Ardem / Lore / Devoted but Lecherous
For centuries Ardem tribe has the largest population in Meority thanks to their immense desire for… procreation; and if not for low fertility rate of their eggs it would be extremely high way before current age. It comes from a fact that round every second month is a mating season for Ardem, during this time faint smell of cinnamon and fruits from their sweat and pheromones soars around. While growing appetite and infatuations can warn about incoming carnal desires beforehand, it became routinely for sistren of other tribes to expect minor delays or halts in some systems and infrastructures during these weeks. But we should pray first for Ardem’s othertribe partners, trapped and wrapped in web of endless love – it is a great challenge to survive emaciation and exhaustion and tortures of pleasures.
It doesn’t mean that outside of these seasons Ardem are not sexually active, after all its Ardem Engifted who founded “Slime and Tentacles” Doctrine as well as their engineers design various pleasure machines, but at least they are sober enough to become remarkably diligent and endeavorous members of society, committing themselves to amend “wasted” time, never afraid of assuming responsibility or take difficult tasks, performing best at their capacity and extra if possible. For Ardem laziness is inadmissible in bed and work alike, so they expect each other (and other tribes) to commit in full aptitude in every aspect of life, or face systemic contempt and scorn. In thought, it is presumed that they want to uphold societal stability for own good so they can continue dedicating themselves to what they enjoy, without worsening of benefits and qualities of life we achieved after centuries of progress.
Except… there is another way Ardem can channel their prurience. As much as they are passionate about sexual pleasures, it all comes to mental response from physical and psychical sensations, receiving or giving, and a minor re-wiring can easily turn desires for lust and procreation into frenzy of ruination. A mental switch that converts any Ardem into a vicious berserk who revels in carnage and seeks for pain.
Confrontation face-to-face with Ardem warriors in such state were always dreaded by other tribes: with razor-sharp blades on their quick tails, and piercing claws and fangs, they swiftly shred their victims in a carnival of flesh; not bothering if mangling themselves in the process, for their brain shuts off any limits on body – even if blades and hands are broken, and earth is soaking wet with own blood leaking from bone-shattered limbs – with a smile they will hunger for more pain, own and foe’s. The most terrifying thing is to realize that such amorous and seductive people like Ardem can turn into bloodthirsty creature not from hate or envy, or to protect what dearest to them, but for pure pleasure.
During less peaceful times of our history some nations would count Ardem as a major war asset, managing military campaigns according to their mating seasons and population on each side. Though, most disastrously infamous battles were made when both side would send their numerous Ardem on each other, resulting only in a combined wave slaughtering every othertribe sistren around – Ardem berserks don’t attack one another as long as they can sense different prey around.
***
As a result of highly promiscuous lifestyle Ardem are generally bisexual and don’t hold common concepts of a family – when ready for a long relationship they assemble into groups of a dozen or more mutual spouses called Garappe, where together they share one bed, parent responsibilities of future eggs and household-financial problems... but especially bed. In such relationship Ardem don’t elude to secret affairs and dalliance: flirt is acceptable to find new spouses for Garappe, yet faithfulness is expected to the rest of relationship from now on, for a sole exception being participations in Carnal Rites within Ardemial Chapels of the Church of Thighs with the rest of familiar congregation. As well Ardem immunity system is untouchable by venereal diseases (which are so few and innoxious among other tribes anyway).
Ardem comprise of four distinct genetic groups: Ardem De are the most common and most lustful of them; Ardem Va are truly vicious – they often turn to violent side of inner nature instead of procreation, spending time hunting for Cults of Envy or Jealous Beastiary, hence they are genetic minority; Ardem Al are sanguineous in a different way – they are fascinated with feeling of pain and prefer very rough and extreme activities for body and mind, so if you don’t make them moan from pleasures of agony… then it will be you; Ardem Do are the shy ones (for their kin) – sexual drive is not as licentious, mating seasons are shorter and they can even bond to a single partner for a long standard marriage.
Unlike many other tribes, instead of commonly structured nose with nostrils Ardem have four spiracle-like orifices on their necks with “nasal” cavities surrounding trachea tube before connecting to it slightly below. Respiratory system, however, is still connected to Pharynx for voice modulation through use of airflow. Under primary eyes there are two smaller ones which can see ultraviolet light. Besides scalp Ardem are absolutely hairless. Syringe-like fangs designed to quickly deliver substance from venom glands in a swift bite, and in Ardem’s case it is an aphrodisiac fluid: compatible with most sistren tribes but highly potent thence dangerous.
Spinnerets located on each wrist under carpus, and are typically segmented into three orifices, each producing own filament. Silk glands located in forearms inner side and between bones. Combining filaments from both arms can produce silk thread strong enough to hold weight of own weaver, and when Ardem fully emptying silks glands they can produce a thread of such strength forty times longer than own body height. For more precise work on web Ardem use nails on hands to separate and move filaments around.
***
Ardem adore all bodies – because body is art. Comfortable with openly exhibiting own beauty and sensuality, they, as a widely spread tribe, set an example which sistren tribes quickly followed, and eventually Expressions of the Body were seen as meritorious since before preserved history (in reasonable suggestive limits of course, unless Revealing is imposed by religion or status). Expressions of the Body is an Ardemial founding philosophical principle – not sexual lust, but aesthetic love and appreciation of bodies granted to us by our Allmother, as arousing and hot as She intended. Our flesh is made of Her flesh, thus these bodies are not to be ashamed or hidden, but to be presented in all beauty for each other to admire, which also means duty of ours is keeping these bodies healthy and fair as they are given – a healthy mind in a gorgeous body. Evidently until middle Age of Crumbling Ardem were almost naked in good weather, wearing just sandals and loose loincloth, but in time other tribes influenced them too, and Ardem understood that clothes shall be, but not to conceal our bodies, no, they believe otherwise – clothes are first to complete and emphasize our gorgeousness, to add more flair and heat.
There was no peculiarity in Ardem migration patterns during Age of Crumbling, with a rapidly growing population they would settle on every new lands that was discovered. Ancient ruins all over Northern Continent suggest that even back then Ardem were already devoting themselves to faiths in Her Bottom and successfully captivating other tribes to join. Although it was forbidden by the Hegemony, Ardem kept praying in secrecy for two millennia.
After the Church of Thighs was established and second Angel of Love was pronounced as the Matriarch of Thighs in first century AA, Ardem flock to the Northern Continent where her teachings are spread wide, and avoid the Realms of Bosom where it is less welcomed. Though every Sacred Tribe worship their Aspect, Ardem are so passionate and dedicated to Angel of Love and Her Church, They all as much believe themselves to be her spouses and not jealous each other. As well it is hard to find any Ardem goods and services which are not adorned with Runes of Love or Trigons of Hips and Thighs.
Through spiritual discipline, prayers on Thighs and Carnal Rites, Ardem embrace and rejoice inner desires, as well as train abstinence and perseverance against them while contemplating lovemaking of others – means to tame oneself and able to repel these corporeal calls later when a calm decent mind is needed the most in a society full of tribes less libidinous. Thus it is common for Ardem to continuously lock and chastise own flesh outside of dwellings residence to not give in bodily impulses so easily (measures they still enjoy experiencing of course). Moreover, the Church of Thighs is taking care of Ardem whose carnal ardor is endangering even for own kin. They are shaving scalp clean to wear sacrosanct Gimp Garb, and either: surrenders oneself to surreptitious Horny Attics of Thigh Chapels where Angel of Love personally drain them of lusthood, or descent into the Forbidden Catacombs of the Golden City to hunt heinous Cult of the Worm… in any case, these Ardem are near to never to be seen again.

***
“Her body is wiggling like a worm, gently suspended in the air… or… no, it is motionless, like time is nonexistent… But roots… I see them move under her skin... I see them growing from her body… Hundreds? Thousands? Millions? Infinite? Roots… spreading like a web? It grows in every direction, spreading into everything and claiming for itself… the manifestation of own Greed she is... Mushroom grow on these roots… Faces grow on these roots… Eyes are mushrooms…mushrooms are eyeS… tears are worms… A see an ocean of umbral tears under her feet... moving... the eyes… They always watch, they always look for… and when they find – more roots crying from these eyes… now they look at me… all of them… I sense hunger, bottomless appetite... I can’t hiiiiide! They know I exist! THEY WANT ME NOW!”

Shunai / Lore / Fervent but Contrite
Founders of Holy Herquisition.
Shunai are warm-blooded Mammal-like reptiles; mostly reptiles than mammals. When matured, a tough plate-like carapace, similar to some sort of exoskeleton, covers most of Shunai bodies for exception of a front neck, armpits, palms, inner thighs, buttocks and base of the tail. Soft frills and scutes upon this carapace are Phosphorescence and may glow bright with vivid colors for hours. Heat from these frill can be used for communication, since Shunai perceive light in infrared spectrum like some other reptiles. Nictitating membrane also retained.
Unlike other egg-laying mammals Shunai females rarely lay eggs as they are mostly Ovoviviparous, but sometimes incubation period can be overdue and an egg comes out intact; eggs themselves are alike to big bags with soft leathery shells.
Sense of smell is heavily developed for direct communication, which (in addition of tough facial skin) regressed Shunai facial muscles, making their faces less expressive. Two sweating pheromone sacks hanging from each temple, emitting considerably mild odor, with array of tones only Shunai olfactory senses can fully perceive and discern. However, understanding of different scents you still can identify is important for your visit of places highly populated by Shunai. For example: tones of citrus with garlic or dirt – is a hostile sign; weak honey or cheese tones are friendly and hospitable; if you smell fresh plums, especially when it so strong you can taste it on your tongue – is great sign if you are into reptiles.
Shunai minds are gullible, confiding and submissive. They are frank in actions and relationship, never trying to deceive or mislead others, but as well they are susceptible to different ideas and can be easy to manipulate with lies and deception. If not reflect upon by themselves, or not reminded by closest kin quickly enough, Shunai can be effortlessly swayed in their worldviews, therefore trust, truth and cooperation are highly regarded. As a result of this known mental wiring many Shunai are very paranoid and pedantic, frequently reject any type of progress until it is deliberate and pre-planned. Even new friendships requires a lot of checks to be passed before fully embracing them. As such, very collectivist – family and community bonds are strong and reliable among this tribe, with a widely shared collective vision of the future and high social cohesion. It is very common for new generations to engage in succession of service and follow many-century-long family traditions, but also results in heavy nepotism and less meritocracy, especially among youngsters who defer to elders as to respectable and experienced masters. At the good side Shunai accept punishment as a group too, not just a family, but superiors and subordinates also feel guilt for preventing mistakes of others; and not many of them are looking for personal enrichment, but more commonly they desire for purpose and to appreciate results of their work as a reward itself when they see it beneficial for sistren in Meority, thus value understanding of own role, limitations and fit in larger system. Shunai can reject greater responsibility with even greater awards if they believe themselves to be more beneficial to community where they already are. It is a social mentality carved as a result of events from the past.
Though it is hard to push them to violence as they are favoring compromise and cordial, Shunai can choose absolute brutality when it is inevitable; and when it is inevitable they prefer to crush an adversary to the point where there is never will be another threat from them, for they don’t want to choose violence again. Of course the last part doesn’t include Heretical sistren.
***
Not unexpectedly from the founding tribe of Holy Herquisition, one emotion that surely inevitable and never changed since the Age of Crumbling is Shunai blind hatred towards Envious. A rage that can’t be comparable to scorn and disdain other tribes feel towards faithless fallen sisters. And that rage grows even more when Shunai see a reflection of what their tribe was close to. Even when they are forgiven by Meora Herself, and blessed with Her Aspect as a proof, they still feel guilt and disgrace for actions of their ancestors – stranding away from Her Light, making Her weep in a Legacy of Regret.
As a tribe, Shunai history from the Age of Crumbling is… dark. Results of that history is what shaped social mentality they bear today. Being closest allies to [REDACTED] of the Hegemony – it is replete with aggressive actions, partakings in violent Crusades and other ill deeds which Shunai themselves don’t want sistren tribes to forget, nor be forgiven by them. They hope to never be expiated for actions of ancient parents and what Sorrow they brought to Allmother and all of the sistren.
But if Allmother absolved Shunai of sin, and blessed them with an Aspect of Honor, then why should we blame them for the past? Especially when they dedicate all their potential to remedy that past? Especially when these foul events are bygone and out of minds of people who live today?
What trully happened is that from the birth of first tribes Shunai felt a profound shame towards own bodies: their feet are not as elegant and delicate, their buttocks is hidden by a massive tail, lay of their muscles and abs is hidden under tough carapace and their bosom never grow sizes impressive enough. A shame so deep they regret to be Her children, and now they still regret to be blessed with Her Aspect.
Such self-shame was so easily to exploit, to push Shunai into contemptible actions. They were mislead by [REDACTED] to believe otherwise, that their tribe is an embodiment perfection, just a step below [REDACTED]. They were mislead to believe that other tribes are disgusting in mind and ugly in body, not deserve to be called sistren, only merely servants to a true beauty. Worst of all, they were deceived to unbelieve in existence of our Allmother, Her Gorgeousness and Joy…
***
Shortly after the Grievous Strife started Shunai were unsurprisingly betrayed and abandoned by the Hegemony, to be used as a meat shield against other tribes who were rightfully enraged at them for afflicted malefactions. Yet, unlike for [REDACTED], it was not through death and oblivion others wanted deliver their retribution upon Shunai, but through enthrallment of an entire tribe and subsequent derogation.
Descendants of survived Shunai abated, fearing to lose the precious gift of existence Allmother granted them. They were chained, used and abused by those who they previously subjugated. Too, their own mind was perverted again, to belief such existence is all Shunai were created for – to be mere thrall of greater beings. Yet, through the grace of Meora, they were kept in shackles for barely more than half a century and were reprieved when the first Angel of Honor was said so.
When the Grievous Strife ended and the new age begun, Shunai tribe was still traumatized; minds of new generations, being free for the first time, still surmised it as their fate and duty to forever serve begotten Aspects, as apostles spreading their words and erecting their ideas into live – an eternal punishment they shouldered on themselves, never to be reimbursed. From construction of the Empyrean and Angelic Lodges to maintaining of Holy Herquisition. Although, considering personality nature of Aspects, public dissidents doubt sacrilegiously speculate if anything that was built by Shunai are truly wishes and demands of Aspects, or exalting delusions grown from Shunai’s guilt (for what they did before) and zeal (for what they believe they should do from now on).
From the Laws of Herquisition, to needs of sistren tribes; from the Commandments of Aspects, to comfort of the family – today Shunai are passionate, punctilious, pious and subservient people, seeking beauty in senescence of existence, living life for the cause to make world thrive, and for future generations to endlessly reap results of their labor. They covet to make Meority prosper, be that through an aid to the Faithful or eradication of the Envious.
