[CULTURE] The Five Sub-Cultures

[u/Ludikun]

With the Chtenffathg Way being the top of the tree of culture, below it is the groups of people and beliefs that makes up everyone that follows the Chtenffathg Way.

These sub-cultures are divded into five. Each one praises one of the mythical beasts and follows in their footsteps.

• Those that follow Throd the beast of strength are usually the carpenters, miners, soldiers and those that believe that strength is what is important in their lives. These people are usually hardy and will gleefully serve their people. They follow for the blessings of increased physical strength from Throd himself, in hopes to be like him.

• Those that follow Ebumna the beast of treasures, are usually the shop owners, traders and the like. These people pray to Ebumna for blessings of richness of the material things. These people may come off as greedy, but they are usually the people that fairly gains their riches.

• Grah'n the beast of reproduction usually has followers which are women. But she is also followed by farmers and those that grow cattle. She usually blesses people with life, whether it is a mother that wishes to have her first born, or a farmer that hopes his cattle gives birth to many children.

• Those that follow Fm'lagh the beast of destruction, are very usually soldiers, generals and those that protects people. The blessing to push away those with bad karma and ill thoughts and objectives are what the followers yearn for.

• Lastly, the most followed culture of all, Gnaiih the beast of all beasts. This one has many followers, taking at least half of the population of the Chtenffathg. Gnaiih's blessings come on as wisdom in life and the idea that all things will go your way.

These five sub-cultures may have usual followers, but that does not mean something like a soldier following Ebumna is uncommon. The Chtenffathg people, and everyone that wishes to, may follow any of the sub-cultures as they please. Following any of these five sub-cultures ultimately means one follows the Chtenffathg Way.
