Line 2:
A society has a ritual challenge system that determines who's strong enough to be the leader.
There can be variations on how ritualized the challenge is. Sometimes a spontaneous fight could occur and then everybody makes sure everybody else hangs back to let the two [[
You'll also get wider variations on the effect on the plot. For instance, in a case which has shades of [[You Kill It, You Bought It]], it may be an outsider, often [[Mighty Whitey]], becomes chief of a community by winning a duel against the previous chief, or just by killing them without knowing about the tradition. This will tend to pop up at the beginning to generate a plot or find a way to get a character into a society that should, by logic, wish to kill him on sight.
