[edit] Tribes

Ocean Tribe: First tribe to appear on the surface of Lynarra, lived underwater most of the time

Reef Tribe: One of the first few tribes, can live on the shoreline, and in shallow water and other moist places

Swamp Tribe: Another early tribe, built mud homes and hunted animals such as Gonells (green lizardlike animals) and Teffeltons (Chicken like animals)

Jungle Tribe: A tribe with small members, isolated and hunt mainly birds including the Teffelton

Desert Tribe: A tribe with very fierce hunters. They hunt a bird called the Archeopixal and a few rat like animals like the Felf

River Tribe: A tribe that settled near the river and fish there, they hunt a fish called Ralmenel

Forest Tribe: A tribe that use the forest for their food and hunt deer like animals called Vevikelks and hunt berries called Dreckaberries

Grassland Tribe: A very tall tribe, they hunted Teffeltons and Vivikelks, first to invent farming

Mountain Tribe: A tribe that hunts elk like animals called Bretuves, and they first invented animal transportation

Cave Tribe: A tribe that lives in the caves. Mostly gather gather Dreckaberries but will also hunt Vivikelks

Highland Tribe: A extreme tribe that lives on the eastern cliffs, hunt Archeopixals and a few fish such as Kefihal

[edit] Setting

On the largest continent's (called Fiirudda) nearby sea called the Driyub Sea, and the Werit Bay. Also an island called Zedifar.

[edit] Prehistoric Times

The Ocean Tribe was dominant, they were just getting the first breaths of air. This is about the Ocean Tribe mostly, although there will be much more next time in the Stone Age, like religion.

[edit] Hunting

The Ocean Tribe were the fastest swimmers, but the slowest runners. They usually chased fish like the Ralmenel and Grutib in a chasing manner, and eventually would catch the astonished fish and slash it. Sometimes a small group would corner it into a patch of seaweed, and then slash it with their sharp claws to kill the fish, the Ralmenal did not have any scales, however the Grutib did have scales that peeled off of the fins in order to make themselves look much larger. The group of three or four then swam it back to the nest, which was a patch of large seaweed. They would then cut the fish which was actually pretty large, and share with older, younger and weak Hessletifes.

[edit] Housing

The Ocean Tribe would take a very large patch of seaweed and patch it down onto the sea floor. They would then send the fastest Hessletifes out to take out more seaweed for the top of the nest. The stronger Hessletifes would be gathering rocks that would hold the nest down. Then the extra seaweed would be installed around the nest into ceilings and extra rooms. Then there wold be some cleanup and beautification such as taking out seaweed that won't stick and adding seashells, with looked like this: " TT ". When it was time to exit the current home they would bust open the ceiling and leave the shelter.

[edit] Gathering

The Ocean Tribe also gathered food to eat, they didn't just hunt. They used the type of seaweed called Fretiba for building, since it was thicker. The type of seaweed called Wrett was easier to chew and easier to cut of the bottom, which poisonous to the Hessletifes. They also sometimes took a red berry like plant that grew underwater called a Zenig. The Zenig was rare, but healthy, and also very easy to chew.

[edit] Domestication of Verifers

The Verifer was a smart carnivorous swimming amphibian. They used to attack the Hessletifes, but since they domesticated the Verifer, they have acted friendly. They are important in pack hunting. They don't have very strong jaws, but are fast swimmers. When pack hunting, Verifers would swim in front of a fish, scaring it, causing to turn around right into the waiting Hessletifes, which would slash the fish. They are also very loyal, and pay attention. They live about 24 years (about 21 years Earth time).

[edit] Stone Age

In this age, other tribes broke off from the Ocean Tribe and went to land. These include the Reef, Swamp, Jungle, Forest, Desert and River Tribes. They started to be civilized, and lived in quaint little villages in various homes. Start of Calendar. (Before sapience -> First sapience -> Civilization sapience -> Interstellar sapience

[edit] Nesting & Buildings

Date: 0 F.S.

The Reef Tribe had homes that were like Beaver dams. The would use the sturdy branches of Heogi Trees and the hides of Gonells. Then would stack the tree braches on the shoreline and they would end in the water. There would be an entrance in a front and the back.

The Swamp Tribe has a base of Heogi Trees which were slathered with mud and reeds. There was one entrance in the front of the hut, and the inside was decorated with leaves, ferns and roots. There would be a hole in the top of the hut in hot months, and that would be covered up when it got cold.

The Jungle Tribe typically lived in the tree branches of the tall and sturdy Reckka Trees. The Tribal Members would go collecting large leaves of a plant called a Serin. They would then use sap from trees to stick them together into a sphere which would be perched on a branch.

The Forest Tribe took a base of two trees, typically Reckka, although some war huts used Heogi, a more light tree, instead. They would then prop up branches and then cover them will sticks. They would then hollow out a door, and after that they would place leaves on top.

The Desert Tribe built cliff dwellings. Their homes looks a lot like a rock on stilts. They would carve out a soft rock called a Quernnen and then use the rare trees on the landscape to help support the rock's weight. Then they would carve entrances in the bottom and front, and slip a carved ladder down the bottom.

The River Tribe built dwellings were there were three poles that were in the river. Then a deck and a dome like house were placed on top of the stilts. A ladder was installed in between two of the poles, and then an entrance was cut out near the ladder.

[edit] Stone Tools

500 F.S.

About 500 (600 Earth Years) Deffs later, the Desert Tribe found out how to carve and use Stone Tools, while at the same the time the Reef Tribe found out about Coral Tools, and the Ocean Tribe caught on a very short time later. Within 100 (120 Earth Years) Deffs, all tribes were carving Stone Tools, mainly using them for a new task called Irrigation. The Tribes were also very peaceful with each other and did not use the new invention for weapons to attack each other. The Stone tools would be only used for three tasks, plowing which came to sight rather recently after the invention of these Stone tools. They also used them for Irrigation, and would drag the moor thick tools around the Flood Plains, which would then Irrigate the land, making more food. This further advanced plowing, and farming was just coming to light. The final thing was furniture, and the tribes would use animal fur, tree sap, and stone together to make actually soft furniture items, but were typically only used in the main hut, although there was also usually one or two pieces in an ordinary Hessletife's house.

[edit] Discovery of Fire

725 F.S.

One day, A Desert Tribe Citizen was experimenting with two sticks, which are made out of the same flaming organic matter as the ones on Earth, scratched them together, and they created a spark. The Citizens did it again and is flamed. This was the beginning of fire. Like the Stone tools, Fire was not used for weapons, but instead used for the coming Religion, and for ridding the terrain of trees or bushes, the Jungle Tribe however did not adopt fire, because knocking down the trees would not do anything except destroy their homes. They continued to only their now-made-of a substance about 4/5 the hardness of Diamond called Ferond, instead of Quernnen. They could now hack away at the things they did not want much faster, so they didn't want or need fire very much.

[edit] Irrigation

835 F.S

Early Irrigation had started centuries earlier. This was the more modern concept of Irrigation.
