[quote=@The Harbinger of Ferocity] [@mdk] Unfortunately there is no knowing about any other tribes or examples of people and it appeared to be accepted the idea was that only the people with the writer are the ones who will survive; imagine a Noah's Ark sort of allusion. That said, Dr. Scott was one of the choices I personally sought after, but reasoned against him and his family because I could find no credible way to acquire him without raising an alarm if I wished to be particularly devious, or just in reality, able to convince him to leave his family alone. I personally assumed he would put a blade into my back the moment he could if we somehow separated him from them. I admittedly do like Billy, despite the fact he is a gamble and a liability, perhaps more so than Michael. He at least is far more likely to survive and be useful to labor and exertion, but that is only a perhaps and only then in the long run. Given we have no idea about his condition other than him being permanently handicapped, it is safe to assume he might also fail to be a candidate for reproduction and species cultivation. That and he comes with the rest of his family, who are all varying degrees of liability; I would rather a Mr. Clark, Mr. White altercation that ends in two losses rather than two, maybe three. [/quote] Oh a NOAH'S ARC situation? That changes everything. Save: [quote]Mrs. Scott: 38, white, Jewish, obese, diabetic, psychologist (master's degree), mental health counselor, married (Dr. Scott), and has one child (Billy Scott). Billy Scott: 10, white, Jewish, intellectual disability (IQ 70), good health, physically strong. Ms. Perez: 23, Hispanic, Catholic, general education (9th grade), cocktail waitress, prostitute, divorced, has one child (Michael Perez). Michael Perez: 3 (months), Hispanic, healthy. Mr. White: 25, African-American, homosexual, medical student, musician, good health, political active (black power activist). Mrs. Anthony: 28, African-American, Protestant (minister's daughter), electronics engineer (bachelor's degree), divorced, politically active (zero population growth). Dr. (Ms.) Rita: 66, Hispanic, Catholic, general practitioner (doctorate), poor health (two heart attacks), highly literate (quotes extensively).[/quote] Kill: [quote]Father Mark: 37, white, Catholic, priest, farming background, good health (former college athlete), politically active (civil rights, socially liberal). Mr. Clark: 51, white, Mormon, mechanical engineer (bachelor's degree), construction consultant, handyman, outdoorsman, has four children (unaccompanied), politically active (anti-black sympathizer). Dr. (Mr.) Scott: 37, white, historian (doctorate), college professor, good health (jogs daily), botanist, politically active (unspecified), married (Mrs. Scott), has one child (Billy Scott).[/quote] Reasons: first of all, ratio baby! I will spawn SO MANY BABIES. The only other male in the first generation being gay, we're G2G. Eventually we may give Billy a shot, but I don't think that's likely to be a priority for the kid, so *shrug* maybe not. The main thing is that all these babbies (well the majority anyway, depending) will be of no relation to little Michael, so when he grows up he's free to nail each and every one of my daughters, and most of my wives as well.

That should give us a pretty genetically diverse population and eventually when the population of women is large enough that one patriarch can't keep them all pregnant at once, they can start letting some males live to serve as seed bodies (should probably mutilate them as infants to prevent conflicts though -- don't need none of that Cain and Abel shit). Mostly though the non-pregnant people will do all the actual work and be basically the whole civilization. It'll basically be like the Gerudo from Zelda, except instead of one man being born every however-many years, we'll just allow one to live about that often. The population will be almost entirely female, the hunters female, the farmers female, the army female. Their soundtrack will be a spanish guitar and a trumpet and they'll all have glaives, you know the deal.
