                          Riverdwellers
    A group of kelpie-like centaurs who live on an island surrounded by smaller, water-bordered islands aptly named "Shattered Island." The herd is well-built with powerful legs and strong bodies to swim effortlessly. A natural ring of cottonwood, willow trees, and species of thorned crawling fauna protects the Shattered Island.
    This herd prioritizes the rivers and water more than the other herds, making their celebrations for yearlings a different one; the yearlings are drowned in a pool within the center island and are brought back to life by the healer (or oldest healer if there's more then one).
    The yearlings put their right hooves and hands on a stone collum located in the center of the herd's territory, and are celebrated with a massive festival for two nights and three days.
    The herd is predominantly made up of dappled and pinto coats to camouflage in the water.
