When Charalin youth reach the age of thirteen, they are turned out into
the wild with nothing more than a knife. They to survive on their own wits
for the entire span of Elliuh (approx. 31 days) to prove that they have
the survival skills necessary to be an adult on the Plains.

Until Elliueh becomes full, the Charali youth may not begin to track and
pursue their families. During this time, it is their task to clothe
themselves, creating weapons and gain some coup or honor in pursuit of
their name. As Elliueh begins to wax or wane, depending o when the cycle
started, the youth may begin to make their way through the wilds towards
their family. When they arrive, they are met with a greater celebration
than the day they entered the world. There is no birthday, but a naming
day, when the Boy or Girl gains their place in the tribe as an adult. By
gaining this, they are able to speak their opinion within their clan and be
counted among the warriors when battle is called.

As a rule, a Charalin's surname is often the name of their birth mother.
Their Charalin name, given to them on their Naming Day, is secondary to
their mother's. Charali will often have a Davite name given or taken by
them as well to make their passage through the Western territory easier.
When a Charalin introduces himself or herself to a westerner, they will
often say, "I am (order of birth)(son or daughter) of (mother), (Davist
name)." It is rare to divulge their true Charalin name to an outsider.

Sometimes the name given or taken by a Charali marks their place in
society.
