description= _ "Even in the absence of battle, infection and injury are common plights in the harsh desert sands. Dunefolk healers, in particular, require vast knowledge of herbs and medicine in comparison with healers of other races; the lack of magic combined with the meager plantlife in the desert results in great difficulty in treating the plethora of ailments and poisons that plague the dune peoples. Apothecaries are typically more knowledgeable and well-traveled compared to their less experienced brethren, but the title is usually applied to those who undertake the complex task of tending to valuable medicinal plants. The Dunefolk have no means of healing without the necessary materials, and thus Apothecaries possess a special role in supporting the remedial arts of their kind."

In doing so, these fleet fighters not only protect their vulnerable caravans, but pilfer the supplies of supposed raiders for themselves. When employed for warfare, Explorers no longer act only as scouts for probing enemies, but are skilled enough to be effective flankers or potent shock attackers."

In these scenarios, raw power is of little concern. The greatest importance is placed on speed—striking quickly, spreading as much chaos with their torches in the shortest time possible, allows these riders to get in and out of the blitz without any fear of counterattack. Raiders are the fastest of the Dunefolk, capable of outpacing nearly anything they might encounter in the sandy deserts."

description= _ "The push and pull of any battle requires varying degrees of offense and defense. The Dunefolk no doubt value offense as the greater of the two and focus their greatest efforts on training skilled swordsmen, but in any band of warriors, a small number of soldiers opt to trade in their sword and instead fulfill the vital duties of the Spearguard. Guarding crucial supply lines and vantage points, Spearguards are most often positioned slightly behind the main line and used as a supporting force or a deterrent to flanking attacks. Though these fighters tend to see less direct combat than their sword-wielding brethren, they are highly skilled with spear and shield and more than capable of repelling most advances."

description= _ "The power of any Dunefolk assault is inhibited by one major drawback: organized Dunefolk forces tend to be rather slow. Because of this, enemy forces often have the ability to regroup and call upon reinforcements, in which case a second assault becomes much more difficult. To combat this, Dune Striders exchange their rudimentary slings with heavy bolas, allowing them to slow retreating lines from the side and prevent a clean escape. The same tactic can be applied in the opposite scenario of a Dunefolk retreat; an advancing army can be hampered, allowing injured Dunefolk warriors time to recuperate. The danger of such a tactic is that despite their elusiveness, Striders are fairly fragile in direct combat and are easily taken down if left exposed."

In a situation that requires it, these horsemen possess enough skill with the bow to weaken enemy forces or pick off fleeing stragglers."

description= _ "In a direct clash of large armies, the Dunefolk commonly encounter either densely packed Shield Walls or heavily fortified enemy positions. Striking against these highly organized fronts can be quite challenging; an enemy formation might leave only small, brief gaps between shields and armor, while threatening a counterstrike with a thrust of spears and projectiles. Thus, Dunefolk swordplay places a heavy emphasis on power and more importantly, precision. A warrior might find only one chance to strike at an enemy, but an experienced Dune Swordsman is more than likely to seize the opportunity and make his strike count. Honing in with nearly unnatural accuracy, a contingent of of Swordsmen is enough to crack even the sternest of defenses."

Each Ringcaster picks a specific set of chakrams that suits them, whether it be rings with high uniformity for faster spinning, blades with a slight bit of wobble for unpredictability, or lopsided rings for curved trajectories. As different as each blade ring is coming out of the forge, each Ringcaster has a different fighting style to which their tools are tailored."
