The last post in this folder was one year and 6 days ago. This makes me sad. Can we get a little erithi love?

You'll get some love soon I hope. Soooo many festivals, sooooo little time. So, what would be a direction you would like to see them go?

"Mother should I trust the Government?"

I thought it was always apparent that they drew inspiration from Asian cultures for this race. Even leading up to its release, Melissa touted it as such. Even the kata in question, assuming you're referring to the Tgara katana scripts, were released shortly after the new races themselves were.

Regardless, I hardly think they're a "carbon copy" aside from some naming conventions, their weaponry (going hand-in-hand with their styles of fighting), and a few small aspects of their culture.

Okay,(puts on a flak jacket to handle the fall out from ideas and misspellings),we were asked for suggestion on how we want the race to go. So someone has to actually give some.Most start races with what the upper classes are like,I'm starting with the lower classes.The farmers, what they produce determines what is eaten and what is sold in racial shops.
As most of my Erithi claim to come from the outpost near Zul Logoth,and one is a farmer of the Tichan Dai. I will suggest what the Dai's farms are like and see how much gets shot down.I see them as using and intergrated system of terraced fields and ponds, combining both agriculture and aquaculture.Having both Cash and Stapple crops, like hops and barley to sell to the dwarves(in exchange for stonework in the terraces and buildings),to stapples like cattail pollen amd lotus root and edible flowers.
In the ponds and pools they have made, they keep schools of trout amd other fish herded by herons trained like sheep dogs, and asorted ducks,geese and swans(hmmm,I wonder if the outpost has an Uncle Si).With pea hens and some form of guenea hen and goats(as cashmere blankets have been sold cashmere goats make a good fit here them being in mountains) as for draft animals I was thinking some kind of trained moose to handle both land and aqua work( as water buffalo are too asian and would give Ismano fits)
