Civilization Roleplay: Rise of Races (The Tribes of Nova Mondial Want You!)

I do update my character sheet with a list of Alvith characters. Have it divided currently by where characters live and got section for future dead characters.

Civilization Roleplay: Rise of Races (The Tribes of Nova Mondial Want You!)

Alvith Population: 167 - Age of Rielo
Rielo Village: 84
Scalo Village: 83

The Alvith prospered and grew in strength with two separate villages. When together was always threat that food could come short with so many mouths to feed but apart was food for all. Runners between the two villages keeping the flow of information between two villages, keeping them connected. Chief Rielo Kriivith was the strongest chief having beaten Chief Scalo Kriivith in ritual combat to become Chief before the parting of Alvith into two villages. Though the only ones that really traveled between the villages were runners, each village developing its own hierarchy of strength. Krascalo a male Alvith in village of Scalo was number two, having lost in attempts to take title of Chief. In village of Rielo the female Alvith Vonle had risen to number two in terms of strength and also mate of current Chief.
The issue of having enough huts for everyone had not been reached before the split but it would of been something that would of happened sooner rather than later. Huts made from bones and hides had worked for generations but Kaalo a male Alvith was trying to discover a new thing to build homes from. As Kaalo was on a walk outside village he found a patch of earth that had dried to be tough. Dragging his claws on hand over the dirt it resisted his efforts to dig in it much more then softer dirt grass of plains grew from. It came to mind of Kaalo that if he could find a way to use dirt instead of bones and hides then huts could be made more freely as needed. It would also be of much greater ease to repair a hut. The larger huts always suffered issue with a good Ogurk hide for a hut was also a good hide to make clothing from, huts could get into disrepair. Ogurk herd could be hurt if just killed them more then the Alvith needed to for food.
Elsewhere Raclo had adjusted to life in village of Scalo rather well. It was like old times serving Chief Scalo Kriivith again. One day while working on cutting up a freshly killed Ogurk with his son, Raclo thought upon something. The wood tools he used all his life were always a pain to use and in some cases were useless but Raclo had his brute strength for that. Strongest thing Raclo could think of was a rock. When done with work for the day Raclo would gather various rocks to experiment with.

Well wanted to suggest possible growth for Alvith based on latest ic post. Also moved the original black square of village a little from river. Feels more natural more in plains. Hope it is alright. Not exactly sure which is the most recent map to use. I can fix it easy, used photoshop to edit cause better than just using default paint on computer.

Alvith Population: 167 - Age of Rielo
Rielo Village: 84
Scalo Village: 83

The rule of Chief Rielo Kriivith had been a time of prosperity and growth in strength of the Alvith. However to ensure growth the Chief had come to decision that the Alvith must spread out. The unified nameless tribe simply known as Alvith lead currently by Chief Rielo would split. To try and sway more for the idea of splitting, Rielo gathered the elders some of strongest and most experienced in center of village. Among the elders was the old Chief Scalo Kriivith, grandfather of Rielo and chief before him. Chief Rielo stepped onto flat stone in center of village to elevate himself before speaking.

"Great Strength! Strength grow... but! Must part!" Chief Rielo spoke out to elders of tribe.
"Mad! Strength shrink apart! Chief-" Spoke a Elder missing his left arm before being interrupted.
"Hold tongue! Chief Strong, speak more!" Interrupted Scalo who spoke up, supporting the Chief.
"Strength no longer grow! Space for strength, part for space. Greater space, greater strength! Villages strength together great! More village, more strength." Chief Rielo spoke hoping to sway most of Elders.

Was a silence amongst the Elders as they would mutter amongst themselves. While Rielo was Chief, the Elders together held more strength than him. As the minutes passed Chief Rielo thought Elders might brand him mad and exile him, a fate harsh but as not as harsh as being marked for betrayal. The tension could be felt in air, a mother Alvith grabbing child to stop them from wandering to the meeting in center of town. The tension was broke as one of Elders stood to speak.

"Much thought, words mad but more words..." The Elder gestured with her hands "Strength more words... Chief strong but grow all stronger, young strive..." Spoke the female Elder before she sat down on a rock.
"Young strive, become strongest, become chief! One cannot grow strong, two to make young. Part approved." Spoke a Elder that used a wooden spear to help himself up.
"Strength grow! I Scalo go, as strongest! Below Chief, lead parting!" Spoke Scalo and the group departed to divide up village.

It was decided that half of families would go with Scalo on journey to found a new village. No longer would the village be unnamed, with more than one village was time to name the villages. In honor of great strength the first village was named village of Rielo and the new village would be named village of Scalo. Even the oldest amongst the Alvith did not remember a time with more than one village, the Alvith as far as they knew were always a singular village. The great divide into two villages would be a story of how the Alvith grew stronger, told to the young to inspire them to continue pursuit of strength. Huts of bone and hide were deconstructed and Maule a female Alvith herder volunteered to lead half the Ogurk herd to new village. Raclo would say his goodbyes to Chief Rielo as he would go with his mate Maule to new village. Kralo became the senior herder for the Ogurk in village of Rielo and would be in charge of the half of herd that stayed. The parting members led by Scalo numbered almost as those who stayed, two adult males acting as guards for trip while three adult males that lacked mates stayed in village of Rielo.
It was a journey of several weeks, a journey made possibly by ability to stock up on dried meat that supplemented meat of game caught on trek. After a river crossing the Alvith led by Chief Scalo found plains where they would settle in to make village of Scalo. A village of huts with a herd of Ogurk outside village. With the village settled, every season one of unmated adult males would be sent as runner to village of Rielo. The two villages would do best to stay in touch and ensure that while separate the Alvith were stronger.

Just got back to computer today. Will make sure to use new method for advancing for future development. Only real thing Alvith have developed is preserving food via drying it out in the sun to preserve it.

Alvith Population: 167 - Age of Rielo
@Cuddle Pot The Alvith child Oarlo enjoyed what he thought was a game. Oarlo would start to pick up everything that was traded for the tusk, placing the toad upon his head. The young Alvith then would wave to the two creatures before going to take everything to hut he lived at with his parents. Oarlo planned to give the toad a name when he could think of one. Raclo and Maule were both confused by sight of what they watched but decided to let it pass. The creatures seemed rather harmless and Maule would head off to go tend the Ogurk herd. Raclo stood his ground making sure creatures had left before returning back into village.

The sun was high in sky and Chief Rielo Kriivith had arranged some strips of meat from a Ogurk to lay in the sun. During the night in dreams the Chief had been restless, wanting to discover what he believed Great Serpent had shown him. The heat of sun in sky would dry out the strips of meat left out. Thinking back to carcass that had been dried by sun the mind of Chief Rielo struggled to understand. Then the thought entered his mind and Chief Rielo realized the Great Serpent watchful eye had kept the meat of carcass edible longer by the drying. With ability to keep the meat longer before it began to rot the Alvith would be able to more effectively store food. With this new insight Chief Rielo Kriivith would go to tell those in charge of storing meat in huts discovery.

Dried meat, a gift from the Great Serpent in eyes of Alvith. The watchful gaze of sun ensuring the growth of strength for the Alvith. The ability to keep meat longer meant more food as was less waste from the meat rotting. The population of the Alvith swelled with more young born and with that would come the worry of Chief Rielo Kriivith. The Alvith were strongest they had ever been under the current Chief but concerns now arose in Chief Rielo over the Alvith not having enough space. The huts of Ogurk hide and bone worked fine for population when smaller but the huts of the Alvith were not made to support the numbers currently. The thought of having Alvith split would ruin Chief Rielo Kriivith as it would show weakness but that was all that the Chief could think of.

I know I should probably quicken pace some but like going at current pace. Made a race and seeing where it will lead.

@Elitestpotato I imagine it will probably be a long time before the Alvith and Snow Brutes do interact. The cold north would be too inhospitable for the Alvith currently until they develop technology to combat the cold. How things unfold can be affected by a great many things. Alvith currently as a society might change drastically by time they meet Snow Brutes.

Alvith I'd say are Religious and Militaristic. Though they don't really have a military but society is based on strength.

I should be back to posting more regularly. Was ill for past few days unable to really focus on posting. Will be trying to post at least once a day if I can manage.

Alvith Population: 148 - Age of Rielo
The sun was still in sky but had gone down some when Chief Rielo had returned to the village. Alvith were going about their business and the Ogurk herd outside village was eating grass. During the trip back to village Chief Rielo Kriivith had thought on what the Great Serpent had shown him. The Chief would retire to his hut for the day. Rielo had decided on the next day he would leave meat out in sun when it was at its hottest.

@Cuddle Pot Raclo was surprised when the small creatures didn't run off. The creatures just running off had been the desired outcome but now Raclo wasn't sure what to really do. As Raclo watched the two creatures acting odd exchanging things between themselves Maule another Alvith walked up. So now two Alvith watched the creatures.

"Raclo! What small things?" Spoke Maule.
"Don't know! Odd... no run, fearless? Odd!" Spoke Raclo before shaking his head.
"Kill? Small weak, Raclo kill." Spoke Maule gesturing for Raclo to just spear the creatures.

The Alvith Raclo shook his head, he wasn't going to just kill the creatures. For one he wasn't hungry and was nothing to really benefit him in killing the creatures. Wasn't a kill of something strong so wouldn't be a demonstration of strength. While Raclo and Maule would gesture to one another a third Alvith that had spotted the creatures walked up. The third Alvith was a child named Oarlo who wandered over to look at the strange creatures. Oarlo was far more impressionable and curious than a adult Alvith and had carried over something to join in what the young Alvith thought was a game. A tusk of a ogurk had been carried over by Oarlo who set it down to play in what the young Alvith thought was a game.
