Uhovia: Difference between revisions

Because of this lack of distinguishing culture, its neighbor and trading partner HighTide managed to develop its own culture centered around the turtles found in the Seastone Isles. Although Uhovians do not typically share the same religious devotion towards turtles as natives of HighTide, they share a general appreciation for the reptiles, having their own native population that occasionally comes to shore to lay eggs.

 

Nonetheless, Uhovia's primary cultural claim is the pursuit of alchemy. In fact, its flag is designed after the four stages of the Magnum Opus: ''Nigredo'' (Blackening), ''Albedo'' (Whitening), ''Citrinas'' (Yellowing), and ''Rubedo'' (Reddening). Initially sought after as a moneymaking scheme, alchemy eventually became Uhovia's form of art, with the most talented minds creating masterpieces of tonics, tinctures, and elixirs. Today, alchemy is an art as well as an industry in Uhovia, earning it the respect of its neighbors in the FCA.

 

While a significant number of Uhovians are atheistic, most share a rational belief in a "First Causer," a "Maximal Good", or a "Grand Designer." They welcome all other religions, interested in any practical insights that their teachings may hold.
