Culture
Vallene hate outsiders; a culture where their small tribe is valued more, not only that but beauty is valued in their societies. To not only dress pretty but attract others, and try to convince them to join their worship of a god or goddess. If you don't follow the laws of the new god you're shunned, removed, and or kicked out. Newcomers whether their race or not are welcomed, loved bomb, and kept around as long as they're going to worship the new god. Those who don't are removed.
The father is gives away the daughter usually, if the father isn't alive that's the job of the mother. A very religious, organized group with having it where you must visit church services.
The community is above all; don't question the community, and push personal feelings aside. Divorce is seen as selfish, you'll be treated as an outcast if you don't follow along. Those who divorce, and or commit crimes are given the cold shoulder.
Women are often not given the same level of rights as men in these cultures; they're more of treated as property than people.
Government
A theocracy's ruled by a god or gods whether good or evil. Whoever takes charge of their tribe is the new leader you must worship, and follow the rules of, re-write laws, and make haste in doing so.
Holidays
Not many if any holidays are celebrated;
Birthdays - the day your born
Death day - the day you die; the god or goddess you'll be with! If you don't end up in the correct place whether needing to go up or down this day isn't celebrated
Birthing day - the day you gave birth to your first child!
Entry to adult hood / woman hood - read a passage for from the religious book under the day you were born; this day is celebrated at the age of 14.
Marriage - the day you get marriage
Fun facts!
They have over 10 different religious books to read from!
They evolved from Commoners, yes it's strange considering Commoners evolved from humans but their genetic lineage matches with many traits but for some reason their genetic mapping also matches with bats?
They may not be hardy but they're not to be underestimated.
The main way they earn money is mining minerals from the underground areas. As well as fishing unique creatures out from the water!
They're often blocking off entrances to the forgotten gods; because you know, you don't want the forgotten gods coming in, and destroying the universe.
