Editing Sigil:Uragh (section)

== War ==

The Uragh possess a formidable martial reputation, but warfare is not the organizing purpose of their society. Life upon the plains already rewards awareness, endurance, mobility, coordination, and the ability to respond quickly to changing conditions. Hunting and herding teach skills useful in war without making every hunter or herder a warrior.

Torrak give Uragh fighters mobility without dependence upon horses. Mounted warriors can scout, raid, pursue, screen larger forces, and cross familiar country rapidly, while foot warriors remain important whenever terrain or circumstance makes riding impractical. Spears, bows, blades, and other practical weapons are common. Uragh commanders understand movement particularly well because the logistics of moving people, animals, food, shelter, and equipment across the plains are problems their society solves constantly even in peace.

For all their martial reputation, most Uragh would rather bring a herd safely through winter than acquire glory in battle. Livestock must still be tended after the songs have been sung, children must still be fed, and damaged homes must still be repaired. A dead hero cannot mend a yurt.
