Other Prax Nomads

Other than the Zebras and the Sable, the tribes of Prax are currently licking their wounds after their defeat at the hands of the Lunars. Angry at the Sable riders and outraged at what they see as the open support of Chaos by the Lunars, the tribes gather their strength.

Legend tells that during the Greater Darkness before the start of time, all were starving and dying. Then a pact was struck between the people and animals of the wastes. Each tribe had a contest with one of the types of animal to find out who would be the master and the beast. In each case (but one) the men won and so began the tribes.

Most tribes are associated with an animal. The herd them, eat them, ride them and make most of their posessions from them. To the tribe, their animals are their life. They are quite happy to raid each others herds and prefer to eat captured animals if possible.

The Morocanth are bipedal herbivore animals who herd non sentient herdmen. They were the one animal who won their contest. They are feared because of their spells which allow a captured human to be turned into a herdman.

The Independants

The independants do not have an animal assigned to them. They herd cattle or goats but are still part of the Prax group.

Relations

Relations vary between the tribes from friendly rivalry to outright hostility. However all value the safety of Prax and have banded togeather many times through history to fight invaders. All tribes are opposed (to varying degrees) to Chaos.
