Organization

In this culture, power is determined by birthright. Landowners are most highly regarded. Women are dominant. Social mobility is only possible through joining a particular profession or guild.

Religion

This religion is shamanistic. They gather annually at the synagogue for teaching and study. At temples, adherents come together to seek guidance and wisdom from a priestess through ritual sacrifice.

Taboos

Not saying "please" or "thank you" when appropriate is considered very bad luck.

Joking about religion is forbidden.

Greetings

A hug and kiss on each cheek is common among friends and family. In formal situations, a handshake is more appropriate.
