The Outcasts were a group of Elves that claimed to have been cast out of [[Ilithi]] by a pact between [[Corik]] and [[Morganae]]. They had lived generations and grown strong in the Velaka Desert northwest of [[Therengia]] and in the year 375 [[AV]] they brought an army out of the deserts on a march back to [[Shard]], led by King [[Raenilar]]. This attack and the following occupation of Ilithi would last several years and be known as the [[Outcast War]].

==Symbol of the King==
The Warrior King Raenilar bestows his mark on any whom serve him. Mostly having images of a flame-wreathed lion, the item to which the mark is placed differs.

Raenilar: some black battle leathers emblazoned with a flame-wreathed lion

Koromas: a black leather baldric fastened with a silver buckle in the shape of a flame-wreathed lion

Yhaman: some fine Elven chainmail etched with a flame-wreathed lion

Tiso: a brushed silver cloak pin set with a tiny glass figure of a flame-wreathed lion filled with glittering sand

==Artifacts==
Few artifacts have been recovered from the time period which the Outcast's ancestors lived in the land that is now shard. Only three have been made public.

a faded arzumos hide scroll. It is very old... something about a road or journey. The writing is not clearly in a language that is understood. The badly worn and faded, the tattered hide depicts a line of Elves being forcibly marched away from a small island upon which a new city is being built. Almost all are burdened with heavy packs, overloaded carts and small children. The scroll has on it writing that reads: "Yol Malcisen... Uskela'jama..."
<br>
<br>
a chipped ceramic bowl. Though quite faded, the center of the bowl is painted with what appears to be a small island village in the middle of a crystalline lake. Around the rim are various scenes depicting what appear to be Elves engaged in battle or a bloody sport of some type.
<br>
<br>
a rough stone tablet. A relief depicting small groups of what appear to be Elves surrounded by larger, armed groups of indeterminate race is carved on the stone's rough surface. In the background, a small island village burns.
<br>

==Sealed in Water==
Water to the Outcasts is a sacred source of all life, thus its sybollic nature is nearly limitless. It is often uses by two people as they enter a pact togeather. The pact is made to honor a deal or trade, in respect to their mutual benefit though the transaction. The two share a single vessel of water and after both have drank from it fully they are expected to be bound to their agreement.
<br>
==Horsemasters==
For many years now the Outcasts have been working on developing thier own breed of horse, the [[Zeharca]]. Deals with the trader [[Ishtvan]] has allowed many on the mainland to experiance this breed and continued interest has made the buisness of horse breeding profitable for the Tribe.
