Society & Magic
Though the Children of the Desert were once gentle and accepting of fate, their travels have changed them. They have discovered a new, stronger metal than gold, and have replaced all their weapons and most of their jewelry with it. With their refined metal working skills they have developed a very fine, light chain mail that is most effective. The weapons that are most common are:
Sai's
Axes
Spears
Narrow, double edged swords
A staff with scythe blades on both ends.
Unique interpretations of these weapons are welcome.

They spend their nights {yes they live by night} learning and perfecting the sacred dances, unwilling to be caught by surprise again. They do have hunters/gatherers who train mostly in the later hours, after the hunting is done.

They eat mostly dried meats, cheese, fresh fruit & vegtables, and nuts, nothing to complicated that requires alot of preparation, except for when they hold one of their many 'celebrations' in which case all pitch in to create a varity of stews, meat stuffed pastries, and rich desserts.

Their clothing is mostly gauzy fabrics in medium to dark shades and sandles. When the dancers perform the full ceremonial dance they wear masks to protect their faces and hide their thoughts from their opponents, making it difficult to predict their next move, and what amounts to very fine chain mail bikini top and wrap skirt {fully covered  underneath of cource} and no shoes.

They are hardly weak in magic though they are nowhere near as powerful as the elves of DarkWind {of cource they don't know about the crystals}. Any one elf can have from 1 to 3 natural powers in addition to sending and bonding {which is a given in all the tribes}.

This tribe only consists of roughly 20 elves who are striving to regain a sense of themselves and a safe existance.
