Yes, a wheazy, dusty old species would be ideal as a historian species - but why would there be a historian species? The Oddworld we've seen is run by desire - corporate greed and sick lust. Also, what part would they play in the story?
But still, a journalist species would be quite interesting. 'The Media' certainly does imply a negative collective, and I think they would fit in seemlessly, and possibly importantly, into the Quintology.
What I want to know is who built the factories. I imagine some sort of spider-creature with a workman's clevage, but I doubt it.
