Goebies

This page serves as a source of information about goebies as it is applicable to World 42 roleplaying characters. Everyone is invited to add to this information.

Chantil
The goebies originally lived on the planet of Chantil. For reasons unknown, the anima of Chantil began to leak. The goebies realized that their world was dying so they constructed temples and bargained with the native spirits. The temples were built where Chantil's anima mundi leaked. With their temples, the goebies also constructed vents which helped distribute the anima across the planet. The spirit guardians of Chantil roamed the planet up until they reach one of the temples. There, they met the end of their cycle and returned the anima to its source. At some point, the boar goddess Tuska arrived on Chantil. Tuska traveled to the great temples and devoured Chantil's anima. The planet then became known as Mazcab

Mazcab
Tuska then shook the airut off of her hide and left Mazcab. The airut terrorized the goebies, driving them from their homes and enslaving them. One particular airut known as the Shaman began spreading his corrupting magic throughout the lands. The water spirit Yakamaru fell prey to his magic and is now used a a weapon for the airut. The airut known as the Beastmaster took over the last remaining temple of Mazcab. Currently, there are two named settlements on Mazcab; Otot and Kanatah. The settlements and the surrounding areas are the only known places on Mazcab that have sufficient anima to sustain life. This is due to the anima vents their ancestors have constructed.The rest of the planet is covered in deserts and oceans.

General Information

 * Acca is a leader of a Goebie community. The title is bestowed upon the eldest goebie, but this is not always the case.
 * According to Acca Otot, the settlement of Otot is a great city. But it is nothing more than a collection of tents.


 * The pebbles on a goebie's back is their equivalent of hair.
 * Goebies do not name the pebbles on their back.


 * The lungs of a goebie are located in the rock-like formations on their backs.
 * As the rock formation continues to grow, the goebie is eventually crushed to death.
 * Because of this, goebies do not die of old age.
 * Attempting to relieve the weight of the rock formation by mining it will end up killing the goebie instead.

Naming Conventions
Before the portal on Tuska's back opened to Mazcab, the idea of names were foreign to goebies. It is likely that goebies distinguished one another with titles, like the Gorajo race. The leaders of Otot and Kanatah are referred to as "Acca." Many goebies now have names that would be common to see in Gielinor.

Some of these names include; Alexander, Billy, Bruce, Christopher, Danny, Kevin, Kyle, Joel, Liam, Max, Paul, Pablo, Percival, Peter, Susan, Toby, Terrance, Steve, Wayne.

Debated Lore

 * Goebies possess Nemi poison, which seemingly makes an airut sick. It is unknown if it effects other races.
 * Goebies are described as a genderless race, but some goebies are referred to as mother and father.

Common Mistakes

 * It would be uncommon to see a goebie possess the ancient secrets of their ancestors.

Other Information

 * The various symbols located around Mazcab seem to be based off of those seen in real world Mayan culture.
