Qerel Tribe

From Final Fantasy XIV Online Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Qerel are one of the Xaela tribes from the Azim Steppe, who normally occupy a permanent encampment in The Towering Still. Although in-game they have few representatives, their history and mysteries play an important role in the story of the Warrior class quests for levels 60-70, plus an additional quest at Level 80.

The nature of the tragedy which befell the Qerel is unclear, but some claim that their settlement was destroyed by a group of exiles who declared themselves the Chaghan. Regardless of its veracity, the tale serves as an example of the harsh fates which may befall any given Xaela tribe.

— Encyclopedia Eorzea vol 2, page 097, "Qerel Iloh."

The warriors of this tribe all wear complete suits of armor crafted from the bones of steppe tigers which they kill with their own hands upon their coming of age.

— Encyclopædia Eorzea vol 2, pg. 110, on the Qerel.
