Unfortunately I won`t be able to finish before the deadline :(
(Carnival in Brazil took all my time haha)
Well, that was my concept:

These are women from the Kayan tradition, in Northern Thailand. They are also known as giraffe women, due to the neckrings they carry since their childhood, that seem to make their necks longer.

I imagined a tribe of women that would be trained in hunting since they were little girls. The tribe would have as main enemy a specie of mutant snake able to do vorpal attacks, so the neckrings would serve as a protection. As they kill enemies, they would substitute the original rings for spines, as a strategy to scare the enemies. That would be also a sign of status inside the tribe.
Good job everybody!
