CONTENT INFORMATION
REFINING MANNERS: Traditional manners on Atrisia are important, always remove your shoes or boots and wear socks to not dirty the floors. Always wear a kimono that covers ankles and wrists. A sash that will keep it closed. Serving guests who have come into your house is important but a person can be refused. They can be denied entry without it being rude if their character is viewed as questionable and the person doing it will save plenty of face. It is only when they are welcomed and given food and drink that they are under the lord of the houses protection. They will not be attacked unless they outright become hostile.

ARTWORK: Standards of Atrisian beauty, deep colorful eyes of a more exotic solid color (jades, golden amber, icy blues) with long hair as black as oil, high cheek bones and rounded or sharp features. Lithe bodies with compacted figures, full lips ad dainty feet or hands. Kimono's that are designed eith intricate patterns and designs in complimenting colors.

BEAUTY STANDARDS: Pale or golden skin with penciled on eyebrows and lipstick. Intricate hair styles that use small gemstones woven ino the strands, small bells and subtle additions that can draw attention without being distracting. Tattoos are to be concealed and scars covered, piercings much the same as they can be there but hidden behind a layer of material.

SPEECH: Overly verbose with compliments, flattery and flirtations that are more commonplace then a part of courting. Looks are meant to be seen and it is considered rude to not acknowledge it when work and effort has gone into.

POEMS: Something important that is given from the lowest farmer to the highest lord. The skill that goes into crafting, forming and thinking about them. It is considered a common feature of young lovers and a way to honor long time loves.

CLOTHING: Richly colorful with differing materials depending on the climate of the region from tufts of fur lining for the polar areas to the more shimmersilk style that is light and airy for the heat of the deserts or the tropical regions. Rare materials and unique styles are favored with crafting being taught to the men and women so they can make their own clothing.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Created as a travelers guide to Atrisia, Io has been working to create a cultural guide to Atrisia to explain the people, the locations and the cultural differences on the world between many fo the things. In this case the ancient art which came about as Atrisia entered a more indulgent era of its life. Instead of reinventing and making advances they worked to refine to the point of obsession. Beauty, artwork, poems and songs. If it could be made beautiful or refined then they sought to improve upon it.
