Desert Wind

The Desert Wind was a bandit organization located in the Plains of Purple Dust during the mid 14th century DR.

Organization
The Desert Wind had roughly 350 members, most of whom were warriors equipped with leather armor or chain mail. They were ruled by Sheik Ar-Rabi who was served by his lieutenants Yasir and Mabad. Abu Jafar, a priest of Cyric, and Al-Warrakh, a wizard, aided the Sheik on raids.

Activities
The Desert Wind raided the scattered tribes of the Plains of Purple Dust and southern Murghôm.

Tactics
Bandits of the Desert Wind would force prisoners, and even lizards, to drink from the dangerous pools of the Grinning Skull until they discovered which pool was safe to drink from on that particular day.

Base of Operations
The Grinning Skull oasis served as their base of operations.
