Suq'Ata is is a nation of arabic traders, led by a royal house. The name is derived from Suq meaning market. The Suq'Ata originally came from the plane of Rabiah. They settled and built cities reminiscent of their distant home. They began to build a trading empire, and soon had caravans traversing the huge continent of Jamuura in search of valuables and profit. They annexed the mountains of Femeref bordering Zhalfir after hearing tales of mineral wealth deep within the mountains. While this mercantile society was well-versed in spells, treasure and artifice, with them came also one of the oldest arts on Rabiah- The Way of the Assassin. Within the modern cities of Suq'Ata there exists a network of secret guilds wholly devoted to murder. Using spells of summoning, fear and mind-numbing cold, the assassins of Suq'Ata seek not to defeat their opponents outright, but to poison them over time in a variety of insidious ways. After the end of the Jamuuran war, Suq'Ata appeared to be unchanged, except for the remaining presence of the Breathstealers. These Urborg assassins are insinuating themselves into Suq'Atan society, and although silent, these killers may be an even greater danger to the noble Suq'Atan than Kaervek's armies. This is made manifest by the murder of Qhattib, Vizier of Amiquat which freed the way for the brute Telim'Tor to succeed the Pasha.
