The Sousesne (soo-ses’-nee) are an agrarian and hunter/gatherer people that traverse a grand plain land of rolling hills and flat plateaus called the Endless Souse Grasslands. It is a land full of numerous animal herds, whose migration patterns they follow as a constant food source. The Sousesne gather in tribal communities of six to eight dozen family units. Generally, they live in hide tipis for easy relocation as they follow the migrating herds. When suitable food supplies and fresh water are consistently available in a particular area, more permanent earth lodges are built to house extended family members. The Sousesne tribes primarily travel by horse, though walking and use of buffalo are not uncommon.
