Poets

There are several poets in Foon:

• Spurt the Elder, the greatest chronicler of Foon of our time
• Two-Pack, who carried two backpacks with many scrolls inside them. Rumors abound that he still lives
• Man of Many Methods, who blew people's minds with his many methods of poecy
• Young Clean Guy Without A Father
• The Beastly Boys, three gentlemen from the Big Apple who finish each others' lines in a high-pitched yelling rhyming
• The Clan of Woo-Tongues, who end every poem with "woo"
• De La Soulwalkers
• Tribe Called Quest, who banded together with De La Soulwalkers to try and defeat the Dark Lord

Tradition

• There is a poetry rivalry between East Foon and West Foon, called a "flaming cauldron of rivalry" by Spurt the Elder.
• Self-celebration is a common theme of Foonish poetry, often done to pleasure one's own self than an audience. Many young poets will simply say a few words and end the poem prematurely.
• There is a great tradition of pouring out alcohol to remember the poets that have gone before you.
