	Other than colour, Unathi may demonstrate their higher standing with jewelry and adornment, although the latter is most popular with Fruitful Lights fanatics, who tend to decorate their clothes with strung beads (made of various materials) and bonecrafts to enhance their abilities.

	In modern times, as the city states turned into major industrial centres producing goods for Moghedi and offworld markets, ~~Solarian~~ clothing became more prevalent, not only in practical sense, but as a cultural phenomenon as well. Human-inspired overalls, branded sportswear, printed shirts have been ubiquitous on Moghes for the last 30 years – more traditional outfits are now considered formal, worn by elders or the rich as a status symbol. Younger urban Unathi typically wear whatever is most comfortable to them, or whatever they can afford, although certain clans (such as the Kharza) employ a more standard uniform.

	The average male Unathi stands around seven and a half feet tall. Savanna Sinta are said to be the tallest among all Unathi. The [[Yeosa'Unathi]] and Salt Swamps clans tend to be somewhat shorter, while those of the Diamond Peaks tend to be of average height (albeit heavily built). Female Unathi of all backgrounds are usually about half of a foot shorter, and tend to have rounder features compared to their male counterparts. Both stand on digitigrade legs with clawed feet that make wearing standard shoes painful.		The average male Unathi stands around seven and a half feet tall.

	The Unathi are a carnivorous species. Their diet consists mostly of meat, athough they are able to consume plants and fruits. They barely get any nutrition from plants, which are mostly used as garnish or decoration. It is important to notice that some types of carbohydrates, especially monosaccharides may have an adverse effect on Unathi health and brain functions. Table sugar and fructose ~~sometimes~~ cause confusion and hallucinations in Unathi adults. Because they lack a second palate, Unathi cannot breathe while they are eating.		The Unathi are a carnivorous species. Their diet consists mostly of meat, athough they are able to consume plants and fruits. They barely get any nutrition from plants, which are mostly used as garnish or decoration. It is important to notice that some types of carbohydrates, especially monosaccharides may have an adverse effect on Unathi health and brain functions. Table sugar and fructose cause confusion and hallucinations in Unathi adults, and in high doses can cause lasting brain damage. Because they lack a second palate, Unathi cannot breathe while they are eating.

	Unathi require a regular food intake, owing to their well-developed brain and proactive lifestyle. Normally their needs are fairly modest, and they can go on for a while without food or drink - however, in a cooled environment of spacefaring vessels and stations the nutrients are consumed at an increased rate, especially if the unathi in question is cryogenically frozen. If a Unathi spaceman does not receive proper nourishment throughout the day, their internal organs begin to work themselves over and deconstruct.

	The contact with expansionist alien empires has prompted many new developments in Unathi society, and the military sphere is by no means an exception. Old clan militias, designed for ritual duels, occasional scraps and raids, were no longer sufficient – new formations were required, built on different principles. At the same time, space was an entirely new dimension crucial to the defense of Moghes, yet to be explored.

	Throughout the history of the species, faith has been a cornerstone of Unathi society, and a powerful force in any individual’s life. Like on Earth, religious beliefs on Moghes are quite diverse, and are often syncretic or even secular in practice. Surprisingly though, most if not all Unathi share common mythology – a meta-religion – in which the existing beliefs are grounded.

	According to Unathi worldview, the world is divided into two plains of reality, which roughly equate to human concepts of “Life” and “Afterlife”. The latter is home to potent entities – the spirits of those who once inhabited the realm of the living. Each spirit holds immense power over the world’s affairs; In order to ensure the normal functioning of natural and societal life, Unathi seek patronage with them, especially with those of their own kin, whom they call the '''Ancestors''' – the ranks of whom every Unathi is bound to join at some point.

	The '''Moghes Hegemony''' was created in 2239 by the ruling Kaahnepos of the major South Pole city-states, headed by Mumbak. Its formal purpose is to promote Unathi interests in trade and diplomacy with other species and create a better economy and network among Unathi living on Moghes. In practice, however, it is used to reinforce the role of the city-states in emerging off-world commerce and diplomacy, and to control the influx of foreign goods by the means of tariffs.

	While the Hegemony is often hailed as the first step towards making Moghes a powerhouse in the intergalactic community, those outside of Poles held less favourable views of the alliance. In '''2257''', '''Ssen-Uuma (Ssenuuma) Convent''' was established by a group of major highland Kaahnepos in a Diamond Peaks fortress of Ssen-Uuma, to act as a counterbalance to the growing Hegemony. Unlike their Polar counterparts, the Diamond Peak warbosses were more vary of developed alien races, considering those a possible threat to the established order, well-being and independence of Moghes. The rumours of Precursor artifacts being exchanged for energy weapons sparked an outrage among native population; in 2259, major riots occurred on the Southern Pole. In 2261, violence escalated further – the mercenary uprising in Nolesk, North Pole led to the capture of the city by Convent troops, which took over its first and only major spaceport.

	Though the inhabitants of Moghes are not as advanced as other known races, the technology they do have is by no means sub-par. Unathi are very intelligent in the fields of math and engineering. Reverse engineering is their main way of acquiring new tech, and it is a staple of their fields. Most of the city-states have reverse engineered numerous parts of Precursor and alien tech, and while some aspects of their everyday life may still be considered primitive by Humans and Skrell standards, they do possess know-how available only to them.

	The '''Unathi''' (U-nah-thee) are tall reptilian humanoids from the planet [[Moghes]]. Their scales are hard and plate-like, except for the softer ones that line the inside of their legs, armpits and groin. Unathi society is based on blood relations, and is split across regional, religious and, since recently, political lines. While the outsiders think of them as primitive brutes, the Unathi themselves take pride in honouring millennia-old traditions and upholding their faith, with the core ideas being Organic Growth and Continuity.
