Nomadic cultures


3.5/d20/OGL


Which nomadic cultures have been used alot as reference in all the D&D worlds? Or resembles nomadic culture from real world cultures?


If you mean cultures that have been referred to, there was the Mongol Horde in Forgotten Realms.

Sovereign Court

If you want to get 'old school', you might put the Flan tribes in Greyhawk in this category. In the Forgotten Realms, that honor goes to the tribes of the Shaar.


It's a little bit of a stretch, but aside from the Horde (which was pretty awesome) there was also the Viking handbook from 2nd edition. Not so much on the "nomadic" side of things, but lots of great ideas that nomadic cultures are likely to have. I'd say they were more of a raiding culture.


The Bedin in FR are based off of the Bedouin.
