The Tribes of Sartar, 1625-1626

Posted on August 20, 2021

So there are 157 clans in Sartar (not including the Telmori and the Pol-Joni of course), with an average population of about 900 members. 600 are adults. The average tribe in Sartar has 6100 members, divided into about 7 clans.

The average Sartarite clan has about 600 adults. Of them 180 serve in the militia. About 40 adults belong to the clan aristocracy of priests and thanes (and their immediate family), about 400 are full free members, about 100 are semi-free tenants and dependents, and about 60 are unfree.

Of those 600 adults, about 200 are initiates of Orlanth, another 200 are initiates of Ernalda. 30 are initiates of Yelmalio, and 30 are initiates of the Seven Mothers. 18 are initiates of Issaries and 18 are initiates of Humakt. 12 each are initiates of Chalana Arroy, Lhankor Mhy, Daka Fal, and Storm Bull. There are 6 initiates each of Maran Gor, Babeester Gor, and Eurmal. There are another 30 initiates who fall into the none of the above category.

The Dundealos were displaced by the Lunars in 1618 and settlers were given their land in the Dundealos Valley. Most members of the tribe were exiled and joined with the closely related Pol-Joni tribe, with whom they claimed kinship. However, soon after the Dragonrise, the Dundealos returned to their valley with the aid of their Pol-Joni allies. That’s a blood-soaked valley with a lot of tragedy.
