Tribes of Opheria

The United provinces of Opheria • Very Tribal • Heavy Arab influence • Every so often a new speaker for the tribes is chosen they lead meeting and gatherings Laws and politics generally are managed on a tribe level     Below is a direct rip from WOT   • Black Eyes (Seia Doon) ○ Seia Doon are often used in the questioning of prisoners, as well as Far Dareis Mai. The Black Eyes are specialists in fighting during the twilight hours, and are excellent at finding their way in little to no light.   • Brothers of the Eagle (Far Aldazar Din) ○ The Brothers to the Eagle are scouts, much like Far Dareis Mai, except that they excel at scouting areas that are more rigid. Often they are used to scout areas along the Dragonwall, and other mountainous regions in the Three-fold Land.   • Dawn Runners (Rahien Sorei) ○ The Dawn Runners are often used by Sept and Clan Chiefs as the first to attack, or many times are most able to change the 'front' of the battle into an area seen as more favorable to their Chief.   • Knife Hands (Sovin Nai) ○ The Knife Hands are often considered the best hand to hand combatants of the Aiel, it is said that one of the most interesting spars found among the Aiel are two Sovin Nai fighting with only hands and feet. Some have even been known to prefer fighting in this manner, and leaving spears as a last resort in the Dance.   • Maidens of the Spear (Far Dareis Mai) ○ Far Dareis Mai, the Maidens of the Spear, is an Aiel warrior society that only accepts women, as opposed to other all-male Aiel societies.   • Mountain Dancers (Hama N'dore) ○ The Mountain Dancers excel at combat that occurs in mountainous regions, they are most capable of using the mountainous terrain as an advantage, rather than its typical disadvantage. Often times, they are involved in hunting along the Dragonwall, or even assaulting a flank near a mountainous region.   • Night Spears (Cor Darei) ○ The Night Spears are generally used as night guards on encampments, and on holds. While it is true that all Aiel guard in turn, the Night Spears often excel at such duties, and thrive on the opportunity to do so, to a point they will occasionally insist on protecting holds and encampments.   • Red Shields (Aethan Dor) ○ The Aethan Dor act as police among the Aiel and often serve as thief-catchers.   • Stone Dogs (Shae'en M'taal) ○ Shae'en M'taal are often used as rear guards. They also vow not to retreat once battle has begun and will perish to the last to meet this vow.   • Thunder Walkers (Sha'mad Conde) ○ The Thunder Walkers are generally used by Chiefs as reinforcements wherever they may be needed. Often they will be put into spots of apparent weakness in the flanks to defend, or added power to opposing flanks that appear to be on the verge of falling.   • True Bloods (Tain Shari) ○ The True Bloods are very secretive about what their specific purpose is. They do, however, excel at many things, they will scout, they Dance well, but many, particularly the newer members seem to have a need to prove themselves to the other warrior societies, as good warriors. This is assumed to be due to the obscurity of the specific purpose the True Bloods serve to the Clan Chiefs.   • Water Seekers (Duadhe Mahdi'in) ○ The Water Seekers are adept at locating hard to find water in the Three-fold land, and are best at getting meat from dead animals and using that meat to create palatable meals from them. They also are well trained in discerning the difference between dangerous plants, and edible ones.
