PIGLIN BRAIDS

some of my personal lore/ideas for piglins!

hair is incredibly important in piglin culture, and you essentially display your life and who you are and your connections to others through your braids and jewelry

some more details/thoughts under the cut:

about a decade after philza and techno became friends, philza and techno were stuck in the nether when philza was injured (source of his bad leg) and they had to get help from a local bastion. they ended up befriending people and stayed there for about 150-200 years before they finally left, but every few hundred years they go back to spend a few decades there. they also go back specifically whenever philza and trixtin want to have children.

techno has 2 studs in his ear that philza doesn't--they're actually the earrings of his OLD/first sounder which doesn't exist anymore.

a lot of occupations are lumped together--philza's braid specifically means "builder", which refers to architects, artists, smiths, sculptors, and other professions of the same speed.

god/worship braids are meant to be knotted into your hair and stay there until your hair grows out and you have to redo the beads. each commonly recognized god has their own bead patterns, though eut'oob (i yoinked the name from a fic and i dont remember which one aaa if anyone in the notes remembers ill credit it) is a surface god and techno made up his own braid pattern for him because he isnt worshipped in the nether.

piglins have matesprit, moirail, and kismesis jewelry >:] iykyk. emduo are moirails cant change my mind. (techno had kismesis chains/jewelry for squid but that was a long time ago--squid died of old age)

word braiders are a highly valued part of piglin society. the reason it's a piercing and not a braid is because you have to be gifted a nose ring and be approved to get a piercing by another master word braider to show that you're qualified to call yourself one. you can't just put in a braid and call it a day.

wilbur grew up in a bastion till he was like 14/15 but he ended up chopping all of his hair off when he was a teen. techno is the one who gave him his nose ring when he was 17.

thats all i can think of have a nice day <3

I absolutely adore dogs but I think dog haters are (usually) more justified than cat haters wrt their reasoning

[amygdalae]

your average cat hater: I don't like how they r bitchy and ignore me/ won't let me manhandle them

your average dog hater: I have been mortally endangered by an ill-trained dog

I need all my mutuals to distinctly color-code themselves immediately. I am very stupid and I cannot keep track of irl people much less My Friend In My Phone I cannot continue to be embarrassed like this. My reputation is in shambles I am a terrible mutual. Someone should probably chase me around with a giant hammer.

of course the next question is whether I want to draw Stratt with a shirt on or not. Because that’s obviously the most relevant question rn

I dont know if tumblr has seen this behind the scenes photo, but everyone has to see it because its amazing

[starbluethunder]

Tumblr is so funny because you think all ur mutuals/sometimes rando people are Insanely Famous and Super Talented and Good and Better than You and they intimidate you 5million because of that. But they're just like. Some normal ass guy. Not even close to famous. And it turns out they've felt the same way about you the entire time. And you're also just some normal ass guy. Like what the fuck

[icara-mack]

This is false because all my mutuals are insanely famous super talented better than me at everything and im so intimidated and in awe 5million though

[moltengoldveins]
