Revamping In Argovia?!
Posted: Tue Jan 27, 2004 8:37 pmOk. So Neko gave Argovia to Pervy. And not much happens there, it's kinda under developed in places and so on. It all works though. Cept one thing that aught my Eye: Reohoden.
If anyone already has a character with history that needs Reohoden, then say so in here and stop me while you have time! In the meantime, Pervy has given me the island, and I have basically remade... everything about it. No more Demon Ityre, no more "RAWR WE NO LIKJES TRADE WITH IGALA." Instead...
Reohoden:
Cultural notes: Reohoden is a series of family oriented, Patriarchal/tribal society. The natives are typically very energetic, and never quite grow out of their childish tendencies. It is not uncommon to see the elderly and the young playing contact sports together. As a society, they are fairly laid back on rules. So long as no one is hurt, most things are considered acceptable. Reohoden is very open to travellers, and a foriegner may join a tribe through marriage, or under special circumstances, may be made an honorary member due to a great feat of courage, strength, or honor.
Government and Economy: Reohoden's government is actually a large smattering of tribal communities, which interact with one another in a mutually beneficial manner, rather than a true ruling of any one group. Therefore, Reohoden does not often make decisionsas a whole, but rather attends to it's own affairs as they come up. Reohoden is a large exporter of Fish, various High quality hair Dyes, Fruit and semi-precious gems, in that order. Imports, in no particular order, include but are not limited to: Various metals, meat, cotton, and higher quality lumber for building. Reohoden is also known for growing Canabis, but it is rare that this is exported: It is viewed as a sacred plant, granting visions to Nekogami's faithful.
