[comments] rccculture The Crays have a rich culture here's a little bit of everything about the Crays.
-Art and Music
They value art and music. They appreciate a form of play called "kowy"(literally meaning "caws"). It is essentially a play but the dialogues are composed entirely of caws. These caws are essentially gibberish, but they help express emotions and mood.
They also appreciate a form of music called "šlacsoki"(literally meaning "soars"). It is a song with a choir projecting loud caws. A leading singer will then sing the lyrics of the šlacsoa. These songs tell stories, most of these stories are folk legends.
Another form of song is solo chirping, aka "rom artana"(literally meaning "one person"). This is pretty self explanatory. Most of these songs start from a slow and low pitched chirping melody, and then slowly speeding up, and ending in a sudden stop. There are no majors in Craic culture, only minors(ratuna). There is no do re mi in Craic, but instead they use ka, ak, kakana, aknaka, akkana, kanakka, naka and akna. Their default minor is E minor, hence ka is an E by default, just as do is a C by default. These systems don't directly correspond to human music theories, as they are developed by avians not humans.
-Fashion
Black and thin cloths are traditionally worn with gold patterns on their back. They have 6 main patterns, each with a different meaning. Crays are born and then immediately tattooed with one of the following patterns:
the Saria(cat)
future; luck
the Muntia(tree)
prosperity; wisdom
the Krostia(star)
hope; leadership
the Artana(speaker, more like bird
intelligence; survival
the Hatacha(mountain)
stability; peace
the Tolura(phoenix)
power; creativity
Family structure
The Crays have organised themselves into a structure of Father > Mother > Worker > Sons, so if the father dies the mother will inherit the property, and then worker and so on. Workers, or servants, can only serve one family, and if they have 2 properties one of the properties will automatically be transferred to the son.
Each of these 4 have a role.
Father - hunting, farming
Mother - education
Worker - a little bit of everything
Sons - preparing to become a father/mother/worker
Appearance
The Crays are bird-like people. They have dark feathers and a fan-shaped tail. Most Crays are shorter than other intelligent species.
Folklores
The Crays believe in Lechtani leading them through a snow and venturing into the wild and finding their homeland through following a star that only appears in sunset. Another folklore is the 3 phoenixes, where one dominated the other 2 phoenixes and took over control of the universe, and created the world and the Crays' ancestors.
