The condition and color of one's facial plumage plays an important social role in Tinalli society. Elders are highly honored for their colorful plumage, which represents the wisdom that is gained in living a long life. "Show your colors" is a saying used to chastise adults not acting their age.

Knowledge is very important to the Tinalli. Millennia ago, when the Tinalli were developing their first civilizations, the Tinall continents were very unstable; earthquakes and tidal waves were common. Physical possessions were easily lost to disaster, whereas knowledge carried in one's head was safe from calamity. Over time, the emphasis on education and literacy became ingrained in Tinalli culture. When the world stabilized, the tradition continued. Today, Tinall boasts some of the best universities in the sector, which are wide attended by students of many species. Tinalli humor is very dry to humans.
