ABOUT

You are surrounded by thin, spry little people, who have figures instead of heads, and the fours, eights, sevens and ciphers bobbing up and down make their presence terribly confusing. Their houses are dull, oblong affairs, set in rows and rows with never a garden in sight. Each street has a large signpost on the corner, plus and minus signs with here and there a long division sign.

Figurefolk consist of three differentiated castes: figure heads, count-it-ups, and giant rulers.

Figure heads are irritating roughly humanoid numbers who have arms and legs. They are constantly trying to create “problems,” by lining up in wall-like fashion to force sentient creatures to complete their equations. Only then will they willingly move. If thwarted, they run about shouting and dancing in chaotic confusion.

Figure heads on their own are merely irritating, but in large numbers they can be serious obstacles. They appear in groups of four, hedging in outsiders to force them to complete their equations.

The lieutenants of figure heads, count-it-ups direct figure head swarms. They appear as human-sized pencils with arms and legs. They are aggressive towards strangers and will insist that they must complete equations before leaving the area.

Giant rulers are twice the size of a man, with arms and legs.

They are disinterested in anything but keeping their figure head citizens in line, but will fight ferociously if attacked.
