Tent, Dome

Low hemispherical shelter; resists wind and sheds rain from all angles.

A hemispherical shelter of oiled linen stretched over a light frame of bent wood, its low profile resists wind and its rounded walls shed rain from every angle. The door is a sewn flap that cinches closed. Merchants and mercenary companies favor domes for their stability and ease of setup; three soldiers can raise one in a quarter hour.
