The Maidens of the Spear, or Far Dareis Mai, are one of the many 'Aiel warrior societies'. They only allow women to join. As a member of the Spearmaidens, you receive certain benefits in combat due the intense training that they receive. Of course there are certain restrictions also, in addition to the normal restrictions placed on 'Aiel', the most notable one being that you cannot marry or be married while a Maiden. If you ever do get married, you will be forced to leave the Maidens. Also, if for some reason you become male, you will be bound and left exposed to the elements in the desert.
A particular skill of the Spearmaidens is Shan Dareis, also known as maidentalk, a kind of language that uses hand gestures instead of speech. Shan Dareis is not to be taught to outsiders, ever.
-= Aiel =-
The Aiel are a group of nomads that live in the great desert. It is said that they forgot their duty in ages past, which is why they must wander the desert, but nobody knows the truth anymore. The Aiel are divided into twelve different clans, each trying to outdo the other clans. As a result, the different clans are constantly at war.
Aiel are considered extremely deadly in combat. As a group, they follow certain ideas about what weapons can be used in combat. They will never use an item that is solely designed for war, thus, they will not use swords, polearms, crossbows, flails, or maces in a fight. Also, weapons that do not serve a purpose in hunting, such as axes and hammers, are not used in combat by the Aiel. Heavier armours are not worn normally, since it restricts their way of fighting, which consists of quick strikes and avoidence of blows aimed at them. This method is useless on mounts also, so they rarely, if ever, use them.
