 Ikunkuma are scavengers at heart, and rarely pass up the opportunity to pick up things that others have discarded that might be valuable or useful later. Their culture is driven towards extreme conservation of resources, and anything that they see with the potential to be reused or re-purposed has value in their eyes. They are not as a rule dirty or unclean, but see no reason not to make use of things that are lightly damaged, or try to fix things that are broken. Many “trash puppies” feel drawn to the [[:​professional_skills#​Engineer]] profession as a way of prolonging the life of things or using broken parts to repair or improve other devices. Ikunkuma society is quite communal and cooperative - they form close bonds with those they see as family, and consider group resources to be shared between everyone for the good of the group. Ikunkuma are scavengers at heart, and rarely pass up the opportunity to pick up things that others have discarded that might be valuable or useful later.

-Ikunkuma ​ tend to take pleasure in their senses and in the physicality of things – the smells of a cooked meal, the feeling of a well-made item. They like to touch objects and surfaces and get a feel of things with their fingers (although remember to keep the [[:safety_conduct#​Conduct]] rules in mind when interacting with other characters).+Ikunkuma ​ tend to take pleasure in their senses and in the physicality of things – the smells of a cooked meal, the feeling of a well-made item.

 Ikunkuma tend to dress in a manner similar to fashionable Free Union humans, in an attempt to fit in and participate in Free Union culture to a greater degree. However, their stylistic sensibilities seem to clash with their tendency to gather and hoard, and they often end up looking mismatched and scruffy. They consider it wasteful that lightly damaged or mismatched items are disdained by fashionable members of other species, and often end up wearing odd shoes or things with holes in or worn the wrong way around. Regardless of what they end up wearing, Ikunkuma garb always incorporates large pockets, perfect for stuffing with all manner of trinkets and baubles. Ikunkuma tend to dress in a manner similar to fashionable Free Union humans, in an attempt to fit in and participate in Free Union culture to a greater degree.
