'I heard that your son's birthday was late last moon. What did he get from you, my friend?'
'An army of his own. It is time for him to become a man and begin his own hegemony.'
- A conversation between the Trade Princes Tufael Rashad and Faisal Khamravi
Handjari are a caste in Tarkian society that has its power base in their great cities, wealth accumulated from trade, and ties to the priesthood of Inubis, the moon- and night-god of that desert realm. Professional soldiers organized into armies and warbands that were raised, trained, and employed by the Trade Princes are also called Handjari. These warriors are famous for being organized but also being able to take the initiative by themselves - specialist in skirmishing, light cavalry, and archery. Because of the close ties between the Empire and the Handjari Trade Princes, these soldiers can often be found attached to Imperial legions or garrisons.
Tark of the Riven Realms was inspired by ancient Middle-Eastern cultures and so when designing these soldiers, we knew that we will have to borrow heavily from real-world examples of warriors from those eras and areas. Lightly armored and armed with both melee and ranged weapons, these mobile, swift fighters will bring a different kind of challenge factor to Imperial fights. An alternative version of the enemy is the Tarkian Mercenary that you will see quite a lot of among other enemy hirelings and henchmen.
