TANGLEWOOD || ADOPTING ELSWEYR SIBLINGS - rhosmari - 11-19-2020 BEGINNINGS
The tribe of Ma'atichi has existed for a very long time. Far away and not within reach of any groups that live within the lands of where most of the commotion happens. It is a group that flourishes with the land itself but also faces deep deep hardships that exist because of other tribes as well as the natural elements. They are also known to others as the Croc Tribe for various reasons that will be discussed later on in the other sections. They live within vast humid jungles and scorching deserts, nomadic in nature they often move with the herds of prey they chase down. Or when the land needs to replenish they will move to their next location. Primarily formed of cheetahs the tribe does not often let in other animals.
CULTURE
The tribe is nomadic. They moved with the seasons as well as they moved with their prey and when the land demanded it. They are a tight knit group fostering that the young should grow up ever ready for anything. Because their lands were hight worn torn and they faught with other tribes and even sometimes dragons they teach their young to fight and some to hunt/gather. Some became Warriors while some deviated to paths like that of the Farseer to learn to heal and meditation, to see what laid beyond. Celebrations and Rituals. The Wild Mane provided leadership and decision. Proceeding over First Hunts and Coming of Ages. Everyone had their role to fill and to keep everyone strong. Even Elders pitched in with watching the younger individuals to keep them out of trouble.
VERNACULAR - Because of their isolation from others besides other warring tribes they do not speak with the same tongue as others. Most Ma'atichi tribe members speak in a third person tone. Referring to others as This one, or he, or she. As well as themselves in this manner. They will rarely use I or even you. Asking questions usually begins with a statement before asking the word yes or no to the end of it. THE TRADITIONS
PIERCINGS - Piercings are important within her tribe as they are normally gained through milestone like achievements. Through their first successful hunt, their first victory in battle, becoming a warrior, marriage etc. The place where the piercing goes is usually up to the member to have more significance. These piercings are primarily made out of the bones of the creatures they killed.
WEAPONRY - While most of the tribe is taught from an early age to be able to fight with their natural weapons, there are those that learn how to craft from their bonesmith daggers and needles. These daggers are primarily crafted from the thigh bones of both enemies and prey animals a like with intricate patterns and designs. COMING OF AGE - The coming of age is important, those ready will begin their first hunt and their trials. They will be blindfolded and led through the jungle before being released on their own. Ever watched they are to bring back either their first kill, or their first rare herbal plant. Or if they are feeling that Cipactli is with them they can challenge a crocodile to claim the skull and the flesh in her name. PAINTS - Paints are important to the Ma'atichi tribe as they have varying meanings to them. Each color represents something to them. Some tribe members wear the paint during every day going ons. But red is only worn during war times and battles or by both the Farseer and the Wild Mane. Herbalist and leader respectfully. RELIGION - In her culture her tribe worshipped a crocodile god name Cipactli, some saw it as female, some saw it as male and some saw it as neither. She believes that the god/goddess is all but her siblings can believe whichever they choose to. With any kill that they make they leave a piece for Cipactli as worship and for their share. The god is seen as ever hungry, a monstrous being with many mouths, birther of all crocodiles and reptilian like beasts. Resembling power, viciousness, ferocity, bloodlust and savagery of the wilds. Protector of jungles and marshlands. Having the skull of a crocodile was seen as a blessing from the god for killing one was no easy feat and lives were easily lost to the massive water dwellers. Those sacrificed to Cipactli are seen to be forever doomed to the Void that exists in the deity's stomach. Darkness infinite. THE RULES
This is for the adoption of two of Elsweyr's siblings to come to Tanglewood. To experience something different with her and expand their knowledge of other creatures from the norm that they knew.
1. I reserve the right to rehome these siblings should they fall inactive for more than two weeks. 2. They must stay in Tanglewood for at the minimum of 2 months before moving then somewhere else as I would like for them to continue their bond with their sister. 3. The choosing date is not set but I made be slightly quick to pick based on reading over forms. 4. Naming theme is tribal names, you can even choose names from Elder Scrolls and the Khajiit format if you wish. 5. Please be patient as I may take a bit to look these over. 6. If there are any questions please dm [member=47]rhosmari[/member] THE RELATIONS
Elswyer does not have any current relations to any animals within these lands. She is considered a second generation character though from her mother and father who can be found in her tags.
