Nightshade Herd
"We are the poison of the forest, we are the echoes that send chills up your spine, we are those not chosen by the divine."
Nightshade Herd Leader:
Felina Atropa and Belladona
Within the nightshade herd, we expect one to follow the rules of our queen. For us as a herd, we have allowances because our wise queen understands that while most of our species is vegan, we are the few who cannot function that way.
We are those who nearly died because we lacked the nutrition our mountain cat ancestors thrived on.
Proteins not found in our cultural way of life were needed to help us survive.
Some of us choose to drink the milk of our animal brethren. Respectful, never taking from the young.
Some choose to eat a few eggs of our animal friends to help with the population, as well as keep ourselves fit.
Some will do both, to sustain ourselves.
Some of us, are carnivores through and through. Not because we desired to break our culture's rules, but because we would die without it.
As our rules dictate, we are to use every piece of an animal we claim for rights of food. Their bodies are a gift of sacrifice to us. Allowing us to continue our deeds of goodwill and caring for the land and all its creatures.
We shall not feast upon newly born and defenseless, they are the next generation.
We shall not feast upon the weary mothers of the young.
We shall not feast upon the strong of the forest they are our protectors.
If a newly born, a weary mother, or a strong of the forest are to pass away from an injury, sickness, or another ordeal, we may give them their last rights and then claim their body for our herd.
We do no undue harm.
