The games have not explored the final destinations of the products we've observed. If they had, we'd already know all about the Khanzumers.

In the Feeco Depot there a lot of stored barrels and boxes... is there a jib crane that puts them in the wagons of the train?

Bullet Magnet 05-23-2008 03:00 PM

That, or kintos.

OddYouko 05-23-2008 06:44 PM

In MO if you possess a Scrab can you still howl or do shred power? And the same goes for the Paramites..can you talk to other Paramites?

Bullet Magnet 05-23-2008 06:55 PM

No, no, no and no. Scrabs make a rasping honk of a noise, and chitter like monkeys. You can make them bite. Paramites snort like pigs, and can bite. The only interaction you can have with the other animals is biting one and immediately being torn to shreds by the rest.

The FeeCo Depot is a very big railway yard. It contains all the Magog Cartel's products till AE. Does it contain MO's products? I mean Splinterz Manufacturing's products and Vykker's products.

Nate 05-24-2008 05:46 AM

*sigh*

AIN, we know as much about that area as you do. We can only use logic and guesswork to respond to all your questions. Seeing as you are clearly quite imaginative enough to come up with them, perhaps you should trust your instincts about the answers rather than ask so many theoretical questions.

Bullet Magnet 05-24-2008 05:48 AM

Maaaaaybe. Though no one ever said it as the only major train station on Mudos.

Munch's Master 05-24-2008 09:05 AM

I'd imagine the Depot isn't the only storage facility the Cartel have. There'll be other areas, if not Feeco Depots then other places, that contain the products.

I still want to know more abou tKintos. All I know about them is a picture of them, and I think something about them being from the mountains but being used as load bearers due to great strength. Is any of that accurrate or has my memory gone hazy?

Mac Sirloin 05-24-2008 12:11 PM

The Fantastic and omnipotent date.
 
So where exactly does The Almighty Raisin appear first? Did he just pop up at the beginning of Munch's Oddysee or what?

Moosh da Outlaw 05-24-2008 12:16 PM

Well in MO, he doesn't really appear, he's just kind of... there.
Made it confusing cuz' I had no idea who the hell he was at first.

Mac Sirloin 05-24-2008 12:17 PM

Exactly.

they couldn't explain it? at all?

Moosh da Outlaw 05-24-2008 12:20 PM

Nope. I think they just expected us to go with it. Bad move on their part.
>:C

Xavier 05-24-2008 12:42 PM

Yeah, no introduction for him...

He wasn't supposed to be already introduced in MO, I guess they quickly needed him to keep the story together.

arkaznor 05-24-2008 05:30 PM

You would think that it wouldn't have been that difficult to have a seen where Abe explain who The Almighty Raisin was to Munch, but apparently it was seen as to difficult or unnecessary.

I pretty sure that no one knows the answer, but I'll ask anyway.

Glukkon's skin color range from blue to red, with their eye colors having a much greater range of colors. But are certain skin colors criticized or put into a different class, by the larger Glukkon population?

Mac Sirloin 05-24-2008 05:58 PM

Seems unlikely, ebing that they're all born of the same mother.

Nate 05-24-2008 07:54 PM

There's no introduction for Bigface or the Weirdos either. They're just there because the story needs them.

There were some interesting discussions about that a few years' back. Nothing conclusive was decided but some people suggested that the colours indicated different races or tribes of Glukkons, from different queens.

Mac Sirloin 05-24-2008 10:27 PM

Well, Bigface is more developed on, he's a Spiritual leader for the Monsaic Lines muds is what it seems like.

the Wierdos are Ghosts. No explanation needed.

Leto 05-25-2008 12:13 AM

and also, they're mudokons, which have been explained fully etc whereas Raisin is a huge amorphis blob who we have no idea why, when and how the fuck he came to be.

Bullet Magnet 05-25-2008 03:41 AM

After 6,000 years, he evolved from an elder tree. That was 8,400 years ago. Now he is a tree-stump after his branches fell off during metamorphosis. A sort of arboreal baldness, if you will.

Wil 05-25-2008 05:29 AM

He’s a great big amorphous thing living in a cave, that the Mudokons revere and trust entirely. That’s the role he fulfils, and it’s all implicit because he just gets on filling it. He’s an enigma to us. He’s an enigma to the Mudokons, too. And the Vykkers, but they’re more interested in cutting him up than listening to what he has to say. Just think of what they could learn from a fourteen‐​thousand‐​year‐​old about extending their own lifespans.

Munch's Master 05-25-2008 05:38 AM

I've often wondered who the Mudokons revere and consider their spiritual leader more; Bigface or The Raisin?
Abe's not seen as a leader, more of a talisman. So the question is, who is higher up the ladder- Raisin or Bigface?

Wil 05-25-2008 06:00 AM

A very good question. The Big Face is identified as the spiritual leader of the Mudokons (emphasis added), so I’m guessing he’s the top dog really. But the Raisin is more of a guide and advisor. I also don’t think he’s always been exclusive to the Mudokons.

totor 05-25-2008 08:05 AM

who is queen skillya?

MeechShrykull1029 05-25-2008 08:08 AM

She is the Slig Queen. Other than the Paramite Queen, this is the least known queen.

Why do you name the Paramite Queen? Do you know anything about her? Who told you about her? If she exists...

GlacierDragon 05-25-2008 08:53 AM

Yeh the Paramite Queen exists. http://oddworldlibrary.net/toe/FAQ#D...s_have_a_queen

Wil 05-25-2008 09:13 AM

Skillya is one Slig queen. There are others, and there all run competing security companies. Paramites reproduce via a queen, but there’s by no means necessarily just one.

May it be like for bees in our world?

Wil 05-25-2008 10:02 AM

Yes, this is the model.
