The Sojourn

         The Sojourn is a tribe of peaceful and quiet people that value the tribe as family.They generally stay to themselves and when a celebration is not going on, things are always mellow and peaceful within the tribe. Martial arts are studied to calm themselves and become more within a person's base element of the four basic. The tribe provides a wide market for other tribes due to the fact that they rely on trade with other tribes for food, water, and other essential tools or materials.
          The Sojourn soldier (Rout) is based upon stealth and swiftness, because of they they wear very little armor. That one piece of armor is a single bracer on the non-dominant hand. Small piercing weapons are carried in several places and may be drawn at virtually any angle when closing a gap in combat. Each Rout must construct their own bracer before becoming one. A bracer generally is very flashy and obvious to show people who they are and what tribe they belong to. Routs are much more that just a soldier, they are the ones that make the trade worth it. They travel from tribe to tribe finding what is in high demand in each tribe. The bracer is important in these visits because it holds a rout's identity in a sense and shows all of the tribe that they are indeed there to either trade or discuss things like land rights. The rout has training in stalking and utilizing their bracer to close in fast to their opponent.
            The other job is a crafter. The collect materials and make them into anything needed for trade. The job is very simple and takes time but is the most important job and is essential to the tribe's success. Crafters carry trinkets that they make that symbolize their base element that they treat as just as important as a Rout's bracer. They make containers, clothing, cloth, shelter, rope and many man other things.
            Although each job is separate at the end of the day everyone goes off by themselves and has a short period of cool down then right after the sun goes down the entire tribe gathers in a circle around the fire for meditation to help them avoid being lost in their own mind while sleeping.
            The Sojourn is a very family-type oriented tribe. they value themselves and existence around them, they are a part of everything and everything is part of them.
