===Hive Society=== Underhivers are generally considered to be criminals or worse among their peers above, while the underhivers view those above them with anywhere from bitter contempt or childlike awe. Underhivers are very communal, if territorial, with familial units taking priority. These units may consist of literal blood relatives but more often extend to neighboring families and local merchants. This isn't necessarily due to a natural empathy for neighbors, however, as an individual frequently finds it within their best interests to work with the oft dozens of people they directly cohabitate with. As you travel upwards, however, these familial units begin to transition solely to blood ties. Name and familial standing become much more important among mid-hivers as they find themselves true gainful employment as merchants in the countless upper-hive stalls or working in facilities that require more skilled labor. The mid-hivers are mostly a transitional culture consisting of those nobles who find themselves unable or unwilling compete for planetary governance, as well as underhivers who have managed to acquire enough resources to begin (somewhat) legitimate business. In this transition, they find themselves much more desperately craving the relative opulence of upper-hive than underhivers. Due to this, competition for jobs and prestige is fierce and inter-familial conflict is common. The upper-hivers regard this burgeoning new class of citizen as either a convenient new type of underhiver to exploit, or as an oncoming threat to their own positions of power. Underhivers often consider the life of a mid-hiver to be either hopelessly inaccessible or as an ideal to one day reach through pillage and guile. Almost at the very bottom of hive Hua Yuan, is place that connects to almost the entire hive a place where no neon lights shine, that location is, the underground landfill. Here mutants, vermin and other types of outcast reside. But there is a small group that sticks out from among the vile masses and that is "the scrappers". No one but themselves know what they are called. So others have given that name due to their habit of looking through the garbage that is thrown down. They do this in order to find useful parts for various things. But mainly in order to build simple auto weapons that they sell to minor clans and gangs in the underhive. The scrappers often vary in appearance, and behaviour, but they can always be idenetified as to having pale skin and some type of welding goggles fused to their eyes. How they got here or who they are is a mystery.
