    The Azghari Warband

 

    When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come.” I looked, and behold, an ashen horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hell followed with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.”

The Azghari Tribe is a band of nomadic peoples hailing originally from the lands of Vailor where they roamed the empty valleys and plains. Known for their proficiency in horse riding, they are feverous warriors and skilled craftsmen. Initially, the Azghari people worshipped the eternal blue sky and Tengri, however over-time they renounced their pagan ways and adopted the Imam e Rashidun faith. Azghari scholars and members of the ulema interpreted the faith in their own way and have minor adaptations and as well as cultural elements incorporated into their belief. 

   

The Azghari possess an intriguing distinction in their eyes that is seen through the colours of brown, green and blue. Their hardihood is evident in their wild appearance, and they are beings who are cruel to their children on the very day they are born. For they mark a cut on the males with a sword, so that before they receive the nourishment of milk they must learn to endure wounds. They are tall ain stature, quick in bodily movement, alert horsemen, broad shouldered, ready in the use of bow and arrow, and have firm-set necks which are ever erect in pride.

 

A travelling band, these nomads are oft on the move and rarely stay in the same place, the constant need for migration being a requirement for their herd in order to graze. The Azghari do not settle - fast moving horsemen that stay for only short times in a single place. Every member is expected to sustain themselves by their own tools, hunting game and slaying prey to feed them. Members of the tribe are encouraged to engage in enterprise and trade as well as craftly pursuits to provide value and income to the tribe. Slavery is accepted by the Azghari, and a man is judged on how many slaves he has taken. For those who are taken in bondage, freedom can only be earned by hard coin or valour shown in the Warband’s service - freeing them to fight as any other rider. For the wealth that is gathered in battle, every man receives an equal portion - the Warband knows no boundaries to brotherhood.

 


 

- The tribe follows a traditional Beylik leadership structure. The tribe is headed by a Beylerbeyi who is then accompanied and supported by other Beys who each command respect and power in their own right. The Beys act as a council which steer the direction of the tribe. Although ultimate authority lies with the Beylerbeyi, the society is heavily reliant on respect and as such disregarding the advice of the Beys can create rifts and internal disputes within the tribe.

 

- Legal proceedings in the tribe are overseen by an ‘Alim’ who is a prominent scholar of the Imam e Rashidun faith and uses religious text and guidance to oversee the justice in the tribe.

 

- The tribal income drives from their skilled craftsmen and women who create rugs, pottery and garments with unique designs. This is supplemented by income achieved through raids.

 


 

OOC: The aim of this group is to portray a realistic tribe, we intend on developing this from a nomadic tribe into a settled government. We aim to provide a mixture of roleplay and PVP elements to our members, however a heavy emphasis is placed on high quality roleplay. 

 

If you are interested in filling a position of leadership within the tribe, please feel free to forum PM me.

A Kadaksleri rider returned to his Qan with news of the resurgent Azghari. Consulting with his Imam amidst the haze of smoke and hashish that choked out the interior of their catir, he spoke tersely. "Yet more günahkar who defy the words of the Prophet and eat up the lies of Iblis and his demons. Let us remain true in our prayers, and hope our wayward cousins find Ilah sooner than they find the tips of our lances." @Hephaestus

‘TWIXT the livid veil of which long occupied the smog-laden yurt thusly, so could the nude eye discern the profile of one Kadaksleri ecclesiastic, mounted about juxtaposing frays and fair measures of lavish fleece, positively bedecked and embellished by ornaments and the like. A meagre frame at an instance hereto, he bade time ‘ere he relinquished the lame of his disposition, accoutred with ever modest a count of raiments — ‘till his toils and scrutiny amounted to but a trifling animation: managing yield of the hashish hook, whither it prior clung with sacerdotal devotion o’er the visceral tissue of his lips. Wreathen ‘round and girding his cuff, he moored the cord to coeval laps, abasing the thing which espoused incense heartily; even he deigned bob his burgonet some, in congruence with the words of his kinsman, eschewing digits of the contours branded about his torso to sieve a nugatory several coils of his flaxen mane, which besmirched the fair of his countenance prior.

 

“Verily, we shall, ah — pray penance on the ill-begotten; for, trust and believe, our demiurge is one of candour and forgiveness, most certainly.”

 

WAXING, hereby managed some tract of ire which dwelled to the catacombs of the viridescence of either iris. He harkened the words of his equestrian brother, surmising some slur of liturgies in a bout of ardent piety:

 

“Should all else serve for naught, however, woe betide, it would not be without warrant that we displace them, from their navels to their chops, and mount their scalps upon our battlements. I would hope matters not degenerate, even they would amount to that practice, however. Ilah Boyükundür.”

I hate to do this to my favourite Scot. Best of luck!

Love to see more Asiatic tribes.
