westhaven is built in a sprawling field with slowly sloping mountains, lakes and rivers, and endless space. lavender and a variety of other wildflowers grow in patches. the grass is soft, and children often play in the sun. the valley is exposed though, leaving it vunerable to attacks and icy winter winds. Westhaven is very reputable for its unique fighting techniques and loose strategy. They have altered the names of their ranks, but not changed them, and not renamed all of them. The people here are wild and slightly untamed, and enjoy being active and moving. They are free and are most remembered for being extremely street smarts. they hunt many animals, and wheat farmers are common. they have vast orchards, and there are vast woodlands near there home, but often, they are vulnerable to forest fire, storms and floods from the nearby lake. they are usually led by a human, hybrid, or a winged person. cats, dogs, foxes and horses are common, as they do not usually eat cattle or oxen, and only use them for agricultural purposes. if i do end up getting a dragon i would prefer only eastern and european dragons. Fire lizards are extremely rare, and usually kept only by older members.
Here is their updated rank structure, which, other than name, is basically the same:
Head chief = chieftain; traditionally an infertile female or an unmarried man.
Shaman = healer
War chief = lead warrior; the lead warrior traditionally carries an axe, a very symbolic weapon in westhaven.
Warriors
Scout chief = lead scout
Scouts
Hunting chief = lead hunter/ huntress
Hunters/ huntresses
Gatherers = foragers
Apprentices = same or trainees
Testers = seekers
Mothers
Children
Elders
