## Culture of Vustrilles

The Vrust are scattered across the surface of their planet, and most communities are very small, usually never more than a few hundred people at most. The majority of the population live relaxed lives: they are dependent upon farmers, but the orchards are so plentiful that they rarely need to work too hard to eke out a living. Most communities are run by a small council of elders. The planet is not heavily mechanized.
