The Snow Clan

Clan Events/Rituals:

 

Snow Clan Initiation:

A coming-of-age event for Snow Clan youths that all Snows' go through at the age of 18. The youth is taken to the wild and told to survive for about 3 IG days. They start out with just a hunting knife and 5 loaves of bread. An adult Snow would RP as random events that would occur in the wild, as well as RPing random animal encounters for the initiate. The youth needs to bring back a symbol of courage by bringing back the skin of a wild animal. The Head of the Snow Clan would then initiate them into adulthood.

 

The Hunt:

An event that happens about once every two Elven weeks, where Snows go hunting in the wild. The hunted animals would be RP'ed by either other Snows or other friends.

 

The Cactus Circle:

An event that happen about once every Elven month, where all Snows gather at a Clanhouse to discuss issues within the Clan, and be updated with every Snow's life. The discussion takes place in a huge circle where cactus green is passed around. There is also pipeweed available. Depending on the month, there will be other activities such as dances, duels, etc, during the meeting.

 

Other:

• The Clan colors are white and sky blue, matching their physical features.
• A formal greeting to an older Clan member would be to put your right fist over your heart and bow.
• There is a casual Clan greeting which involves just the fist-over-heart.
• Neutral with all other Easterner Clans.

OOC:

 

So, there is everything you need to know about the Snow Clan. Let me state that this Clan is NOT A NOBLE HOUSE, and I never plan to make it one. The purpose of this Clan is so that my character can have something to do, and also to create a small RP group that goes on casual events about once a week. The culture of the Clan is based off of a mixture of Korean and Native American culture.

 

Current Home:

 

Currently, the Snow Clan is living in a tent camp. We are right across the river from Ac'Talarah, or x: -553 z: -443
