Geography

Khel'Seth lays way up in the north of Atlas, hidden away deep into the mesa desert. It takes a long while to get there but it's certainly rewarding. Upon aproaching the city you see it on top of rocky cliffs across a vast river called the 'feather's stream'. One has to cross the feather's stream by bridge and then make their way up a tunnel that digs into the coloured claystone cliff, leading up to the city on top. The city is separated in two parts, the main living area on the plateau and the chieftain's tent on a seperate plateau, the two being connected by a wooden bridge.

Government

Governing body of the Warhawke tribe is the Conclave of Tahorran. Led by the Chieftain who holds utmost authority and makes final decisions for the tribe that can only be vetoed by majority of the conclave. The current Chieftain is Erolas Ba'ikana, who has held the title for several decades.

Society

Economy

The Warhawke economy is officially a standard free market economy. However, minas don't play a large role in the elven nation since goods are brought into a communal warehouse by the population for nothing and in return they can use what they need for nothing. Thus creating a quite socialist, communal economy; you put in what you don't need, and in return you get what you need.

Military

The guardforce of Khel'Seth is the Chiefdom's national army; the Tahorran'okar, which means 'The Hawk's safeguard'. It is led by the Cosmic Inquisitor, which currently is Nerrin Delevoye.

Culture

A Warhawke is commonly a pure Mali'Ker. They are often seen wearing tribal-like wear that includes sashes, beads, a mohawk, or face paint. Their primary weapon of choice is a lapis tomahawk that is often adorned in feathers, lapis beads, and a fine wooden handle of either acacia or spruce origin.

The Warhawkes are Mali’ker astronomers. They are believers in Igne’acaela, and the spiritual traits within lapis. The tribe is well-known to do research pertaining to the sky and the stars, as well as studying machinery, the art of war, and properties of lapis. Lapis lazuli is praised and admired by the entirety of the Warhawke tribe. Every member has a family piece that is passed down to them by their bloodline. While it may not necessarily be always on their person, it is always protected and safe. Never forgotten.

The tribe uses the material for weapons, jewelry, and household decoration. The gifting of lapis from one Warhawke to an outsider is a great sign of respect. Respect is most important to the Warhawkes, respect for all things. Pride and family are held dear to them.

All aspiring Warhawkes leap through the flames of a log that is burning blue. If they come out unscathed, they are a true Warhawke.
