Editing Steelfur Tribe

The '''Steelfur Tribe''' is a well known [[Gnolls|Gnoll]] tribe.

==Overview==
The Steelfur Tribe is a newly-founded and traditionalist Gnoll tribe. It is famous for the metal fur of its members, granted by their Chieftain's Skill.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/11/25/interlude-the-tribes-of-izril/ Interlude - The Tribes of Izril]</ref> They are a powerful tribe, one of the better tribes at combat and warfare because of this skill. 

They sell this fur and make light armor out of it. Their Steelcloth is heavier than leather, but a bit lighter than actual chainmail and more flexible. It's a bit weaker than actual steel.<ref name=":0" /> <ref name=":5" />They rarely offer trade concessions to any tribe but the larger ones.<ref name=":2">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/10/27/8-49-m-revised/ Chapter 8.49 M]</ref>

== Background ==
The tribe was founded upon the Skill of [[Iraz Steelfur]]. They were founded on Mount Semis, where Steelfur warriors hone their bodies and their climbing skills.<ref name=":1">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/07/13/8-30/ Chapter 8.30]</ref>

==Chronology==
At the Meeting of the Tribes, Steelfur warrior came to aid members of the Decles Tribe when they objected to a [[Inkar|human]] entering the inner camps. Iraz Steelfur, along with other Chieftains of the tribes involved, came to put a stop to the fighting.<ref name=":5">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/01/17/8-02/ Chapter 8.02]</ref>

Iraz and Steelfur later had a debate with [[Werri]] and the [[Woven Bladegrass Tribe]].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/02/24/8-10/ Chapter 8.10]</ref>

Adetr Steelfur, through use of his Skill on [[Rose]], learned about Earth, and the information then had to be shared with Iraz before it was revealed to the other tribes.<ref name=":1" />

Iraz went to discuss a trade agreement with Chieftain [[Mrell]] of the Demas Metal Tribe.<ref name=":2" />Later, Iraz, Adetr, Werri, Feshi, [[Garsine Wallbreaker]] and Chieftain Reizet of [[Az’muzarre Tribe|Az'muzarre]] questioned Rose and discussed the potential threat posed by Earth.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/interlude-satar-revised/ Interlude - Satar (Revised)]</ref>

When the [[Drakes|Drake]] armies advanced on the Meeting of the tribes, Steelfur split their forces to engage on different fronts, north and south.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/02/23/8-66/ Chapter 8.66]</ref>The defense in the north was successful, but the one in the south failed.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/02/27/8-67/ Chapter 8.67]</ref>

When a [[Mrsha|white Gnoll]] was discovered at the Meeting of the Tribes, the Steelfur Tribe minus Adetr sided with [[Plain’s Eye Tribe|Plain's Eye]]'s stance that Doombringers should be killed.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/13/8-79/ Chapter 8.79]</ref>When the fighting started, they attacked the tribes that had chosen to protect Mrsha.<ref name=":3">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-83/ Chapter 8.83]</ref>When the Drake armies attacked, Chieftain Iraz was slain by [[Manus]]' Dragonspeaker [[Luciva Skybreath]], taking away the metal fur from every tribe member save Adetr.<ref name=":4">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ Chapter 8.85]</ref>

==Strength==
As the warriors of the tribe have metal fur, it makes them more resilient in battle. Plus they wear cloth made out of said fur on top, giving them further defense. While not nearly as strong as the greatest tribes, they have been a thorn in the Drakes' side.
