Elum
 
How was elum born?

Now, let me tell you all about the birds and the bees...
when a male elum and a female elum like each other they kiss, then a while later they get a baby delivered by Stork-Express...

I always figured that Elums did there thing and layed a batch of eggs.

no one knows...

I do, Elums are oddworlds mules right? So there must be a oddworld Horse and Donkey that give birth to the elum. Maybe the animals are called esrohs and yeknods! hehe.

AND NOW FOR MY FINAL THOUGHT
My guess is that nearly all creatures in oddworld are egg laying sonsofguns. So if that were so, why didn't those damn glukk freaks make scrambled eggs???

Pinkies right, that will be the most stupidest peice of crap ever. If oddworld did that i will loose faith in them and delete everything odd in my life.
What do you mean by "Elums are oddworlds mules right?" They are not oddworlds mule, its just because mule backwards is elum, Elum's and mules are totaly different.
ELums dont have hair
elums dont eat hay
elums dont carry stuff (meetles do)
elums dont walk on 4 legs
mules dont have horns

"So there must be a oddworld Horse and Donkey that give birth to the elum" Now this is the most stupidest thing ever. A horse and donkey have sex and becomes a Elum, then what? an elum have sex with an elum and make a horse and donkey!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!


SOMEONE GET THIS GUY A SHOTGUN!!!

I think Crazy Vykkers is the most sane thought just a male + female then the little baby elum

Alector 07-11-2001 02:59 PM

Are you a little bit sleepy today, or why did you say this tricky sentence??? Esrohs??? Yeknods????

Hi, folks!

I think Dakkan just wanted to play with words when he made the joke about mules, horses and donkeys, since Elum is Mule backwards(everybody knows that).

As another Oddworld creatures(Scrabs=crabs, paramites=parasites), the OWI designers(Farzad, mostly)used a Mule concept to create the Elum.

It doesn't mean that Elum is a Mule, at all!! Both creatures have similarities, and the most evident is that both are "beasts of burden".

Now, let me tell you a bit about Mules. As Dakkan knows, MULES are sterile hibride animals that result from a crossbreed between a HORSE and a DONKEY.

Horses and donkeys are equines from different species, and although they can reproduce among each other, their offsprings(babies, for the german girls that have problem translating difficult words) are sterile, they can't have babies. These offsprings are called MULES


so, the JOKE was: if there is an Elum (mule backwards), there is also a Esroh (horse backwards) and a Yeknod (donkey backwards) that togheter give birth to a Elum (again, mule backwards).

It was a joke, just a joke. A clever one, I'd say...

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 07-11-2001 10:13 PM

Yeah, it would be dumb if he did came from a mule beacuase it would think that they really did'nt make up the characters. Just imitations of Earthly thingies.

ODDBODD 07-12-2001 11:51 AM

its funny how everyone bags out dakkan for saying that

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 07-12-2001 01:56 PM

Well like I said, phew, Elum sure smells like a mule, phew.

Zoolag 07-12-2001 04:38 PM

Or...we could all take a big step back. Look at everything being said and say "Why the hell are we argueing!?" and then someone who is SANE can say "Because we think Oddworld creatures are real" and then we can all laugh and crack some more odd jokes as the men in white trot along, put us in a nice white restraning jacket also known as a straight-jacket and take us to our rooms with cusions on the wall. Yay.
