The Dama are the smallest tribe of centaurids, chimaera that resemble the centaurs from ancient Greek mythology. From the torso up they are humanoid, but their lower bodies are of deer aspect. They are renowned for their speed and are considered to be the fastest of all the chimaera. The name of this tribe seems to be derived from the scientific name of the Fallow deer: ''Dama dama''. Dama is also the genus to which the Fallow deer belongs to.
