Crisis Cycles

Culture Name: The Khallow Ascendancy

Banner Colour: Onyx (#353839)

Government and Leader: The Master of Ceremonies (Emcee) leads the Khallow Ascendancy, a collective society of the ACROBATS who survived the downfall of their civilization. The Emcee is a rotating title, being drawn by lot whenever the circus decides that they want someone else to lead them. Other than that, Khallow society is very loosely organized, with each settlement mostly doing its own thing. After meeting the Tugad lizards, however, the various groups have become more closely interlinked, and they've taken some ideas from Tuvarii Republicanism.

Society: The Khallow were once a people laid low by disaster, and they had fallen into the depths of despair. Then, they were visited by a people from the East - the Tugad lizards. They set off on an expedition through the ruined lands, and found two wondrous artifacts - the moon cache, and the remnants of the Khallow's ancient flying machines.

Invigorated by these discoveries, the Khallow threw themselves into rebuilding their ancient machine and their society. Inspired by Tugad, they built not only flying machines, but ships! Air-ships! The Khallow, before confined to a few tents in the wastes, took to the air in a colorful fleet of balloons, airplanes, and zeppelins.

Now, the Khallow's sky-cities drift over their former lands, sometimes visiting their neighbors and traveling across the ocean as well. Using the technological expertise from studying the mooncache, they've begun cleaning up the wastes, and endeavor to bring joy and happiness to everyone.

Species:The Khallow

Stances on the three changes:

SKY: 100% positive
LOVE: The Khallow's best friends are lizards! Yes!
BOTTOMLESS: Negative. As inhabitants of the Middle Sky, the Khallow see no need to go down to go up. They could probably reach the moon by flying if they wanted.

Major cultural influence: The Khallow-Tugad Alliance
