Daughters of the Desert

Daughters of the Desert are the order of mages of the Izir Desert, primarily of Azakkad, Alatheen and Izero.

Culture
In the Izir Desert tradition and culture is strictly enforced. Part of this tradition is the separation in career and position between men and women. Men typically hold more power than women as they are allowed to become soldiers, priests and politicians. For the most part women aren't given any power. However, women are the only ones allowed to use elemental magic in the civilisations of Izir. These mages are called the "Daughters of the Desert".

The Daughters hold a lot of sway over politics of Izir, in some places it is the only way for a woman to get respect. A representative of the Daughters is in the Sand Sea King's council in Alatheen, and several Daughters are part of Iribathilad of Azakkad's court.
