Element rune spread of the Praxian tribes

Recommended Posts

A question over on the G+ group from Olivier Dubreuhas prompted this post. Olivier asked "Cannot a Sable have an Earth rune ? Why ?... Some clarification would be useful, to me at last."

One of the early things I started doing for the Prax book was looking at the makeup of what the Praxians are from the bottom up. First I looked at the populations, the cult info from Cults of Prax and any other relevant info that was available. This all ended up in a giant spreadsheet. Every so often I go back and tweak it as a new piece of info appears or @Jeff says - "that doesn't look right we need to change it." It's been pretty sable for three years now. One of the tables is the rune spread of the tribes and hopefully it answers Olivier's question:

Major Tribes only

10% of all Praxian men have the Storm Rune, except the Bison where it is their major rune and so 94%. 2% of all Praxian women have it.

10% of all Praxian women have the Earth Rune, except the Bison where it is their major rune and so 94%. 2% of all Praxian men have it.

85% of Impala men & women, 43% of Sable men & women have the Fire rune, everyone else 1%

85% of Morokanth men & women have the Darkness rune, everyone else 1%

85% of High Llama men & women have the Water rune, everyone else 1%

85% of Morokanth men & women have the Darkness rune, everyone else 1%

43% of Sable men & women have the Moon rune, everyone else 1%

This for guidance for NPCs and does not to reflect PC makeup.

Earth is the Rhino nation rune. So do the men of that tribe have that rune?

Yes, 86% of Men & 94% of women have the Earth rune. 

Storm rune 10% for men & 2% for women. All other elements at 1%

Good and usefull job, thanks. I thought about opening a post abotu that topic here as well :). So the indications in the HQ:G rulebook are only... indicative.

Yes, HQG is an introduction to get you playing. It's not the Praxian sourcebook.

Do you think there is any consequence for a Praxian to have a minority rune ?

None what so ever. That's how it's written and how I play it.

Do non-Earth women worship at the Paps?

Everyone goes to worship at the Paps when it's their time. It's not limited by your runes. This is the most sacred place in the Wastelands sacred to Eiritha and Waha.

What spirits do the Impala women hold dear?

The most popular cult amongst Impala women is Eiritha (21000), followed by Daka Fal & Helpwoman (9000 each), The Burners and Sky Gazers (7500 each), then the Seven Mothers (900), Vinga (384), then a load of small cults at less than 150 each.
