Category:Hoop-heads

"Hoop-heads" refers to any character who is a child of Ottoborg.

Canonically, there are seven known Hoop-heads: Hypen Nupen, Aloh Al, Derradious Hapsicom (also known as Creeker), Petri Alfonso, Willie Trombone, Hondo, and Ed. Of these, only one of them appeared in the Neverhood games: Willie Trombone, the "fool above all fools." This may be partially because most of the hoop-heads died horrible deaths long before the events of the Neverhood.

Oddly, though the name has been adapted by most of the fanbase to describe Willie and his brothers, it is only used once in-game (by Willie). It is possible Willie was simply referring to the fact that he had a hoop on his head, and was not referring to his species at all.
