Tiger Clans/Tiger Nomads

The Tiger Clans and Tiger Nomad Clans are large organised groups of Tiger Keidran found in the south-western rainforests of Mekkan which represent the majority of the free Tiger Keidran. There are allegedly five total diffrent clans of Tiger Keidran, varying from nomadic to sedentary cultures between tribes. Only one Tiger Clan has appeared so far in the main comics, that being the unofficially named "Edinmire Nomad Clan", which appears in Chapter 18.

Not much is mentioned about Tiger Keidran culture from the main comic itself however, a side sketch series centering around two Humans known as the "Tiger Explorers" exists to show life within the Tiger Clans. The extent to which the events of the "Tiger Explorers" is canon to the main comics is not clear, though all information about Tiger culture presented in the comics is confirmed canon by Tom, whether the actual events of the comic took place/will take place in the main comic canon is unknown. The side sketch series features the second of the five Tiger Clans of Mekkan, the unofficially named "Tiger Explorers Side Sketch Clan".

Appearances in the Comic
One of the five Tiger clans, the "Edinmire Nomad Clan", makes their appearance in Chapter 18 to meet with Human representatives from the Templar Order to discuss a possible alliance againced the Border Wolf Tribe Wolves.

 * According to the description accompanying the "Traditional Tiger Ceremony" side sketch Tiger the equivalent of wedding and marriage is very diffent than Human culture. Whether the ceremony depicted in the side sketch represents all five of the Tiger Clans is unspecified however, it is likely. Tiger Keidran marriages apparently begin by the local Tiger mage lighting a large bonfire with their magic, then couples proceed to walk through the fire together with the trust that the mage's flames will not harm them. Once the couple has emerged from the flames any clothing they were wearing will have been burned away, signifying them as reborn. The ceremony can also be used to accept newcomers into the Clan if their partner was not a member of said Clan originally, whether that be becuase they came from one of the other four Tiger Clans or were part of a non-Keidran species all together.

Trivia

 * During the current events of the main comic in the year 482 the Tiger Keidran seem to have a better relationship with the Humans than their fellow Keidran relatives. While the Dog Keidran are known to trade slaves with Humans, and some evidence on the offical Mekkan map suggests that Snow Wolves have an amount of peaceful interaction with Humans too, the Tigers were still the first group the Humans went to when gathering allies for their war agianced the Border Forest Tribe.
