Clan
There are three levels of court to the justice clan:
Orfi, where those who've committed a grievous crime such as murder or murdering intent, major thievery, and extreme traitorous actions.
Alegat, for those who protest their sentence from either Orfi or Armilat court and wish to negotiate.
Armilat, where ranks such as pride protection to sentencing for petty crimes occur.
Muktar (Orfi level) x1
Muktar serves as a judge for those who have committed a major crime. When murder is involved, however, the Sheikh and maybe even the Sheikha will make an appearance to also assist in deciding the right punishment.
Ghadi (maybe Alegat level) x3
Ghadi, usually working as a council of three, take into an account the protests of those sentenced either by the Armilat or the Orfi. They delve more into the situation and consider all the facts before deciding whether to lessen the punishment or not. However, a Ghadi must seek approval from the Sheikh on changes for death and lifelong servitude punishments.
Jrabiee (Armilat level) x5
The judges of the armilat level. They pass judgement among those who commit petty crimes, mostly by sentencing them a certain amount of time as a slave. They have no power to sentence someone to death or lifelong servitude. However, they can, rarely, rule corporal punishment.
Manshaad (Armilat level) x2
The 'punisher'. They carry out the punishments that are sentenced, whether by killing murders, handing out physical punishments, or overseeing the slaves. Usually a male with extraordinary amount of strength; position can be challenge every month by a Adraybee through dueling.
Adraybee (Armilat level) x5
The 'messengers' of the justice system, they are usually sent to deliver a summoning to an individual. If a summoned individual decides against making an appearance or attempts to flee, the adraybee are required to catch, detain, and when requested, deliver the individual. These in this position require strength and wit. When a position opens, there is a time period in which a Kabir may apply, at the end of which a dueling competition between all applicants is held.
Kabir (Armilat level) x∞
The 'militia' part of the clan. Their main duties are to protect the members of the pride from external dangers, be it natural or another pride. They usually scout ahead, check the perimeters, and stand watch in the night.
Kafeel (Armilat level) x∞
They are the 'law enforcers' of the clan for internal affairs. They break up disputes, catch criminals such as thieves and murders, and assure the peace among fellow tribe members.
Clan
'market overseer' x1
Keeps an eye on the merchants who sell their goods and turns thieving individuals. Also oversees the taxes and fair distribution of goods.
'craft merchant' x-
Sells handcrafted goods such as pottery and jewelry or traded goods such as pelts to travelers and prides encountered. They sometimes venture outside of the tribe in order to sell goods in distant lands, returning once profit is made. Usually very witty and charismatic.
'food merchant' x-
Sells portioned meats, fruits, nuts, and other various foods that are gathered or traded. For pridal members, produce is usually marked down lower. However, to outsiders, food merchants tend to be a bit more shrewd and have a great knack for bargaining.
'artisan' x∞
Creates goods such as jewelry, pelts, pottery, and other such things for 'craft merchants' to sell. They sell, trade, or make a deal with the 'craft merchants' for goods made to make a profit. They either buy resources from a 'gatherer' or own a slave.
'cooks'(not really cooks but best term for now) x∞
Buys food from a 'hunter' or owns a 'slave'. They divide the food in proportions and deem the best quality of food at present. They also butcher meat, selling the edible parts to 'food merchants' and resources, such as fat or pelt, to 'artisans'.
'hunters' x∞
Hunts for meats and other edible resources for the pride, either to receive a pay cut from a 'cook' or to provide from the tribe in general. A common occupation for most males who have a family.
'gatherers' x∞
Scavenges for valuables and usable resources, they provide the materials needed for 'artisans' to make their goods. 'gatherers' have the largest variety of types, which contain specialties such as gem finding, wood collecting, and treasure scavenging, among others. Some 'gatherers' obtain their loot by less desirable means, stealing from the unwary traveler; however, theft among pride members is not acceptable.
'slaves' x∞
Those who are sentenced to a small amount to a lifetime amount of servitude. Slaves are generally used for gathering food or resources, without expecting a pay. They are sometimes bought by higher ranks, providing a free labor. Female slaves are generally used more through pleasure; some females opt for this route to quickly pay for their debts, others sentenced due to unfaithful behavior or lose their irt before 'pair-mating'. Slaves who are unclaimed by higher ranks are generally used to provide for the tribe.
