The Tukkav culture evolved from various independent, nomadic groups, and still retains many of these aspects today. The most significant being that there is no centralized Tukkav government. Tribes still remain notoriously independent, maintaining their own individual subcultures including unique economies, spacefaring, and military infrastructures. They only come together during special gatherings held every decade called the [[Ouran]] or in times of war to appoint a common [[Warleader]]. | |||
The Ouran is a time-honored tradition amongst the Tukkav, where each tribe sends representatives to discuss matters of culture, negotiate and settle debts and disputes, and celebrate in general. In particularly, they enjoy partaking a particularly bitter alcoholic beverage called [[Lapteth Beer|lapteth beer]] derived from a [[Lapteth|native grain]] of the same name. Likewise, while imbibing their favorite beverages, they play in [[Toof|toof]] circles, a horn-like instrument. | |||
The Tukkav are known for their mining operations on planets that are typically too cold for most races to safely operate. Although the Tukkav once had many colonies and off-world operations, overpopulation saw all individuals living off-world forsaken in the Home War. Those off-worlders became known as the [[Exiled]] and less kindly as the "Rejected" or "Crinkers". | |||
They are avid hunters, having caused many of the native wildlife on Uycheon III to go extinct despite their animistic religious traditions causing them to revere and thoroughly use that which they slay. Due to the slim pickings on their homeworld, hunting trips on exotic worlds are a favorite vacation for Tukkav. | |||
