Next Up Is The Grasslands! Grassland Social Palindromes Aren't Actually Quite Common Because The Grasslands

Next up is the grasslands! Grassland social palindromes aren't actually quite common because the grasslands are more frequently populated by drifters. However when they leave to forage elsewhere, these guys always stick around in their home. Grassland socials live in the various grasslands, obviously, and are very welcoming to migrating palindromes who are crossing the continent.

Grassland palindromes are generally a light blue, green or mint and are covered in white markings. They're about average sized, and they aren't seen turning asymmetrical as often as other palindromes so their top legs don't typically curve inwards. There's a lot of variance inside the grasslands ecotype, including those with stripes instead of spots on the west grasslands, those with a cooler base tone up north, or those with dark colorpoints under the spots. Fun fact! Most drifter palindromes have grassland ancestry.

Grassland fashion is rather simple, including fitted belts, blankets and "saddles" which are designed to stay on the body when flipping. Although they aren't as dedicated to staying equilateral like drifters are, it's still of moderate importance to be able to switch sides so they make sure their clothes won't fall off. Their signature dye is yellow, from earth pigments and the "grass" that lives in their biome.

Their architecture is rather simple, made of little mounds which represent their territory. Each settlement is built near and dedicated to a single tent. These guys have a lot of importance and reverence for tents in their culture, and they don't build their mounds too high so that they can always see their "mascot" tent and so that they don't build tall objects which will disrupt the winds of the grasslands.

They have more colors in their language than the saltpan palindromes covered in the previous post. They have colors for darkness (any dark color), light (white, pale yellow or pink), people (mint), quiet leaves (yellow), loud leaves (cyan to blue), soil (grey or brown) and tents (cooler blue). Their name tones use a high note for a red patch, a midtone note for a blank patch and a low note for a green patch.

I was going to include archipelago palindromes here too but I'm going to include them in their own post.
