Probably. This gives us something to worth with when coming up with more names though

DungeonDevil Wrote:As I noted in a previous thread the name Afridi comes from Afghanistan. The Khyber Afridis were perhaps the most famous of the tribes encountered by the British in the First and Second Anglo-Afghan Campaigns of the 19th century. The language of that place is Pashtu/Pakhthun/etc. If I were to develop those peoples more in my campaign I would turn to works that detail the Pathân tribes of Afghanistan.
Ecce liber!
Good idea
