War Shamibelian

From FiranMUX

A "war shami" is one of the typical Shamibelian soldiers that Firan soldiers encounter during War Season. In past years, their stats have been inflated. A Shamibelian soldier is, on average, significantly larger than a Firan, and stronger, but they lack the creativity and intuition a Firan has. They're generally not as smart, either.

Most Shamibelians prefer to fight with swords. They wear heavy armor whenever possible. In the great war, however, it is said that the mass of Shamibelian troops wore simpler armors like cured leather breastplates. The theory is that the troops garrisoned at the fort in Ellish are better equipped than normal shamis because they've had years to accumulate arms and the fighting force is relatively small compared to the enormous army that invaded the Clans decades ago.
