* AlternativeAnimalAffection: Pedes will display their affection by patting you with their antennae; the proper way to return the gesture is with quick, light strokes which begin at the center of their body and quickly sweep off the sides. Headbutting is generally considered rude.

The world is full of [[MouseWorld tiny elves]] which [[HorseOfADifferentColor ride the aforementioned 'pedes]], short for either centipede or millipede.



BigCreepyCrawlies: Due to the MouseWorld setting, millipedes and centipedes are enormous next to the elfin inhabitants. They are, however, even large by normal standards, being about 8-10" long.
MouseWorld
SpellMyNameWithAnS: The work is titled '''''Pedes!!''''', bold and italic, with two exclamation points. No exceptions. When speaking of it aloud, it is appropriate, but not required, to draw out the word, as in "'''''Peeeeeeeeeeedes!!'''''" Think of the way a ToughGuy would perform the EekAMouse scream about multilegged critters.

* CulturalPosturing: Centipede-riders and millipede-riders generally hate each other and each considers itself superior to the other. Millipede-riders are vegetarians and treat their mounts as complete equals, allowing them in their homes; centipede-riders believe this makes them complete sissies (never mind why neither has ever successfully invaded the other). Centipede-riders have a taste for meat and practice a form of "food burial" in which a centipede will eat its fallen master or vice versa, seeing earth burial as a way of flinging dirt in the face of the dead; while true cannibalism is as abhorrent to them as any other, don't try explaining that fact to a millipede-rider.
* FantasticSlurs: Young millipede-riders are nicknamed "Yellowlegs" (equivalent to the cowboy term greenhorn) because, when agitated, millipedes produce a stinky yellow substance that stains anything touching it. Centipede-riders have picked up on this as a term for ''all'' millipede-riders.
* EnemyOfMyEnemy: [[spoiler:They eventually must band together to fight a group of elves who ride velvet worms.]]
* HorseOfADifferentColor: with more legs than you'd ever be able to put shoes on.

When speaking of it aloud, it is appropriate, but not required, to draw out the word, as in "'''''Peeeeeeeeeeedes!!'''''" Think of a cross between a LeroyJenkins battle cry and the way a ToughGuy would perform the EekAMouse scream about multilegged critters.

Added DiffLines:

'''''Pedes!!''''' is a...something. The author hasn't decided yet - novella? Web comic? Comic book? At the moment, it is just a world waiting to be inhabited by characters. That's right, it doesn't even have ''characters'' yet, just a title and a world state.
