“First Dawnservant of Tuliyollal
The foremost feature of his striking appearance, Gulool Ja Ja's two heads are a characteristic unique to the Mamool Ja's "blessed siblings"-rare individuals born of a union between the brown-scaled Hoobigo and the blue-scaled Boonewa.These two-headed marvels inherit both the Hoobigo's robust strength and the Boonewa's arcane affinity, maturing into warriors of unrivaled martial prowess. The Mamool Ja have previously sought to force this miracle, desiring advantage in their historical conflict against the Xbr'aal, but the commingling of the Hoobigo and Boonewa lines was fraught with complications: for every healthy blessed sibling born, a hundred infants failed to survive.
Before Gulool Ja Ja's feet, too, were set firmly on the path of war, he was fortunate to encounter the Eorzean explorer, Ketenramm. The friendship he forged with the outsider opened his eyes to the world beyond the forest, encouraging him to depart Mamook and its restrictive traditions. He traveled far and wide across the lands of Tural, meeting its diverse races and cultivating new companions along the way. His was a tale of unprecedented adventures, which culminated in the defeat and imprisonment of Valigarmanda, the Skyruin.
Following these accomplishments, Gulool Ja Ja returned to Yak T'el with his comrades in tow, whereupon they challenged the warring Mamool Ja and Xbr'aal forces. The two-head's fellowship thoroughly humbled both armies, leading to a cessation of hostilities and a lasting peace.
Word of Valigarmanda's defeat and the end of the Yak T'el war spread swiftly to every corner of the continent. The philosophy of cooperation espoused by Gulool Ja Ja begat a rising tide of like-minded sentiment, paving the way for the foundation of Tuliyollal and elevating him to the position of "Dawnservant." As the new nation's ruler, his bold and ebullient right head would lead their armies as the Vow of Resolve, whilst his wise and benevolent left head would govern their myriad peoples as the Vow of Reason. Under this balanced leadership did he henceforth guide the fledgling federation into a state of great prosperity.
As a two-headed Mamool Ja, Gulool Ja Ja was thought incapable of siring children. Some decades after his ascension to the throne, however, the Dawnservant was blessed with the arrival of a son: Zoraal Ja. And as if precipitated by this unprecedented event, Gulool Ja Ja went on to adopt the orphaned Koana and Wuk Lamat, one promptly after the other. With the royal family thus expanded, the Dawnservant turned his hand to raising his heirs the First, Second, and Third Promises.
Yet even the greatest of potentates cannot outrun old age forever. Unwilling to allow his inevitable passing to plunge the nation into chaos, Gulool Ja Ja took inspiration from the old ways of Mamook to devise a rite of succession. He watched over Wuk Lamat and Koana as they became joint rulers of Tuliyollal, and it was during the ascension ceremony that he confirmed their suspicions: the constantly slumbering Head of Reason had passed quietly from this world some three years before.
Gulool Ja Ja's saga came to a tragic end when soldiers of Alexandria later attacked the capital. The former Dawnservant faced off against the invasion force's commander-his own son, Zoraal Ja in single combat, seemingly defeating the treacherous Promise. Using regulator technology, however, Zoraal Ja arose stronger than before and slew his father in cold blood.
Gulool Ja Ja is a Mamool Ja.
