The peoples of this sun bleached land have adapted after generations of young death at the hands of the sand creatures that devour them whole and devastate entire encampments. These people have become animalistic in their mating in order to keep the species thriving. With the average life expectancy being incredibly short, most females bear their first child before the age of 12, and repeatedly thereafter until they die. The society has adapted to accommodate this survival by becoming incredibly sexualized. Lust and the drive for sex dominates most activities that take place within these small societies.
The land itself consists primarily of sand with small patches of dirt that in rare cases produce a yellow colored desert daisy that the natives use for numerous purposes. The flower is crushed as a dye for clothing and the fibers of the stem are used for stitching and light rope, and sometimes consumed when other food is sparse.
The sand-worms that have shaped this societies ways are both feared and revered, large conic buildings have been created in the image of the pointed head of these beasts, as an attempt to appease these great creatures and stave off attacks. These function as a safe haven during attacks and as a place of worship.
Sustenance is hard to come by on this planet, beetle like insects are a mainstay of the diet, along with any vegetation that can be gathered, usually near the edge or on the slopes of mountains. This lack of nutrition dictates that the inhabitants usually do not grow above 5 feet tall and are almost never obese or overweight. Sand-worm hatchlings are a delicacy, but are very rare and come at a price. When a group finds a pod of hatchling sand-worms, they must sacrifice one of their own young as an exchange for the bounty of food that t hey were allowed to discover.
Travel is difficult in the soft sand so very wide wheels are used to disperse the weight of their wind propelled wagons that allow them to escape their village and reach their safe havens during an attack. These vehicles also allow them the ability to search daily for temporary water holes so as to sustain their villages. There is tales of a valley filled with nourishment and water so plentiful you can lie in it, but these are dismissed as fairy tales by most and seldom searched for.
