Okay, firstoff, the correct name for the really big one is "Moose". The reason that it's correct is the same reason that the Pax Britannica was correct--the USA has the money and the guns and is psychotic enough to use them for no particular reason. This, if nothing else, makes us the natural heir to the British empire--emulating our forebears, no?
The above argument is equally as valid as any other broached on this list for the "correct" usages of "Moose" and "Elk" and "Red Deer".
Of course, that's only the scholars. My players and any normal folk they would talk to would call them "Those godawful damn-BIG Hsunchen!"
Anyway, everybody knows that Moose Hsunchen must be closely allied with a pygmy tribe--the Squirrel Hsunchen.
Both of these tribes are threatened by the machinations of two Lunar agents, a short man and a tall woman. They speak with thick Carmanian accents and constantly plot the destruction of the heroes of the two tribes.
