Meet the Gamma Clan

The Gamma Clan is the stonemason clan. They are incredibly hard working and every clan depends on them for the livestock and crops they raise. They are docile people and stalwart in friendship. Gammas are also brought up from a young age to be gentle and modest due to their strength and the other clans’ reliance on them. They provide many resources from their vast mines to their oil wells to their large farms and ranches. The tallest mountain in Glykos, Mount  Krystalloméni, is located here and is a wealth of Crystal Candy which the Gamma have been mining for millennia. The more creative Gammas find themselves working mostly in architecture, planning, building housing, cities, and larger structures like the famed Epsilon Library. Gamma is one of the three oldest and most influential clans.


culture

Gammas tend to be monothestic. The royal family being the biggest example of this. They believe in goodness, strong morals, and helping others. Marriage is a big deal to them and it’s very rare to have a divorce. They also tend to believe that if you’re a good person, you’ll have a good afterlife and choose kindness above all else.

Gammafloss are known for jeans, button up shirts mostly in plaids or solid colors, cowboy boots, chaps, spurs, and belts with big belt buckles. The ladies dress similarly as well as wearing short cutoffs, daisy duke style, and crop tops tied at the waist. They tend to not be as fancy, choosing instead sturdy clothing to help them out in the fields and on the ranches

While Gamma is mostly dirt roads and open fields, they have some major roads for flatbed trucks and motorcyclists to be able to travel easily on mostly for importing goods and tourists. The rest of the roads are less defined and most people travel on Trogon back as that is the easiest way to navigate and since there’s a lot of open land to be crossed if one is traveling a long distance. There are large bridges spanning the Omega Canyon since it opened that have several lanes for vehicles and travelers crossing from one side to the other along with a lift system for Omega to take people and goods back and forth.

Gammafloss eat a lot of what is considered cowboy food: chili, fried foods, lots of corn, farm fresh foods. Families grow their own food either in huge backyard gardens or eat from what they keep of their farmed goods as well as raising livestock. There are lots of farmer’s markets and at least one in every town though there can be several in the cities. It’s very rare to have imported goods in small towns as it’s just too difficult to get it to them and many floss have to go to large cities to find any that can’t be grown in Gamma.

The Gamma used guns for a long time, shot guns, revolvers, they were used as tools to help protect the farms. They aren’t used as much anymore, just for hunting and to get rid of vermin that attack the livestock. They are very docile people and prefer to avoid conflict altogether when possible. They also don’t tend to have reasons to fight each other and any conflict that does arise is usually solved with arm wrestling.

attributes

Here are some common attributes shared by the members of the Gamma Clan. Does your floss fit the mold? Or are they an odd man out? Either way these are some stereotypes they may be compared to by other Candyfloss throughout their lives.

  • Gentle | With their dangerous strength, Gamma are taught from a young age to have patience and self-discipline. This brought about the image of Gamma being gentle giants, whether its true of everyone or not.

  • Slow | Due to the layout of Gamma settlements, with large expanses of land between homes, families were often too far from the nearest schools so they would home school (or not school) their children. Though in modern times this is less true, some floss associate the Gamma with being uneducated.

  • Brave | Gamma are known for being the tough, strong, fearless clan. When a Gammafloss squeals at a spider, they are teased more than the average floss.

  • Hospitable | Gamma families are known for taking in strangers and feeding them heaps of hot home cooked meals and pats on the back. Though this unwarranted attention can be seen as overbearing or annoying by some floss, the Gamma see it as good ol' home grown hospitality.

  • Big and Strong | Due to their way of life and their powers, Gamma are usually big, tall, and muscular... or at least thats how they are depicted in the media. For floss who dont fit the bill, it can be a pretty hurtful stereotype to have to deal with, both externally and internally.



History

To this day, Floss still tell stories about the hero cowboy, Clintwood Nelson. Before the Great War and electricity, during the olden days of Gamma, people lived the life of the trails and farming. It was a lawless time, full of bandits, corruption, and cowboys who did their best to keep some kind of honor alive. Ritter City wasn’t the sprawling metropolis it is now, it was once a small dusty town with dirt roads and wooden buildings, saloons and people just trying to live. However, there was also a seedy underbelly. Unsavory folk who came to the town to make their own wealth and were happy to use corruption to do it. They took over the local government and started making life even harder with outrageous taxes and thievery. One day a stranger entered the town. He entered the rundown saloon and was immediately able to smell the reek of corruption. They tried to push him around and make him pay more than was owed, but he wasn’t having it and told them he’d fight for the old honor of the town. They ended up in a huge shootout in the middle of town, but what they didn’t know was that this cowboy was Clintwood Nelson, the fastest draw who ever lived. After a grueling battle, against all odds, Clintwood won and the town was his. The townspeople named him a hero and made him sheriff so corruption could never spread among them again. He took this duty very seriously and even helped clean up other towns, cleaning as much bad out of the clan as he could. And that is the story of the best, bravest, and quickest cowboy of Gamma.



leader

Grant Eastwood is the headstrong leader of the Gamma Clan. He is a powerful immovable object and rules his people with unbridled strength, an iron will, and solid perseverance. Where there's power there must also be delicacy and he has mastered both. There is a heart of gold under his pounds of muscle, and Grant is a strong father figure for many of his fellow clan members and is always there if a shoulder to cry on is needed. As the oldest clan leader, many defer to him and his wisdom when making decisions. Grant is a well-respected leader who knows how to handle himself and his clan. On his days off Grant enjoys reading with his wife in their homestead on the base of the northern mountain range. Each Sunday they have dinner with their 5 adult children.

 Grant was born a popfloss, and as the second son of the Gamma royal family Grant was not expected to take the clan leadership. While his older brother trained to be Gamma's next ruler Grant was trained as Prince Derek’s bodyguard in Alpha. From the time he was ten Grant would go back and forth between clans, training and spending time in his own clan when time, and Derek, permitted. Then the Great Rott happened. Grant was a teen soldier, dedicated to protecting the young prince. His father and brother fought against the Rottenfloss and died in battle and Grant suddenly became the Gamma leader. Still fighting to protect Derek, Grant was bit by a rottenfloss when they breached the Alpha castle and was turned. Derek, took the crown when his own father fell, and determined to not let his beloved bodyguard have the same fate, he found the cure just in time.

Now a trufflefloss, Grant lives a more peaceful life. He is married to a Zetafloss named Mary who is quiet and polite and demure. They have a ranch in the country side instead of in the capital city where Grant enjoys his older years breeding Petrinos and Vouno Trogons and competing in rodeos.  He’s got 5 adult kids and his eldest daughter is being trained to take  over the clan, a sugarfloss like her mom. All of the leaders love him and he’s like the big brother of the leaders. He’s inspirational and brave and always looks to the bright side.

Gamma territory

Gamma is located in Mid-eastern Glykos.  The northern border of Gamma is lined with a huge mountain range. The  Gamma region is rather warm with average temperatures around 70 degrees  Fahrenheit. Frequent Rainfall in the Gamma region makes their land quite  fertile and Gammafloss often take on ranches and farms to support their  family. With a low population  the Gamma region is fraught with miles of empty land usually covered in  long grasses. On clear nights, the constellations and galaxies can be  seen crystal clear in the Gamma sky.

nature

78487621_2mQTNug61u5acOg.png78487636_NyyYXL1aDnen5lY.pngThe Weather in Gamma is temperate and  usually warm. In the winter months it's known to drop into the 30's and  sometimes they will get a light flurry of snow, but it never stays  around for long. The skies in Gamma usually take on a light yellow hue,  almost like an eternal sunrise.

The ground in Gamma ranges from fertile soil to rock terrain and mountains so the plantlife also varies. Pine trees in the east, ceder in the middle and great oaks in the west. Blue grasses grow long and dry across the fields and give the vistas in Gamma a rolling wave like feature when the breeze blows.
                                           

landmarks

The King Eastwood II Memorial
AKA. "The Big Hat"
 
 There is a giant statue of a ten gallon hat carved of stone to commemorate the Gamma leader Ford Eastwood, Grant’s father, that wore a hat so large that it got cut off in pictures. It was very recognizable and was thus immortalized. There’s a museum about Gamma’s history located inside as well as a gift shop for tourists to get their own piece of Gamma to take home with them.

Omega Canyon

A huge canyon opened up from one end of Gamma to the other and the Omega and brittlefloss were found. There are huge bridges spanning the gap and the Gammas built a lift system so the Omega floss could join the rest of them. Gamma also built a little town inside the canyon to help with relations between the new clan and the other ones.






  

settlements

Capital City - Ritter City

This city is the only large metropolis and most of the floss from other clans live here. It’s evolved a lot over time from a dusty little town of wooden buildings to the sprawling city it is now. It’s located at the foothills of the big mountain range that separates Gamma from Alpha and is surrounded by a lot of farmland, so it’s the only thing that can be seen for miles on the skyline, except for the mountains.


Autryville

This city is best known for being the country music capital of Gamma. Floss come from all over to see concerts here and to come make music as well. They are also known for their huge fair that rivals the one Grant puts on in the capital. This is the city with the next highest number of tourists to the capital and the Gamma are sure to show great hospitality to all of their visitors.  


Murphy Town 

The southernmost town in Gamma, Murphy Town is very cut off from everything. It is still very much in the old ways because the townspeople like it that way with lots of wooden buildings, very few vehicles, and lots of wandering Trogon. It is probably the last town with any wooden buildings and is a cowboy town. It’s surrounded by farm land cultivated by wealthy floss who are responsible for creating crops for the generations.


Pickett

Pickett Town is very hot and sandy with cacti everywhere. There is a huge man made water reservoir outside of the town to keep everyone hydrated as well as lots of dirt devils and snakes. The floss here live in adobe houses and the area is known for the spicy foods everyone here eats.  


East Cash City

Between two large mountains, this mining city is located by water so the floss can use it to transport the mined goods to the Gamma capital and Alpha clan. It’s a lot more industrial than any of the other cities, more metal is used when building here and the buildings are on stilts because of the hills. There are factories here to make the mining gear and process the mined goods. There is also a large dockyard on the water for exports and the most imported goods are found here.

boxing-512.pngClan power

super strength

  
   The Gamma Clan’s powers are incredible  strength and invulnerability.  They use their strength to their  advantage in their trades, able to pick  up boulders and tree trunks  with ease while also being able to break or  shape them into whatever  they might need. Their invulnerability makes  the Gammas themselves like  rocks, able to withstand the other  Candyfloss’ physical, mental, and  spiritual damage and influence. The  strongest of the clan can be  unaffected by all three types of damage,  while younger members still  need to train and hone their different types  of defense and gain  control over their strength.






78487610_hZUSQlh9RFWj3FN.pngThe Gamma  clan pride themselves in contests of strength and the  Omádaball  Championship is the epitome of their athletic prowess! What  used to be a  Gamma only tradition has since broadened to an event  celebrated by all of  Caramella in the Rontero Fest 2020

Cyutoway Calf 

78413619_KUjtwD6RgE6OMNw.png 
The Cyutoway Calves are playful and energetic bovine who call the plains of Gamma their home!  These adorable pudgy calfs are much heavier than they look, weighing in at around 400 lbs on average! The Gammafloss that raise them dont have any issues with that however! The Cyutoway are extremely docile and not easily spooked. They move in large herds and are said to be able to flatten hills into flatland with their strong stomping. The Cyutoways have been trusty companions to the Gamma for generations. These silly calfs are known to stand up on their heign hoofs and trot around on two legs on occasion, and are able to leap and climb onto high cliffs. They cant saty upright for too long though, or they'll lose their balance and tip over!

chimecabra


78487613_UR3xrm0WUhrDQNL.pngThe Chimacabra are a menace that ravishes the flatlands and farmlands of mid and south Gamma. These vicious snake-dogs are as large as a Paizo dog and as mean as can be. Territorial in nature the Chimacabra hunt alone and at night, taking down entire Vouno Trogon from their flocks with their venomous mouths. Despite how it looks the brain of the Chimacabra is actually located on the snake-like tail and as such is hard to kill, with it's gamma strength this beast can take several bullets and grazes by horns or claws, and will hide it's soul gem on it's tail when it feels threatened.

chimecayote

78487618_IqnPodvsflcKOsJ.pngCalling the Chimecayote a Pet is a little misleading. These viscous animals are near impossible to tame and are wild, dangerous beasts. They move in small packs and hunt wild Trojan and Almaroo that go too deep into their territory. They arent afraid of anything, and lone floss may end up on their dinner menue too if theyre not careful. The Chimecayote are fast with their powerful heindlegs and rock hard heads they can down whole oak trees with a single headbutt, and that's just one of their heads, the snakes appendages that grow from their rear can move silently and with shocking speed
