Culture Name: The Federated Tribes of Gadesu and Ranitezia
Banner Colour: Heliotrope (#DF73FF)
Government and Leader: Co-Consuls Haddrax and Palatina Amara lead the tribal republic of Gadesu and Ranitezia. The Gaddesu choose their consul from among the clan chiefs, Haddrax being the best negotiator among them. The Ranitezians, however, choose theirs through an assembly, where the people debate furiously and vote using small marked stones. Palatina Amara was the most popular among them this season. The Co-Consuls serve ten-year terms.
Society: It is very surprising that the Gadesu and the Ranitezians get along as well as they do. Both of them hail from the wooded marshlands of the plateau, and the two have very different cultures. The Gadesu organize their society in clans, with each clan raising its eggs together and sharing most, if not all possessions. Each clan is led by a chief who is the most respected member of the community, usually due to being older, stronger, or wiser than everyone else. The Gadesu are an honorable people and give reverence to their ancestors and the land that sustains them.
The Ranitezians, on the other hand, are more individualistic, with small families. Children usually set off on their own after coming of age, and the Ranitezians value art, music, and learning. They are also very community-minded, though, with large numbers of unrelated individuals coming together for big festivals and projects. They are skilled in herb-craft and magic and are known to grow hallucinogenic mushrooms and other drugs.
Together, the two share the land and get along nicely. The Gadesu are the builders and doers, putting their resources together to handle day-to-day life, while the Ranitezians are ideas people and specialists, working on tools and art.
Species: The Gadesu, also known as Lizard-Folk, are a cold-blooded race of semi-aquatic lizards. They thrive along rivers and in marshlands, value strength and honor, and have large clutches of eggs that are raised communally. The Ranitezians are elves, long-lived humanoids with pointy ears and delicate, fey-like features. They are highly magical, have few children, and love to braid their ridiculously long hair. These elves can grow beards though, and very much enjoy having fancy facial hair too.
Stances on the three changes: The Federated Tribes absolutely LOVE the Dove Concordance and maybe even are going a little overboard with the doves. They also have accepted and are experimenting with the magical metal. However, both cultures dislike and reject the wandering judges - the Gadesu prefer to listen to their elders, while the Ranitezians think they're kind of stuck up and should just chillll man.
