Archaeloids
consider it rude for others to be able to see what you're eating.
Granted, they have many long tentacles covering their mouths while
they are chewing on something, but humans that chew with their mouths
open and Omuls that, well, can't exactly hide the food floating in
their cytoplasm are generally considered to be without manners by
Archaeloid standards. Archaeloids are also quite formal in social
situations, greeting each-other with slow bows and approaching with
measured steps. This often leads to the misconception that they are
slow-moving creatures (even though they are a little slower than some
of the other races!) Archaeloids consider fast, casual movements as
disrespectful and suggestive of impatience. Another cultural
consideration to keep in mind is that colors mean a great deal to
Archaeloids, which use the shifting coloration of their skin to
communicate emotion. Because red is associated with rage and anger,
it is a very bad idea to wear the color red to any event with
Archaeloids present. Sending red roses—considered as “flowers of
death”--will greatly alarm and offend Archaeloids for the perceived
death threat and Erwani for the morbid act of sending a butchered
corpse as a gift.
