Organization

In this culture, power is determined by a merit-based system. Religious leaders are most highly regarded. Neither gender is dominant. Social mobility is only possible through joining a particular profession or guild.

Religion

This religion is shamanistic. Their gatherings happen annually at the sanctuary and feature teaching, conversation, and food/drink. Devotees gather in outdoor arenas for ritual sacrifice.

Taboos

Eating human flesh is taboo.

Not addressing someone by their proper title is a violation of ancestral traditions.

Talking during a religious procession is an offense against the natural order.

Greetings

Formal situations require the lesser person to kneel. If the status difference is slight, it is only kneeling on one knee. If the status difference is great, the lesser person must prostrate themselves. In informal situations, simple nodding the head is acceptable.

Meals

The presentation of food is highly valued, and elaborate, intricate arrangements are created for important meals.

Design

Squares and right angles are influenced by the latest fashion trends.

Music

Ondúne music has a single rhythm with a very slow beat. It is very loud, with simple harmony. It commonly has a simple melody with a low pitch in a F pentatonic minor key. Usually, it has a metallic timbre.
