Re: another bump
Funny, many of the charasteristics you mention could easily apply to Fenno-Ugrics as well (Mushrooms and herbalism, forest survival), and they also considered bears to be the most sacred of all animals as they represented ancestral spirits. So this could be reasonably applied to both, with the two nations then having other attributes that set them apart from each other.

Re: another bump
The finno-ugric and especially sami bear cult (together with the intriguingly similar ainu bear cult) is perhaps the most bear-dedicated one. The slavic cult seem less directed towards the bear in particular, and more towards the forest in general, with bears as a symbolic representation.
Bears will probably appear in one form or another.

Re: another bump
It's been a MONTH since any posted updates, so apparently not encouraged enough...

Re: another bump
Don't be harsh Badger, things may well be going on behind the scenes, and we've had plenty of patch-y goodness lately anyway.

Re: another bump
There has been some interesting activity which would not quite go onto that update page.

Re: another bump
The fact that nothing has been posted in publicly visible places does not mean that nothing is happening.

Re: another bump
I do realize that. I just feel somehow that we're not doing enough to inspire the Devs...

Re: another bump
See, I don't know how to interpret that.
