Njerpez

Njerpez, sometimes known as 'those annoying men in red' or 'archery targets', are the raiders from the east. According to the lore, they most frequently attack the Kaumolainen; however, their camps can be found all over the Unreal World. They are armed with iron weapons, as well as ranged weapons, making them a large threat to new players. Njerpez can be encountered by themselves, wandering around the world map, and this is the most common way of finding them. However, it is also possible to encounter large roving bands of Njerpez, which are very dangerous.

Njerpez are not armoured, only wearing standard fur, leather and cloth clothing. They often wield axes, spears and swords, usually the Njerpezilais scimitar.

Njerpez camps are shown with a 'three tent' icon on the world map. As of v3.12b, the Njerpez have their own area of influence, by default purple, which is in the far eastern portion of the map. Camps spawn outside of the Njerzpez territory and can appear anywhere on the world map.

Njerpez villages and camps are sometimes fortified with a wall of fences, and have their own shops. There are rarely saunas in them. Inside the villages, you can find Njerpez craftsmen, maidens and housewives, in addition to Njerpez warriors. All NPCs in the area will attack on sight, even usually passive ones such as foreign traders.

If the player manages to kill all Njerpez of a village or camp the zone of influence will vanish. Note that some roaming Njerpez may be associated to a camp or village. If the player killed all Njerpez in a camp and the area is still purple on the culture map there usually is one (or more) roaming Njerzpez left to kill.
