A Beastman Gor bearing the head and horns of a bull, known as a Bovigor.
Bovigors, also spelled Bovi-gors, are a type of bull or ox-headed Gors of the Beastmen that possess cattle horns, rather than the heads and horns of goats as is most common among the majority of Gors. Bovigors are also bullheaded in their nature, being very competitive and prizing brute power over any form of subtlety.[1a]
Bovigors are highly competitive and see themselves as superior to all other types of Gors. Most have little use for thinking, preferring instead to use their mighty strength to solve problems.[1a]
Minotaurs and Bovigors[]
Bovigors are very similar to Minotaurs in appearance, although they are, of course, much smaller. They have the same bovine horns as Minotaurs and often have the heads of cattle, much like Minotaurs. The Bovigors look up to true Minotaurs as big brothers and protectors.[2a]
Bovigors will sometimes seek out a Minotaur warherd and join its retinue. It is quite common for whole groups of Bovigors to do this if their own Beastlord is slain. Minotaurs also recognise this kinship between themselves and Bovigors, referring to them affectionately as "little brothers" and "little calves."[2a]
Minotaur warbands and warbands led by a Bovigor Champion will rarely fight if they meet by chance, instead holding a truce to discuss their differences, only resorting to combat if no other option presents itself. Minotaurs are more likely to form alliances with Bovigors than with any other breed of Beastmen. Sometimes a Minotaur champion will even allow a Bovigor to enter his Chaos shrine and witness, for himself, the dark glowing warpstone within.[2a]
