Tribe founding
It started with a single kin, willing to throw everything away for the chance to learn more. A kin who, even when faced with being branded a traitor and death, decided to wander from the swamp in search of stories from the kin from out of the swamp. It was fortunate then, for the kin, that they were ill prepared for the journey, and collapsed in the border lands. This kin may well have died there too, either from starvation or from heartache knowing they were leaving the swamp. But a totoma happened by, one of broad shoulders and strong back. The toma carried the kimeti back to the swamp. When the kin awoke, the toma asked what brought the kimeti out here. Hearing that they were searching for stories and histories of the other kin, the toma began telling what few stories they could from back in the mountains. Mostly, they were of other totoma earning their names. But the kin was hooked, needing more stories. The toma decided to help, since the kimeti could not easily leave the swamp, the toma would bring stories from the mountains.
Eventually, word spread that there were kin searching for the histories and legends of the other kin, and those with the same passion would soon find themselves seeking each other out to share their stories.

Joining
The tribe isn’t picky about who comes and goes. Joining is easy, just come with a story. (note: This will require any applicant to make up a story about the swamp, and hopefully encourage world building.) The stories don’t have to be elaborate, but they do have to be entertaining. If a kin is accepted, their mission from then on is to gather stories from all reaches of the swamp, and beyond if they can.
Loyalty
No one could care less if you were a part of other tribes, as long as you don’t discriminate among Tell-Tale members. In fact, they encourage the joining of other tribes to share tales with them, and learn about each tribe, where each kin came from. Just as long as you swing on by their base camp once in a while to share the stories. Children born into the tribe are not expected to stay with them. It’s always greatly enjoyed should a young one find a passion for story telling, but the tribe won’t force any to stay with them.
Opinion on others
The tribe accepts all kin from all walks of life. In fact, they crave meeting kin from outside the swamp to expand their knowledge and stories. They believe all kin came from the swamp, and thus are welcome to return. It’s their belief that the swamp will only grow stronger with the return of the outland kin.
