Panchayyah 101

The Panchayyah are a tribe group I play in a game of interactive fiction on a world called Celandra where players act as entire Societies as opposed to individuals.

The Panchayyah are wild forest dwellers who worship snakes. I barrow heavily from Meso-American influences as well as some Indian and African cultures. 

Some of the other societies that I reference are 

Kaier: a long time friend of the tribes, and active merchantile culture

Milakanur: hated enemies a slave-holding desert tribe

The Bhaktim are supernaturally powerful serpents who are ambasadors of the snake god.
