement - rules to create a 1st - 20th level Minotaur racial prestige class. Since the D&D minotaur is CR 4, generally it's too powerful to play as a 1st level character, so a racial paragon class is a means of playing the mythic story version of a minotaur in PF increments of power equivalent to a player class.

Mine-oh-tor or minn-a-tarr?

“Mine-oh-tarr”, usually.

 

[gamerprinter]

I say "minn-o-tor".
