#REDIRECT [[Outcast Tribes]] |
|||
The Outcast Tribes were a group of Humans and 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. Most having images of a flame-wreathed lion, the item to which the mark is placed differs depending on the person involved. |
|||
[[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 |
|||
[[Mairdaen]]: a hooded robe of dun-colored cloth fastened at the throat with a copper clasp 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 Tribe'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> |
|||
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. |

==Sealed in Water== |
|||
Water to the Outcast Tribes is a sacred source of all life, thus its symbolic nature is nearly limitless. It is often used by two people as they enter a pact together. 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. |
|||

|||
==Horsemasters== |
|||
For many years now the Outcast Tribes have been working on developing their own breed of horse, the [[Zeharca]]. Deals with the trader [[Ishtvan]] has allowed many on the mainland to experience this breed and continued interest has made the business of horse breeding profitable for the tribes. |
