Yanda Spearmasters

Yanda’s spears strike fear into men’s mortal hearts.

Yanda was the name given to the White Huns by the Chinese scholars who came into contact with them. In the very early days, many did not differentiate between the Hephthalites and the more famous Huns but, as time went by and the White Huns’ empire grew in power and sophistication, the great powers became increasingly aware of both their differentiations and of the danger they presented. According to the Chinese, the eastern elements of the White Hun hordes eventually took up Buddhist practices and beliefs – albeit tempered with the influence of western religions (such as Zoroastrianism) picked up during their conquests
