===Culture===
===Culture===
Ethereals have a very open culture and society based upon freedom and curiosity. Also, they have an extremely unique genetic makeup allowing any two of the species to reproduce with one another, and having no gender. Ethereal culture puts an emphasis on what they call the “four stages”. These four stages are known as learning, curiosity, settlement, and the final travel. In the learning stage, ethereals are raised by their parents from birth to the age of fifteen and go to well funded public schools. They then enter what they call the curiosity stage in their lives. Depending on the ethereals interests many ethereals enter one of many fields from exploring space (or historically the deep cave systems or the ever-changing ice surface), to scientific endeavors. Exploration especially is highly treasured in ethereal society, with the drive of discovery making up a large part of their media and personal ethereals dreams. Additionally, as part of exploration, most Ethereals attempt to seek out and familiarize themselves with different cultures, priding themselves on adapting to the most foreign of cultures. Finally at around the age of forty Ethereals settle down into more permanent housing and jobs, and begin creating offspring. Commonly their partners are someone they met while exploring, and their offspring comes in groups of three to four. This stage lasts for nearly the rest of their lives. The final stage of their life is known as the final journey. After giving away most of their possessions, the ethereal goes off on one last exploration, which in the modern-day means far off stars. The ethereal does not expect to return but hopes to eventually die exploring. According to ethereal culture, the most honorable way to die.
