Akaname

Description
I am working on updating my old mod Monster Girl Encyclopedia Inspired Xenotypes by completing them as per the notes I had for them and by making them standalone. This does let me give the description the way I first intended without running out of character this time.

Akanames, also known as Filth Lickers or Dirth Lickers, are small, goblin-like yōkai which inhabit only the dirtiest homes and public baths. They are about the size of a child or a small adult. They have a long narrow prehensile sticky tongue to help them lick filth in narrow spaces. They are rather shy and rather not being seen.

People associate them with diseases and stink, but the fact is that this comes with the insalubrity that attracted them rather than themselves. This being said, they are not immune to diseases so they may spread them as a sick human does.

Genes:
-Small Frame (big and small) - They are smaller than humans.
-Strong Stomach (biotech) - They have less chance of getting food poisoned. (They evolved to eat filth!)
-Robust Digestion (biotech) - They gain more nutrition from raw food. (They don't cook the filth.)
-Filth Licker (this) - They gain nutrition from cleaning but will otherwise eat normal food when hungry. People find them disgusting.

Mod Compatibility
-Kijin Race 3.0
If you have Kijin Race 3.0, Akanames will have Kijin names. Otherwise they use the default one.
-Vanilla Ideology Expanded - Memes and Structures
Filth Lickers are immune to the "Did Dumb Labor" thought. Unfortunately, since it seems to be all handled by the XML, I am not sure how to let it for hauling, but not cleaning. I would need to find where in the code the XML is applied.

Update Ideas
-I think I am now tech savvy enough to remove Vanilla Expanded Framework as a prerequisite.
-Make so Akanames seek filth before food.
