Interesting, you seem to have every aspect of their culture planned out.
Something beyond the cast of my stories. The Madalox are one of the many races of Nis, though one of the most elusive besides the Gitanon. Besides their semblance to ferline (which they resent), they have a curious nature that imparts the same quotes to the slinky house-pets. When not wandering to and fro in whatever new fancy catches their eye, they tend to stay within Gardens, communities deep within forests and mountains that are shared by other Nisrian or Nuhuema races.
Over time their relationship with the neighbors has backslidden because of their choice of modernizing themselves with abodes similar to huema and other nuhuema that befriended those that took their lands. They believe learning their strengths while maintaining their bond to nature and All Spirit will allow them to prosper over them in time.
Interesting Facts:
The Madalox and Moon Clan used to be of the same tribe long ago.
Marriage to Madalox is called "unity". It is a large aspect of their social lives, as the betrothed are inseparable from that day forward, even following their partner to death in the extremist cases. They choose a mating site, mark it and before they die, return there. This means Madalox have no sense of burial rites except that if any come across a site, they leave a gift of some kind.
Despite being a peaceful people, Madalox train in the ways of war, something that is new to the Nuhuema but necessary to defend themselves and territory from further Huema expansion. Sharing the same hand-to-hand combat techniques as the Moon Clan, Madalox have furthered into weapon crafting; at this point it is limited to woodwork and iron crafting observed in the Huema provinces.
One reason they are elusive around Huema and even Ariem is that once they were hunted for their fur, which is likened to silk. The act of barbarism has left a mark on them, so they never linger long outside the Gardens and near considered espers with how quickly they appear and disappear.

Thanks~ I have a good deal about them thought out, if not for some minor details. Even though they are anthropormophic felines, I don't want them to be cliche; they actually have to live and function in their world and not just be "a cat-looking race".
