Maruuk Centaur

The Maruuk Centaur are centaur found on the Dragon Isles.
==History==
The Maruuk have existed on the Dragon Isles since before the War of the Ancients. The Wild God Ohn'ahra long ago guided them to the Ohn'ahran Plains, where they came to live in peace with the green dragonflight. Clans rose and fell over the years, but they maintained relative peace among themselves and the dragons.2022-10-07, Dragonflight: Major Factions Overview.

With the revealing of the Dragon Isles to the world, the Alliance and Horde made their way to the Dragon Isles. The Maruuk were initially cautious of the outsiders, and challenged the new arrivals to prove themselves worthy of the clans' respect.
==Culture==
Composed of hunters, nomads, and storytellers, the Maruuk are composed of multiple centaur clans, each of which specializes in a different area. The centaur clans are deeply connected to the land, maintaining their traditions, and those seeking to assist can earn their trust.

==Notes==
*It is currently unknown how the Maruuk predate the War of the Ancients, as it was previously thought that the only centaur race had only been born around 1,100 years ago by the union of Zaetar and Theradras.
*According to a factions overview in Dragonflight, all of the Maruuk share the same culture. According to an Ohn'ahran Plains preview, however, every Maruuk clan's culture is unique.
**In the game, they share the same base culture, but each clan has a different focus. Teerai are focused on tradition, Shikaar on hunting, Nokhud on war, Ohn'ir on religious worship, Toghus on craftsmanship and animal rearing, and Uhkel is focused on necromancy (though this appears to be a recent development). It is unknown what Clan Kaighan or Clan Aylaag are focused on.
