The Goatfolk (Faunoides hircus), commonly known as Jaraks and derogatorily referred to as Bohvers, are goat-like anthropoid mammals belonging to the Caprinimorphidae family. As the sole species in the genus Faunoides, Goatfolk are native to the western Lumarian Plain and are believed to share a common ancestor with the Sheepfolk, with whom they are able to interbreed successfully due to their shared taxonomical family. Additionally, despite significant chromosomal differences, Homo sapiens and F. hircus can also interbreed, resulting in fertile offspring with hybrid genotypic and phenotypic characteristics.
