Piglin (PIG-lin)

"Born from mutation, boiled and burned, find your place, leave the world overturned."

Created by mistake, the Piglins are a newly emerging culture just trying to find their place in the world. They were created in the Nether Colonies when the Aciets there tried to bring pigs into the Nether for food. What was unexpected, and what the Aciets could not have known, is that the radiation of the plane would cause these pigs to rapidly mutate. These mutations varied, between producing grotesque abominations, violent hoglins, and the Piglins. The Piglins have been forced to work for the entirety of the time that they've been alive. They don't get paid enough, and there's rebellion brewing.  

Appearance

The Piglins are a race of mutated pigs. They stand on two feet and have human-like proportions. They are normally very muscular and find it near impossible to put on fat. Their skin can range from a grayish pink to, more commonly, shades of tan. The eyes of the Piglin are often perceived as white beads, but black or gray beads can be found in the pinker varieties.   Their style often consists of brown, gray, or black clothing, accented with golden pieces such as belt buckles or bracelets. Piercings are widely accepted in the Piglin culture, and tattoos aren't a taboo. If a Piglin gets a scar, they are much more likely to display it proudly than hide it.  

Relations with Other Races

Aciets

The Piglins have a very negative relationship with the Aciets. The Aciets are oppressive and overworking them, seeing them simply as a cheap work force. There is even talk of rebellion among the Piglins. While the Piglins may be friends with specific individual Aciets, there is no hiding the rightful distain for their species and actions.

Testificates

The Piglins know very little about Testificates, but they see them as kinder than the Aciets. When approached, they may show weariness, but they won't be aggressive off the bat. They do know they are at least the same in wanting to be left alone.

Naming Traditions for the Piglin are similar in structure to the Aciets and the real life humans'.
