War
The Ban Tuur are fierce nomadic animists that frequently skirmish with Titan’s Gate and the occasional tribe of wood elves. Most skirmishes in Titan’s Gate are usually raids done by young men trying to prove themselves as horseriders and archers.

The Ban Tuur and the V’ael elves have fought each other for centuries. Many tribes have fought over land with the wood elves, others who detest wild elves, and others who wage war with the drow in the night.

Currency
The Ban Tuur’s currency, Tang, is typically a copper piece shaped like a rounded rectangle with runes carved into it.

Weaponry
The Ban Tuur are renowned as incredible archers, rivaling elves in many respects. They do not use magic items and find crossbows laughable.

Trade
Tribes often isolate themselves unless it serves them to trade with others.

Language
The Ban Tuur speak their own language rather than Common as trade isn’t frequent in the local region.

Common slurs used against the Ban Tuur are “grass people”, “Steppe sons”, and “horse fuckers”.

Religion
The Ban Tuur horselords worship the power of the Basalt Throne, a volcano located on the border of the Ban Tuur Steppe and the V’ael, as their god Tuur. They both fear and venerate fire as the flame of their creation. They believe that Tuur created fire itself and gave it to the men of the Steppe, pulled flaming meteors from the sky so that humans could learn the riddle of steel, and that he lives in the mountain of his namesake.

They are rumored to have control over fire and bring devastation to those who cross them.

=Notable Tribes= The Kaeruts are a tribe sporting blood red clothing and red-brown horses, often merciful of elves.
