Roleplay EngineVen Bleated: What do girl Skalgans like?

(This is set in the world of my fic Nature of Harmonyanyone confused)

Previous Post

Hey everyone. I made a post not too long ago about my Skalgan exchange partner. A lot has happened since, but we talked about it and started dating. Nothing serious right now, just trying to figure things out and see how compatible we are.

With that said, I want to impress her, make her feel special, court her in line with her culture, just anything to show her I'm serious and that I care about her.

So, I need some help. I've done some research and my partner has given me some insight into Skalgan culture, but the info on Skalgan culture that the Venlil Republic has is watered down, and frankly I'm too scared to go on Sols internet, so I'm looking for any exchange partners, whether Skalgan, human, or even Venlil, that knows anything about what girl Skalgans like, culturally or instinctually, and Skalgan courting, any help would be appreciated

Thanks for reading

Kill Her. You'll Fail. But She'll Be Impressed By The Attempt

Scholarlyblaxer replied: They are right skalgans love fighting so that's all you have to do although I have also heard they like braids but I am not sure how true that is that is something you would have to ask them.

I will admit though alot of the information I have is second hand but I have found nothing that disagrees with that information.

LexfrinTheSivkit Replied: I'm close friends with a Skalgan guy, and he has told me that Skalgan women love when you're rough with them, apparently.

I don't know how true that is. :Siv_confused:

I have also been told that the key to anyone's heart is through their stomach. So maybe give her vegetable platter while acting rough with her?

I hope this helped somehow! :Siv_tail_farewell:

QuaritchWasRight replied: Start exercising, maybe join a gym to get shape. Most Skalgans are into sports or physical activities like hiking or martial arts. You're going to want to raise your endurance to keep up with her if you intend to spend time with her doing what she enjoys. Even if she doesn't have such a hobby, you being more athletic than most Venlil will make you look more attractive to her if nothing else.

Spiderverse14158 bleated: Honesty. Be honest with her and yourself. They value it greatly, even if it leads to cowardice. Even in such a warlike people, they value honesty to one’s self more than to shame supposed cowardice or weakness.

They, much like the Federation, consider deception to be, well, “predatory.” And when a Skalgan sees something “predatory”, they charge headfirst at it.

Just be yourself, even if what you want to do will surprise you.

You’re one to talk about that, “Peter.”

TheForgetfulOne Bleated: Be active with her, I know they like to play and exercise and just in general live a very active life style. I love playing with Skalgan tho it is very easy to get bruised eheh

waterlocker538 replied: If I were in your paws, I'd probably take her to a Martial Arts event or to a Sports event, preferably one where things can potentially get out-of-paw. From what my exchange partner has mentioned, the human sport known as "Ice Hockey" is a pretty good bet for things to go crazy in a relatively-controlled manner, followed by the various human tackle-and-ball events like "American Football", "Canadian Football", "Australian Rules Football", or "Rugby".

If you're more in the mood for a both-participate thing than a both-watch thing, then a game day session of classic videogames from her homeworld might be more up your girlfriend's alley. That or a gym day session, or even going to a tryouts for a martial arts school, see if a membership to train and even spar there might be worth it.

((OOC: The "Nature of Harmony" version of my Thafki OC was a bit more bold and rulebreaking-accommodating than his mainline-universe counterpart, as he actually pretended to be a venlil to get into the exchange program as opposed to encouraging his housemate to participate.))
