Dval Gremlins

Description and Location:   Gremlins, diminutive creatures with a wiry build and metallic sheen to their skin, inhabit the forgotten depths of old Dvalian cities. Their eyes gleam with mischief and intelligence as they scuttle through crumbling ruins and hidden passages, always on the lookout for mechanical devices to tamper with.   Cultural Aspects:
  • Ingenious Tinkerers: Gremlins possess an innate knack for tinkering with machinery, inherited from their Dvalian creators. However, their tendencies lean more towards chaos and mischief rather than helpfulness. They take delight in causing havoc and grief for anyone working with machinery, often sabotaging devices for their own amusement.
  • Community of Mischief: Despite their reputation for chaos, gremlins value camaraderie within their own kind. They form tight-knit communities in the underground, collaborating on mischievous schemes and sharing their knowledge of mechanical devices.
  • Adaptability and Resourcefulness: Living in the harsh environment of old Dvalian cities has instilled gremlins with remarkable adaptability. They have learned to make use of every scrap of metal and machinery they can find, fashioning makeshift tools and traps to aid in their survival.
Reputation:   Gremlins are infamous for causing havoc and mischief, particularly with mechanical devices. They enjoy wreaking havoc on anyone working with machinery, earning them a reputation as pests to be avoided or dealt with swiftly. However, those who manage to befriend a gremlin discover that their knowledge and intuition when it comes to mechanics are unparalleled. Despite their chaotic nature, gremlins can be valuable allies for those who earn their trust.   History:   Gremlins were originally created by the Dvalians as experimental prototypes to assist with mechanical tasks. However, their curiosity and chaotic tendencies made them ill-suited to be obedient servants. As the Dvalian civilization crumbled, gremlins were left to fend for themselves in the abandoned cities, where they embraced their newfound freedom and independence. Over time, they became feral in a sense, adapting to their new environment and developing their own unique culture amidst the ruins.   Other Notes:
  • Some rumors suggest that rare individuals among the gremlins possess the ability to communicate with ancient Dvalian artifacts, unlocking hidden powers and secrets buried within the ruins.
