Au Ra, Xaela tribal alliance and enemies?

[V'aleera]

Tribe linkshells I am totes down for. Shit, I'm down for an Auri linkshell, too. 

I think a general Au Ra RP linkshell would be a fantastic avenue for Au Ra players to find eachother, tribal players included.

I think they're definitely hunter/gatherers because of the little description we do have in their text on the official site:

 

Unlike their sister clan, the Raen, who lead solitary lives hidden behind the savage peaks of Othard's eastern reaches, the Xaela are free spirits who roam the vast western steppe in close-knit tribes hunting, gathering, and warring as their ancestors have for countless generations.

 

Though I'm sure there will be unique tribes out there that might not be specifically that. If anything has been proven it's that nature doesn't always follow a set pattern, most of the time, but not always. I don't think a Pastoralist or even a Gypsy style tribe would be too far fetched. Not at all. That's just my two cents on that of course. The former is probably more likely than the latter.

 

Hehe, yeah, that's why it's my bet, too. In which case, hell, wouldn't it be interesting to have African themed tribes? But probably not. They'll prolly stick to central eurasia.

 

But it's funny if there are hunter-gatherers on steppes, because steppes groups were pastoralist. (all of the ones I know of were)

 

But rp is rp, and in the end some clever thinking can make anything possible, as you say.

 

I'm just obsessive, is all

 

I can't help myself.

Ha ha definitely understandable! I'm more likely to defer to you on the whole thing because I am in no way good with history, or a history buff. I R DUMB. I'm just hoping for something neat and then I will devour anything I can find when it comes to examples in history! 8D And probably poke some of you history buffs until you want to strangle me.

 

Also LS's would be great, I know of one thus far that I'm in called Othard United. It's for general Eastern characters, Domans, future Au Ra, what have you but it's a start if there are no others out there and they're friendly!

I'm just ... like, a dream to me would be getting a phd in cultural anthropology and going to mongolia. FOR REASONS I DON'T KNOW YET. But yeah. And AND I also want LSs. And stuff. And discussion where I can ogle others' ideas.

Superb ethnography without some bothersome narrator telling you what to look at.

Nope nope nope. It's passion, is what it is. I can tell how much you're into this sort of thing by your posts. Don't let anyone take that away from you! <3

I am starting a very small tribe, I have a thread on it in the making connections thread.

 

However - If others want in we will be deciding what shared  traits our 'clan' will have and why they migrated to Eorzea. 

 

I'm pretty bad at long detailed posts but we have around 4 members now - and I'd love a small rivalry going on or more members.

 

There will he a patriarch a cheifdom but no gender differences in importance in each member. Hunter gatherer system with maybe a wise-woman and such.
