Esr Reidho
The Blood Riders are a nation of united Uruk-hai tribes that have mutated due to blood rituals done by the shamans of the tribe since the first blood ride. Like all Uruk-hai, the blood riders thrive off war and chaos. Unlike other Uruk-hai, the blood riders worship the blood gods. Through these rituals their skin has turned to follow the very gods they worship. The Blood riders make their home in the grasslands of Hhwecalan.
Structure
Within the Blood Riders are smaller tribes that each have a different purpose.
Wentos Reidho
The Wind Riders are a tribe within the Blood Riders that guard the borders the their territory. The Wind Riders are nomadic and travel the grasslands searching for trespassers. Favoring mounted units, the Wind Riders are fast and silent. Their faces are marked with a V.
Culture
The culture of the blood riders centers around their faith in the Blood Gods, his faith is seen in all aspects of their life. As their skin is red from the blood of their gods, they see themselves as being from one family. When a blood rider is slighted by another it is seen as a betrayal to their family. With this closeness to another, the blood riders see very little infighting. The only thing that holds high respect outside of the blood gods is a Blood Ride. For the warriors of the Esr Reidho, to die a violent death in a Blood Ride is the greatest honor.
Face Paint
The Blood Riders use face paint as a way to show status or what particular tribe they are from. The paint is made from a white powder that is easily found from a flower throughout Hhwecalan. The paint is often now worn in daily life, but if a Urhk-hai is to leave their village or to go out on a hunt they will paint their face. Before the gathering of the tribes face paint was used to recognize other tribes men and helped reduce accidental killings.
Spirits
The Blood Riders are a very spiritual people.
