The Mud King
Known as Gchuuuuuuurt is the clicking, popping, slickly language of the Mud Men. The Mud King rose to power, wearing the Mud Ring, riding on the back of a Mud Cow, and bearing Mudstick, a "magic sword" that was the sign of his office.
The Mud King was loved by his people, whom he lead out of Portund and south to fields of mud unrivaled by anything seen by even the eldest of the Mud Men. His people prospered and became bold. He lead his people in a series of campaigns known as the Particularly Dirty Raids.
As told in the ElemenstorLance novel, Mudlake, the Forester, the Mud King was known to be a closed minded harsh critic within his society, with little tolerance for change or anything that may be considered avant-garde. He entirely destroyed a village of his own people who were poets and abstract artists, working with colorful mud mediums, by breaking a dam that was up the valley from this colony.
Within the fan community, those who reject pieces of official canon because they are "too out there" or they just "don't get it" are usually referred to by those "in the know" as Mud Kings. Many of the articles in this very wiki about The Elemenstor Cycle were written by Mud Kings, and suggest that certain books were nonsense or not well recieved by the fan base.
