I'm not quite happy with this fantasy race (kanka.io)

I feel like maybe these people are lacking in cultural and interpersonal depth. I set out to play with certain tropes in ways that amuse me (and I know I got that right), but as a culture they seem rather plain.

That MIB parallel makes me think of a religious secret society, keeping the secrets of the surface from the regular pukafolk, and keeping the surface from interacting too much with their underground. Probably more heavily leaning toward repressing interest in going to the surface via fear and such.

You might have done me a huge favor. I was assuming the MIBs would be above grounders suppressing Pukalore, but how much cooler is it if Puka have a sect of MIB-alikes who suppress ABOVE GROUNDER LORE gaaaaasp that's why they always snoop around creeping people out aaaaa hahaha that's amazing
