Ooblet (creature)

An Ooblet is a type of creature that populates mainland Oob.

Appearance
Ooblets come in a variety of shapes, but there are similarities between species. Each species of ooblet is approximately the same height, with some variation between individuals. They all travel at the same speed, and all have at least two limbs. With some exception, most ooblets are bipedal.

Each ooblet species comes in three variations: common, which are the most plentiful; uncommon, which are moderately rare; and GLEAMY, an extremely rare variety.

Categories
Ooblets are grouped into categories based on similarities in appearance or origin. These groupings can be seen in-game by the figuring display cases in Town Hall and consist of Woodlandsies, Fawnoobs, Somethings, Soggies, Veggibles, Droplups, Mamoonials, Clubcrits, and Nullweirdos.

Dancing
Dancing is an important part of ooblet behavior, and one of their favorite activities. Ooblets often take part in dance battles - competitions to see who, or which team, is the best at dancing. Aside from showing off, these competitions can also be used to resolve conflict. Matches can be anywhere from one-on-one to five-on-five, but the number of dancers on each side is always equal.

Relationship to oobins
Ooblets are kept as pets by oobins. Oobins living in mainland Oob are expected to own at least one ooblet, relying on them to the point that a person without one won't be able to get much done.
