One additional thing to consider, often I see people assuming that tribal Miqo'te are inherently savage, brutal, or primitive and uncivilized. There's no grounding for this reasoning, as there are plenty of traditionally named Seeker and Keeper Miqot'e hanging out in the three city-states getting along with the civilized folk just fine.
My own Miqo'te is a traditionally raised Keeper of the Moon male who is far from a savage - though his education is a little lacking.

Well, not so much the tribal end of it as much as it was the whole Nuhn breeding thing. For me, in roleplay for my character, it was too carnal? Maybe carnal isn't the right word, but I am sure many of you know what I am trying to say. XD
On the other hand, she manages her business closely with her sister as a business partner so you could say she still has some tribal roots in that her family is very important to her.
As others said, don't confuse tribal with savage, though!
Thanks for all of the replies thus far, it has been very helpful.
