Palador

Palador is a mountain village located deep within the Dusk Mountains. According to Bird, Palador Tanks are the greatest Tanks in the world. While it seems few Palador Tanks have ventured outside of their village, Wiz noted that he had come across Legendary Tanks from previous Eras in his studies that were said to have hailed from Palador.

History
The origins of the Palador tribe are unclear. However, it is theorized that they were a nomadic tribe that were eventually forced out into the Dusk Mountains after the expansion of modern kingdoms.

Culture
The lifestyle of the Palador tribe revolves around the hunting of the Raid Beasts that dwell in Dusk Mountains. These include the Glacial Mammoth, the Polar Fowl, and the Frozen Ram.

Their hunting groups are split into male-female pairs. The males in Palador traditionally take on the Tank role while the females take on DPS. Thus a common saying is that a Palador man is steady and cool like moving water, while a Palador woman is fierce and passionate like hungry flames. Healers can be male or female and the role is often taken by more experienced members of the tribe due to their crucial importance in hunting parties.

A distinctive feature found in those born in the Palador tribe is a gradient color in their hair. They also adopt tattoos on their cheeks (triangles for males and ovals for females) once they have come-of-age and begun adulthood.

The Palador tribe is led by their Chief, who is typically the wisest member of the tribe. In addition, the tribe also selects a Raid Leader from among the warriors and this person is given similar authority and status as the Chief. While Raid Leaders are elected by the tribe, the Chief title is handed down by the current Chief to a candidate of their choosing. Should the Chief be unable to successfully hand down the title, the next Chief is then elected.
