ONE MORE FOR THE ROAD, HECK YEAH. XDD

And yes...the implications are ALL there. Something funny is very much afoot, since these aren't Animalfolk! They're straight up rabbits that gained sapience AND size!

Maybe we've got time for a few more facts before I turn in for the nite tho. :>

----------------------

MORE FACTS:

- The Yuetu seem to be unusually accomplished at building rockets. It is said that this stemmed from multiple attempts in the past to fly to the moon. While none of their attempts ever came close to actually reaching the edge of space, doing so gave them an edge on chemistry and mathematics that most races don't have.

- They are practically everywhere in the Jade Kingdom, because of their ability to multiply in numbers quite quickly. In fact...it's given them such a crisis in population that their leaders have mandated that Yuetu families may only have one litter in their lifetime. Such a fact has prompted them to look into various birth control methods.

- Yuetu society is made of four classes: government officials, farmers, artisans and merchants. The merchants in particular are somewhat underappreciated, sometimes even being seen as parasites who make themselves rich by making others poor. Yet they're the ones who keep trade flowing between Kingdoms, marketing goods outside of the Jade Kingdom.

- As of recent times, a fifth class sprung up: Gentries. A distinct social class defined by their place as accomplished fighters, whose combat prowess and servitude has landed them many political, economic, and social privileges. In a sense, making them upper class. This way of life is hard to attain, but sought by many nonetheless.

- For a time, Yuetu society was deeply patriarchal. Because they struggled to get a foothold on the Jade Kingdom, their women were highly necessary to keep their numbers up. So, they were treated not as people, but a commodity to be traded, used, and guarded at all times. They were effectively powerless...until a variety of factors ended this "wife trading".

- For example? Yuetu concubines sold poorly, due to their animal-like appearances not appealing to Elvish nobles at the time. Overpopulation made it unnecessary for women to simply birth children. And souring attitudes towards slavery saw a near-universal disapproval for the Yuetu's wife-trading practices. The final death blow to such a practice was the rise of many strong-willed women who were encouraged into action by other matriarchal societies.

- There's a steady population of female Yuetu living in places such as the Wind Kingdom.

- Those red markings on their face are like birthmarks. They don't have a clear purpose, but every Yuetu has a different set.
