Honestly this is the most wonderfully disney-esque thing they ever came up with. I can just picture this dude coming to life like a gargoyle and singing Friend Like Me or something.

Not just singing; it'd play its own instruments!
Anyway, back to Hand of Odd; I noticed something in one of these CG snippets.

The one above has the Last Legs soundtrack instead of the original music, while the link below has a download for the original video (with sound) at the bottom.
Anyway, I noticed something about the drummer; specifically, the scar/tattoo on his back. It's like a ring, but the top has something with two curved "wings," along with two other appendages on the head.
This is mindless speculation, but the symbol looks a bit like a Song Engine, with water cascading along its sides. If that's true, then the Mudokons around the fire may be performing some kind of ritual to awaken it (kind of like how a Storm Circle is operated).
