about a hundred miles south of genera are a small cluster of villages. these are the dwellings of the crysisari, a hunter gatherer dessert clan. the crysisari cannot find it possible to support themselves in the harsh conditions of the argoran wasteland, and as such are dependant on the traders that pass that way.
the traders themselves are fond of the crysisari, because they can trade for the purple marble like stones found in the areas where the clansmen live. these are treasured by the nobility of the central empire, and will fetch a high price in gar loren. this relationship has marked the crysisari villages on the map for trader caravans passing through to genera.
a high level of friendly competition is encouraged between the villages, each trying to grab the traders attention. although this can sometimes lead to fights between village members who are sure they "saw it first" , the militia are quick to break up any sort of trouble they come across.
the chief of the clan is a young kopa by the name of gehraald. he has only just been appointed as the cheif, and has been quick to seal deals with the Empire Consortium of Traders, supplying him and his clan with food and tools in exchange for vast quantities of the stones, which he sees as a waste of time. since he has come into power, the crysisari have found them selves in good fortune, and the emperor has even made a state visit, presenting gehraald with a " grand token of respect for services to the empire". what he meant was, " a wooden stick ", but beggars cant be choosers.
the knight contingent in the area is high, because the emperor wants to keep the stones safe from devanu attacks, wich are regular in the area.
the crysisari usually wear white to keep off the hot angoran sun. they make bandages from reeds that are found in clumps, wouch are picked and pressed into cloth. they then dye these long, stringy strips with white, and wrap them around the body. the wear belan leather strips on their feet to protect them from the scorched earth. the weapon of choice for the miltia is the axe.
hope this is all okay!
