Kentaur der Volkspolizei-Bereitschaften
I'm sure you've seen the occasional police centaur. But what about a police centaur styled after 1990 East German riot police?
Some History:
Around 1990, the Volkspolizei (East German police), specifically the Bereitschaftspolizei (riot police), inherited a large amount of Strichtarn-uniforms (the camouflage pattern seen in the picture) from the dissolving NVA (East German army). They were quickly turned into police uniforms by often just stenciling "POLIZEI" onto the back.
The concept of the riot police as we know it today, with large shields, visor helmets, and batons standing in tight formations to control crowds, was conceived around that time, too.
(Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
Doesn't depict a specific character.
