Al-Badia

The term "Al-Badia" refers to the nomads comprising the wandering tribes of Zakhara, the Land of Fate. These people are driven by the constant need for food, water, and suitable land for their livestock. Life wandering the harsh land of Zakhara has transformed the Al-Badia into a hearty people, most being able to surive and thrive on meager sustenance. Poor by most common standards, the Al-Badia consider themselves to be the richest people throughout the Land of Fate because of their independence and freedom.
