To be a successful Greenfinger, you must first understand the intricacies of our race's familial structure. As you will already be aware, there are no other central figure in Floran culture and as such a Greenfinger must act as the tribe's authority figure.

Florans will always respect a Greenfinger that protects their tribe, regardless of their age or experience, for respect among our kind is awarded to those who show strength.

For example, even a very young Floran with great hunting skills will be regarded highly by their peers.

Many Greenfingers lack strength and as such use their cunning to appear strong. Outsmarting others and paying close attention to the shifting hierarchy in your tribe will allow you to get ahead of those who are influential among your people.

Having been a Greenfinger for many years I can attest that good behaviour is key to the survival of a Floran tribe. First and foremost, I would advise discouraging any cannibalistic tendencies, which most often arise during funeral rituals.

This tradition is giving Floran a bad name amongst the other peoples of the universe.

Also, try to not fight with other tribes.

I'm sure it might feel like a good idea, but our best chance is for Floran to unite against the external forces that threaten us from beyond the stars.

Encourage your Floran kin to focus their energy into growing the size of the tribe, for there is safety in numbers!
