Kargarim

None of all the tribes of Aharian speech is so large or dominant as the Kargarim of Kargagis Ahar. The Kargarim are a warlike and semi-nomadic people occupying a huge amount of square miles of the land known as Kargagis Ahar, where the various leaders of the tribes, move their small khanates through the grasslands of the vast plateau.

Society and Culture:
The roots and customs of the Kargarim are most similar to those of the ancient Talatherim of the first age. The Kargarim are those who have less mutated and have been less influenced by other cultures, and have remained faithful to their tribal roots, warring among themselves and the peoples of neighboring cultures like the Linerim, the Adek and the Shay of the southeast. Their horses are well known for their strength, although not as powerful as the horses of their Rycoli cousins​​.

During the winters they travel south, where the heat and grasslands remain abundant, and during the summer, they invade the lands of the north, and even have dared to venture beyond Talathrant on numerous occasions.

The Kargarim can be divided into two major factions: The Numahar and Kargarim itself. The first are named after the Talathrant's tributary river of the same name, and many have turned away from nomadism to settle in the fertile valleys around the river, and have even mixed with Cheyan and Chyan people from Chy and Chey Sart. While Kargarim continued their semi-nomadic life traveling across the vast pastures of the plateau. The Kargarim riders travel in large and small companies dominated by a leader called "Sey".

The only big city of Ahar Kargaris is Delik Kizil, near the center of the plateau, where companies come to trade their spoils of war without resorting to violence, and to buy furs and inks.

Appearance:
The Kargarim are gray-skinned, with dark eyes and tall for the standards of the Easterlings. Some of the Kargarim still have the tradition of his predecessors to braid their hair and dye them purple or red. Most of them are beardless. They use leather as clothing, and generally purple and red tones.

Warcraft:
Their unusual warfare tactics, make of them a formidable and very hard to beat opponents. Even the powerful Khudriag Ôvatha Ito, "the horseslayer", fell to the forces of the Kul-Ahar in the Battle of the Tombs of Grass during the Second Variag Wars in Chey Sart. Its main strength lies in the speed of their horses, archers and crossbowers of short range, but also they use throwing spears, throwing knives and whips. They are not very likely to fight over short distances and melee, and usually a Kargarim prefer to attack and to flee for his enemies think they are fleeing and make them go on their chase, which ends disarming their ranks and making archers penetrate the defenses and shoot arrows at any target that moves. This tactic has given the Kargarim important victories, especially against the Variags and Cheyans oppressors.

The Kargarim and the Numahar were the foundators of the confederation known as the Kul-Ahar that integrated all the tribes of the descendants of the Ahar of the second age.
