NOMAD (1986)
Those of human blood have adapted to a wide variety of climates and terrains.
They may choose no more than one "background edge", signifying the environment
in which they were raised. Rangers and druids may not choose these edges, as
their class abilities largely supercede all of them.
Humans and half-humans with the Nomad edge grew up in one of Thera's deserts.
They move through deserts more easily, and know how to shield themselves from
the chill of the desert's night as well as the scorching sun of its day. They
enjoy a small resistance to the Whirling Simoon spell and commune. However,
if
they should find themselves in exceedingly cold and snowy terrain, they suffer
from the frost more than most.
