Anon. Anon, I am gripping your shoulders at this moment.

Thank you for giving me something to think about while at work! And to finish posting the rest of The Nunh and I

The short answer is that some of the basic lore can be found here

Things not mentioned in the linked post:

By Seeker standards, Antelope tribal dynamics are simultaneously overly familiar and yet distant.

Honorifics

Mama ____ - A woman from the previous line who has a child (or kit) of the current line. Ex: A'lathei would refer to A'rhota as Mama A'rhota/Mama Rhota, but call her birth mother Mom/Mama/Mum/etc. Nana/Papa ___ - The elderly members of the tribe, usually the grandmothers/old Tias (including former Nunhs) of the current line. Auntie ___ - A woman from the previous line who has no children, or is a cousin. The tribal prefix is a sign of formality... or the tribal equivalent of getting your full government name said when paired with the angry tones of a mother. Most of the time, the given name is spoken. (A'lathei would simply be called Lathei by her family 80% of the time.)
