But, does the entire tribe live in close proximity and is tight knit, or are there smaller families/clans within the tribes, who live in places of their own choice?Â
Secondly, are only nunh allowed to breed with the females to make offspring, or can there ever be a forbidden realtionship between a tia and a female of the tribe? Can a tia under any circumstances breed without challenging for the position of nunh?
Thirdly, there are many nunh, usually a ratio of one nunh to ten to fifty females, right? Can a nunh be devoted to only one female or is a harem () very much necessary?
I have some more questions after this that will help me construct Eleni's backstory, but for those questions to rise, I'll need answers to these questions first.Â
Many thanks in advance!ÂLooking forward to the answers and an increase in my knowledge of the lore.
1. There are 26, originally. Players can invent their own tribes using combinations of letters rather than a single letter of the alphabet. I believe that generally, tribes have different little sects.
2. Only Nunh are allowed to breed. I'm sure there are Tia who do break away from the tradition, but it would be frowned upon if not downright punishable, and the lore seems to suggest Seeker women are generally unimpressed by any man who isn't a Nunh who's proved his worth. I don't really know under what circumstances a Tia may be allowed to breed unless a Nunh can't perform his duties, in which case I imagine they'd just name the Tia the new Nunh anyway.
3. I thought the ration of Nunhs was generally smaller than that, but idk, it's been a while since I've read a lot on Seeker lore. Regardless, I don't think it would ever be approved for a Nunh to be monogamous/take a single mate, as it would kind of defeat the purpose of Nunhs.
