1)Spear: The chosen weapon of this tracker.
2)Tantoo Stakes: Around his waist he had leather belt that usually held about eight stakes. These were not weapons instead he would plant them in the ground to guide the following hunting party on a trail. The stakes measured almost a foot long on his belt but would unfold to stand about three feet high. They were not permanent markers because of the shifting sands of the desert. The following hunters would collect the stakes as they came to them. The Tantoo Stakes came in three colors; red, blue and green. The red colored stakes issued a deadly warning. If found the hunting party would not continue any further. Across the top would be a number of knife blade notches that would tell the hunting party how far to travel to avoid the danger. This danger could be Sand Cobras or Death Pits for example. The blue stakes warned the party to continue but be alert, danger usually in the form of humans were in the area. The green stakes were markers that the hunters were on the right trail.

Born during the peaceful time of the FourWinds, Kigen had a fairly easy time growing up. Some of his best memories are of the hunts he and Kumo had trying to out do one another kills. They would keep hunting stronger and nastier creatures. His parents thought he would never grow up. Kigen and Kumo decided they were in no hurry and continued their playful ways for almost four centuries. They never shucked their duties, just had fun doing them. Then his sister, Sora recognized a young hunter from the NorthWinds, Tay. What made the event even more joyful were the two had already decided to become lifemates. In honor of the occurrence Kigen decided to present the couple with the skin of a Sand Cobra. A creature neither he or Kumo had ever killed. Of course, Kumo came with him. What a glorious kill! When the two proud hunters were returning to camp, with their prize, they could see black billowing clouds of smoke coming from the location of the holt. The skin was discarded, forgotten, as the twosome hurried toward the holt, sending all the way. Before they could reach it Onsha touched their minds and told them of the slaughter. Kumo who's lovemate and sister had been killed went almost crazy with grief and guilt. Kigen just dropped to the ground numb. His parents were both dead and Sora had been murdered from behind. She was found wrapped in the arms of Tay who had died from a blow to the head. Onsha warned the hunters not to return to the camp but to meet up with the tribe who were already on their way. Kigen found the tribe. His mind was so paralyzed with guilt that he did not recall the trek that got him across the desert. And when asked where Kumo was, he could not answer. Kigen cried out for his soul brother but received no reply. Kumo did not return to the holt.
