DESIGN DETAILS:
xotols tend to favor sleeveless shirts and loose pants. they dont wear shoes bc they are underwater but some wear socks!
their outfits tend to be white + their eye color
xotols make their own symbols!! they arent required, but they are seen as a common form of self expression :) while any xotol regardless of gender can wear whatever they want, 'male' xotols have lighter spots/accent colors, and 'female' xotols have darker spots/accent colors. originally this was so males could attract mates better, and females could hide from predators- but they've evolved to a point where it's kind of arbitrary
NAMES:
xotols have three names, to match with their weird way of telling time. their names are 3x6x9. so first name is 3 letters, middle is 6, and last is 9. though they dont use last names to denote family relations- instead seeing names as a sign of growth.
for example a newly hatched xotol will only have one name. a growing one will have two, and a fully matured one will have 3
LIFE:
xotols are hatched in large groups of eggs, which are usually laid in a secluded spot away from predators. these hatchlings will learn community by helping out their peers. this doesnt last long, however, as once a xotol has eaten their egg in full- they will flee their hatching spot and find a seperate place to cocoon. which will then become their permanent home.
thats about all ive prepared but i really like the aesthetic of them having glass houses + something ~resembling~ lusii but not exactly
UPDATE MY AWESOME BESTIE SUGGESTED THEY LIVE IN JELLYFISH LIKE HOW CLOWNFISH LIVE IN ANENOME AND THAT IS SO AWESOME ITS HAPPENING. WEAR MAKING IT HAPPEN!!!
