Hunting: (Also could be a skill like building and doctor, besides being able to form hunting parties. This could be dangerous. Villiagers could end up being killed).

Marriage: (A lot of us name these guys after people we know and it's kind of annoying to see them going indoors with whomever lol It would be cool if you could choose to 'link' two people so that they only go inside with each other. Also it would help keep track of families. There could be an attraction level that can be influenced by eventst hat happen between sprites. Like if one gives the other flowers their bond grows stronger or if one scolds another their attraction lessons).

Leader: (Tribes should have a leader and a new one is chosen when the old one dies... they have to meet certain requirements to be a leader).

Religious leader: (A job or a skill characters can master that allows them to lead rain dances or other reigeous cerimony's to 'bless' the tribe in some way like a fertility blessing, crop blessing, a wisdom blessing ect ect). Of course if they do it all the time, then the Gods don't reward their greediness.

Heardsmen: (A job/skill you can master that allows a character to catch and raise some kind of cattle or sheep type animals. They can master this and provide food and clothing to the tribe but since the creatures eat the berries/veggies that the tribe might otherwise harvest/forrage it costs some of those food points to have a ranch of these creatures).

It'd be awesome to do networkable version of the game

Networkable Information:

Tribes could assist each other on hunting parties, religeous festivals, they could have wars or competitions, or send men from one tribe to another to populate. Also there could be the ability to have more than one person managing the same tribe (so that if one person is sleeping someone else can be keeping an eye on things).

MISC:

Family tree: I like to see who came from who so it'd be really really cool if there was a family tree type feature somewhere in the game.

Cuter sprites: Some of them are just so incredibly ugly as kids. It's kind of wierd to have bald kids that only have hair by their ears. Though I do like the completely bald one.
