A Prydaen Hub is the central village within a given territory. There is only one Hub per territory and it is not uncommon for one Prydaen to leave one to live in another.

Hub Hierarchy

Claw (Eu/Demrris/Tenemlor) Member
Hold an equal voice with Elders and a Hub Leader, but hold final say on topics of religion if there are disagreements. Typically, a Hub has one member from each Claw that do not leave the Hub, but others may come and go. Not all Claw Members are Munan and a Claw Member may not be a Hub Leader.
Munan/Elder
Hold an equal voice with Claw members and a Hub Leader. May travel between Hubs or live on their own. Frequently hold positions as storytellers or teachers. Some Munan may be Claw Members or a Hub Leader.
Hub Leader
Hold an equal voice with Claw Members and Elders, but holds final say on topics of supplies and safety of a Hub/Territory as well as any decisions to move the Hub and territory. A Hub Leader is not always an Elder and may not be a Claw Member.
Kits
Held in the highest regard, the children within a Hub are protected by Hub Warriors before all others. Kits are tutored by Claw Members and Elders in group settings or one on one.
Prydaen Mothers
Those that are "soon to birth" and live within a Hub are held just below living kits, as their own child is yet to be born. Prydaen mothers are protected by Hub Warriors until they are able to leave the Hub, then their status reverts back to whatever it was before. Known to be wildly unpredictable, if a Prydaen mother is a Claw Member or a Hub Leader, an alternate is chosen to take their place until the mother is recovered. Mothers are not consulted on major decisions. These mothers are typically kept near the center of a Hub in a private area that visitors are not allowed into.
Hub Warriors
Protectors of all Hub members, their primary objective while within the Hub is to protect the children and expectant mothers. Warriors may come and go as they please, but there are always a handful within a Hub at all times. They typically work closely with the Hub Leader in matters of Hub safety.
Crafters/Claw of Azca
Holding a status just below Hub Warriors, the Crafters within a Hub work with the leftovers of kills to create needed items or items for trade. Crafters may or may not be Elders or members of Claw of Azca, but are never consulted on important matters of the Hub unless specific supplies are needed. The Hub Leader may make requests of these Prydaen, and the Crafters may accept or decline. Crafters come and go from a Hub or territory frequently and may not always have a home territory.
Visitors
Prydaen - Treated with respect and allowed into most areas within a Hub. Not allowed near kits.
Non-Prydaen - Commonly treated with great mistrust and not allowed into certain areas of a Hub.
