HOWEVER. they do have an interesting story and are directly related to LOBS.




okay, for starters, to explain how they kind of came to be how they are…

the three siblings (Toke, Crowe, and Oxy) did not have any parents. they were born from a stone egg/boulder (much like sun wukong!) when their consciousness’ were able to fathom existence. all boulders are actually eggs, incubating the first tier of spirit animal.



however, the problem is, they were all born from the same boulder. whomever—it is unclear who was in charge originally—fathomed multiple identities before imagining a singular identity, splitting the mind into three, equally terrible parts of the same spirit animal.

spirit animals, in their world, are usually ethereal creatures, eloquent and generally god-like in appearance. these three possess little physical prowess, no special abilities to speak of, no ‘calling’ or defining features, if one would look at them they just looked like an average creature of Tirp, not some sort of multi-dimensional deity. and they aren’t, they’re more like demi-gods, with the ability to sometimes contact their counterparts in the other universes, but not on command, and lacking the other perks of being a spirit animal.

you see, in Tirp, when you come to a genuine personal revelation (a spiritual experience, a scientific discovery, a social law) it literally /becomes/ real. each mind on Tirp, whether they are spirit animals or not, literally shapes the entire universe that Tirp resides in. however, these must be genuine beliefs, not coerced fibs or forced mantras. they like a strike of inspiration or epiphany. there are multiple ways to become ‘spirit animal’ tier, it’s kind of like leveling up. in each creature’s existence, they are given multiple chances to prove themselves worthy of leading souls through their own universes. you can fail many times, but you only need to pass these incredible trials once to secure a spot as a guide. these tests are extremely difficult, choosing the fate of a friend, loved one, or even group of people over your own mortality, extreme situations of moral judgement, and conceiving existence (birthing yourself, basically, rather than being birthed).

anyway! a little about each one…





CROWE

a sand prophet, by far the most thoughtful of the three. his own inability to close his mind and make decisions or judgement calls usually leads to inaction and missed opportunities. he does not speak often but generally what he says is meaningful. he has spend over one-hundred Earth years meditating and learning from the spirit-dolphin Apollo. because of that, he is very detached from the woes of anyone in his own universe, preferring the company of his soul-links (parallel incarnations, his spirit ‘people’ perse).







OXY

oxy is only interested in physical pleasure. often times, the pleasure of the world is not enough to sate her needs, and so she makes a habit of dreaming up new concoctions to lull her into a blissful slumber. since death is not something contemplated yet in her mental timeline, she often comes and goes from comas due to her need for time to pass in pleasure. she is a hedonist.

the only thing she dreads more than hard work is her brothers.







TOKE

toke is a beast without the path of guidance in his mind. he has never sought purpose in his life and rather meanders through whatever circumstances or situations he happens to pass. he also wanders, but more due to expulsion than lust for the unknown. he is constantly altering his perception by smoking herbs he finds on his travels. he has loud, uncaring attitude toward people who create God in their lives. he is at root an atheist although much more aggressive about it than most people, actively seeking to punish those who seek deities. Later on he becomes a full-blown Narcissist.





TOKE GOAT

due to the meddling of his siblings, following Toke’s death, there was a rift in the reincarnation cycle. instead of waiting millions of years to reincarnate, he was immediately reincarnated, but at a cost none of them could have ever imagined, he now haunts the surface of Tirp, killing spirit animals and the other inhabitants of Tirp, a seemingly unstoppable force of nature unlike anything that has ever walked a planet before. he is literally a law of nature.
