The Desert Ferans are a particular group of creatures. They solely inhabit the large desert, which they commonly call the Eternal Desert or the Great Eternal Desert, as the mountains range that surrounded the desert proves to be inhabitable and seemingly endless, where they gain the name of Endless Mountains. No Desert Feran has ever managed to reach the other side of the mountain range, due to several factors. The three factors is the lack of available water to mount a successful expedition, the number of dangerous animals that lives in mountains in a stronger and greater quantity and the physiological feeling of being forbidden to do so.
The Desert Ferans are primarily warriors by both nature and customs, and they are completely capable to fight off any threats, either animals or other Desert Ferans. The Desert Ferans themselves are made of different tribes that are nomadic in their search for water and food, primarily the former. Some tribes do go to war with other tribes and some tribes do trade with other tribes, depending on the tribe in question. Despite the fact they do fight and go to war with others tribes, the tribe leaders do have a pact with one another to come to the aid if a serious enough threat, I.E. one enough to threaten all of the Desert Ferans, be it a drought of water, a dramatic increase of dangerous animal raids, etc arises. Whether or not this still applies to the newly founded kingdom has yet to be shown as many tribes are still very uncomfortable with this break away from customs from the Duel Spear tribe.
The simple fact that they have not taken their old tribe name for the kingdom has prevented all out war against them from the other tribes. Despite the fact names are held in serious regards for the Desert Ferans, which will be discussed further down, they have named their tribes after their type of spear and is fully allowed to be discuss without risk of insult.
The issue of names is interesting to say the very least. A Desert Feran will never say their name out loud as they considered it to be the only thing that can never be lost to the Desert. Therefore, they see it that other Desert Ferans using their name as a loss to their only hold over the desert. It is the second worse insult a Desert Feran can give to another, save for shorting of their name. In that case, a battle to the death is nearly the only reaction, with one exception.
However, this is not to say they never share their names. Whenever two Desert Ferans of mature age, which will be discussed further down, wish to become husband and wife, they will need to share each other name in the front of a Desert Feran of elder age, which again will be discussed further down. They consider it a sign of true love when they allow the other to say their name shorten and not an insult.
The Desert Ferans have a concept of time, but it does not extend before identifying days as a separate thing events. There has been some notions of the moon showings several things as becoming bigger and smaller, but such talk is ludicrous… As such, the Ferans of the Eternal Desert uses four stages of age to determine growth. First is kithood, which ends when the Desert Feran becomes old enough to walk and talk. The next age is youthhood, which begins from when they can walk and talk to when they have finished maturing. During that time, they would have found their craft and begun their apprenticeship. After that is the maturehood, which last until they have begun to show signs of slowing down. After this is the last stage, elderhood, where the Desert Feran usually leaves his craft and tends to the kits of the tribe.
Due to their nomadic style, all Desert Ferans have duties and will look down on any that tries to shirk their duties. The duties are the same with each other tribe, excluding the special one tribe that does believes in a deity. As a side note, nearly of all of the Desert Ferans do not hold to any religious beliefs, after a long passage of 'sameness' that has brought nothing for them caused them to be disinterested. However, as mentioned, there is a single tribe that holds to a deity. This tribe is know as the Faith Tribe, made of ferans that have kept to the old ways of belief. Unlike other tribes, this tribe is mostly grown by deserters of other tribes instead of being born into the tribe. Another aspect of this tribe is that they have no weapons, but have are protected by other tribes that pass by. Usually in times of war, they are the hosts to talks between the warring tribes. While being the hosts, almost all the tribes try to ignore or brush aside their advice as it does involve their old deity', Xu, teachings .
The Desert Ferans themselves differ from tribe to tribe, but they have a usual body type of slender, tall and long, bushy like tails. They have grown used to not needing much water, a single drink a day would suffice for most, if not all. They are capable of quick speeds and quite durable in combat due to their hostile environment. The Desert Ferans has no written language, only telling their history orally.
