Zig: *hops up and down on his tree branch* No no no no no! Me!? Wearing a hermit shell!? Pluuuuuzzzzz.....I'm sticking to the trees *darts up further into his tree*
Uh...sorry...one of my slig characters. *mutters something about him only appearing lately when his species living style is at stake*
I personally believe native sligs live in the trees, living in tribes much like the mudokons. They wear masks because the gluks think they are ugly (I don't think they serve any other function...as if they enhanced sight in anyway they would have been able to spot Abe in the shados in AO and AE). The wiring you see coming from the masks and attaching to the pants I think serve to keep the sligs from falling flat on their faces. (come on now...sligs are top heavy...they wouldn't be able to stay in those pants without something to hold them up)
The masks as breathing things? *shakes head* doesn't seem right to me. If that were so the gluks would had had to provide them with them from the start...and if I know gluks right they would be very hesitent at best to shell out a bunch of moola to have the Vykks make those breathing things so the sligs could work on dry land...
Just my 2 cents...
