Civilization and Culture

Beauty Ideals

An athletic build is the ideal for both men and women. Tattoos, piercings and scars are often seen as beauty enhancing, and things to be proud of.

Gender Ideals

While they have little to no stereotypical gender roles, they are still fairly limited in gender identities. Everyone is assigned male or female at birth, and that is what they are. How an individual chooses to present their gender identity is more loose.   With influences from other races and cultures, more gender binaries have made their way into uruk culture as well, but they still remain one of the most limited.

Common Dress Code

A traditional uruk folk dress is mostly made from leather and hide and is made to be practical and easy to move in. It is fairly similar for both men and women.

Culture and Cultural Heritage

Their views on family is much wider than most others. They can consider a person family without them being actually related.

Common Customs, Traditions and Rituals

A rite of passing is a common tradition for when someone turns 18, or becomes an adult. It is usually some sort of task that requires a physical challenge. It can be to run or swim a certain distance, to best someone older in hand to hand combat or wrestling, or to build something.

Uruks are a middleclass race, with a fairly high poverty rate.
