Tap-a-wewaka-atapas

The Tap-a-wewaka-atapas or Guardians of Order are a core cultural institution of nearly all Bwap communities.

Description (Specifications)

Translated from Wawa-pakekeke-wawa into Anglic as the Guardians of Order, the Tap-a-wewaka-atapas preserve and enforce the Bwappish philosophy of Wapawab. When the Atapas-atta-wapawab (Grand Council of Crèches) requires information or enforcement of a decision, it is the Tap-a-wewaka-atapas that takes the Council's direction and transforms it into a reality.

Members carry ceremonial fewab-a-wewaka staffs, and a blade made from a depwethawa tooth.

History & Background (Dossier)

While the Tap-a-wewaka-atapas are not officially sanctioned or recognized by the Third Imperium, nonetheless they command a significant amount of respect and influence among Bwap crèches.
