With all the animalistic influence in one place, the Naldahi have developed a system to keep the aggression in check. Recreational violence helps to keep tempers from escalating to a dangerous level. They have developed a martial art system they call Tek’ha comprised of wrestling, strikes with the hands, elbows and knees, and (when applicable) the use of claws and teeth. Disputes are settled in the form of personal duels using this form of martial art but with much less restraint. Often the result of these duels can result in the maiming of individuals if not magically treated.
