Marimism

This page addresses information about Marimbo, his religion, and his followers as it applies to World 42 roleplaying. Any valuable contributors are welcome to add, especially as new content comes out in-game.

Marimbo
Marimbo, pronounced Ma-reem-boe, is the ancient patron god of monkeys. He is worshipped almost exclusively on the Ape Atoll and is depicted as a giant gorilla. He is aligned with enlightenment. His symbol is a triangle which points downward, with a vertical spike hanging from the bottom point.

Brief History
At some point, Marimbo went to the Ape Atoll in search of followers. There he found monkeys; he may or may not have granted them their intelligence. Marimbo decided to stay on Ape Atoll, and the monkeys there still worship him to this day. The town Marim is named after him.

The Religion
Marimbo and his religion seem to have the interests of monkeys in mind. It celebrates ape and monkeykind as a grand race, often also discriminating against other races for various reasons, including humans, gnomes, and any other race that might be able to overpower and imprison monkeys.

Followers and Marimist Creatures

 * Many Monkeys
 * Citizens of Marim
 * Many Karamjan monkeys
 * Possibly Ardougne Zoo monkeys

Common Mistakes
This category addresses traits that players, often new ones, give their Marimist characters but that aren't actually seen in Marimists on Gielenor. That is, a character may have these traits, but it would not be expressly due to the teachings of Marimbo's religion.
 * Nothing significant is actually, concretely known about Marimbo's teachings.
 * Without a magical ability to speak to monkeys or extensive research of the Ape Atoll, the likelihood that any non-ape/monkey creature would know of Marimbo is low.
