Karsanian Traditional Fashion
The Clothing styles are very similar to the fashions that are trendy on other coalition planets. The more distinctively Karsanian clothing style of clothing tends to be very loose and flowy, with extra lengths of fabric draped and pleated across the body. Loose trousers are also common.
Architecture
Due to the planet basically being an ecumenopolis, so much of the architecture is built like skyscrapers or apartment buildings, that can hold multiple families or businesses at a time. More expensive neighborhoods may have their own house, but these are quite rare and most people live in apartment buildings, with the wealthy living in the super fancy buildings.
The architecture of the planet greatly resembles that of planets like
Athea and, particularly,
Cirelia, two other highly urbanized planets. They do take more of an elegant and beautifying approach using lots of swirling designs and layered terraces and making sure that the planet's views, even if they are in the city, are still beautiful.
Society
Karsanian Moleosphy Divination
The spots and speckles that are common on the skin of the Karsanian species are unique to each individual. Upon the birth of a Karsanian, the spots and marks of their skin will be recorded and used as part of identification. A copy of this record can be requested by the parents, or the child when they are older. This record is updated if the person commits a crime or is in some other circumstance where a better identification record is needed.
Karsanian Moleosphy is a traditional form of divination to look at the spots and markings of someone to try and find out their future like their love life, their skills, and the level of ambition, however, these traditions are commonly seen as pure fantasy, and little more than a fun pass time for teens and bored people.
