Pyroi Hunting Parties

The hunting parties of the Pyroi not only provide food, but also serve as defenders against those threats that fight with fang and tusk rather than spear and scimitar. The hunting parties are loved by most. When they stop to gather supplies, they are generous with their game, which often serves as the basis for joyous, flame-lit feasts. You may find, if you ever have cause to visit the red shard, that the hunters largely eschew the sculpted headpieces and other finery often associated with the Pyroi, instead dressing themselves in furs and leathers.

The casual observer may consider the hunting and gathering tendencies of the Pyroi to be a mark of technological incompetence, or at least an inability to grasp agriculture (in whatever stunted form that would take on this blasted waste of fire geysers). Nothing could be further from the truth. The effort required for agriculture on Pyre would be unimaginable, and for a yield so paltry that any Folk so invested would deserve their demise. It is also a fact that the Pyroi people are entirely carnivorous. Although they certainly enjoy the non-meat foods of far-off lands when traveling, the Pyroi can subsist on nothing but meat and water indefinitely. This also accounts for their pronounced canines and unending fixation on the hunt.
