New Tubori racial help files

[Dice]

I've long been troubled by a feeling that the Tubori help files we have paint Tubor as a tropical paradise, without highlighting the negative aspects of their free-wheeling culture - freedom, by Lithmorran standards, yet also selfishness and corruption. As such, I've embarked on rewriting the helpfiles to something more balanced and, I think, more interesting.

Comments/suggestions?

This is fantastic stuff. Manages to make it feel like a truly alien culture (which it should), while remaining approachable and RPable.

If I made a suggestion it would be to include something about piracy. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be an over-arching theme with Tubori, but a lot of folks seem to make use of it with Tubori PCs. And it's pretty nifty. (Edit: Also kind of serves to support the "us first, everyone else irrelevant" mindset. Takes it to an extreme, but still!).

Absolute favorite: Addressing the expert-level sand. Those who RP with me often know that the price of sand is an ongoing trope.

Loving it a lot, that is the only comment I can add

Fantastic stuff! Adding the element of caring very fiercely about one's family and loved ones, but not extending that care to strangers, is a very fine addition that quite well compliments Tubori culture as it's currently established.

I added a bit of comment in the gender bias section - let me know what you think!

Added a little about piracy, gendered pronouns/fluidity, and Vandagan export of ice to the isles!

If you wanted Tubor to be my new favorite region, you couldn't have writen a better doc.

I miss it being Newfoundland.

I love these so much. I mean they pretty much describe what I always imagined tubori to be, but now it's official. I mean when I was reading it it's like I was reading about my tubori character, which is a plus.

The best part is I don't have to change my character to conform to these standards.

As an aside, I have been talk with a couple of the other Tubori (since there seems to be a surge of interred in this duchy) and it may be worthwhile to write some help files about shipping/navy in Urth.
