Quale

Biography

Quale is the leader of the Qu tribe that inhabits the marshes around Gaia. Despite there being no clear connection for traveling between the marshes, Quale can be encountered at any of them by participating in Quina's frog-catching minigame. Quale is responsible for Quina's journey around the world in search of the most delicious food that s/he can find.

Quale, in the past, was rejected by Quan, who was some kind of wise elder in the Qu tribe. It is quite possible that Quan was exiled by Quale once Quale became the leader, or that Quale was forced into becoming the leader once Quan left. In any case, the two Qu did not like each other.
