Tomb-colonists

Tomb-colonists: technically, passengers rather than goods. But you'd never know it to talk to them.

The tomb-colonists are quite notorious for their unparalleled experience in many activities, such as dueling or chess. This makes them formidable opponents when challenged. The tomb-colonist dueling style favors well-practiced and precise forms.

Generally speaking, a person becomes a tomb-colonist by being thoroughly, thoroughly wounded; it's no wonder that many tomb-colonists are duelists or other daring individuals. Other tomb-colonists are simply people who became very, very, old. Being exiled due to age or injury is basically permanent, and people may become tomb-colonists (voluntarily or not) to escape their past lives for good. Due to their appearences, tomb-colonists may face social stigma in "polite" society.
