Day 15 Tundra Scout
The Tundra Scouts of the northlands are the first-line protectors of their people. As scouts, it is there job to find, and identify threats to their land. But they are also skilled merchants and traders, and are a mix of soldier, spy, gate keeper, ambassador and businessman. Above all, Tundra Scouts are survivalists, living in some of the coldest and harshest conditions- from flat plains covered in semi-thawed earth of lichens and hearty grasses to glaciers, with gaping crevasses and hidden dangers. Their steeds are not only conditioned for the cold, but are intentionally protected from the harsh conditions with fur and quilt armor that keeps the horses warm and dry.
