Kiroan Nomads
The nomads? I don't trust them too much. Not because they're, well, tieflings. But because they live every day under that hot sun. No secure shelter, not even of wood! I don't like thinking about that. They have to be mad.The Kiroan Desert lies along the southern borders of the Rhyliss Empire, a dry and hazardous area thought to have little inside of it to be of use. However, there are a variety of places and resources which can only be found within its borders - and hazards enough to keep outsiders from staying too long. Living within the desert are a group of nomadic tieflings who manage to sustain themselves quite well, even offering useful things from the desert as trade to outsiders.
The Kiroan nomads are largely hunter-gatherers, hunting the local wildlife and gathering what few plants survive. As merchant routes run from Rhyliss to Sebile, and the opposite, more attention begun to be paid to the desert. One trading caravan attempting to find a way to reach Lybermis easily found the nomads, and interest led to the formation of a semi-permanent trading post in the northern reaches of the desert. Through this, the existence of the Kiroan nomads became known to the outside world.
Since that time, the composition of the nomadic bands have changed slightly to include members of other species. Humans and elves have joined up and adapted to the lifestyle, bringing other talents and knowledge into the bands. The trading post of Chauclian has become more secure due to it, yet the old traditions remain.
