Shoanti Axe Clan

[TerraNova]

Am i the only one who finds it a little bit strange that the clan of cave-dwelling fishermen is called the Axe clan? While i can see their connection to Linnorm King raiders, I still find that something of a mismatch.

To add to the confusion: Their Totem Spirit feat increases a barbarians rage, instead of being somehow water related. Did their vision change between the Shoanti first being mentioned in the RotR Player's guide and the full article, or is there some (yet unknown) reason for this seeming strange connection?

Or perhaps the peope at Paizo really enjoyed Kung Fu Hustle...?

I've never seen that movie... Damn, my education is lacking.

The name and thier ability is probably tied to thier roots as warriors for the Thassolonians(sp. wrong).
