    I love the shoebill...he's just so...bird. Best of all he doesn't follow you like other minions. He's almost like the campfire. But will fly if you go far enough. So players probably just see him sitting in weird places by himself.

    • @plazmadood
      @plazmadood Před 4 měsíci +7

      He's great, I love how he's not too active and on occasion you can catch him starring at you, and if you /poke he does a thing.

    The so called "Giant Beaver" does not have the traits of a beaver. The tail is short and stubby and not big, wide and flat. It also has fangs and not teeth designed for chewing through trees.
    I humbly submit this creature is actually a "Werehamster" and should be renamed as such (to quote a friend in game).

    Yeah I'm definitely surprised non of the minions tied to the Gridanian Goldsmith was brought up. Those being the Wind-up Succubus, Puff of Darkness, Wind-up Echidna, and Wind-up Calofisteri( is name dropped). The descriptions for the Little Leannan, Clionid Larva and Wind-up Athena are probably some of my favorites.
    I think the Shoebill is what Emet-Selch uses to spy on the WoL. It only shows up in places he's in.

    I always had a suspicion that the mud boss was actually poop, but the "crown" actually symbolizing a piece of corn was a shocking realization. That and the description HAS to be full confirmation.
    And it makes sense since the whole questline is about getting the mud for its incredibly fertile properties, but we all know what fertilizer actually is...

    Feculent is the perfect word because it fits their sillyness in the best way. It actually gives them plausable deniability because it actually means "of or containing dirt, sediment, or waste matter." So they can say its just dirt, even though we all know better. =p

    6:43 Watch the Ghibli movie "Pom Poko" for further information. A "funny" environment fantasy tale where the Tanuki can shape shift and use their inflated ball sacks as spring balls or spread them out to make gliders and fly with them.

    There's also the Gridanian Goldsmith/Dollmaster minions: Influenced by encounters with Voidscent and the phantom realm, a mad/evil goldsmith crafted a series of minions of the Voidscent and the Gods before killing themselves. His other disturbing work carries over into the Sharlayan Library and the Lapis Manalis dungeon.

    I'm surprised none of the "Gridanian Goldsmith's" minions are listed, tho (like the wind-up succubus). He was supposedly executed for ritual summoning. His story is spread among several minions, like the aforementioned succubus and the wind-up Echidna. There's even a book in the Great Gubal Library that talks about his obsession with Lady Amandine, the boss of Haukke Manor, and his desire to let a Voidsent possess her body for his own....uses.😳
    Supposedly, the minions were a proxy since he couldn't get his hands on the body of the real Amandine.🥶
