Two smaller ones, yes, while multiclassing as a rogue/ranger for multiple shots per turn.

Centaurs (and other *taur types. Looking at you, furries) are overall an incredibly dumb design.

The more you think about them, the more they just don’t work. I went from meh, to dislike, to hate for centaurs over the years.

They shoot arrows with a bow?!

The saddle apparatus has a cock holster to prevent chafing.

Making ‘bad’ art is how you get better. genAI will never get better or create anything good looking or original.

Edit: I’d rather see any real people’s ‘bad’ attempts than even 1 genAI slop.

They swing them in sync with the opposing leg.

Centaurs have four.

Well said. Just about every good artist has to start as a bad artist.

They shoot you with their bow.

Wait till you get into the math of <insert any mythological creature with wings>.

A Pegasus, if it were to fly in the same way as a bird, would require extremely large wings relative to its body size, likely much larger than commonly depicted. Calculations suggest a wingspan of at least 30 meters (about 100 feet) for a horse-sized creature. This is due to the constraints of the square-cube law and the need for sufficient lift to support the horse’s weight.

A study of dragons from movies and video games suggests they would need to fly much faster or have wings 45 times larger to stay aloft.

Don’t even get me started on Sphinxes and Manticores.

That is why I like unicorns. when they fly, nobody starts calculating. Everybody just accepts the magic

This is just a random picture he made for the meme. He’s not trying to sell it and it doesn’t replace an actual artist. IMO that’s an accetable use of AI.

That’s why I like my winged mythical creatures with really big wings.

Sphinxes are bad, but still not as bad as centaurs, as Sphinxes don’t have an entire additional body attached to their body.

I’m a sci-fi guy. I can accept that whatever force is causing the unicorn to fly is one that I haven’t measured or studied yet.

Any sufficiently understood magic is indistinguishable from science.

There’s no acceptable use for something that can only exist by violating the copyright terms for millions of artists.

Naruto running, but with his hands holding onto his own reins

For the pegasus, are they factoring in possibilities like having hollow bones like birds do to reduce weight? Granted, that would severely hamper their abilities to be a horse, but maybe they’re not supposed to be beasts of burden?

This is just another reminder how weird a centaur is as a concept. Vertebrates don’t have more than 4 limbs. Land vertebrates mostly have 4 legs, but the structure of their forelegs is very similar to human arms and wrists. Bats have wings, but their wings are basically arms with a membrane of skin between the bones. Even a Naga (human / snake hybrid) makes more sense than a centaur.

Also, think how unbalanced a centaur would be. Instead of a trunk that merely has to support a neck and a head, a centaur has to support a full half-human right at the front of its body. That would shift the centre of mass way forward, so most of the weight would be on the middle limbs. That would affect its ability to gallop, because in a gallop most of the running power of a horse comes from the back legs. If the back legs are almost completely unloaded because all the weight is at the front, the back legs wouldn’t be able to push with much force.

A more realistic centaur would have the trunk weight shifted backwards, so instead of having a human torso replacing its neck and head, it would be like a rider on a horse but without the rider’s legs or the horse’s head.

I’d hold my hands like when you stick your hand out of the car window and surfs on the air.
