Further Game Information on Rhennee
Rhennee have good Strength: take best three of 5d6 for males, best three of 4d6 for females. Rhennee wear leather armor at all times, although one or two suits of chain mail may be kept on a barge and worn if the Rhennee are going ashore with the intention of fighting (e.g., pursuing a feud). The larger barges have ballistas, and all barges have 3-6 (1d4 +2) heavy crossbows on board. All the people on board are trained in the use of light crossbows-even children over the age of 8 (use 1d12 to determine the age of children)-and all have daggers also. Each guard may have a battle axe (70% chance), and will carry either a long sword or a broad sword (50% chance of each). Barges will also have 2d6 spears and 1d4 harpoons on board.
Rarely (25% chance for a Rhennee barge group), a Rhennee bard will accompany a group. The bard will be of neutral alignment, and will be of level 2-9.
In addition to trade and transport, Rhennee make some little money from craftwork (sailmaking and repair, cloth making, etc.) and fishing.
Finally, on rare occasions outsiders who perform some important service for the Rhennee, or who have valuable skills and gain an exceptional reaction from them, may be treated as "honorary Rhennee" and given some token of this fact. Future reactions from Rhennee will be at + 10 to + 25 (depending on the nature of the service, the status of the Rhennee for whom the service was performed, etc.).
