The Dunjal Pride

 

 

 

 

Brief History:
The Dunjal pride is not and old pride, they have only been formed recently by Yhl’Shavvir an elder of the Kha and an ex-Dra’Metza. The pride itself was formed for two main reasons. Firstly it was created to make a group of a kha’s with mutual interests so that they can live a healthy and strong life while being protected by the pride. Secondly it was made to protect the heritage and culture of the Kha. Yhl’shavvir has knowledge that he wants to pass on and by making the pride he would ensure that at least a handfull of kharajyr would know of the old ways and the old traditions. When Yhl’Shavvir decided to make the pride he turned to the one person that he trusts the most: Dri’Quorak. Together they formed the pride to what it is now, finding the perfect balance between the old ways and new.

Structure of the pride:
The structure of the pride is a basic ‘military’ structure:
 

The Mane:

The mane is the one that leads the pride, his word is final and overrules that of

the council.

 

The council:

 

-The pride Champion:

The person in the pride that has the higest number of wins

in the arena. He does not have a special task within the pride but his opinion is

appreciated because of prowess in battle.

 

-The elders:

All elders that are part of the pride are automaticly on the council, their task is to pass on

their knowledge to the future generation.

 

-The others:

This can be anyone whom is chosen by the mane. The reason can range from a special skill to a high social status outside of the pride.

 

The pride members:
Everyone that is not on the council is a normal pride member, they are not worth less than the others. However they have to show respect to all those that are higher in the pride than they are (council and mane). They will most likely be warriors or arena fighters. Other jobs are frowned upon (see the dunjal way)

 

 

 

 

The ‘way’ of the Dunjal:

The Dunjal Pride is a pride that focusses on the art of fighting and war. All of the adult kha’s that have passed their trials are forced to chose one weapon and train with it untill they master it. They are trained by the elders and leaders of the pride, once they are deemed good enough they start teaching themselves and thus creating a constant flow of fresh warriors.

Once a member of the pride has reached adulthood he will be ‘forced’ to chose a weapon of his choise wich he will use from that moment on. The Kha are allowed to use other weapons but their main objectif should be to master their ‘chosen’ weapon. That all members of the pride are trained warriors and not just soldiers that know how to use a variety of weapons but fail to master any of them.

All adult pride members are expected to join the military of the Kharajyr. The only ecxeptions are female kha’ with cubs or kha’ that have reached a higher social status than that of warrior. (for example, Aelkos/Priest/...)

Respect is one of the things that the Dunjal take as seriously as their fighting. They believe that the Kharajyr society is build on respect. All kha (even/especially) the cubs are thought to respect those that have a higher social status than them. Those that show disrespect to anyone that is higher in the social class than them (this includes non-pride members) will be banished from the pride.
