goathers

Goathers are a type of creature found in some fantasy settings, often depicted as semi-humanoid beings with characteristics of goats. Their appearance typically includes horns, fur, and cloven hooves, distinguishing them from humans and other common races. Goathers are frequently portrayed as dwelling in mountainous or wild, untamed regions, favoring rugged terrain and remote locations.

In folklore and fictional narratives, goathers are often associated with nature, primal instincts, and a connection to the wilderness. They might be depicted as possessing a mischievous or untamed nature, sometimes acting as guardians of ancient places or natural resources. Their social structures can vary, with some portrayals showing them as solitary individuals, while others depict them as living in small tribes or communities. Their abilities might include enhanced agility, a strong sense of direction in their native environments, and a deep understanding of the natural world. Goathers are not a commonly recognized mythological or folkloric creature in real-world traditions but are a staple in certain subgenres of fantasy literature and role-playing games.
