your monastic tradition draws power from the harsh wind of the desert. You harness the power of the beating sun that drives the wind and the ever-building dunes. Through this, you find power and wisdom in the unending harshness of nature.

Many monks that follow this harsh tradition take on the appearance and personality of hard-baked earth: dry and abrasive. As they grow stronger, monks of the desert wind are followed by unseasonably warm breezes, their skin dries, and their skin shrinks until it clings to the bone.
