Oceanian Creatures

Oceanian entries cover archipelagos where voyaging canoes, reefs, and volcanic peaks shape creature encounters. Roles include navigator, reef guardian, storm sign, and healer at springs and breadfruit groves. Symbols feature canoe prows, tattoo patterns, shell ornaments, carved posts, and kava or coconut vessels used in offering. Stories travel along sea lanes and clan networks, so cards record transliteration and regional titles from oral histories. Themes include ancestry, hospitality, and the obligations of hosts and travelers along lagoon and open ocean routes.
