'''Description:''' The horse is all but unknown and unused in arid Petara. Instead, cavalry is drawn from the bedouin of central Petara ride, mounted archers who ride a shaggy breed of cool-weather camel into battle. Able to survive in the arid steppes, mountains, and badlands of inland Petara, the Camel is the perfect mount for the region. Against foes from the Mainland, the Camel Archer is no less fearsome, as camels are well known to have a smell that strikes terror into horses that skilled riders can use to their advantage.

Description: The horse is all but unknown and unused in arid Petara. Instead, cavalry is drawn from the bedouin of central Petara, mounted archers who ride a shaggy breed of cool-weather camel into battle. Able to survive in the arid steppes, mountains, and badlands of inland Petara, the Camel is the perfect mount for the region. Against foes from the Mainland, the Camel Archer is no less fearsome, as camels are well known to have a smell that strikes terror into horses that skilled riders can use to their advantage.
