6.1 The Calculars
Where the math wizards of the land roam free
Deep in the heart of the Calculator Mountains, the Calculars reside, a tribe of individuals blessed with an uncanny ability to reduce even the most complex of equations to mere simplicity. Their lair, a fortress of steel and circuitry, hums with the soft whir of calculating machinery.
The Calculars are a reclusive folk, preferring the company of numbers over that of people. They communicate in a language of ones and zeros, and their social hierarchy is determined by the speed and accuracy of their calculations. The elder Calculars are revered for their ability to solve the most intricate of mathematical conundrums, while the younglings learn the ancient art of calculation from their elders.
But beware, traveler, for the Calculars are not to be trifled with. Their love of numbers can be all-consuming, and those who wander too close to their lair may find themselves lost in a sea of ones and zeros. Or, if you're particularly unlucky, you may be forced to participate in a game of "Guess the Calculus Problem" - a test of your mathematical mettle that few dare to take on.
Notable Calculars
The Great Integer, a Calcular renowned for solving the legendary "3X + 5 = 11" problem in record time.
The Mathematical Mastermind, a Calcular feared for her ability to calculate pi to an astonishing 50 decimal places.
