Antorokc

This ethnicity is often taken by Barbro, although some Seterians are included. It is by far the most human-like of all the groups, while also being slightly foreign to many. In all, it is a group many people can be emerged in and not see many differences.

Naming Traditions

Feminine names

Although the young choose their names, females usually go for more softer names such as, 'Alee' or 'Nayla'

Masculine names

Like females, the males choose their names, but males tend to go for the harder names, such as 'Acktyl' or 'Weritr'

Family names

Names circulating a bad habit or quality such as 'Black-blood' or 'Gluttonois' are common last names, no one is sure why, though.

Culture

Major language groups and dialects

They mostly speak Barbro, as Barbro are the most common species in the effected settlements, although the occasional Galoan can be seen in the market.

Shared customary codes and values

Often they attend a speech given by the Majhy once a month, it's usually just a report about how the settlement is being held together.

Average technological level

Like other intelligent species of the planet, they have reached a similar level to the Renaissance.

Common Etiquette rules

Commonly, it is disliked to be overly aggressive in a public street. As well, it is shunned upon to have the absence of clothing or garb, depending on species, for instance, Galoans do not have any external features that need to be, ahem, hidden.

Common Dress code

Barbro are often dressed at the bare minimum, in a pair of shorts. At the most, males can sometimes have full sets of armor and females can be seen traveling in fancy, flowing destras, as they are called, pretty much a large skirt or dress.

Art & Architecture

The architecture of this ethnicity is largely based on a balance of lines and curves. As for art, it is as stylistic as possible.

Common Customs, traditions and rituals

Depending on the individual, the youth can either love or loath the customs and traditions. But the customs and traditions consist of the Tournament, and the Christmas ball, where young males invite females to a dance after the party outside, where many species gather to celebrate.

Birth & Baptismal Rites

Birth, er, hatching rites are a heavy topic. It depends greatly who the parents are, and what they want their young to turn out like. For instance, some parents want a fierce warrior, while others want an artist. This doesn't mean, however, there are those that choose their own path.

Coming of Age Rites

During their fifteenth year, males and females alike must go into the wilds and find the tooth or skull of a dangerous animal, the main choice is a Drag, but there are overachievers who try to track down an Extengrab, Shriek or even a Ramun.

Funerary and Memorial customs

The most commonly practiced funeral service is by burning, similar to those of vikings. The ashes are the buried at a place of significance to the deceased.

Ideals

Beauty Ideals

The females often cover themselves in furs, flowers or precious metals. The young females especially are fond of flowers and more easy to come by items.

Gender Ideals

Males are of the same level as females, and can be seen cleaning, cleaning armor and playing with young.

Courtship Ideals

The males try to impress the females, which then, if the male is 'worthy', choose them as a mate.

Relationship Ideals

First of all, once the male successfully impresses the female, they have the equivalent to girlfriend/boyfriend status. After a while, they get married, or split apart if they choose to.

Major organizations

The Majhy's court considers themselves to be a organization, and there is a band of thieves and assassins that dwell in the settlements undercofts.
