Successfulraids can benefit a community by bringing in valuable booty, as well as wives or slaves. Likewise, any group must be able to hold whatever it wishesto keep, or see its people and valuables divided among those stronger and bolder than they. While not the classical war of castles and armies aspracticed in the southern lands, this guerilla warfare nonetheless calls for men and women capable of understanding the battlefield and seeing howbest to apply the forces at hand. These men and women are the war leaders of their clans and tribes.A war leader may lead a independent war party, in which case he is the supreme leader of his group—so long as his followers remain convincedof his ability to lead them to victory or fortune. Or his war party may be a part of a larger tribal community, in which case he will be responsibleto the tribe as a whole. As a popular war leader he will of course command a certain amount of influence, which again will last only as long as hemaintains his ability to attract followers to his party.The war leader described here has passed his physical prime, and seen some of his abilities start to decline. He retains his personal charisma andhis understanding of the battlefield, and by dint of his seniority and experience, is better armed than many of those who would follow him, havingacquired weapons of the quality commonly available in the lands south of the Wall.9PersonalGearClothing (fine furs), hide armor, shield, battle axe, spear,knife, garron with saddle and tack95

The scout serves as the advance eyes of the war or hunting party,ranging far afield from the main line of travel and returning to report on the lay of the land. As a part of a more sedentary community the scoutcan serve as a picket, providing advance warning of incursions, or as a hunter, supplying the village with game. In any case, the scout must havea broad and balanced skill set, to be able to operate independently for days at a time, living off the land and surmounting challenges on his own.Though he may be something of an outsider, the scout knows the value of the community, and from bitter experience the consequences of beingalone in the wild.
