Driven out of Egypt a long time ago, these wanderers are the holders of the forbidden, descendants of the prophets. They read long forgotten languages, and signs as we would read a book. They see omens and portents more clearly than any other and are quite often advisors. They are the carriers of the soul beyond death.
