Ti'al
Overview
As with most factions across Idalos, the Oludïbọ Cïkäkkẹn feel the need to spread Moseke's teachings across Idalos. Moseke champions life and nature, balance between the world and mortals. The Cïkäkkẹn believe that Northeners have long since forgotten their relationship with the wild, electing to pursue evolution, technology, and commerce by destroying the world around them. In that process, the Northeners have lost a part of themselves. The Tì’al wish to restore the relationship to those they consider lost and overdeveloped.
Ubukoo was the most opinionated of The Original Five. He suggested, on more than one occasion, that he loved Moseke most of all. All others must love her as much as he did. With his exuberant love came a desire to share it with the rest of Idalos. After Desnind was created and initially stabilized, he made it his mission to travel to cities outside the region. Each journey brought more interested people to Desnind. Sev'ryn that were interested in traveling for Moseke joined the Tì’al. Others that were more interested in sharing Moseke's story internally spent their time teaching young Sevir about their Great Mother.
Those that go out into the world to spread Moseke's teachings are called T'ọhun. Those that elect to teach Sevir within the city about Moseke's love and the outside world are referred to as Yïyän. The Ítẹlẹ presides over both groups, focusing on the global setting to ensure that all parties are learning what is deemed appropriate by the Cïkäkkẹn.
Rank Requirements:
T'ọhun
This position requires moderator approval to join the Tì’al branch. Once accepted, this becomes the PC's job and requires minimal moderation. Although a second job can still be attained, it is recommended that a PC focus solely on their Cïkäkkẹn position. There are no specific requirements to elevate themselves. Skills that are recommended when becoming an T'ọhun include teaching, intelligence, seafaring, field craft, unarmed combat or weapon of choice, politics, navigation, and storytelling. Sevrath is the recommended blessing. Sojourn is a suggested blessing.
A T'ọhun can become a Yïyän at any point with moderator approval and a single moderated thread.
Yïyän
This position requires moderator approval to join the Tì’al branch. Once accepted, this becomes the PC's job and requires minimal moderation. Although a second job can still be attained, it is recommended that a PC focus solely on their Cïkäkkẹn position. There are no specific requirements to elevate themselves. Skills that are recommended when becoming an Yïyän include teaching, intelligence, politics, linguistics, dancing, singing, musical instrument, mathematics, and writing. Sevrath is the recommended blessing. Xypha is a suggested blessing.
A Yïyän can become a T'ọhun at any point with moderator approval and a single moderated thread.
Ítẹlẹ
This position requires moderator approval and several moderated threads. The Ítẹlẹ is the hardest of the Cïkäkkẹn leadership positions to acquire due to the immense levels of intercity knowledge a PC might require. Their skills are somewhat dependent on which branch they originally came from, but the Ítẹlẹ is expected to have participated in both at some point in their life. High levels in the following skills are expected of the Dabi Imọvi:
- Teaching
- Leadership
- Intelligence
- Politics
- Five of the following: Linguistics, Mathematics, Singing, Dancing, Musical Instrument, Writing, Seafaring, Navigation, Field Craft, Unarmed Combat or Weapon of Choice
The Ítẹlẹ should be well on their way to becoming an Exalted Sevrath. Xypha and Sojourn are optional blessings. The intent is for the PC to become one of Moseke's champions and lead Desnind as one of The Five.
