Many of the Togmu are chefs, at the most common inns and taverns and in some of the finest, Togmu chefs are unparalleled. Given the likelihood of poisoning, some of the most important people in Bhakashal have a Togmu as a personal chef.
Many are also tailors, and in a city such as Bhakashal, where elaborate and outre dress is a signifier of power, they have the ears of the mighty. The Togmu community thus has connections to people in power, and maintain a network of communication...
... between them that is very efficient. Harm to any member of the Togmu community will not long remain a secret. Togmu warlocks, though comparatively rare, have the most vivid and striking clothing.

They match clothing color with their various skin colors, using the clothing to create bold contrasts and compliments. They also have a fondness for rings for fingers and toes (due to the webbing, rings fit near the end of fingers).
