Rattataki

A gladiatorial people who believe in might making right, they are stratified by tribes and organized by laws. Many of their laws are named for famed warriors, warlords of castes descending from their early subterranean evolution. Earlier history was carried in verbal tradition, and largely apocryphal from tribe to tribe, and caste to caste.

Many of their oldest laws are actually traditions established by warriors of station.

Adarus' Law: A warrior will always escort a woman of higher caste, and defend honor with life.

Justik's Law: An interested man will sleep outside the door of a woman of station, hoping to earn her favor by protecting her door from intruders (or other suitors) until she relents and admits him.
