Culture

Culture and cultural heritage

Tattoos, scarification, and piercings are common sight amongst the Nefisian people with many men and women having a combination of tattoos and scars on their arms and torso as well as piercings in their ears, lips, and noses. The tattoos and scars represent moments in a person's life. When the four tribes first combined, they used piercings honor specific tribal ancestry with many wearing disks in their lower lips and earlobes and having rings on their nostrils or rods going through the bridge of their noses. Because of so much blending between the tribes, and people not from Nefis, it is now considered that any piercings on the mouth, nose or ears, regardless of piercing type, honors the person's ancestry.

Common Customs, traditions and rituals

Totem Burial Nothing goes to waste among the Phtangi and that include the bodies of their dead. Some are used to create effigies and totems that the nomads leave behind or carry like banners from their Striders. When kept, they are believed to bring good luck - but in part, many who are made into totems were no longer able to support the group and their death was a burden lifted. The nomads mourn and celebrate them, as best the surface allows them to.
