Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Nomad:

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Nomads are proficient with all simple weapons, plus any regional or racial weapons commonly associated with the nomad's milieu (see examples below). A nomad is also proficient with light & medium armor, plus small shields and bucklers.

Examples of Regional Weapons

Nomad Type	Weapon
Desert nomads	Scimitar
Steppe nomads	Composite shortbow
Arctic/subarctic nomads	Harpoon
Seafaring nomads	Net

Nomadic Loyalty: No member of the nomad's familial or tribal group will knowingly attack her, unless the nomad has been banished from the group. Furthermore, other nomads of the same regional or racial group will treat the character with respect, if not genuine good will.

Leadership: At 10th level, a nomad gains Leadership as a bonus feat, if the requirements are met. The limit to this feat is that the nomad can only gather followers from her own regional or racial nomadic type.
