	Individual romances are not very formalized. Though some claim 'marriages' or 'life bonds', the leadership of the Prometheans afford no official recognitions. Unofficially, people do recognize and respect announced romances, though do grow tired of anyone whom announces them too frequently. Promiscuity is a sign of degradation, especially when one is convinced they have found their 'one and only' every week.		Individual romances are not very formalized.

	Group romances are more common by far than before the fall. Family groups of several adults may commit to a communal romance. Despite their insistence, Prometheans are not beyond human failings. Many such groups do eventually fall apart to feelings of jealousy between its members, but not all. In the end, individual or group, romance is something one has to put real effort into, and that has nothing to do with being a Promethean.		Group romances are more common by far than before the fall.

	'''Survivalists''' Sequestered remnants of a dead age. They show admirable self control and ~~perservation~~, and they admire our control in return. Approach with your hands in view and speak slowly. They are not unkind people, simply frightened. They are no threat to our plans, as holed up as they are. Their fear of action is their weakness.

	'''NUTS''' The military. Where were they when the fires of Prometheus rained on us? They failed then, they remain a failure now. Avoid them, they have dangerous tools, and no control in their use.

	'''Zephyr''' They were involved in bringing the change on us. We owe them some, small, thanks for it, but do not speak it. They are dangerously deluded. They are ruled by inhuman gods that care nothing for their fate or minds. They will overwhelm with numbers. They wield dangerous technologies. They work for 'science', and science has little room for our people. They bring death to our Feral kin without remorse. We cannot allow them victory. If they win, their ultimate act of terrorism will be rewarded with rulership of the world. We act as agents of karma, denying them sovereignty over a world they destroyed.

	It is too easy to consider yourself 'less than' man, so far removed as to be immune to social requirement or grace. The Promethean way is not one of savagery. Clothing is a symbol of our grace and dignity. Jewelry shows the personality of the wearer. Garb yourself in the trappings of our new society, do not abandon civility in the face of the beast's urges.

	==== Family Structure ====		== Family Structure ==

	Prometheans, as a whole, are loose about their family requirements. New Dawn has a child crèche, where people who are inclined may instruct, care, and guide the youth of the society. Those who have children may surrender their child to the crèche and give no further thought to it, if they so wish. It is considered a mark of maturity to accurately gauge one's ability to bear responsibility. Better to give up a child to good care, then to 'soldier on' and deliver poor care personally. Still, there is special prestige afforded to one who can be a good father or mother while not shirking Promethean duties, but such people are less common.
