Need help creating a culture for an alien race called the AvârÃ.
I am currently trying to create a culture and Religion for an alien race called the AvârÃ. My current ideas are:
-Avârà population consists of a 2 to 1 ratio of females to males. So the Avârà race is very women centered with governments and religious leaders run by females. A Matriarchy.
-Also, the Avârà are so technologically advanced that they have the technology to induce pregnancy in lesbian couples as long as they have DNA samples from the 2 lovers without any need for a male.
-Their culture and religion requires them to be rather peaceful and it is looked down upon to be trigger-happy.
-Homosexuality is very common among the Avârà as the majority of the population is overwhelmingly female.
-Avârà religious leaders are usually lesbians, rather it's recommended and preferred that they are lesbians.
-The Avârà are currently very high tech and are one of the known powers in the Universe and interstellar relations.
-Their home world has 3 moons which is where the Avârà religion is stemmed from:
Avâr Goddess of Life and Light
AvÃr Goddess of Love and the PâvÃr
vet Goddess of Death, Darkness, and the ruler of the AfterÃ
-AfterÃ: The Avârà Afterlife.
-PâvÃr: A ceremony of great cultural and religious significance to the AvârÃ. The PâvÃr is also a unique ability of the AvârÃ. It is believed that AvÃr blessed the Avârà with the PâvÃr as a way to perform a soul bonding. Mentally, emotionally, and in soul a PâvÃr pairing are combined. They share all of their memories and thoughts and emotions to where they practically are the same person in essence, but their other half is more of a secondary self to their original self (like a second language). It is common for PâvÃrà (PâvÃr pairings) to lose track of which memories are theirs and which are of their partner's, but essentially/culturally they are both theirs (if that makes any sense). PâvÃrà can be of different alien races as long as one of the pairing is AvârÃ. Basically, if 2 complete strangers were to become PâvÃrà then although they are complete strangers, it will be like they have known each other for all of eternity as well as they have known themselves. The PâvÃr ceremony is done kind of like sex but without any need to fornicate. It is normal and fine for PâvÃrà to fornicate as well but that is unnecessary. All that is required for the PâvÃr Ceremony is to be as physically close as possible where they make themselves entirely vulnerable to each other. Being in a nude embrace is the most common way since most PâvÃrà tend to become lovers, partners, and often marry. PâvÃrà are of the same Avârà race, they can be interracial as long as 1 of the pair is AvârÃ. PâvÃrà can also be homosexual, asexual, heterosexual, bisexual, etc. If a PâvÃrà is interracial than the PâvÃrà essentially becomes half and half. Say a human and Avârà become PâvÃrà then the Avârà and human both become half human and half AvârÃ. PâvÃrà also gain an increase in strength and health and extreme longevity. Both sides of the PâvÃrà can also heal injuries that normally would never have grown back. Like a human can slowly regrow an arm and an Avârà can regrow her wings.
-AvârÃ: skin color usually vary in a combination of types blues and purples, short noses, almond shaped eyes, and hair & eyes of a wide variety of colors. The Avârà body shape is rather close to that of a human, except for pointed ears, fang-like teeth, short claw-like nails and toe nails, and big feathered wings (usually the same color of the hair) that stem from the bottom of their shoulder blades. These wings are strong enough to fly, but not for long distances, they are better/stronger at protecting themselves from attacks than to fly. It is also an extremely shameful thing to have your wings torn or cut off. Avârà will exile those whose wings are taken off regardless if it was consensual or against their will. Avârà often do not have their wings out as a precaution against getting their wings taken out. When an AvârÃ's wings are hidden there is a sapphire color tattoo-like mark in place of where the wings are on the back in a very intricate and beautiful pattern. Another difference is that the Avârà are much stronger than humans, with higher reflexes, heightened senses. Avârà also have the aptitude for high tech abilities and biotics.
