The resulting offspring may carry the strengths of the Nunh, but they may equally be weakened by the weaknesses in this particular female. Heck, in a more primitive/hard-pressed tribe, I could even see her being cast out and left to fend for herself (or die).The only problem I have with this line of speculation is that it's not addressed in the lore outside the game and the only in-game lore actually contradicts it: one of the main questlines for the U tribe/Forgotten Springs area is about a female Seeker who is clearly just terrible at being a huntress. But rather than denigrate her for her failures, she's constantly assisted and encouraged and eventually guided toward a path that is more becoming of her skills.
Right, more fitting of her skills. She's bad at being a huntress, but she may still have a use - maybe as a shaman if she has the talent, or a firedancer, or even just a cook or someone who watches over the children. Waste not, want not and all that. The individual in my example is someone who is, for lack of a kinder term, simply dead weight with no possible way to aid their tribe.
I would certainly expect for a tribe to try and find a place for one of their own if possible before tossing them to the sandworms.

Well do keep us updated please! I'd like to hear how it goes ^^
Haha, if I do go with it, I'll probably mention it here. I'd definitely want other folks to help make it a full-fledged tribe.
