If you were to add a tribe...

I would argue that there are no clans in Arm currently that have any 'savagery' to them. The Soh Lanah Kah come really close, but I haven't played one so I wouldn't be able to tell.

By savagery I mean willing to PK you..

I've always enjoyed the fact that Arm had a high turnover for PCs. You shouldn't see PCs living for years and years. Where's the danger? Unless you're a merchant that sits around in a compound (and even then) you should always be in danger on Arm, whether you draw the wrath of a templar, or the attention of the guild, far too many people live long lives these days.. sigh.

That's not what I'm talking about. Players that are out for easy pkills will always exist. I'm talking about legit badasses like the Blackwing that would roleplay with you. Show you how badass they are then kill if you don't high tail it out of the tablelands. Instead these days you get people spam chasing you, or trying to kill you with 3-4 others in an apartment. That's not badass that's just you showing how not badass you are by ganking someone.

I think my favorite raiding scene ever was the one where I was the raider and I had a whiran doing it. >.> Once the other player showed they were willing to roleplay out a scene, she even turned visible to sit and talk with him for a bit. She was banging a gypsy and the guy she held up had a live gwoshi so she demanded he let it go (if I recall right, it was Dregg, the mesh-scarred dwarf). That guy was so awesome, I'd had the chance to interact with him for a long ass time before it happened, over many different characters, but that hold up scene was probably my favorite, because you don't often enough see raiding scenes that people leave alive, in the post red fang game world.

The red fangs were also pretty damn great at raiding roleplay. They were badass enough motherfuckers not to feel threatened and gank for no reason, and that shit made them legend.

Ok, I get you, but it's not like every Soh is a complete badass with wonderful roleplay who gives great raiding scenes, and every city dweller is a complete twink. I've had ton more good PKs in the rinth than in the Pah but I guess that's because I like actual PvP instead of killing the same animal mob for the hundredth time and sometimes coming across an outsider who I have the perfect legit background lore to justify a kill for.

ie. generalizations are meh and creating player conflict out of actual roleplay is cool

Plenty of the Soh were whiny little bitches who I would not associate good raiding play with. But they were all right. It was good to have a tribe around trying to play 'average' desert elves. And now and then they'd have a cool group. By contrast, in almost ten years, I can't even remember a Sun Runner I respected. Sun Runners always had a gypsy vibe to them, as in - gee, better not mess with them, they have staff protection and overpowered code advantages. But that was more contempt than respect.

The only delves I remember being routinely impressed by were the Blackwing and the Red Fangs. Although, who knows how good the Red Fangs would've turned out if Abuzer hadn't done Arm a favor and committed genocide on the first unhappy trial batch of them.

Dune stalkers or whatever the fuck they were called...the guys with the little daggers around their throats, I remember as always trying to act badass but mostly being obnoxious. It was more a game of how many of them we could kill and collect their daggers rather than fear or respect.
