Life out in the Thirsty Desert is really harsh. With barely any rain or soil to grow crops, and a lack of other natural resources, tiny desert villages can be really terrible places to live. Because of this, many people living out in the desert only have the choice of thievery as a way of living. They prey on unsuspecting travelers crossing through the desert: hiding behind dunes planning an ambush, then making a quick strike to grab the loot. In most media, they're dressed in turbans and veils that both protect their faces and conceal their identities. They mostly appear either in Arabian-style stories, or as a Fantasy Counterpart Culture of Arabian cultures. The American Wild West variation is also fairly common; they tend to wear black hats and bandannas around their mouths for the same reason as Arabian veils. Guaranteed to show up in any Desert Punk story. Sometimes related to, and sometimes contrasted with, Bedouin Rescue Service. |

Quest for Glory II has the Desert Brigands, who are pretty much that game's goomba. True to the Arabian Nights-inspired setting they wield scimitars and wear turbans (and throw daggers at you in the Fan Remake). A band of these guys assaulted and raped Julanar after luring her into the desert by pretending they were in need of a healer in the back story for one of the sub-quests. | |

Genshin Impact: The region of Sumeru introduced a group called the Eremites. While they hail from the desert, they can also be found in the rainforest. Deyha used to be a member of a faction of Eremites, but her character quest reveals that she was actually from the rainforest, and that the faction adopted her after her parents were killed by another Eremite faction. | |

In Dune, the Fremen would raid Harkonnen patrols and spice harvesters and extract their water (including that in the personnel). But the real reason for those attacks was to keep them from stumbling across the Fremen's secret terraforming operations. | |

The Fire Emblem games tend to have a Running Gag where there is a desert level spent fighting bandits who are led by a pair of twin brothers who are palette-swapped versions of each other. One desert level where it doesn't have the bandit twins is the desert barbarians in Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem. Normally, they wouldn't be much of a threat for Marth and his company, had they not brought their much more dangerous wyvern pets. The Kingdom of Plegia in Fire Emblem: Awakening is surrounded by mass desert. They make much of their time pillaging and harassing its neighbor Yllise. In Fire Emblem Fates, Tarba is a bandit that leads a group where he ambushed Ryoma's son, Shiro. In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, there are a bunch of thieves in Claude's paralogue, "The Sleeping Sand Legends." They are seen robbing the desert of its treasure when they were dragged into a fight by Claude and the desert's guardian, the Wind Caller aka Saint Macuil. Killing them before the Wind Caller's phantom guardians will net you their contents. |

The D'regs from the Discworld series (who feature prominently in Jingo) are bandits who harass the merchants in the deserts of Klatch. Although they're honourable enough to provide a Bedouin Rescue Service to anyone who's lost in the desert (rather than simply travelling the roads) and pragmatic enough to avoid killing the merchants or robbing them too often (if they force them out of business, who would they rob?). | |

The Urutan-Yensa from Final Fantasy XII look like the Bedouin stereotype (sort of... they're hermit-crab men) but their motive appears to be less thievery and more making sure no one else sets foot in their territory. | |

Most of the bandit raiders in the Borderlands series are found in the desert, setting up various shantytowns and hovels to wait out opportunities to rob, murder, and worse. Later games would introduce bandits in desert equivalents such as the empty, airless/waterless expanses of the local moon. | |

The Gerudo race from The Legend of Zelda, starting in Ocarina of Time. They are a vaguely Arabian-style race of women (and one man) who live out in the desert and work as thieves. In The Wind Waker, this actually forms part of Ganondorf's stated motivation to take the Triforce, as he initially envied the prosperity of Hyrule as opposed to the harshness of the desert. By the time of Breath of the Wild, they have abandoned their thieving ways and are now a tribe of merchants instead. | |

RuneScape's Kharidian Desert is one of the only places where bandits can be found. (Elsewhere, they're more likely to be labeled "thieves", "rogues", "highwaymen", or the like.)

In Bug Fables, the bandits are very common enemies in the Lost Sands. They all wear hoods and are capable of stealing the player's items. In Chapter 4, they ambush Team Snakemouth in their hideout and attempt to sell them out to the Wasp Kingdom, but wasps refused to uphold their end of the deal, so when the team defeats Astotheles, their honorable leader, he allows them to go and grants them one half of the key to the Ancient Castle in hopes that they will defeat the wasps. | |

Photon: Three bandits waylay the lovestruck Aun en route to her idol, Laman, in the trackless sandy desert. They also have a weapon that can drop boulders on people, and decide to dispose of Aun with it after taking the Sacred Object from her. (Her brother, Photon, saves her.) These three bandits appear again later, cornering Princess Lashara against a rock wall where the desert gives way to the edge of town. Once again, Photon appears to make short work of them. | |

The bandits in The Thief and the Cobbler live in the desert and wait for caravans to drive by. However, the caravans are so uncommon in their area that when they see one, they have to consult a special book that describes what to do in different situations that occur. For example, when a caravan comes, the instructions say "CHARGE!" | |

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, there are a bunch of thieves in Claude's paralogue, "The Sleeping Sand Legends." They are seen robbing the desert of its treasure when they were dragged into a fight by Claude and the desert's guardian, the Wind Caller aka Saint Macuil. Killing them before the Wind Caller's phantom guardians will net you their contents. | |

Bandits from Nuclear Throne. While present in all levels, they appear first and most numerously in the desert area, with their leader acting as the Boss of that area. They also look the part as much as the post-apocalyptic setting allows, being wrapped in white cloth and having their faces covered. | |

In Adventure in Sahara, the remote desert outpost of Agadez is under constant threat from Arab raiders. One of Lt. Dumond's legitimate complaints against Captain Savatt is that when Savatt takes most of the company for an 80-mile forced march through the desert for no reason except to punish them, he leaves the fort undermanned and vulnerable to attack. | |
