Cultural Data:

Originaly created as soldier/slaves for a long lost civilisation that fell when they became too dependant on their technology and slaves.

they have learned from the old ledgends of "the time before" about the race that created them. They are strongly opposed to slavery and decadance and will shun those who practice such things.

Ability is prized and great social standing is given to people who are talented scientists, soldiers, workers, artists or diplomats.

Honor and face are also important in Olympian Society and it is considered to be a crime to break an oath.

The basic unit of Olympian Society is the clan, it is an extended family unit that can include up to 500-1000 members.

If a clan becomes larger than this size it will split into two clans , these splits are usually done amicably and they remain on good relations with each other.

A clan is typically made up of the descendants of a particularly famous person and

Clans typically live in a small town or village but several clans of the same tribe will often come together and found a city.

Polygamy is common in Olympian society and males take a new wife every ten years of their adult life until age fifty.

The first marriage is customary for a boys first wife to chosen by his clan for him on his tenth birthday and he has a double marriage at age 20 when he chooses a second wife and marries the first wife his clan chose for him. Men and women are free to choose any partner they like and they may refuse an arranged match but this is seen as an insult to the clan and is not common.

Society Structure

Family -> Clan (100-500 members) -> Tribe (Up to 500,000 members) -> Nation
