Banqoloths

If you've attended a lavish bash on Tumultia, you undoubtedly will have seen a banqoloth. These shaggy snack servers have six arms each and will hang from the ceiling offering out champagne and vol-au-vents. If you've not attended such a shindig, why are you even reading this? This is a fancy site for fancy people. Be gone, oik, be gone!

Banqoloth by Zuza Gruzlewska

Like all faer, banqoloths work in exchange for mana. Unlike most, they charge an exorbitant amount. This isn't because they provide a better service; it's more that rich people like to flaunt their wealth, and this opens the door to vendors who charge a great deal for otherwise ordinary work.

Beyond their ability to dish out hors d'oeuvres, banqoloths have the strength and extremities needed to carry away drunks at the end of the evening. Sloshed CEOs and aristocrats claim banqoloths have the softest grip, making them the option of choice when a person needs dragging away from a fist fight or having their hair held back during vomiting.

Banqoloth Facts

Banqoloths have become such a staple of elegant soirees that many of the 'best' people will refuse service from anything else.These sloth-a-likes can speak, but they do so very slowly. Generally they'll say things like, "Exceeeeeleeeeent chooooooiiiiiice, maaaadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam."For the price of one banqoloth you could hire an entire team of sentient servers - especially if you do what everyone else does and pay them badly.

Creation Notes

I drew the banqoloth a while ago and had it in my back pocket waiting for a banquet to come up. Why I drew one, I don't remember. Possibly I came up with the name 'banqoloth' and decided it sounded like 'banquet sloth'?

Potentially it came to me in a dream?

Probably I got bored and started drawing.
