Cormin Garvel, Iblet Kikki and Grinn, all upcoming Oddworld characters?

[Alcar]

Well over at the Infograme Oddworld Forums I just saw this posted:

I don't want to know the events that happen and stuff, but I've heard rumours of some new characters:

Cormin Garvel: A crippled Glukkon that has a mental link with Squeek and ends up helping him.

Iblet Kikki: A nervous Mudokon shaman that gives Squeek the power to become that big red thing that Abe becomes in Abe's Exoddus (not a Scrab).

Grinn: A Mudokon who never says anyhting, just grins like a fool and attacks Paramites.

What do you think about it? Do you thnk it's true? Or is it a lie, a complete and utter lie?

I myself feel that it is not trustworthy, although there is freedom to speculate.

[Intern_485]

I don't believe this. How come nobody else has heard of any of this and how come the names are so terrible? This can't be Lorne Lanning material.

[Gluk Schmuck]

Also, since when have Oddworld characters had two names? Whoever wrote that obviously thought everyone were idiots.

[Abe the legend]

Just look at the names and descriptions !How awful,a glukkon helping a...whatever Squeek is(he can't be a glukkon!) !

[paramiteabe]

Yea but we don't know what Squeek is yet. Maybe he is a magog creature? We don't know. But yet that dident sound very true interesting but true? I don't know. We will have to wait to find out.

I dident recall ever turning into that red thing in AE. What is it? Ive never seen anything like that and I play it all the time. And there is one character we know that has a first and last name and he is Munch.

[Jacob]

Yeh, Munch had a first and last name mainly due to the fact that he was a free creature to start off with. Abe didn't due to him being a slave.

Cormin and Iblet seem Oddworldish however. Their species sound wrong though.

[Mac the Janitor]

3 reasons I don't believe him:

1)The first and last name thing. Not gonna happen.

2)Grinn. Stupidest character I've ever heard of.

3)I would trust this guy, but he didn't even know what a Shrykull is. That topped the cake.



BTW, you guys said Munch has a last name. What is it?

[Oddsville]

The descriptions of the characters are really interesting, however the names are not. I don't belive that these rumors are true at all, just made up.

Edit: His last, or first? Im not sure anyway his full name is Latamire Munch.

[Kaimana]

Well we see no evidence supporting that. and i do not believe that OWI will even give it out. i highly doubt that its is true, only a rumor.

[Jacob]

Latamire Munch

[scrabinator]

I'm certain mudokons and glukkons don't have last names because they all come from the same queens (well one for muds and one for glukkons). It would be pointless to have a last name because they would all be the same. But gabbits don't have a queen so they have last names. This guy's a liar!

[Oddsville]

Good point Scrabinator, I never thought of that. This almost proves that they are lies.

[Mac the Janitor]

Yeah, that's a great explanation. I never thought of that...I thought OWI just wanted it simple.

[scrabinator]

Didn't you guys ever think of that? That was one of the first things I thought of when I found out they had a queen.

[Xavier]

I don't believe in those things...
It just sounds ridicoulous

[scrabinator]

Grinn sounds stupid. Why would he not talk and attack paramites? And Iblet! Why do we need a new shaman? We already have the shaman from MO! I think Abe is the only one who will turn into shrykull. He did all those tests but what did Squeek do? If Cormin does help Squeek because he's a Magog creature then I don't think Iblet would be to keen on giving him the shrykull power!

[Xavier]

apparently the guy don't know what he is talking about... he don't know the name of the shrykull... don't sounds credible to me
