Is this another way for Mudokon classification?
 
How come some mudokons are like green and Abe is only Blue, and blind Mudokons and Tamohawkers (Punk Mudokons) are white? Is it part of there culture or somthing? Where they originally green/blue but stayed in the house all day?

Zoolag 08-02-2001 05:41 PM

Abe is blue because he is the chosen one Normal Mud's are Green. The Blind Mudokons are grey because their skin has never seen the sun light. Thus paleling. And going that grey colour. Tomahawkers...i have NO idea y they are white!!

These are jus' theories by the way!

Olivia 08-02-2001 06:30 PM

I agree with Oryon, It may be just Theroies but its good. Also I have no I dea why Punk mudocons are white! :confused:

General Drippik 08-03-2001 07:19 AM

I think that the white punks are white because that's what colour they were when they were born. OK, that sounds dumb but listen. I think that they are just born that way, like black Africans or Australian aboriginals. If I am right, all of their ancestors/relations would be whites aswell!

Tomahawkers don't have white skin, their bodies are painted to show their status. Tomahawkers are "upgraded" from green mudokons. Abe does that using shrines. I guess the way Toms use colors is part of their culture.

i guess that the only explanation for it :) But i have seen a picture of a orange mud somehwere?

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 08-03-2001 11:34 AM

No, If his body was painted white, you would see some tint of green and that green mudokon is not a tomohawker.

ODDBODD 08-03-2001 12:36 PM

lol yeah lamp why'd ya put that pic? And pinky your wrong about the green tint!!!! YOUR WRONG!!! AHAHAHAHA

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 08-03-2001 12:43 PM

Your Wrong Oddbodd! Bwahahahah! Because, I use to be in drama club, and I was like a blue troll, and I was painted blue. But when it dried, I could see my skin color through, so pfff to you wrong crack boy! Bwahahahahh!

ODDBODD 08-03-2001 01:43 PM

thats because human paints SUCK!! It might be a permanent colour. For example maybe they get their colour by ritual (like tatoos)

AHA CRACKGIRL!

Lampion 08-03-2001 05:29 PM

YEs, Pinky, the green mudokon is not a Tomahawker YET. But after he is zapped by that blue lightning bolt from the shrine that Abe has activated, he is "upgraded" into a Tomahawker.

That's how you will be able to "create" new characters in the game. You won't just create them from nothing. You will instead upgrade different existing characters to a higher status, depending of what upgrading device you will be using. In the example above, Abe is using a shrine to create Tomahawkers.

But LAmpion, how do you know this information?

Lampion 08-03-2001 06:20 PM

Hey, Pinky! Take a look at my last reply, I edited it so that you can see some links to Tomahawk info

ODDBODD 08-04-2001 04:55 AM

Why would you wanna convert a tomohawkerto mud and vice versa??

Lampion 08-04-2001 09:40 AM

sometimes you need psichic powers, sometimes you need powerfull muscles, sometimes you need some workers, the list goes on...

General Drippik 08-05-2001 09:37 PM

What is so special about those tomahawkers anyway?

Oddsville 08-06-2001 01:58 AM

They probably can be used to defend a certain teritory, or building. Or mabye they just wanna be at a higher status.

How do you know it's not his directors talking Lampion? Hmmm?

Oddbodd, what are you blabbing about now?

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 08-09-2001 05:53 PM

And did he say why they were white? They look pale like vampires or something I think they stay inside alot.

Lantra 08-09-2001 06:57 PM

the blind muds live in necrum mines so their skin goes white from lack of sunlight.
tomahawkers wear bodypaint. green is the muds natural colour. abe was blue so that you could tell him apart from the other muds in the game. these are just my ideas. i could be wrong.

Dripik was spamming and attacking me from something i have no idea abo? The spam sketch is from monty python. Anyhoo the colour concept is

NATIVE - GREEN: because its mudokons natural colour
ABE - BLUE: because he is the chosen leader like how big face is blue
BLIND MUDS - WHITE: lack of light
TOMAHAWKERS - WHITE: Because it is what colour them type of muds are (e.g white people and black people ;))

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 08-10-2001 08:07 PM

No, But the question is WHY are they white? What does it symbolize? Why not orange?

Alector 08-10-2001 10:12 PM

LOL....orange...eeeew! That's like you said "Why not purple-fart-brown?" bwahahahahaha!!! I think that we'll know this when we play Munch's Oddysee. Perhaps they saw themselves in the mirror bwahahahaha!!! ...just a little joke...ahem...

MrBoj 08-11-2001 02:36 AM

hey Pink, I think you're reading a little too much into this. What does their white skin symbolize? Heck, what does their spikey, blue/purple/red stripped hair symbolize? That's what I'd like to know.
