Schalltung: The People's Trinity

(very) Loosely based off the three castes common amongst European renessiance societies, except they aren't really castes. Ideally they're meritocracies. This one represents the rough version of the Equatorial Federation of Schalltung only. The North and South believe(d) in this too, but in a very different way and also a lot more grim than most Equatorials do.

Here's to more Schalltung lore

_________________________________________

The black priest (Priester) symbolizes the spirit of the people

The white medic (Heilbringer, not the modern German word for a medic XD) the knowledge of the people

And the grey rider or soldier (Ritter, they say rider instead of knight, Söldner if it's meant as an insult) the strength and handymanship of the people.

It's a trinity cause of course rows of three are still seen in various societies touched by Christianity as fortunate, lucky and special. The trinity of God has kind of morphed into a belief in your own people as the world moved towards rationalism and material essentialism in the Dark Age of Technology. Thus the father being the medic, the son being the rider and the holy spirit being the priest. This has been the most pronounced within what was Jermani-descendant societies from all around the galaxy. So much, that this belief spawned psychic powers on its own and this very knowledge needed a whole planet to get stored in, thus, all-temperate Schalltung near the Solar System was chosen to relieve every Jermani descent society ofr their records so that they may get rigorously archived.

(little did they nor any surviving Jermani successors know that they're especially susceptible towards psychic influence and that their shielding seems to be weaker than from Non Jermani cultures, especially when they're more invested in learning about their ancestral history.)

The People's Trinity often gets translated into various games, including a mix of chess and monopoly (i forgot how that game with the houses and tge four colors is called, here it's called Mensch-ärgere-dich-nicht), various extremely simplified tabletop games (as there's only three types and you're the ruler) and even a rock-paper-scissors variation.

It's rather common for the pride of someone working a 'white' job to hold your index finger up high - you've just got all the knowledge needed at your fingertip.

'Grey' workers often pump their fists in the air or do so whilst holding a representative tpol of their respective craft. Ie. a sword for a knight, a hammer or a saw for a carpenter etc.

'Black' workers put the flat palms of their hands together and either hold them high or hoist them up over and over again.

They do this as a sign of pride when they did something outstanding that will usually help the entire trinity of people and of course to roughly identify themselves.

_________________________________________

Grey workers include: handymen, construction workers, janitors, suppliers and deliverers of goods, soldiers, majority of psykers within,

White workers include: scientists, architects, professors, storage staff, archivists (for non moralizing records), a smaller contingent of psykers,

Black workers include: Caretakers, medical staff up to the chief doctor, orators, coaches, therapists, poets and writers, archivists (for moralizing records),

My dream fictional place to live?

MOOMINVALLEY

Moominvalley looks and seems like a peaceful place with welcoming and friendly people. There is absolutely no judgements nor bullying. Just what I need!

I would use my phone less often cause I would go on adventures with people in Moominvalley! Isn't that so cool? I would finally heal!

I decided to try expanding upon the lore of Saint Mayrilles

However, I'm kinda stumped on how to estimate the hypothetical age of this spear (The natives and citizens there call it a Laoush, idk of this spear has an irl counterpart)

This is a concept art, not a final yet
