Sumo

About
Suro are strange creatures that sometimes pop in The Continent when they slip from another dimension through "Gates" that occasionally appear at random through mysterious means.

They look like rounded fat sumo-wrestlers with a serious expression and they all have the same hairstyle. Their most notable difference among each other is the colour of the belt they wear in their bellies, which helps distinguish different types. The most commonly seen have Blue, Red and Green belts. They're an extremely homogeneous race, since even among different types they all seem to be extremely similar in personality and appearance. They appear to be of a ceramic material or something resembling, though much sturdier.



They are an extremely self-centered and annoying species, standing in a particular spot for hours or even days without moving an inch and without caring if they are blocking a path that someone else wants to take. If asked nicely, sometimes they might move, but only if they are fond of the one asking them. They are a real pain for adventurers in dungeons and other such areas since they tend to block paths on a whim. If left alone, how long it could take for them to move is impossible to predict, as they can stand still for an egregious amount of time.

Sumo are apparently immune to regular attacks performed by those from The Continent, since conventional weaponry and magic attacks leave no scratch in them. The only way to kill them is by using a special item called "Piko Hammer", which can be used to smash the Sumo to pieces. When they die they shout "Uooohh, dosukoi!". Different Sumo have different properties, so there are different Piko Hammers made for Red, Green and Blue Sumos. They are also noted for making a very peculiar sound when a Piko Hammer is used to shatter them. This sound gets a strangely different array of reactions from people. Some people love this sound so much that they dedicate their lives to the craft of Piko Hammers, while for others it produces a horrible nauseating feeling upon hearing the strange sound they make.

Sumo that stand still for too long (possibly years) will petrify and die. When in this state, they are even more durable and practically unbreakable. Research has revealed that, when they reach this form, they are 3.77 times harder than Super Alloy Z, the sturdiest material known on the continent. Standard Piko Hammers are useless on them and no one has managed to produce one capable of breaking one, essentially making them unbreakable walls that will stay on that spot forever.
