Qabuux (concept)
One categorization of Damota's Lodges, the qabuux have perhaps differenciated the most from their predecessors. Having taken root amongst the rural people of Damota, the qabuux dramatically shifted over the centuries, transitioning into clanlike associations. Multiple families will form a qabuux, generally constructing a large central building in which to live, surrounded by a sizable communal farm. Within the qabuux, bonds are tight, and other members are considered to be family members. While many are little more than single buildings surrounded by crops, others have grown massively, with multiple outbuildings and vast expansions onto the original structure, with some even having spawned towns nearby.
The relations between qabuux are convoluted, with an ever-shifting network of alliances, rivalries, and negotiations forming a miniature replica of feudal politics, and their role within the lives of those surrounding them cannot be understated.
