== V'iet == After years of guerilla warfare in the jungle, the Fire Warriors of the V'iet Sept are considered especially backward and uncivil by their brethren. It is rumored that they now hold the Greater Good in grim skepticism, eat and live alongside their Kroot auxillaries, and desecrate the bodies of their enemies. Without much contact or support from the colonies closer to the Tau homeworld, they have developed a way of life all their own, and a discipline of battle alien to the procedures sacred to most Fire Warriors. The V'iet set lethal booby traps in the jungles to wither down their Catachan adversaries; digging pits lined with spears, sedating Knarloc to be woken at key points, or packing old drones with explosives to be used as airborne mines. During and after every skirmish, won or lost, they gather the bodies of their own dead and those of their enemies so that the true number of casualities are known only to the V'iet, and later burn the bodies in a bizarre ritual devoted to a macabre parody of the Greater Good. Due to their apartness from the main Tau logistics, the V'iet are constantly having to reuse and fix old or broken equipment. Many of the initial and current arrivals of combat suits and gunships are stripped down for parts or weapons, and it is not uncommon to see a newly arrived Devilfish relieved of its armaments for infantry use, and its hull entrenched into the ground as a subterranean bunker, a new node in their intricate system of hidden tunnels and encampments. The V'iet are feared for their ability to ambush suddenly from the floor of the jungle and vanish back into the earth.
