You know that friend I was RPing with our Predators/Yautja? Oh yeah, we’re deep in worldbuilding, baby. While we know that Predators are often presented in their hunting armor and gear, I like to see it as a practical set much like our modern human combat armor is. It’s light, it’s tough, it’s sleek, and does what it needs to do. But, back in Yautja Prime, we’ve allowed their natural culture and social structures to rise based on what we do know of canon lore so far. Keep in mind that no major species’ civilizations are the same across its entire planet and set in stone. Much like we find VAST diversity in human culture depending on location, social structures, history, religions, mythos, etc… We have to allow Yautja the same courtesy. Meaning that some areas of Yautja Prime may reflect one aspect of their culture more strongly, others may favor another. Some may be more down to earth and wordly, others more technologically inclined and modern. Blood, Hunt, and Honor are the canopy of a very old tree rooted by long, branching roots. Above are the Honor Guard for the Council of Matriarchs, and the Council of Elders. The Matriarchs tend to mostly on-world matters, the Elders to off-world matters. This is based on a belief called the Three Bloods.From the RP:[”The Council of Matriarchs dealt with on-world matters because females were the First Blood of any yautja. Blood of the womb. Males dealt with off-world matters because they were often a yautja’s Second Blood, the blood of battle and the hunt. All yautja spent their entire life proving themselves for their next Blood. First, to survive after the womb, violent and uncertain and marked with danger outside of their control. Then through strict discipline and training to become Blooded and spill their own upon their brow to make their mark. The First and Second Blood. It was then the responsibility of both Councils to ensure that all yautja could earn their Third Blood - the blood of death.
The Third Blood was not judged by Elders or Matriarchs, but by the gods.”]I designed the Honor Guard to reflect Native Middle and South American culture as a quiet nod to the original Alien versus Predator 2004 movie.We hope you enjoy!](https://pics.onsizzle.com/isei-silva-you-know-that-friend-i-was-rping-with-our-72547459.png)

[ID: A quote from the Twilight Mirage arc of Friends at the Table, illustrated with art in shades of blue. “Since the first grain silo, cathedral, ship, computer,” the quote begins, over drawings of a grain silo, cathedral, rocket ship, and computer servers. “Since the first time we put pen to page— we have always made things different from ourselves,” it continues, the words appearing to be written with a fountain pen, a typewriter, and a word processor. The next couple lines are written over a picture of outer space, several spacecrafts and a city-ship flying through the stars: “For a long time we thought we were building mirrors. But now we know better: We were setting fires.” This last line is illustrated with a image of three planets drawn to resemble a glitching screen. /end ID]](https://pics.onsizzle.com/since-the-first-grain-silo-cathedral-ship-computer-singe-the-67074480.png)

If you're under 25 you could
shake up everything we
know about politics just by
voting. All the predictions we
have about this election are
based on the idea that you
won't vote. Under 25s could
transform this country and
one would even see it coming
