I dont know, but it did sound like a cool idea. but perhaps your right.

Well, lets not forget Skillya. Its possible that she has some type of prodical Slig to help here just like Mullok was the prodical Glukkon son and Queen Maggies favorite.:fuzsmile:

Kaimana 07-11-2002 02:58 PM

yes perhaps we will see a high class of sligs working in the presents of Skillya.:fuzsmile:

Xavier 07-11-2002 03:58 PM

I think they will be simples worker class sligs.
maybe one or 2 can be a bit higher

but there is no reason they will be higher than valets

Maybe there is a land of sligs, like a country - home to the slig population not working for the Maggog Cartel, who actually have a Slig King and Queen.

Xavier 07-11-2002 04:09 PM

a slig king?
I think you are new here...
plus I doubt what you describe will come true.

Kaimana 07-11-2002 04:13 PM

It comes to my understanding that Sligs are .A. sexual that means that they can reporduce without sexual intercourse. ths making a king usless and not nesseceary.

Xavier 07-11-2002 04:18 PM

that's it.
and it's official: the queens command everything on Oddworld. and they will not allow one of there kids to become "king" or wathever

Iantiger 07-11-2002 04:23 PM

Hey Woah, calm down. It was just a random idea/suggesion for you guyz to chew over.

Xavier 07-11-2002 04:26 PM

sorry if I sounded bad, It wasn't my intention, but it was a bit absurd

sorry

Iantiger 07-11-2002 05:47 PM

S'ok, I guess I overeacted too.

Kaimana 07-11-2002 05:52 PM

my intention was to point out the fact that Kings do not exist i didnt mean to say it in a irritated way. It is just know that Kings play no role and do not have a place if they exist at all wich they dont.

Exactly what I was thinking, Khanz. :) I wonder if other "slave" sligs are envious of these high-flying celebrities? Or do they hate them out of jealousy? Do they think they are crazy to speak their mind? lol so many questions I have! :lol:

Iantiger, dispite what everyone else is saying (lol no offence anybody) I think you're right. I thinks there could be "Royal sligs". Maybe he would have more power than even some glukkons, if they were poor enough and he was rich enough, that is. Skillya's drones may be revered as Royal, who knows? (BTW - I had read that Skillya has several drones who serve as boilogical fathers to her offspring---does anyone know any more about this? is it accurate? my appologies if i'm mistaken)

Slig Kings? there are none YET, but that doesn't mean there never will be. Although I'm a huge fan of the queen-domination thing (I'm a fullblown feminist), I don't thinks Kings are an impossible concept for future games. Mullock was very, very powerful. Wasn't he the head of the Cartel? And the Cartel is over the Queen, or at least just as powerful, right? hmmm i wonder what the odds are? (no pun intedned :lol: )
