Naming Conventions
Traditional Endassi naming conventions follow this pattern: [surname]-[first name]. Surnames tend to be translated as verbs, and first names as single letters. For example, "Lean-R," "Sat-N," "Bounce-D." Though this naming convention is widespread in contemporary Endassi culture, there are plenty of counter-examples to these conventions and the Endassi are accepting of those that abandon this tradition.
Endaasi Massages
Their hands can secrete an electrolytic gel and produce a low-level electrical fields, which is one of the draws of this pleasure planet. Their massages are fabled!
Physiology
They are loosely humanoid, as they lack a true head. Their brain, as it were, is distributed across their entire body. The "head" is two round, pleasing stalked eyes, an exposed olfactory bulb, and an orifice for ingestion.
They lack sophisticated vocal tracts and cannot verbally speak beyond grunts.
Despite this configuration, most humanoids generally find their form to be pleasing in its symmetry and proportions.
Movements
Their movement is delicate and intricate as if they were jellyfish in the sea.
Telepathy
They are touch-telepathic. Their cultural practice is to read a person's mind upon meeting, exploring their experiences to better understand them. Instead of privacy, they hold "forgetting" sacred. Before the conversation ends, they come to an agreement about what may be remembered by both parties.
