[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9494254, member: 58172"] The "fantasy formula" is to take something familiar, and combine it with an element that is unfamiliar. In this case, adding a horse culture to a far north Indigenous nation. Some Indigenous nations in the south developed horse cultures, such as Souix. The Wegwiur and Chakyik lack any "khan" and seem non-Islamesque in their descriptions. I would assume they are animists, tho the Hunting Land people are more clearly animists. Inuit are understood to be relatively recent immigrants from Siberia, displacing Dorset during the medieval period, albeit I want to be cautious here about the precise origins. Baklun (Baklunish Basin) is geographically Siberia, and perhaps there is connection between fantasy Baklun and reallife Baikal, the prominent lake in Siberia north of Mongolia. There might be connection between the Chakyik, and the Chukotka region of Siberia. [/QUOTE]
