The following mainly comes from initial traditional tribes in general, not including tribes who have mixed origins and other case-by-case variable exceptions.
As one of the nine foundational tribes, the [Perfume Succubus Tribe] were initially as several of scattered and loosely-connected matriarchal tribes who had deep tradition of worshipping certain deity (goddess to be precise) that was associated with community and fertility, whose tribal homelands were located around from mid-western region to north-western region of Anima continent. After receiving their own Grimm-form and then returning to their own tribal homelands in Anima, despite having abnormally birthed gender phenomenon, they viewed said phenomenon as sign of certain blessing, not as curse. After that, they not only increased the degrees of connections between these matriarchal tribes who had similar custom on worshipping the goddess of similar-concept in order to form the certain tribal alliances for having better mutual support between these matriarchal tribes, but also they occasionally organized and formed cooperative raid on other non-[Perfume Succubus]-settlements (whether from Grimm-folks or nor) within Anima continent (mostly focus on those on land surface) to get many male individuals (especially on young teenage ones as the most) as possible as they can (along with sometimes demanding other settlements give a few of their male villagers as marriage mates for their tribes for as the exchange for either the discontinuation of raiding said settlements and leaving these settlements alone, as well as adopting younger (or even infant-aged) male from other destroyed settlements by other (whether are Grimm-folks or nor) raiders into their own tribes) in order to increase their own male numbers among their own tribal population for ensuring the [Perfume Succubus] tribes to have their stable and increase-able population to further spread out their own influence range for the aim of making their own tribes more safer from external threats. After the need of getting more male into their own tribal population had been largely decrease (in the more or less degree), their overall tribal goal became more focused on their own tribal's self-sufficient development, and started to focus on improving and maintaining the exterior relationship at certain level as well, such as keeping positive trading relationships with the [Blackmud Demon] tribes. When around the beginning of first mistral empire era, after their several interactive contacts with members of Mistral's Four underworld families (especially Western clan as their first interactive object), after considering a lots about whether they participated under the ruling structure of Mistral's Four underworld families (particularly under the rule of {Western clan}), they not only sent lots of their own tribal (the vast majority are female while mostly are teenage-aged female) members to the places of Western clan in order to learn and study the things beyond their own tribes from the outside world (spectacularly, from Mistral empire along with other things) such as knowledges, cultural customs along with technologies etc., but also used said places of Western clan as both “trading hubs” for trading for these daily essentials along with other luxuries stuffs including fine arts, rare materials (e.g. silk), entertainments and fashions back to their own tribes for both further supporting their own tribes living and enriching themselves with imported knowledge and cultural information, as well as the channel to send the information from the outside world (spectacularly, from Mistral empire along with other things) back to their own tribes, such as the outside world’s current (both political and social) situations, technological development along with latest inventions and fashion trends as well etc. for having better understanding on the outside world which were beyond their own tribes and ensuring to have better future action to be taken for their own tribes, and then later there were more and more their own tribal members travel across from their own tribal homelands to arrive at said places of Western clan as “the stepping stone for going to the outside world” through either riding vessels (e.g. boat, raft) across inland sea within the Anima continent, moving on land routes or going through subterranean tunnels dig by the [Blackmud Demon] tribes for either participating under the ruling structure of Mistral's Four underworld families, settling their own commercial business (e.g. retail shop and tavern), continuing on learning and studying on more about knowledge and information from the outside world, or all of them above. And then at around the beginning of second mistral empire era, asides from many of [Perfume Succubus] tribal members still chose to settle and live within said places which were under the ruling of Western clan along with its nearby around areas within Mistral’s capital, there were increasing numbers of [Perfume Succubus] tribal members moved across further to Mistral’s capital area's east side and then joined and lived under the ruling structure of {Eastern clan} of Mistral's Four underworld families. Finally, after the implementation of "nighttime-wandering order", asides from there are several of their own tribes still living within their original tribal homelands in Anima, there are no any significant impacts on their tribal daily lives despite having previous damages caused from those interior conflicts between Mistral's Four underworld families after the Great war, and still continue on both their commercial activities and daily lives within the Kingdom of Mistral's capital as usual. Besides, there are not only lots of [Perfume Succubus] tribal members settling and living within said places which are under the ruling of Four underworld families along with its nearby around areas within Mistral’s capital, including in the certain large-scale underground urban district of {Eastern clan}'s Grimm-folk tribal members below the {Eastern clan}'s said turf, but also there are increasing amount of younger tribal (especially on teenage-aged female) members already become highly integrate and live among with Mistral's civilian daily lifestyles for having great life experiences on living between "the world of the four kingdoms" and "the world of Eastern (Anima) Grimm-folks tribes".
Note: As the [Perfume succubus] tribes mainly rely on their militia force they trained for protecting their own tribal settlement instead of relying on individual warrior prowess, even since when before they are receiving their own Grimm-form, therefore they have little to none (if in more personal, more private, very non-lethal and very highly ritualistic way) of related traditions on single combat warfare compare to other Eastern (Anima) Grimm-folk tribes.
Note: The [Perfume succubus] (especially female-to-female) tribal members not only have very strong bond between among their own female tribal populations as well as have collectiveness on taking care and ensuring their fellow tribal (especially on younger-to-teenage-aged ones) female members’ own well-being, but also put very high amount of safety awareness, protectiveness and even defensiveness in very highly fierceness way on their own female tribal populations in case of there have any malicious attempts upon on said tribal (especially on younger-to-teenage-aged ones) female members, due to Due to several severe historical (whether from before or after they receive their own Grimm-form) atrocities against the [Perfume succubus]’s own (especially on younger-to-teenage-aged ones) female tribal populations, including [massive-scale sexual violences (e.g. forced sexual activities), massive-scale kidnapping by certain trafficking groups, forced prostitution along with forced marriage, and even massive-scale human sacrificial ritual (which kill numerous of younger-to-teenage-aged [Perfume succubus] tribal female members in almost uncountable rate) committed by certain extreme-misogynistic cult-like groups]. And these said attitudes are applied by some of [Perfume succubus] tribal female members on their female counterparts (especially human and Faunus ones) beyond their own tribes as well.
Note: Among the "wandering core-family"’s population, the ones involving [Perfume succubus] tribal member are significantly more than the ones involving other eastern (Anima) Grimm-folk tribal members, and in terms of said [Perfume succubus] tribal member within "wandering core-family"’s family structure are all female (either comes from her originated destroyed tribal settlement or escapes from atrocities against the [Perfume succubus]’s own female tribal populations), and also the family structure type of "wandering core-family" which involve [Perfume succubus] tribal member is typically as the type of “one of Grimm-folk parent be marrying with other partner from outside world while said other partner without premise-knowing about said their partner of another side's true identity as Grimm-folk”. In case of [Perfume succubus] tribal female member meet/find out their "wandering core-family" counterpart, most likely be ended up with leaving the said [Perfume succubus] tribal female member from "wandering core-family" alone without any further actions.
[Grimm-form appearance]
In said stage form of Grimm-form transformation, aside from "turning their sclerae's color from white into black" along with their iris will glow at a certain level, the non-luminescent white freckle-looking dots with light-purple outline are appearing and spreading around nearby the circulatory system in vertical-symmetrical patterns on the skin of said user’s entire body.
In said stage form of Grimm-form transformation, aside from these above-mentioned appearance characteristics, the color of freckle-looking dots which spreading around nearby the circulatory system in vertical-symmetrical patterns on skin of said user’s entire body are charged from originally non-luminescent white to semi-reflective-luminescent white, also the skin color of said user’s entire body are changed into light-purple as well.
[Grimm-form ability]
In said Grimm-form, aside from negating Grimm's sense and mask said users’ "human/soul presence", making the said user seem "invisible" and "undetectable" to the Grimm which able to reduce the Grimm's attraction and even further decrease the Grimm's aggression and hostility tension toward the said user and having enhanced said user’s basic physical properties (including strength and durability) that allow them to have similar equal footing with huntsmen and huntress, said user also able to generate the purple mist/smoke-like substance, which contains Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter, from these freckle-looking dots on skin of said user’s entire body. The said Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter within the purple mist/smoke-like substance the said user generate is not only be not affected by windblows as well as rainfalls at all while still remain floated in midair, but also have the ability to cause nervous-psychotropic hallucinatory effect on the opponent via utilizing specialized biochemical particulate matter generated by the user for contacting with opponent's sensory receptors of body parts (including nose, skin and eyes) in order to make said opponent (the said opponent are including human and Faunus as well as the creatures of Grimm) have highly-realistic simulated sensory feelings (in terms of exact contents on these simulated sensory feelings, these sensory contents could be including a more wide effect varieties and are manipulated by the said user at will), plus the said Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter within the purple mist/smoke-like substance the said user generate could be "programmed" by said user at will to make only targets on either certain specific individual or certain body sensory parts (including nose, skin and eyes) be affected by hallucinatory effect, further the said user able to manipulate the concertation (from “extremely thin mist that it is extremely invisible to the naked eye and could not be felt at all” to “extremely thick fog that block the visual sense completely”) and spreading range (which could be further expanse to several kilometers away from the said user) of the purple mist/smoke-like substance the said user generate at will. the strength, effect variety, concentration and even spreading range of hallucinatory mist/smoke-like substance the said user generate could be further improved throughout later-on further training, and the higher-level skill on the Grimm-form abilities the said user has, the stronger and more realistic hallucinatory effect the purple mist/smoke-like substance which the said user generate have. In terms of ways of generating the purple mist/smoke-like substance, the said user could generate said purple mist/smoke-like substance either from said user's whole body or from limited body parts (e.g. arm or leg) only.
Also, said Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter within the purple mist/smoke-like substance the said user generate allow said user to have enhanced touching sense as well as detective sense via the said Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter within the purple mist/smoke-like substance the said user generate, which allow the said user to be able to detect anything within mist/smoke the said user generate through sensing airflow, micromolecular, disturbance, movement and even movement trajectory from far distance in 360 degree style, even just using in the lowest concentration (e.g. in form of “extremely thin mist that it is extremely invisible to the naked eye and could not be felt at all”) of Grimm-like-matter-made micromolecular from purple mist/smoke-like substance they produced the said user generate, as well as further enhance the said user’s reactional speed by sensing and detecting the via airflow, micromolecular disturbance, vibration, movement path and even trajectory via the said Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter which the said user sense from.
[notice; Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter within the purple mist/smoke-like substance which the said user generate will be self-evaporated after a while once said substance is outside the said user’s control range and no longer be manipulated by the said user within a while.]
Besides, said user also has access to minor regenerative healing ability that able to heal up the scratching and cutting wounds, along with minor bone fractures, and the higher-than-cutting-wound-level wounds like serious chopping wounds need additional amount of medical care for the purpose of accelerating the healing process, which don't have significant difference whether in partial form or completed form of Grimm-form transformation. Moreover, the said user has physical resistance against nervous-psychotropic hallucinatory effect of purple mist/smoke-like substance from lower-level user except the ones from the higher-level user, though the said physical resistance against nervous-psychotropic hallucinatory effect of purple mist/smoke-like substance could be further built up throughout later-on gradual physical adaption training on adapting hallucinatory effect of purple mist/smoke-like substance. Moreover, in case for said female user, the said female user can be able to control and regulate the reproduction process manipulation at said female users' will that abort the fertilization process of sperm and egg and even stop the whole reproduction process within the female user's body in order to further prevent both forced and accidental pregnancy.
[Note: the followings are inherited traits that have not any associations with whether their own Grimm-form is activated or nor]
The said user has slower aging procession that able to keep youthful appearance much longer compared to other-types Grimm-folks and general people `asides from their own hair color become more white or grey once entering the elder-like age`, though these said traits only apply on physical appearance, not including interior systemic and organ ones. Also, the said user has unusual birth gender ratio which there are about 85 to 90 percentage chance to have birthed female infant when they get pregnant and birth their own infants. And lastly, the said user has access to sexual disease immunity which allow them to be completely immune to every sexual-related disease, especially for the said female users.
Combat Application:
When fighting as individual, the said user can generates the purple Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter-contained mist/smoke-like substance in form of “extremely thin mist that it is extremely invisible to the naked eye and could not be felt at all” from the said user’s whole body and spread around all surrounding nearby area from the said user prematurely in order to allow for the said user to locate the said opponent’s exact location as well as sense and detect the said opponent’s body movement early via the said Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter within the purple mist/smoke-like substance the said user generate for able to response and evade the said opponent’s attack in more quicker and precious manner, spot the gaps of the said opponent’s defense posture and strike at the said opponent through these defense gaps easily (whether use punch, kick, using weapons or all above). Also, the said user can generates the purple Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter-contained mist/smoke-like substance in form of “extremely thick fog that block the visual sense completely" to block the said opponent's visual sense for causing the said opponent to be forced to stay in place while said user either retreat away from the said opponent or gets closer towards said opponent to strike the said opponent before the opponent can even react. These above are the most common and wider used methods in terms of said user on using their own Grimm-form ability.
And then, in terms of application on utilizing the hallucinatory effect of the purple mist/smoke-like substance the said user generates via specialized Grimm-like matter-made biochemical particulate matter within these mist/smoke, the said user mainly uses these hallucinatory effect on the said opponent in order to obscure and confuse the said opponent's sensory function to a point at losing the said opponent’s own control on their body actions (usually for temporary though could be for a while), such as making the said opponent either “feeling drunken”, “feeling to be tasered”, “feeling to be sprayed by pepper powder” or "feeling that the whole body is on fire” for allowing the said user to leave away from the said opponent at the certain distance.
And for even furthermore ones, asides from using more stronger hallucinatory effect on the said opponent like either making the said opponent "feeling be sleepy" in order to cause the said opponent to lay down on ground and sleep (usually for a while), or making the said opponent either “feeling that the whole body is be stabbed by thousands of blades” or “feeling that the whole body is covered on bugs entirely” for making the said opponent to feeling highly comfortable as well as further scaring the said opponent away, the said user also uses these hallucinatory effect on the said opponent at higher level in order to distract the said opponent's attention as well as reducing the said opponent's hostility, such as making the visual image of certain desired objects [footnote: only from within the said user's own knowledge] (like the beautiful girl or the feasts or the treasures) to lure away the said opponent or making the said user’s own appearance image “even more attractive” for the said opponent to further lower the said opponent’s alertness and vigilance as well, for allowing the said user to have more within-the-situational control and further action considerations over the said opponent (either leaving away from the said opponent while leaving the said opponent to be in alone, capturing the said opponent, attempting to get more intel from the said opponent or other actions). Note: the said user needs to be careful about using food-associated hallucinatory effects (e.g. barbecues, honey), otherwise the said user will sometimes draw some unnecessary additional attention from the animals (e.g dog and bees), which will run towards and onto the said user directly and even bite the said user’s body.
When fighting as group, the said users tend to let themselves be as frontline scout/sentry role by utilizing their own Grimm-form ability of the purple Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter-contained mist/smoke-like substance in form of “extremely thin mist that it is extremely invisible to the naked eye and could not be felt at all” they generated and then spread out into more wider range for allowing them to be able to sense and detect the certain hostile force’s location, size, formation style as well as movement details like moving speed and direction as well, while staying in hidden position under the wider spread-out formation, and then once detecting the exact details of the certain hostile force, the ones as frontline scout/sentry role will use a series of body languages (e.g. hand posture) to send the coded signal/message to their own far-away (usually from “beyond the visual range” distance) behind-the-line main group (who will be received and acknowledged such message by sensing and reading the body language from the ones in far-away frontline scout/sentry role via generating and utilizing the purple Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter-contained mist/smoke-like substance in form of “extremely thin mist that it is extremely invisible to the naked eye and could not be felt at all” as well) about the frontline circumstances, and then their behind-the-line main group will use reported frontline intel to organize and plan for their following actions (including sending additional reinforcements, setting up the ambush, luring the certain hostile force into “certain trap”, encircling the certain hostile force or other actions).
Also, the group of said users use reported frontline intel about the hostile force (whether from the ones as frontline scout/sentry, by themselves or both above) to locate the hostile force's location as well as identify the defensive gaps and weaknesses within the hostile force's formation by sensing and detecting from certain far-away distance via generating and utilizing the purple Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter-contained mist/smoke-like substance in form of “extremely thin mist that it is extremely invisible to the naked eye and could not be felt at all”, and then use the long-ranged weapons they equipped with (including but not limited to throwing weapons, slings, bows and arrows, crossbows and bolts, as well as later-introduced firearms) to create a series of long-range volley on the hostile force in more focused and precious fashion after identifying any potential defensive gaps and weaknesses within the hostile force's formation, locating the exact location and position of the hostile force's formation, adjusting their own shooting angle, and targeting on those any potential defensive gaps and weaknesses within the hostile force's formation. And then once the hostile force march toward at the position of [Perfume succubus] tribal long-range weapon users, these said long-range weapon users will fell back from the frontline while the ones who equipped with melee weapon as well as protective gears like shield will move forward and provide the cover for the retreating long-range weapon users, and once getting within the melee range with the hostile force, the ones who equipped with melee weapon as well as protective gears will into the melee fight with the hostile force while using their own Grimm-form along with their own equipped weapons as well (e.g. using purple mist/smoke-like substance the said users generate for covering the whole fighting field to allow the said users to have their own further enhance reactional speed for performing the rapid counterattack actions against the hostile force's combatants).
Furthermore, in terms of defending their own settlement against the hostile force's base, once sensing and detecting the size, movements as well as attacking directions of the hostile force via generating and utilizing the purple Grimm-like matter-made specialized biochemical particulate matter-contained mist/smoke-like substance in form of “extremely thin mist that it is extremely invisible to the naked eye and could not be felt at all”, the said users, as the defendants, will focus on defending these breaching points that have been gone through their settlement defensive line, and then the said users will repel those intruding hostile force out of their own settlement, by using their own equipped weapons along with utilizing their own Grimm-form ability to generate and launch (usually using the arm only) the jet stream of purple hallucinatory mist/smoke-like substance at the hostile force's combatants to cause those combatants losing their fighting capabilities for allowing the said users to have easier repulsion on those intruding hostile force.
Lastly, in terms of intruding the hostile force's base, the said users spread around the hostile force's base individually and encircle the hostile force's base at first (usually at nighttime when the hostile force within the base are resting), and then the said users utilize their own Grimm-form ability to generate and launch (usually using their own body along with using the arms only sometimes) the giant clouds of purple hallucinatory mist/smoke-like substance and spread through the whole the hostile force's base directionally (in terms of exact contents on the hallucinatory effect within purple mist/smoke-like substance the said users use, these effects could be either “feeling very sleepy”, “having nice-and-sweeting dream while stay sleeping”, or “feeling very exhausting” etc.) to cause the entire hostile force within the base losing any chances and capabilities to counterattack and allow the said users enter into the hostile force's base in terms of intruding the hostile force's base, the said users spread around the hostile force's base individually and encircle the hostile force's base at first (usually at nighttime when the hostile force within the base are resting), and then the said users utilize their own Grimm-form ability to generate and launch (usually using their own body along with using the arms only sometimes) the giant clouds of purple hallucinatory mist/smoke-like substance and spread through the whole the hostile force's base directionally (in terms of exact contents on the hallucinatory effect within purple mist/smoke-like substance the said users use, these effects could be either “feeling very sleepy”, “having nice-and-sweeting dream while stay sleeping”, or “feeling very exhausting” etc.) to cause the entire hostile force within the base losing any chances and capabilities to counterattack and allow the said users enter into the hostile force's base at minimum risks as well as their own further actions within the hostile force's base (e.g. gathering intel, (sometimes capturing the hostile force's male personals only, especially when their own tribes have the need of having more male), collecting the essential material supplies (e.g. foods and weapons) their own tribes need).
[Societal Aspects]
[!BRIEF INFORM!]: In terms of their fundamental family unit structure within the [Perfume succubus] tribes, each of the fundamental family unit within the [Perfume succubus] tribes is formed of (usually one or two, sometimes could be a handful of) mothers living along with her own (whether they are blood relatives or not) female siblings as well as her own (either birthed or adapted) daughters, and their own younger family members (including female infants) are taken care and nurture by their own adults (sometimes teenage-aged female tribal members as well) with their own family, sometimes they will form informal young-caring group along with other families within their own family groups under the [Perfume succubus] tribal structure. While the grandmothers (whether from any family groups within the [Perfume succubus] tribes) are technically still considered as a part of her own family unit, they usually live with their own similar kinds and live in relative separated residence within the [Perfume succubus] tribal settlement all together as the their own distinct group within the [Perfume succubus] tribal society structure called “whitehair-wisers” who are named after their own white or grey hairs once entering the elder-like age. Besides, these tribal male members (including fathers, grandfathers, brothers, uncles, nephews and sons) within the [Perfume succubus] tribes usually brought in as well as live with their own similar kinds in highly-separated residence within the [Perfume succubus] tribal settlement all together while live in highly-separated living away from their own female family members once they are around age of 5, not only live and foster by their own tribal male members only while maintaining separational living with their own female family members, but also nurtured and educated by their own tribal male members only as well and they are usually restricted to be stayed their own lives within the [Perfume succubus] tribal settlement even they are at working-age, as well as the tribal male members (usually on teenage-aged to young-adult-aged male tribal members)' own marriages are all managed and arranged by “whitehair-wisers” in order to fulfill their tribal female members' own fertility demands as well as ensure their stable and increase-able population. Besides, the female tribal members have generally higher social status within their own tribal structure compare to their male counterparts, so their female family members (including grandmothers, aunts, nieces, female cousins, mothers, sisters and daughters) tend to have more respectfulness as well as more influence within their own tribal structure compare to their male counterparts
In general, their society are catalogued into several distinct groups within the [Perfume succubus] tribes: "cradle’s families'', “whitehair-wisers”, "the embraced", "the gathered", and "the shared" (aka the tribal male members). In this following, these distinct groups will be in more detailed form:
1."cradle’s families'': The "cradle’s families'', whose tribal social status are similar to the core family groups of Eastern (Anima) Grimm-folk tribes in general sense, are formed of the current matriarchal female tribal leader (who is characterized by a multicolored neck-worn cape-like shawl, which is fastened with a pearl-shaped bead at the middle after wearing on neck, with several thick light-purple lines on edge)and her own family along with several other families who have similar status as current matriarchal female tribal leader’s own family as well. The position as tribal leader of their own [Perfume succubus] tribe is appointed by going through the election among the members of both "cradle’s families'' and “whitehair-wisers” at the certain selected period, rather than being inherited from preview tribal leader by having same bloodline as the preview tribal leader has, and in case of the previous matriarchal female tribal leader who fails to be appointed from the election, she needs to wait for the next election to have the chance to be appointed again. Within the said position as matriarchal female tribal leader, she not only is responsible for managing and overseeing their own tribal matters, but also involving in several decision makings including holding (both civil and war) council meeting with other their high ranked tribal members, distributing and redistributing tribal resources (e.g. farm-able fields, harvested-and-stored crops, their-own-tribe-owned livestock, stored food and equipment, provide-able materials like dust crystals along with other craft-able materials, and even available trading goods) and even participate in several exterior diplomatic matters of both among other [Perfume succubus] tribes and those (whether from Grimm-folks or nor) outside groups who are beyond their own tribe, and only (both current and previous) matriarchal female tribal leader‘s mothers living along with her own female siblings as well as their grandmothers from “whitehair-wisers” allow to be participated as advisers to their matriarchal tribal leader of their own tribe during tribal council meeting while their own daughters are not allow unless they grow at around adult age. In case of any things happened to the current matriarchal female tribal leader (e.g. being either killed, felled unwell, or too injured for handling daily matters), the members of both "cradle’s families'' and “whitehair-wisers” will hold the urgent election to appoint the temporary matriarchal female tribal leader from the members of both "cradle’s families'' and "the embraced" for continuing their tribal ruling until either the current matriarchal female tribal leader being uncovered or the next election held by the members of both "cradle’s families'' and “whitehair-wisers”.
2.“whitehair-wisers”: characterized by a mostly-white-colored neck-worn cape-like shawl, which is fastened with a pearl-shaped bead at the middle after wearing on neck, with some thick light-purple lines on edge, the “whitehair-wisers”, whose tribal social status are between the core family groups and sub-tribal family groups of Eastern (Anima) Grimm-folk tribes in general sense, are formed of the grandmothers who come from all distinct groups (including from "cradle’s families'', "the embraced" and "the gathered" respectively) within their own tribe. Although they don’t take part in the any leadership roles on their own tribe generally, their main roles are aside from educating the younger tribal female members, they also provide their own suggestions and advisements to their own current matriarchal female tribal leader as well as participate in their own current matriarchal female tribal leader-held (both civil and war) council meetings as well as the election for appointing the matriarchal female tribal leader within their own tribe. Besides from their participations on political aspects, they also responsible for managing, overseeing and controlling their own tribal population, recording and preserving all historical marriage records of their tribal members within their own tribe as well as managing and arranging the marriage for their male tribal members (especially on teenage-aged to young-adult-aged male tribal members) for fulfilling their tribal female members' own fertility demands as well as ensure their stable and increase-able population, sometimes they will contact with their counterparts from other [Perfume succubus] tribes and then “import” some of male tribal population from other [Perfume succubus] tribes into their own tribe in case of having certain specifical circumstances (such as [their own male tribal population are too few] or [their own male tribal population aren’t well enough to attract their own their own female tribal population to mate with] etc.).
3."the embraced": "The embraced", whose tribal social status are similar to the sub-tribal family groups of Eastern (Anima) Grimm-folk tribes in general sense, are formed of plentiful families who have their own inherited specialist roles within their own tribe for ensuring the daily functionalities within their own tribe, and there are equally considered as highly regarded tribal roles among these said families, fundamentally speaking. They are not only lived in their own independent residence along with their own family members rather than lived in communal style, but also have their own private assets along with their own their-role-related facilities (e.g. tribal temple for [Aroma-priest], training ground for [Aroma-armed], workshop for blacksmith etc.). Asides doing their own tribal specialist duties, they sometimes are summoned and invited by the members of the their own current matriarchal female tribal leader-held (both civil and war) council meeting for providing their own additional in-deep suggestions and advisements to their own current matriarchal female tribal leader (there are no any specifications for the members of " The embraced " on what kind of council meeting is needed to participate to, the ones who have military-related roles tend to historically participate in tribal war meeting while the others tend to historically participate in tribal civil meeting). In this following, these tribal roles will be in more detailed form:
(as well as cloth-made thong worn under the skirt) while being painted by multiple scented-plant-sourced color paints in form of multiple curved outline shapes and patterns on full body (head-worn cloth/beads-made headbands will be wore additionally according to their own personal needs during the dancing performance) (a light-colored full body cloak will be wore additionally when they are handling daily matters while not dancing), the said role is generally assigned to younger female members of [Aroma-priest] families and they are be as lower-ranked assistant/second-in-charge for the [Aroma-priest] which could be promoted to the said role at later on once having enough experiences at certain degree, aside from helping [Aroma-priest] to do assistive works such as maintaining their tribal temple along with these surrounding on-ground fragranced candles as well as the altars within the subterrain layers, crafting the scented clayballs as well as being the representative spokeswoman for the [Aroma-priest] themselves, they also participate in dancing performance under background music provided by nearby musical instrument players during certain tribal festivals as the ritualic measure for expelling the evil spirits as well as associated negative energies and ensuring to have more blessing to their own tribe. Usually, their own dancing theme inspirations are mostly drawn from their own tribal mythological lore. During the said dancing performance, their dancing not only are featuring percussive hits, fluid undulations, and fast shimmies by utilizing their own limbs, torso and chest while involving a lots of spinning and hopping movements as well, but also use their own Grimm-form ability to generate (at least low concentration amount of) purple mist/smoke-like substance partially in order to provide “additional layer of sensory experience”. note: the said dancing performed by the [Aroma-dancer] is said to be so beautiful and graceful that they are attracted lots of attentions from the many members of the other Grimm-folk tribes and Clan leader and their family members of "Four underworld families", but also some nobilities and even royal family's members form both First and second Mistral empire as well that [Aroma-dancer] were invited to their own private royal party occasionally for their dancing performance for the entertainment purpose, and then there are some said dancing performance hold at certain tiny parts for entertainment purpose within large-scale underground urban district below the {Eastern clan}'s said turf in current days.(which is their representational color for those who have military-related roles within their own tribe) cloth-made short scarf which is fastened with a purple-colored rounded bead a light-purple-colored full body cloak will be wore additionally as their formal attire when they participate in tribal council meeting, they are mainly as their tribal main fighting force as well as leading their own militia force. For "the bonded" (aka the militia member) to become "Aroma-armed", the bonded generally needs to defeat several "Aroma-armed" ’s opponents under the ritualic duel called “first-wounding” (whoever (while both of them are in their own completed Grimm-form) using a small-knife to infect the cutting wound on another opponent firstly within the drawn circle will be considered as winner) as proof of said person's martial skill capabilities, and the overall approvements from members of "the embraced", “whitehair-wisers” as well as "cradle’s families''. Moreover, there are several types of distinct role among the rank of "Aroma-armed", which will be in more detailed form about each of the distinct roles respectively: (for both as imitational effect and ritualic mean for "expelling the evil spirits") and the head-worn light-purple-colored cloth-made slightly curved metal plate-attached headband which is embedded with multiple multi-colored beads as well as being painted by multiple multi-color paints in form of multiple curved outline shapes and patterns on full body, they are mainly as elite bodyguard for their own tribal members of "the gathered", "the embraced", “whitehair-wisers” and "cradle’s families'' (including the current matriarchal female tribal leader and her own family as well) as well as the main defensive force of their own tribal settlement. the current matriarchal female tribal leader and her own family’s own approvements are additionally needed besides from those from "the embraced", “whitehair-wisers” and "cradle’s families'' in case of when "the bonded" (aka the militia member) to become “Cradle-guard”. They usually operated in a group. Asides from using polearm weapons like glaives as their main weapon, they also use short sword/axe/mace as their melee weapons and use bow and arrows (and later-introduced firearms as well, mostly prefer using pistols) as their long-ranged weapons, besides they wear protective armor (e.g. Lamellar armor) as well as small-to-medium-sized rounded shield for the protection purpose. Asides from having the access to better weapon and equipment as well as their own private assets, they are also able to receive more specific military education and more advanced martial training that is only be taught within "Cradle-guard" group.4."the gathered": "The gathered", whose tribal social status are similar to the lower-rank family groups of Eastern (Anima) Grimm-folk tribes in general sense, are formed of numerous families who live in the communal longhouse where about 2 to 3 families live in. They are the fundamental mainforce of handling daily tribal works for ensuring their own tribe’s functionalities and their roles are including farmer (for both crop-farming and livestock raising), laborer, woodcutter/bamboo cutter, miner, weaver, fisherwomen, the hunter and forager, and even the small-scale stall seller. While they usually give a portion of what they have in daily activities to their tribal leader and the "cradle’s families'' (especially in their tribal storehouses) and sometimes served as militia called “the bonded”, their tribal leader along with "cradle’s families'' will provide a portion of resources (including farm-able fields, residences and equipment) as well as protection, tribal communality services provided by "the embraced" and even hold occasional celebrational and holiday events in return on the "the gathered" ’s contributions on their own tribe. When as “the bonded”, asides from the head-worn cloth-made slightly curved metal plate-attached headband that leave with few short pieces of cloth, they are also equipped with long wooden/bamboo-made staff when they are in security patrol outside their own tribal settlement or guarding their own tribal settlement’s gateways. And in terms of during battle scenario, they will be equipped with the various weaponry along with protective gears according to their own battlefield role, such as either being equipped with the long-range weaponry (e.g. throwing knives, throwing axes, throwing spears, slings, bows and arrows, crossbows and bolts, as well as later-introduced firearms) along with forearm armors when as long-ranged weapon users (e.g. archers, gunners), or being equipped with melee weaponry like spear as well as short sword/axe/mace along with the metal helmet, a plant fiber (e.g. linen)-made layered armor vest and a large oval/round-cornered rectangle/kite-shaped shield when as melee weapon users (e.g. infantry). Sometimes they will be equipped with a eyes-and-mouth-covered paper/plant-fiber/wooden/clay-made filtered mask for protecting themselves in case of facing the purple hallucinatory mist/smoke-like substance generated from the certain higher-level [Perfume succubus] Grimm-form user. Though these above weaponry as well as protective gears are technically supplied by “the gathered” themselves, those said weaponry as well as protective gears are mainly provided by their own tribe’s armory under the management of their own matriarchal female tribal leader as well as the members of "cradle’s families'' and "the embraced".
5. "the shared" (aka the tribal male members): "The shared", whose tribal social status are usually descripted as “borderline group within the [Perfume succubus] tribes”, are formed of tribal male members (including fathers, grandfathers, brothers, uncles, nephews and sons) within their own tribe. They are usually brought in by their own female tribal members (usually by their own mothers) as well as live with their own similar kinds in highly-separated residence within their own tribal settlement all together while live in highly-separated living away from their own female family members once they are around age of 5. Despite having the caring, nurturing and education provided by their own tribal male members along with the additional supportive assistances received from some female tribal members (either their own female family members or tribal female volunteers) who are as the visitor when entering the said residence, they are only allowed to live by their own tribal male members only and within the said residence only while maintaining separational living with their own female family members at the majority of the lifetime of the male tribal members which to a certain point that the majority of female tribal members are quite rarely see the appearances of their male counterparts within their own tribe. Not only they are taught different compare to their female counterparts (e.g. more emphasizing on etiquette and fine art within their male-exclusive educational contents as well as only be taught about the very basic understandings of their own Grimm-form utilization) and they are usually restricted to be stayed their own lives within their own tribal settlement even they are at working-age and not allow to have any positions of political, economic and military aspects within their own tribe, also they are only allowed to engage in few of heavily symbolic and non-physical works such as “manner keeper” and fine artists as well, but also the tribal male members (usually on teenage-aged to young-adult-aged male tribal members)' own marriages are all managed and arranged by “whitehair-wisers” in order to fulfill their tribal female members' own fertility demands as well as ensure their stable and increase-able population. Note: the male tribal members have been make some attempting to improve their own status within their own tribes after they own individual way of interactive contacting with the world beyond their own tribes around the beginning of second mistral empire era, so that their own status within their own tribes, as well as the female tribal members' treatment toward their male counterparts, have more or less slightly improvement compare to their female counterparts at very recent times despite at mere degree, such as starting to build up their own tribal diplomatic network with their counterparts from other [Perfume succubus] tribes within their own tribes of whole Anima continent for handling the tribal marriage affairs.
Note: Although theoretically speaking the tribal female members of "the gathered" are allowed to mate with the “the shared” (except the ones as their own blood family male members), just like the ones from "cradle’s families'' as well as "the embraced", the tribal female members of "the gathered" are more prefer on mating with other male (either human or Faunus) partners who are in beyond their [perfume succubus] tribes, that the tribal female members of "the gathered" will leave their own tribes (mostly at around teenage-to-young-adult age) (usually alone, sometimes form a three-to-four small group with other tribal female members of "the gathered") in casual, and temporary manner which called [Seed-picking trip](which are still continuing in recent time sometimes), then they will travel far away from their own tribal homelands in order to find their own male marriage partner in other places (which can go far away to borderline zone of eastern-Sanus coastline along with several nearby areas), and then once the tribal female members of "the gathered" has found their own male marriage partner in the outside world, they will build up some sort of “romantic relationship” with their own male marriage partner and following with having their own ‘one night stand’. After the ‘one night stand’, they will quietly leave their male partner alone (some of good-hearted ones will transport their said male partner at certain location where the said male partner’s own group are nearby (or nearby the outside world’s settlements in some cases) before they leave) and then go back to their own tribes, and lastly the tribal female members of "the gathered" are be pregnant as well as their own childbirth.
Though there are not few of bisexual and heterosexual individual existed within their own tribes, the majority of their female tribal are homosexual, so that there are many customs that involve these girl-to-girl-only interaction being derived, such as the one of the most common custom called "scent-gathering" that all available tribal teenage-aged female members are invited and then agreed to participate in this said practice in pure oral manner firstly (usually held said practice irregularly and often at the winter festival days), then all invited tribal teenage-aged female members are gone to certain custom-holding host (aka certain tribal teenage-aged female member)’s longhouse and gathered at the inside the longhouse at night in hidden and secret manner, after that they started with some chatting and snack-eating with each other before hugging and even kissing each other deeply while huddling each other all together until the next dawn and all of them back to their own home, and there is also another similar one albeit with held in more highly private manner called “aroma-surrounding” that involves so much more “highly mature sexual elements” which only more grown up tribal teenage-aged female members participate in certain subterrain-located residence (especially the certain one of "the embraced").
[Cultural Aspects]
In terms of residence, their house has two types of shape according to exact environment their own house located: "the land surface one" and the subterrain one":
Overall speaking, the said residence is surrounded by earth-made walls (with some dig-out windows covered with fold plant-fiber mats) supported additionally by wooden/bamboo frames while the rooftop part is thatched with the plant fibers (e.g. bamboo fibers, remaining grain straws, water reeds). And inside the said residence, the floors of the residence areas (except the residence’s entrance areas) within the said residence are raised platform that cover with plant-fiber-made mats, and the doorway of the entrance area is covered with a single wooden/bamboo door. Besides, there is an underground layer of relatively large (around 2 to 3 meters tall) space (mainly used for food, material and equipment storage purposes) which is below the said residence, and the said underground space can be gone through by the ladders of the hidden covered entrances which usually located at the residence’s entrance areas as well as other similar space within the said residence.
In terms of said residence the "the gathered" lived, they live in the form of (slightly bended rounded-cornered rectangle (its Inward bend part is toward at the central part of their own tribal) shape from the bird's eye view) communal longhouse where about 2 to 3 families live in, and there are (around 2 to 3) interconnected sections where each of the longhouse-living families live in separated by the long and wide rolling plant-fiber-made screens as well as the tiny empty spaces between these sections within the said longhouse, which are also the entrance areas of said longhouse. Also, the tiny empty spaces between these sections within the said longhouse are placed several storage baskets for storing communal tools (e.g. farming tools and repair tools), as well as the hidden covered entrances that go through the large underground storage space below said longhouse. Within each section within the said longhouse, there are a shorten-fenced campfire place (mainly used for warming and cooking purposes) (along with breathing holes above the fireplace that go through the roof and the poles for closing the hole's cover on the roof during the rain) at the central position within the family-living section, and their family own stuffs (e.g. sitting mats, low-legged foldable table, several storage baskets) are usually placed the wall-sides of the family-living section within the longhouse. During the sleeping time, they will take these sleeping bags out of their high shelves on the top of family-living section within the longhouse while laying down two of the long and wide rolling plant-fiber-made screens from two sides of campfire place in order to separate into "campfire place area" and "sleeping areas".
In terms of said residence the "the embraced" lived, they live in the form of roundhouse whose exterior layer of the house is painted with more varieties of color paints and patterns on their residence's walls, and especially in case the residence where the military-related "the embraced" 's family groups live, their residence's walls are painted with a higher ratio of light-purple color paints. There are these associated facilities (e.g. tribal temple for [Aroma-priest], training ground for [Aroma-armed], workshop for blacksmith etc.) "the embraced" 's family groups owned where are usually located at nearby "the embraced" 's residences, there is not only have short-fenced campfire place for both warming and cooking purposes (along with breathing holes above the fireplace that go through the roof and the poles for closing the hole's cover on the roof during the rain) in central position of said residence and in front of the entrance area within the said house, but also have the low-legged table with some sitting mats surrounding the table which are placed at behind the fireplace while several storage baskets are placed at the surrounding both the campfire place and the table, and the hidden covered entrances that go through the large underground storage space below said house are located at both the entrance area within the said house and behind the location of placed table with some sitting mats. Additionally, there are certain amounts of private rooms (where have a sleeping mat along with quilt per room generally) at the surrounding both the campfire place and the table where at the surrounding within said house.
Overall speaking, the said residence's shape is "rounded-corner (extremely-steep sloped-sides) wider-base-and-wider-top trapezoidal prism with the top of square pyramid" in order to have better chance for withstanding the earthquakes as well as preventing to be collapsed by the earthquakes, and also all walls of said residence are earth-made (with some dig-out windows covered with fold plant-fiber mats) that are further infused with certain enhanced-earthquake-resistance-formula as well as supported additionally by wooden/bamboo frames. The doorway of the entrance area is covered with a single wide-and-long plant-fiber (e.g. bamboo-fiber) rolling screen as well as there are a pair of plant-fiber-framed lanterns be hold at the outside front of the said residence's entrance. Within the said residence, the floors of the residence areas (except the residence’s entrance areas) within the said residence are raised platform that cover with plant-fiber-made mats, and their family own stuffs (including food, material and equipment as well) are usually stored in both storage baskets at surrounding rooms within the said residence and within the siderooms within the said residence (sometime stored in the dig-out space on the top of the said residence).
In terms of said residence the "the embraced" as well as "cradle’s families'', lived, they live in the form of relatively large house. The exterior layer of their house is painted with more varieties of color paints and patterns on their residence's walls, and especially in case the residence where the military-related "the embraced" 's family groups live, their residence's walls are painted with a higher ratio of light-purple color paints, and also the higher tribal status the tribal members have, having large and a greater number of private rooms of said house where the tribal members live. There is not only have short-fenced campfire place for both warming and cooking purposes (along with breathing holes above the fireplace that go through the roof) in central position of said residence and in front of the entrance area within the said house, but also have the low-legged table with some sitting mats surrounding the table which are placed at behind the fireplace. The storage-purposed siderooms within said residence are placed between the private rooms (where have a sleeping mat along with quilt per room generally) at the surrounding both the campfire place and the table where at the surrounding within said house.
In terms of said residence the “whitehair-wisers” lived, their own residence is in form of "their four houses enclose the open central yard". The exterior (and interior) layer of their house are painted with more varieties of color paints and patterns on their residence's walls. The subterrain open central yard within the said residence is not only served as the gathering place, but also served as meal space as well as relaxing space. Within each their own house, there is not only have short-fenced campfire place for both warming and cooking purposes (along with breathing holes above the fireplace that go through the roof) in central position of said residence and in front of the entrance area within the said house, but also have the low-legged table with some sitting mats surrounding the table which are placed at behind the fireplace. The storage-purposed siderooms within said residence are placed between the private rooms (where have a sleeping mat along with quilt per room generally) at the surrounding both the campfire place and the table where at the surrounding within said house.
In terms of said residence the “the shared” lived, they live in the form of "the open central yard encircled by large house that could house lots of people". Both exterior and interior layer of their house is painted with less-to-none varieties of color paints and patterns on their residence's walls compared to their female counterparts. There is short-fenced campfire place at the central within the subterrain open central yard for both warming and cooking purposes. The subterrain open central yard within the said residence is not only served as the gathering place, but also served as meal space as well as relaxing space. The storage-purposed siderooms within said residence are placed between the individual rooms (where have several sleeping mats along with quilts per room generally) at the surrounding subterrain open central yard within the said house.
Note: only the members of "cradle’s families'', “whitehair-wisers” and "the shared" are allowed to reside in their own tribal settlement's subterrain area while the members of "the gathered" are resided on their own tribal settlement's surface area, and then the members of "the embraced" could be resided either on the surface area or subterrain area within their own tribal settlement (though they mostly reside on their own tribal settlement's surface area).
In terms of tribal settlement, their tribal settlement is usually settled on relatively lower altitude area within the mountainous region (e.g. within or nearby the mountain valley), while having (mostly are artificial by digging with tools (sometimes along with certain numbers of assistance from numbers of certain [Blackmud demon] Grimm-folk tribes)) tremendous bell-shaped subterrain cavernous space, where is located below the said settlement, for the residence purpose mainly.
On the surface of their own tribal settlement, there is a large two-stories-tall roundhouse located at the central position within their own tribal settlement, whose first floor and second floor within said building are mainly used as the place of gathering and council-meeting holding place, while the underground layer below the said large roundhouse is used as the entrance area that go toward the large bell-shaped subterrain cavernous space below the said settlement (until the certain subterrain layer that above the subterrain layer of “the shared”-only residence area) which could be go here through either the double spinning stair whose both of passway entries are located at the surrounding side of the underground layer below the said large roundhouse. Beyond the said large roundhouse at the central position within their own tribal settlement, there are plentiful of residences the "the embraced" lived along with several essential tribal facilities (including tribal storehouses, workshops, armories, cleared large tribal plaza (for various purposes including military training and celebrational performance and gathering for receiving news of tribal council's important decision), open marketplaces, public bathhouses) are surrounding nearby the central position of their tribal settlement, and the tribal temple for [Aroma-priest] are spreading distributed within their own tribal settlement in form of small thatched house on low-raised platform where not only have the image of their worshiped deities on fiber-made paper held midair inside the said temple, but also there have behind within said temple have hidden passway (either in form of spinning railed staircase or handcrafted mechanical lift in more advanced mean) that go under the subterrain residence layer. Beyond the area of the “the embraced” 's residences are then following with surrounded by numerous residences lived by "the gathered" along with small storehouses, communal cleared/sheltered space along with settled cooking facilities (e.g. campfire site and earth-oven) for communal meal, public bathhouses, farming fields as well as livestock-raising areas (e.g. poultry (e.g. chicken, geese, duck) hut, silkworm-farming hut, goat/small-sized pig fenced farm), and then surrounded by nearby the spreading-distributed series of 2-meter-tall wooden/bamboo-made sentry watchtowers, and then surrounded by long-and-relatively-tall wooden/bamboo spiked walls which the tribal member could go to the relatively high part of the said wall by standing on the lower platform behind the wall by climbing up/down the stair/ladder from the ground onto said lower platform behind the wall. Outside the wooden/bamboo spiked walls of the said tribal settlement, aside from a pair of large wooden/bamboo-made reinforced gate-like doors at the single entrance passway of their own tribal settlement, the series of angled projecting wooden/bamboo (sharped parts being pointed at outside the said tribal settlement) spikes are placed between at front of the wooden/bamboo spiked walls and behind the long lines of trenches, and in further away place from the said tribal settlement, there are several of said scented-clayballs-stuffed pockets which be hold on the top of trees/bamboos midair as marking of their own tribal territory perimeter. exact ingredient content within the scented clayballs as well as the color details of the clayballs-holding bag are uniquely different among from tribe to tribe among the [Perfume succubus] Grimm-folk.
Below their own tribal settlement, there is a tremendous bell-shaped subterrain cavernous space that is around 5 meters away from the surface, and the all the interior cavewalls within the said subterrain cavernous space are further covered with concrete coatings that is infused with certain enhanced-earthquake-resistance-formula as well as supported additionally by wooden/bamboo frames, along with multiple varieties of drawn multicolored paints and patterns on these said interior cavewalls, there are also the several drawn interior-cavewallpaint image of their worshipped deities that are located at near the bottom surrounding edge within the layer of subterrain cavernous space which several of the small wooden altar, whose relatively-slimmed fragranced candles are placed on top of the altar, is place under the said image of each of their worshipped deities respectively. And then each layer of subterrain cavernous space is around 7 meters tall, and plus there is around 6 meter deep of concreted earthbase between the layers within the said subterrain cavernous space. While all the tribal female members, like the members of "cradle’s families'', “whitehair-wisers” as well as "the embraced", lives in several top closer-to-surface layers within the said subterrain cavernous space, only the members of "the shared" live in most bottom layer within the said subterrain cavernous space. Within the said subterrain layer (except from the subterrain layer of “the shared”-only residence area), the said gigantic (certain enhanced-earthquake-resistance-formula-infused) earth-made pillar which surround with is further surrounded by plentiful of residences the "cradle’s families'', “whitehair-wisers” as well as "the embraced" lived along with several essential tribal facilities (including tribal storehouses, workshops, armories, cleared mid-large-size tribal plaza (for various purposes including military training and celebrational performance and gathering for receiving news of tribal council's important decision), marketplaces (which are opened to "the gathered" as well), public bathhouses) and then there are included certain large numbers of farming fields and other associated areas (including aquaculture and livestock raising) where are usually spreading around (both within and outside, as well as above and below) the said subterrain cavernous space as well. In terms of the certain subterrain layer that above the subterrain layer of “the shared”-only residence area, there not only has the independent entrance that towards the subterrain layer of “the shared”-only residence area are further guarded by the cradle-guards as well as additional amount of "the bonded", but also have the tunnel passages that could go to the subterrain marketplaces hold by [Blackmud demon] tribal members. Compared to their female counterpart ones, there are lack of certain facilities like armories as well as marketplaces within the subterrain layer of “the shared”-only residence area, as well as lack of any colored paints and pattern on their interior cavewalls within the subterrain layer of “the shared”-only residence area. lastly, the above all layers' lighting within said subterrain cavernous space are lighted by certain numbers of either crystal-lamp-like lantern which holding midair by pole or glass/certain-semitransparent-fungus-matter-made vassal filled with "glowing spring-water" on stone/certain-harden-fungus-matter-made holder placed on ground which traded from [Blackmud demon] tribal members.
In terms of food source, despite their own tribal diet could be influenced by the exact environment they lived on, (e.g. the north-living tribe eating cheese and milk from their own farmed goat while another inland-coast-living one eating fish they caught), they usually get their own food from either hunting, fishing, foraging or farming source, and their general tribal diet are including taro, sweet potato, oat and "towering buckwheat"(one of the domesticated surface-grown-only grain cultivated by the [Perfume succubus] tribal members, which have buckwheat-like appearance and could grow to about 3 to 4 meter tall as well as having exceptional amount of grains if grown completely) as their main stable, and the cabbage, broccoli, celery, konjac, various climbing gourds (e.g. sponge gourd), various beans (e.g. soybean), various edible mushrooms (mostly from both farming and trading sources due to the risk of picking up poisonous mushrooms accidently)as well as bamboo shoots (all from foraging source) as their usual vegetable (mostly from farming source), and the Mangosteen, wax apple, Longan, passion fruit, lime, thin-skin soursweet citrus as well as various berries as their usual fruit (mostly from farming source), and the poultries (e.g. chicken, quail, geese, duck), small mammals (e.g. rabbit and bamboo rat), goat, pig (including certain small-sized pig breeds they cultivated), version and wild boar as their usual meat (mostly from farming source while certain meats like version and wild boar are from hunting source), and the fish (from caught from both inland sea (e.g. trout and catfish) and outside coastline (e.g. Grey Mullet)), shellfish, crab and shrimp as their usual fish and seafood (mostly from fishing and farming source), and lastly the goat-milk, goat-cheese, poultries' laid eggs as well as insects (e.g. silkworm) as their usual additional protein source. In terms of cooking method, aside from raw consumption (usually in form of salad), they also cook above-mentioned food sources in various methods like steaming, stewing, simmering, boiling, stir-frying, roasting and metal-net-grilling, seasoned with herbs and spices (e.g. ginger, perilla, pepper, fish mint) and other spices as well as salt from trading sources, along with preserve said food in these methods like smoking, pickling, curing and fermenting.
These following dishes are quite common among the [Perfume succubus] tribal people:
[footnote: In terms of sweeteners they used, they mainly on fruit flesh, peel paste and juice to enhance their foods sweetness, while cane sugar is mostly from trading source.]
[footnote: certain foods, like roasted whole pig/goat, usually only are cooked in outdoor cooking space as well as only eat in during certain festival.]
In terms of beverage, asides from the alcohol drinks like fruitwines and buckwheat-fermented wines, they also have non-alcohol drinks such as juices and tea which is boiled from foraged tea leaves. Besides, they usually drink these beverages (e.g. fruitwines and buckwheat-fermented wines as well as juices) in bowl while drinking tea in small cup.
In terms of recreation, aside from these common ones among eastern (anima) Grimm-folk tribes such as dual sparring, wrestling, spear throwing and archery, they also play various ball games, which among two of them being most popular among [Perfume succubus] tribal members: 'multi-balls-dodgeball' [using a drawn large colored circle which is separated by a straight line, which three bamboo-strips-woven hollow balls are placed on, as playing court, the (about 5 to 6) players from two teams are positioned at within the one of the drawn half-circle, and must need to throw the balls to hit the players of the opposite team in order to get said players of the opposite team outside the drawn circle while avoid to be hit by the balls thrown by the opposite team once get these three balls as many as they can. Once be hit by the balls thrown by the opposite team, the said player must position themselves at outside edge of the opposite team's half-circle, which allow the said player to receive the ball thrown by their own teammates and then throw the ball at the players of the opposite team. Each of the players must hold one ball only. In terms of their utilization of their own Grimm-form abilities, they only allow to use their own Grimm-form abilities for detection only. And lastly the team with the most their player stay within their own half-circle zone after the end of the given time are considered as winning team.] and 'net-hole ball' [using a drawn large colored rectangle which is separated across by a wide-and-long two-poles-hold (around 3 to 4 meters tall for both poles) net which a large oval-shaped net hole (about 60 cm in diameter) being located at the middle-upper position of the said net as playing court, the (about 4 to 5) players from two teams are positioned at within the one of the drawn half-rectangle. Players must pass the bamboo-strips-woven hollow ball to each other using feet, knees, elbows, shoulders, chest and head (NO HANDS ALLOWED!) while keeping the ball be stayed in midair and never let the ball touch the ground, and then the certain player will kick the stay-in-midair-ball directly through the hole of net (MUST KICK THE BALL THROUGH THE SAID HOLE ONLY) to the other side, while the players on the other side must catch (NO HANDS ALLOWED TOO!) or intercept the ball and then kicking the stay-in-midair-ball directly through the hole of net as well while shot the said ball back to opposite team before it hits the ground. When the one team shot the ball through the hole of net to the other side successfully while the other team fail to intercept the ball and let the ball be hit the ground, the 1 score will be given to the ball-shooting team as well as the ball is given to said scored team for starting another round of game. In terms of their utilization of their own Grimm-form abilities, they only allow to use their own Grimm-form abilities for detection only. And lastly the team with the highest score after the end of given time are considered as winning team]. Beyond these above-mentioned sports, they also do handcrafting, weaving, sculpture making, playing music instruments (mainly in forms of wind instruments (e.g. bamboo-flute), percussion instruments (e.g. handdrum and xylophone) and string instruments (e.g. small portable zheng) as well) as well as dancing, playing board and tabletop games which come from the outside world like Mistral chess (aka chinese Weiqi) and storytelling (especially on mythical ones) in their leisure times.
In terms of trading activity, they mainly use bartering system among their tribal members according to certain item exchange rule settled by their tribal merchants, and when trading with those beyond their tribes, besides using cyan dust-crystals for trading with the [Blackmud demon] Grimm-folk tribes, they use currency which are available in said according time periods (e.g. imperial-issued currency during era of both first mistral empire and second mistral empire, Lien when after the Great war).
In terms of clothing, the description about their tribal clothing will be in more detailed form at the following:
(Moreover, while there are no any specifications in terms of their hairstyle, it is usual for the members of "the gathered" to keep their hair be relatively short (at most keep the hair at shoulder-length) or be tied up, and for the members of "cradle’s families'' and "the embraced" to tend to keep their hair be relatively long as presentation of their higher social status (though it is usual for the military-related "the embraced" 's members to keep their hair be tied up).)
(Moreover, while there are no any specifications in terms of their hairstyle, it is usual for them to have shorter hair.)
During the period between first mistral empire era and second mistral empire era, several fashions from both of said empires are introduced into their tribes, especially **[Daxiushan from first mistral empire]** and **[Kimono from second mistral empire]** are most popular clothing among [Perfume succubus] tribal members (particularly among the those who have the lower tribal status), though they tends to wear said introduced clothing under their original tribal clothing as jacket initially, rather than wearing said introduced clothing (mostly for the kimono) in complete form which happen in later on. In additional, several hairstyles from both of said empires are introduced into their tribes as well, especially **[double looped buns from first mistral empire]** and **[yoko-hyogo from second mistral empire]** are most popular clothing among [Perfume succubus] tribal members
Within the Four underworld families' Western clan, there are certain amount of [Perfume Succubus] tribal members wearing Ninja-like/style attire that is claimed by them as allowing to have easier and better maneuverability and flexibility during the operation (asides from being looking cool!).
In terms of toolmaking materials, aside from natural materials such as stones, animal bones, animal teeth, (highly rare be used and only used on minor things like arrowhead), wood/bamboo, animal skins and hides, goat-wool, plant-fibers, dust crystals, and some earth substances including dirt and clay, they also utilize metals (including iron/steel as well as copper) from their own blacksmithing productions that are so well-produced enough to be applied on their daily life.
In terms of their usual go-to weaponry, aside from knifes and daggers, they also use edged weapons like short swords including machete and short axe/sickle, blunt weapons like short mace and club, polearms(like long staff and spear) for melee fight, and use bow and arrows, crossbow and bolts along with later-introduced explosive weapons (like primitive-style dust-crystal-infused hand grenades) and firearms (both pistol and long gun type firearms (e.g. carbine and sniper rifle) as being most popular among the [Perfume succubus] tribes) for long range combat. Besides, they also use a series of throwing weapons (throwing knifes, throwing axes and throwing spears) as well as hidden weapons (like blowgun, throwing darts and shuriken).
(footnote: later-introduced explosive weapons and firearms are introduced from trading sources usually, especially from first and second mistral empire period.)
In terms of religion, they generally view the world as "the world not just born from manifestation of all surrounding scents and clouds and mists in a great variety of colors and smells, but also the world coexist with these numerous amounts of scents and clouds (each has own colors and smells in a great variation as well as anyone and anything could gain these supernatural-like power from said scents and clouds own via sniffing/contacting on those scents and clouds) along with other mythical beings". And according to their tribal foundation myth, long time ago in ancient time, there were a certain tribe where have both men and women at equal number on each other. One day, numerous of evil and violent spirits/beings invaded the said tribe and then took out the life of all men while severely wounded the body of all women at the life-threating level, after than a said tribe’s certain warrior girl makes the bond with certain light-purple cloud-shaped spirit (which is later referred as “protective/guardian cloud-spirit” by the [Perfume Succubus] tribal members) and combined with said spirit eternally under the guidance of their tribe’s certain goddess. After defeating as well as repelling all evil and violent spirits who invade her tribe, she not only helped and healed all women within her tribe up, but also transfered said new form of divine power to every single women within her tribe via the method similar to "scent-gathering", so that they become first generations of [Perfume Succubus] tribe. In terms of their pantheon structure, all, if almost, deities they worshiped are goddess, and they view the goddess called “grand-high mother” as central main deity among their pantheon, and though there are other goddesses among their pantheon as well, they view these other goddesses as “the extensional selves spitted from “grand-high mother”” rather than view those as individual deities. About the details on their own individual goddesses, there are included "grand-high mother" (in form as having-floor-length-hair youthful woman whose domain are community, tribal settlement, collaboration, bonding and fertility, who is originally as the certain minor goddess of one of certain their long-forgotten ancestral tribe, and after becoming the central main deity, she uses pieces of her own body to “born” other goddesses),"purple-cloud-surrounding warrioress" (in form as having-multiple-purple-clouds-surrounding-her-own-body full-of-arms shorthair teenage-aged girl whose domain are protection, war, hunting, bonding and guardianship on female, who is not only the one who from mere mortal to be divine deity after combining with “protective/guardian cloud-spirit” eternally as the foundation myth said, as well as the only one who is not “born” from "grand-high mother" herself (yet she still has good relationship with other goddesses among the pantheon)),"green-cape mother" (in form as green-cape-wearing having-waist-length-hair tall adult woman whose domain are water, weather, wilderness, plant(including crop), animal (including livestock), harvest and health),"wave-riding woman" (in form as riding-on-wave naked having-long-and-wave-like-hair brown-skin woman whose domain are sea, aquatic life, fishing and aquaculture, seafood and vesselbuilding),"house-embracing mother" (in form as rounded-bodyshape adult woman with having a pair of circular-shape strong-looking arms that looks like “hugging something” whose domain are household, family, child/younger-caring, cooking, food, labor work and house-safekeeping)," reading scented-girl " (in form as hooded cape-wearing young girl who is in posture of reading booking/rolling scroll-like object whose domain are knowledge, medicine, wisdom, memory, and education)," multicolored-cape woman " (in form as multicolored-cape-wearing chest-length-hair woman whose domain are color dye, weaving, clothing, trading and wealth)," darkskin-on-fire crafteress " (in form as fire-surrounding-on-full-body tied-up-hair brown-skin teenage-aged girl who is in posture of [holding a small hammer on her right hand while holding a punch of plant-like fibers on her left hand] whose domain are crafting, blacksmithing, house building, and construction)," multicolored-skin dancing girl " (in form as naked hip-length-hair multicolored-skin teenage-aged girl who is in posture of look like[always dancing while always smiling joyfully] whose domain are healing, spiritism, music, dancing, blessing and celebration), and " the big-stomached " (in form as naked intersexual adult [half-man-bodypart on the left side while half-woman-bodypart on the right side] with the huge stomach whose domain are love, marriage, childbirth, gender and sexuality). (footnote: aside the "grand-high mother" they mainly worship, the most worshipping popularity on the particular deity/goddess among said deities could be varied differently among from tribe to tribe among the [Perfume succubus] Grimm-folk, for example the north-living tribe view "green-cape mother" as the one of their most worshipping deities while another inland-coast-living one view "wave-riding woman" as the one of their most worshipping deities) And these above-mentioned goddesses/deities are usually crafted in form of image on fiber-made paper and wall-painting (e.g. on cavewall surface) for worshipping purpose. When certain [Perfume succubus] tribal member visits the temple/altar of a certain specific deity for certain specific matters, they usually ignite the fragranced candle firstly, and then go to temple/altar of a certain specific deity (e.g. go to " multicolored-cape woman " if wanting to have more wealth, or go to " the big-stomached " if wanting to have the childbirth), and then place the ignited fragranced candle on the table within the temple of a certain specific deity or on the altar of a certain specific deity, and then join both palms slightly while pray quietly about the certain specific matters.
In terms of festivals, despite having some number of festivals they held, there are following few important festivals that most of [Perfume succubus] tribal members go to, for example
"spring-welcoming festival" hold at between two months of start of the new year when everyone will exchange the gift, along with the dancing and musical performances as well as grand feast, and then "thousands-life festival" hold at around near the midsummer when everyone will wear animal-themed colored paper-made mask/headdress (as they do not birthed with any Faunus' traits, especially in scenario of being birthed under the union with [Perfume succubus] Grimm-folk and Faunus) along with multi-colored face painting as the remind of thankfulness for these natural resource the nature provide (as well as the loss of the Faunus female's lives during several severe historical atrocities) as well as grand feast, and then "autumn-harvesting festival" holding at around mid-autumn when everyone will gather for not only making preservative food for upcoming winter, but also make the dumplings for the upcoming dumpling hotpot as well as grilling gathering feast within their own tribe, and lastly "warmed-scent festival" hold at around mid-and-end winter when everyone will come back to their home for the gathering dinner, exchange the gifts along with certain customs like "scent-gathering".
In terms of mythological fictional creatures within their oral tribal folklores, despite having numerous amounts of mythological fictional creatures within their oral tribal folklores, there are some of fictional creatures which are most widespread among [Perfume succubus] tribal members: {scented-cloud-spirit}[in appearance of sentient cloud-shaped beings which each have own different color among, they are fundamentally good being and use the scents as their own food source, they usually gather around anywhere where have huge scents while sometimes will help to protect the tribal members from any evil and violent spirits/beings], {hidden-shadow vampire}[shadowy humanoid figure with a pair of large canine-teeth who has the ability of fusing into the shadow with whole body for stealth purpose to sneaking and tracking any found-able target, and then once finding the target (especially female ones), it will "jump out" from the shadow and then use its large canine-teeth to bite on said target's neck while sucking said target's own blood to the point of all blood being dry up (fun fact: it hate the smell of ginger and warm)], and lastly {hidebehinding troll}[group-living giant-size hairy cannibalistic (only on female) humanoid figure with the horizontal deep-and-spliced-open, having-the-large-ragged-sliced-tear-from-across-the-lips-all-the-way-to-the-ear-on-the-both-sides-of-the-face exposing-full-of-sharp-teeth mouth (some description said some individual also has multiple arms or multiple very long grappling tongues) who are really good at hiding behind any tree/bamboo while ensuring the target not look back for stealth purpose to sneaking and staying closer to any found-able target, and then once getting near the target at very close distance, they will use their giant hands to garb the target and then stuff the target into the large bag (so big that it can contain up to several thousands of people) they always carrying. Once they back to their certain well-hidden home (e.g. certain hidden cave), they will eat all the targets alive (whether eating raw or otherwise) (fun fact: it hate the smell of flowery scents)].
