Camels (TCG)

Camels were riding animals and beasts of burdens used by the Moto family. Legend of the Five Rings - Roleplaying, p. 120 Camels were imported into the Empire by the Unicorn Clan when they returned from their eight-hundredyear exploration of the lands beyond Rokugan. Able to withstand extreme temperatures, sustain themselves by eating tough shrubs, and survive long periods without water, camels were useful work animals to the Unicorn Clan while they explored the Burning Sands and were swiftly domesticated. Camels were hardy and could be trained, but they were more stubborn and intelligent than horses and ponies, and required great patience to handle. The Unicorn used camels for their woolly fur (which could be spun into textiles) and milk, for carrying goods and other burdens, and sometimes for mounts or even cavalry, as they handled rough terrain better than warhorses. Camels tended to frighten Rokugani ponies and horses, making them effective counters to enemy cavalry. Path of Waves, p. 235
