Here we go!
Please, take everything I say here with a grain of salt. This is just opinion, and my interpretation of what we know, etc. Just trying to help you out with the lore and such! Mainly just things that you can think on.
Race: Miqo'te, Clan: Seeker of the Sun, Tribe: Wolf.
He seems a bit tall for a Miqo'te male. From a study we did, they seem to cap out at about 5'7". This is just an estimate, though, and is not to say there can't be some that are really tall.
The status of nunh does not actually give any leadership status in the tribes for Seekers. It simply is for males who breed. So when his father died, it'd be far more likely that another male who was of age and such would take over the job of nunh, not him. If he wants to be nunh, he'd likely have to fight for it, prove himself, or start his own group.
"All males are born as tia. At any time in their lives, a tia can challenge the tribe nunh to battle. If the tia is victorious, he takes the nunh’s place as tribe breeding male (until he is challenged and defeated), and the nunh becomes a tia once again (if he survives the ordeal). This is done to ensure that the tribe’s offspring are of the finest stock. Depending on its size, a tribe may have multiple nunh (a ratio of one nunh per ten to fifty females is average).
There is only one other way a tia can become a nunh, and that is to leave his tribe, and start his own. This, of course, requires several females to accomplish, and most female Seekers of the Sun are rarely impressed by a male who cannot defeat a nunh.
Nunh status does not equate to leadership within a tribe, and in fact, very few nunh ever become leaders."
Him opting for a single mate would lose him the name nunh in an instant, me thinks.
The tribe system in the Seekers.. is a bit different than I think you are understanding. The tribe itself in his case would be that of Wolf, therefore they would all have W' starting their names, as you sort of have. "The first name is always proceeded by a letter representing their tribe." You may want to say.. his tribe had 10 family groups, rather than clans, as I don't really understand what you mean by it. If they had different letters (like C' or w/e), they would be technically a different tribe. Clans would be that of him being a Seeker of the Sun.
I tend to avoid major things in my own stories, but that's just because I prefer simplistic characters that can develop more through RP than complex backstory. I get kind of lost around 1570. The Order, the magic infection.. Maybe you can help me out there.
