Silirw

The term refers to both Cyrals and Enials together.
There are 8 main regions of Uis (essentially continents): Epicentral, Upleft, Left, Opposite, Upright, Downright, Farleft, and Farright. Each region has its associated traits (Enials with Opposite region lineage, for example, have ridgeflaps that protrude sideways). There are areas in some regions for people who are mentally unfit in specific ways to live in, and anyone born there gets a special prefix added to their last name (but these are not their own regions and have no associated physical traits).
A note about the things below that have their flavours described: while they aren't totally disagreeable to a human palate (though peoples' tastes differ)...they may or may not be toxic for humans to consume.

Food

Having had millenia and help from civilisations with more advanced technology than Uis', they create their food to be easy for their bodies to process, with a minumum of waste. Their digestive systems are quite robust, and can use a fair variety of substances for energy, respirationlike processes, and building tissue. Naturally, there are some things that work better for Enials than Cyrals and vice-versa, but they can generally eat all of the same things. Also, due to the structure of their mouths, some things that are able to be digested are not convenient to eat. For example: Enials invented soup, which they can consume easily, but Cyrals don't really have lips and it is more difficult for them.

Cyrals

Left: a male by Toastline. Right: a female by Captain Slowpoke. (Both are Epicentral)

[2010-03-20 02:23:00] <Toastline> Cyral blood is more goopy and not sweet. It goes well with their meat
[2010-03-20 02:23:18] <Rosque> D:
[2010-03-20 02:23:41] <Brom> tooooooast
[2010-03-20 02:23:43] <Brom> tooooooooooooooast
[2010-03-20 02:23:45] <Toastline> Yeah?
[2010-03-20 02:23:50] <Brom> what about their ejaculate
[2010-03-20 02:23:59] <Toastline> Gimme a sec
[2010-03-20 02:24:07] * Brom waits impatiently
[2010-03-20 02:24:10] <Toastline> I have some here (no just kidding)
[2010-03-20 02:24:35] <Toastline> I have it in my head but putting it in words it hard
[2010-03-20 02:24:37] <Rosque> Didn't you draw a bunch of cyrals autofellating
[2010-03-20 02:24:52] <Toastline> Yes, and I gave my justification
[2010-03-20 02:25:25] <Toastline> Also it's highly unusual for a Cyral to actually be UNABLE to bend enough for that
[2010-03-20 02:26:20] <Toastline> It's a little bit like bread
[2010-03-20 02:26:30] <Toastline> to answer your question, Brom
[2010-03-20 02:26:33] <Brom> I see
[2010-03-20 02:26:43] <Toastline> wait you meant ale, right
[2010-03-20 02:26:44] * Brom pulls out his little black notebook and a pencil
[2010-03-20 02:26:45] <Toastline> *male
[2010-03-20 02:26:48] * Brom takes it down
[2010-03-20 02:27:05] <Toastline> nice phrasing
[2010-03-20 02:27:36] <Toastline> 'cause the females' taste different
[2010-03-20 02:28:05] <Rosque> What do the females taste like
[2010-03-20 02:28:10] <Toastline> In general I don't think the females taste as good but eh
[2010-03-20 02:28:14] <N|eyepatched> I feel like I stumbled into an awkward conversation
[2010-03-20 02:28:28] <Toastline> Sort of different chemical balances
[2010-03-20 02:29:06] <Rosque> We're talking about what cyral ejaculate tastes like
[2010-03-20 02:29:10] <Rosque> How could that possibly be awkward
[2010-03-20 02:29:33] <Rosque> Ah there it is http://www.tgchan.org/kusaba/quest/src/12667260107.png
[2010-03-20 02:29:53] <Toastline> Yes, there's the pixelated version :3c
[2010-03-20 02:31:03] <Toastline> the female gamete fluid tastes more like... soda water and something else... dish soap maybe?
[2010-03-20 02:31:12] <Rosque> o.o
[2010-03-20 02:31:12] <Toastline> I can't quite identify it.

(Thinking about it later, it's not dish soapy but I'm really drawing a blank here)

[2010-03-20 02:37:22] <Toastline> Cyral voices are [scratchier than human voices], since they don't make sounds the same way... but they can hit a wider range of notes
[2010-03-20 02:37:36] <Rosque> So THEY make good operatic divas
[2010-03-20 02:37:49] <Toastline> well they can't make a solid note very well
[2010-03-20 02:37:56] <Rosque> Ah
[2010-03-20 02:38:01] <Toastline> it would be all wobbly

Physiology

The veinous structure of a male is something like this.

Left: an hermaphrodite by Toastline. Right: a female by Captain Slowpoke.(Both are Epicentral)

The eye-markings of the different sexes.

[2010-03-20 02:21:25] <Toastline> Enial blood is slightly sweet and sort of gelatinous
[2010-03-20 02:31:19] <Rosque> What about [Enial ejaculatory fluids]
[2010-03-20 02:31:27] <Toastline> mmm
[2010-03-20 02:32:50] <Toastline> Female Enial gamete fluid has a sorta msg-taste to it
[2010-03-20 02:32:59] <Rosque> Savory
[2010-03-20 02:33:40] <Toastline> And the males' is somewhat similar but the females' is more... chemical-y
[2010-03-20 02:33:50] <Toastline> for lack of a better descriptor
[2010-03-20 02:34:26] <Toastline> I don't have any definitive "it taste like this" comparisons
[2010-03-20 02:34:37] <Rosque> That's fine
---
[2010-03-20 02:39:45] <Toastline> Enial voices are more rumbly and a bit less scratchy
