From: Epic of Aerth Addenda, by Gregg Timm. Zulu (pg. 184) This tribal area consists of dry steppe and tall grasslands with arid desert and scrub to the north and west (these dry lands being the habitat of the nomadic bushmen). Acacia, baobob and candelabra trees grow here and antelopes, wildebeests, zebras, ostriches, giraffes, rhinoceroses, leopards, lions and elephants roam the area. Cattle and sheep are herded by the folk, and chickens are raised. The people mine gold, copper, tin, and coal. Fabulous diamonds are said to be found in a hidden mine somewhere in this region, and ivory is harvested as well. Kraal Sotho is more advanced than most outlying villages; it has a broad and deep moat surrounding the usual wall of thorn branches, its mud-and-grass walled dwellings have stone foundations, and a central cistern holds water for times of severe drought. The infantry are noted as fierce and accurate spearmen, and carry large shields. The indunas are the royal officials placed in conquered regions who are directly responsible to the king. |

Warthogs are found in the lands of the Zulu. They are hunted, and, considered a delicacy among the Zulu people.

Possibly, the least dangerous (and most stupid) monster on and in Aerth, the camptosaurus is deadly when frightened, as they will stampede (though a saving throw vs. death is permitted).  |

Note that Lesotho would roughly correspond to the southeastern area of Zulu. Mafeteng is a district of Lesotho.  |

The first 5 minutes are worth watching for a glimpse into the Zulu culture, and, what it might look like on Aerth.
