Vilrog Oni
The Vilrog Oni are an oni ethnic group from the Firebound half of Hell Proper who are recognized for their warm colored skin (often red, orange, gold, or brown). They also typically have two or more horns, skin toned tails, and yellow-white sclera.
Naming Traditions
Feminine names
Oni names are typically only one or two syllables. Female Oni prefer names ending in -a or -i.
Masculine names
Oni names are typically only one or two syllables. Male Oni prefer names ending in hard consonants or briefly preceded by hard consonants.
Unisex names
Oni names are typically only one or two syllables. Nonbinary and some gendered Oni prefer names ending in -e or lighter sounding consonants.
Family names
Elvoran Oni typically choose to take their tribe name as a family name. Otherwise they may refer to themselves by the names of those in their lineage who are most renown. For Example, the Oni named Dolga may be most proud of her mother, Magili, who was an assassin who killed an enemy leader so she may call herself Dolga Magili.
Ideals
Beauty Ideals
Vilrog Oni prefer size as an indication of beauty typically. The taller and bulkier an oni is, the more attractive they are considered.
Gender Ideals
Vilrog Oni see littler difference between men, women, and those not constrained by gender, as the roles and beauty standards are applied to everyone. Some Vilrog tribes even use a language which completely omits gender, often unable to understand others when they attempt to explain gender to them due to the language incompatibility which Undertone cannot translate.
Courtship Ideals
Vilrog Oni courting rituals are often driven by size flexing. If a Vilrog wants attention from someone, they might be sure to stand next to a shorter friend when socializing. If they wish to seek a long term partner, they may find opportunities to be seen next to children or animals to show off their size and capacity to guard others. On the contrary, if they wish to appeal to someone they only want to have a fling with, they would perhaps show off their size in comparison to a slave or prisoner, often involving acts of dominance and strength to go with.
Relationship Ideals
Vilrog Oni have fewer ideals about a one true love than the Elvoran Oni. Instead they believe in marrying and divorcing as is convenient and loving and lusting as is desired. It isn't considered cruel or shameful to leave your spouse if they cannot maintain a lifestyle your are accustomed to. Rather it is considered the logical thing to do and an expectation.
