Vexx have a societal aversion to paying for something they can do themselves and don’t understand the need for fobbish luxury items. Communal resources are rare and only through the use of a barter system are services exchanged.

A family’s land may have a number of individual small dwellings, fields, and other individual amenities. Even children within a family unit an individual are expected to fend for themselves, though they are guided by their parents when they are young. It is believed that only after one has their own affairs in order can they benefit the society at large. They need to be able to provide food for themselves, build a house, defend themselves, and even provide basic medical aid for themselves. Each vexx is expected to be able to do everything required to be able to survive on their own.

Culturally, this hyper-focus on being ruggedly self-reliant (as a community, as an individual, etc) has formed the vexx into a culture where you could break it apart and it would still function. Though they are often hired as mercenaries, they have more of an interest in their own self-sufficiency. At first glance vexx are creatures made for war, but they have little appetite for it. Common hair colors range from dark blue to midnight black, and some even have a dusky grey hair. They have very long, erudite features and short, easily maintained hair. The males tend to be broader of chest, while females tend to be much thinner but slightly taller. Despite standing on their hands, they are still a head taller than most humans and their sheer physicality is impressive.

VEXX ART SUPPLIES SKIN
This armored skin is naturally healing, produced naturally, and is somewhat flexible due to it being so thin. The metal skin is actually a series of paper-thin, sleek, smooth, form-fitting, interlocking bands with multiple layers. Vexx are muscular humanoids with iron skin who walk on their strong arms and manipulate the world around them with their specially adapted, dexterous, feet.
