warrior status without head-hunting |

With the ending of head-hunting a Chang gets warrior's status if he kills a mithan and feasts the village or kills a tiger. These give him full warrior's status. Can wear a dao with a red handle - a red spear - a white dao case - boar's tushes - but only if a man takes a head can he get the warrior's tattoo SKETCH |
