- Back patterns vary
- Upper right picture depicts a typical capped Laboul
- Tendrils will also grow on their gliders, not just the cap

- Capped Laboul rarely are away from Acos
The Laboul are peaceful, but spiteful peoples. While they are willing and ready to do trade with the other kingdoms, should a village not keep their end of the deal or spurn the good work of these gliders, they will send word throughout their entire kingdom to not do trade with that village until amends are made.Â
As Acos is rarely around, only ever resting for maybe a week of the year, so the Laboul have made their own system of government. Each village/town is run by the most experienced non-capped members. If there is ever an issue within a town, there is a town vote on how to proceed. If the matter includes towns outside of their own, the town ambassadors will meet in council to vote on the matter.Â
As for their main source of trade, the Laboul actually cultivate water to disperse to villages in times that Acos is not gracing them. Their water comes in Fresh, Salt-filled, and Brackish. They store and transport these waters in return for other goods, mainly soils.Â
Their species were gifted Gliders from Acos because of the terrain the sleeping storm giant accidentally made. Their kingdom, being mostly marsh and wetland, became filled with predators who would easily snack on unsuspecting Laboul.Â
Capped Laboul carry a spore that many kingdoms consider defensive, but in reality these peoples use them in an offensive manner. Using wind they can fully fly, usually choosing to fly along side of Acos. In times of danger they will either fly away, or create small tornados to confuse and stun the threat. Those who prefer using water often stay out to sea to help control the flow of the tide. Having to deal with more threats, they’ve learned to utilize the water to create and control currents to change the path of predators or encase themselves in whirpool.
