Historically, the Mudokons have proven to be not at peaceful as we might first see them and wish them to be. The Mudanchee were a warrior tribe. Other Mudokons played advisor roles in the fights between other warlike races. And the modern Marching Mudokons don’t hold back in their uprising.

I used to be very worried by the apparent eager battle-readiness of the Mudokons in Munch’s Oddysee, thinking that as a peaceful race they should remain pacifist, and that any fighting they do must be a subversion of their character for the sake of action and violence. My views have become less naïve since then. Mudokons have a less than noble history that they’re going to rediscover, and their aggression now is justifiable. Mudokons are not ‘not much of a fighting race’.
