Tribe: Almache

The Almache are a settled tribe, prefering to gather considering the bounties of nature nearby their village. They generally respectful of nature and one another (They would also be nice to their neighbors, but there aren't any at the moment...) The tribe is also proficient at gathering flax for cloth given the toughness of the local wildlife, though it means a warrior that has killed a beast in combat is someone to be respected. It's main oddity is the fact that the tribe is matriachal.

So you make a tribe, make a character, and be that character- in your tribe?

Actually, you don't have to make a tribe, you can be in a pre-existing one.

Some advice to GM, make a player limit. If you don't, it will become a hellish experience to update.

I think the GM is going for a mostly realistic setting, Firelordsky. I doubt he would allow the animal speech thing, although you could replace that easily with having formed mutualistic bonds with certain species.

I hope I did this right, I believe you roll for the stats based on description, right?

Tribe: The Mokoli
The Mokoli are a warlike, land-hungry people based around their main village, little more than a ditch and wooden palisade, in a jungle clearing.
Feared headhunters and cannibals, one of the initiation rites for a boy to become a man is to kill and eat an opponent, usually an enemy of the tribe.
The other requirements include wrestling one of the beasts in the jungle to a standstill, and being gifted with their traditional full-body tattoos and piercings.
The Moloki's quick expansion, in the name of their bloodthirsty god Komrak, has been slowed lately as they have encountered several enemy tribes.





Character: Mafun Mokoli-Dahn
Young fourteen-year-old Mafun, as yet a mere stripling untried on the field of battle, is viewed with contempt by both the older men of the tribe (including his father Mahton, a close friend of Chief Bhamang) and the girls near his age, a distressing situation for the lad.
Faced with the daunting tasks required for his ascenscion to adulthood, the thin, wiry Mafun must put down his unmanly hobbies of basket-weaving and painting to take up the spear, hide shield and bone club and prove himself.

Livestock population mix and growth is abstracted due to it's rapid rate of development. It is assumed it is managed in the best ability to give it the arbitrary growth pattern I assign to it. Those patterns are very arbitrary and based on the fictional stats of the creature, because there is no way in hell I could make a real one. Sheep see a growth of 3 for every 1.2 population, with a sharp dropoff in population growth for low animal husbandry for the flock. Goats have an identical "perfect" growth, but have higher husbandry requirements and a much gentler slope in growth dropoff.

So, We are up to four players in the poor El-effhichen tribe.

The RNG seems to like the Almache and Arv. He's got his problems as does his tribe but man his potential is astounding.

Spoiler: Gokanloa (click to show/hide)

I don't know what it is with the Mokoli... Maybe they eat them or maybe it's the jungle lifestyle causing problems, but they only have 3 adult females to 100 adult males. They have 23 children, so maybe this ratio has existed for awhile. It explains their warlike attitude for sure.
