The goat king

Description

Well, due to requests, here he is.

The Goat King is the king of the "goat people", being they the Fauns (goat legs, horns but a human face), Satyrs (goat legs, horns but a more animalistic face) or Ramians (human torso with animalistic heads and a ram body);
From since the beginning of times. The actual Goat King is the same spirit reborn again and again. He completes a cycle of life then it's ready for anothe, the actual Goat King in the 97th incarnation of the primordial spirit. If the Goat King demands something from a goat people, the goat people in question will be forced to do as commanded, it's above their will to go against the words of the King. This is valid even for a new law or anything dictated by him: it becomes part of the nature of all goat people to obey that law, tough the Goat King is wise and won't anything, well, crazy (usually).

One curiosity is when the Spirit reborns an oracle have an insight of how he'll die but it's a vague notion. Like the actual incarnation will be murdered by a weapon, others knew how they would go, but never when. Examples are "the Goat King will die by drowning" or "consumed by fire". Knowing this makes them become a bit overzealous about those conditions.

At his side is a Shaman Using an elemental staff. The elemental staff consists in representations of the 4 elements and, in that case, are: A rib of a shark (water), a Leaf (earth), a Feather from a bird (air) and a small everburning fire.
Shamans are basically spirit/elemental mages, they ask for the elemental spirits to wave their spells into reality.
