Brokash

Brokash is the smallest nation in the Sub Continent, filled with mountains and plains, the mountains providing an easily defended access to the land which has helped to maintain their independence. The Brokashi are divided up into several traveling clans, living a nomadic existence following herds of wild beasts and the Traveling forests. 
'''
Unique to the land are the forests, the trees seeming to move with the land, the Brokashi following them to maintain firewood and their arrows and halberds, each wood carefully tended to, to ensure that the health of the Forest for generations to come. 
'''
The clans of Brokash are fiercely independent, no true one leader leads the land, instead a tribal council of the various clans will meet to discuss trade, defense, and other issues that plague the land every year. These meetings have been known to devolved into infighting, but when a threat from the other nations comes they will band together. A key to their defense is that any foe they fight they take no prisoners, slaughtering all attackers no matter their rank and skill, leaving the dead at the border of their nation as a grim reminder for any ambitious lord who tries to invade.
'''
Brokashi are famed mercenaries, often hiring out their services to the other kingdoms, this in turn gives them wealth and access to resources not easily acquired in their land. Their services are well sought out for, their skills in battle being among some of the strongest in the area, many smaller kingdoms maintaining standing contracts with the clans in order to keep up a steady supply of these troops. Skilled horsemen and halbard infantry, the troops form a strong defense, the halberd troops defending while the horsemen with their bows herd the enemy into the waiting foot troops. Brokashi horsemen are typically lightly armed with a bow and lance, relying on their speed and skill with their horses to avoid blows. The halberdiers are more heavily armed, well trained to hold the line and deal devastating damage.
'''
Metal for many generations was extremely hard to acquire, this lead to a practice that has evolved into an almost religious cult, Called the Writ of Metal. Metal and in Turn Metal mages are seen with an almost religious significance among the Brokashi. All arrangements are written in metal, with minor agreements written in copper while major agreements are written are rarer metals. A Brokashi mercenary can be contracted for generations if gifted with Arcanium.
'''
While the lands of Brokash do have more ready access to metals now, the Write of Metal still is a strong tradition.
The most common magics in these lands stem from nature magic and earth magic, This is paired with their enchantments with runes on bows, pikes, and their horses, empowering each of these things.
