Honestly, I could expect logically to see one of the possible reasonable portrayals of a Nunh to be an arrogant sexualized male with a harem behind him... Yeah, I'm not kidding. That's a possibility. I would expect some Nunh to act like that, like you would see many people IRL acting like that if they were afforded the occasion. You have many assholes in positions of power and sometimes they deserve them due to their skills. Which doesn't mean they can't be assholes.
As long as they fulfill their obligations and duties to their tribe, and that's where you pull it right or wrong.Â
It always boils down into a good fleshing out of the character and a 3 dimensional portrayal where you actually show that your character isn't a sexual power fantasy.
Also, on the males raising Seeker children, I would have to find confirmation but out of my memory, no, females raise their children before anything else. Especially when the nunh probably have dozens and dozen of them. Not saying that the Nunh will not teach them stuff, hunting lessons, etc, but I don't see him doing that more than anyone else (esp considering the sheer number of children), but women seemed to educate the children in their everyday life. Especially since female Seekers seem also to be as capable as hunting and doing 'male' stuff than their male counterparts.
Maybe I don't remember correctly though.
Yeah well, maybe that's just me, but I really, really can't see a breeding Nunh as a dad...
Would love to see the reputation of the title improve though, but that would need more players pulling it right, like any position of power really.
