Vardazul od Tauros

Overview
Vardazul od Tauros or the Warband of Tauros in Common Tongue is a nomadic horde that roams the lands of Rathnir. The warband follows the religion of Tauros and are known to take Tauros' teachings more literally than other followers as they believe that the cataclysmic event, The Coming, will occur soon and it is their mission to destroy, cleanse, and rebuild the world in preparation for the ultimate manifestation of the God King and the Kingdom of Tauros.

Organization
The Warband has a very basic and loose command structure. The leader of the horde is the Ulu'Varikos which is the prophesized great conqueror who will raze the world in preparation of the Coming. Under the Ulu'Varikos are the Hoplides which form the horde's military and main workforce.

As nomads, the Warband will constantly be relocating and shifting targets. An exception to this are the underground Groves which serve as the horde's permanent safehouse and origin point. Groves are found in lush biomes such as forests and jungles and have few markers on the surface. Beneath the surface however will be found an extensive and lush cave network.

Religion
The horde are devout and fanatical followers of Tauros. They see the world as a perfect place for the materialized Kingdom of Tauros which will only come about with the destruction and cleansing of the land through forced terraforming. This terraforming is to take place on their known world, Rathnir, which is seen as a barren inhospitable wasteland.

Language
Vardazul od Tauros use the recently rediscovered Qib language in most of their writing and formal naming. Most followers of Tauros use the language, but the Warband uses it more extensively seeking to revive the long dead Qib culture which died out thousands of years ago from hostile merging cultures. The exact origin point of the language and culture is unknown, but the horde also seeks to find the remnants of the dead civilization to fully revive the culture.
