Thinkers: Difference between revisions

Garam is a very fast-moving Thinker, who starts each mission with two Warriors and the incredibly powerful Sharpened Axes passive technology. The combat prowess of his Braves has a leg up on others, in some cases negating the need for Combat technologies at all. Starting with Garam can be difficult, as he starts with no food and only three Braves. Two of his [[Technologies#Festival|Festivals]] require fabric, and he doesn't start with enough to build the Skylamp Festival. This all but necessitates using one of his Resource inspirations on a fabric-producing technology, which may or may not appear in the list. (Alternatively, remembering a technology such as the Lotus Pond makes this trivial.)

== Kala & Jeera ==

{{BlockQuote|Kala grew up with his best friend Jeera, a snail without a shell, and they've always protected each other. Kala constructed a set of plated armor to cover Jeera's back and they've been inseparable ever since. They actually took the oath to be a Thinker simultaneously, but as Jeera cannot speak, he never technically became a "Thinker". This is why he is sometimes left behind, and earns no karma to banish. Luckily, snails are already immortal so they can still live alongside one another for eternity.|Thinker Deep Dive: Kala and Jeera}}

Some say Serrano has overwritten the logic of the world in his quest for knowledge and torn the fabric of reality. Others say all of Kainga is in Serrano's mind, just stories he tells himself from his imagination, for how can a blind man read, anyway?|Thinker Deep Dive: Serrano}}

{{BlockQuote|Sumac is the newest Thinker to join the Skyloft. He was tasked with finding 6 relics across the lands: a fossilized skull, a Darkwood branch, a teal pearl, Trunkwood sandals, the royal sash and a seeing stone. After having spent his entire life looking for these items, he was given the impossible task to "build a town on a Crustacean". During the tutorial segment of Kainga, Sumac accidentally awakens a Crustacean granting his acceptance into the Skyloft. After having arrived, he wonders why no others had to go through such a difficult journey to become a Thinker...|Thinker Deep Dive: Sumac}}

Sumac is the first Thinker available to the player upon starting Kainga for the first time. The player takes control of Sumac during the [[Missions#Tutorial|tutorial]] of the game, walking through his final steps in his journey to be elevated to the Skyloft as a Thinker. His starting resources and Feast festival help support a burgeoning village, and the Structure Safety passive makes building placement a bit more forgiving. He otherwise has no other unique features or gameplay quirks to be aware of, making him a very good Thinker for the beginner player.

It is hinted through in-game dialogue that Sumac is able to pierce the fourth wall, and is aware that he is a character in a game played by someone else.
