-Often living outside of the city-states in small nomadic bands or in large underground tunnel complexes, there are as many sandtail tribes in the Aihtaraq Desert as there are stars in the sky. The nomadic tribes are often contracted as couriers as they drift along long, winding routes from city to city; much of Dahabu's nonmagical logistics is reliant on them.

   * To do it yourself is to do it with confidence. Sandtail tribes help one another, and it is considered wasteful and arrogant to try and try on one task, rejecting help, in an attempt to improve solo or prove a point.
