The Chooka-mooka Head

Located somewhere in the Tiplands, the Chooka-mooka head is a ruined granary that was reimagined as a statue of the "Big ugly papa" by a tribe of goblins and is being used as a central place of worship by the tribe.   Initially built by Revantine settlers who have since abandoned the area, after a few years the stone granary was the only structure that was left standing, albeit in grave disrepair. Eventually group of goblins discovered it an were taken aback by what they considered to be a monument of a new god - the shape of the structure resembling traditional goblin head totems. With the entrance looking like a mouth and a conveniently fallen out brick serving as a single eye under a desolate roof with loose planks pointing in every direction for hair, the group immediately settled the area, founding a new tribe centered around this new mysterious god, the Big Ugly Papa, called the Chooka-mooka tribe, which somehow translates to "children of the hideous one eyed stone face man who likes to eat pretty children and avocado" tribe, according to the only man who supposedly speaks all seven hundred and thirteen goblin languages, the mad swamp hermit, Pants.   The Chooka-mooka tribe would care for their new deity vigorously and would not only secure the structure's remaining integrity with dried mud and feces, but would also decorate it with flowers, twigs, various doodads found in the wilderness and even more mud and feces. The goblins would build their shacks and burrows around the old granary in a circular pattern, with only the strongest and wisest of the tribesmen having their shacks hug the monument. The inside of the monument is sacred and is used to "feed" the god, with the goblins taking copious amounts of food, especially avocado as well as anything that they consider pretty inside and leaving it to rot.   Due to their obsession with feeding their beloved father-god, the tribe does not have enough food to grow larger, despite the famed goblin fertility, but remains happy and well-spirited due to their conviction and dedication to the monument, living a life of purpose and relative modesty usually uncommon for their kind.
