Is it a mountain or is it a city? Actually, it’s a bit of both. Built on top of the old city of Mt. Angel, modern Mt. Angel was constructed in the late 2700s by mysterious monks from the Cult of Mice. The mountain-city was made from equally mysterious materials that may or may not be an alien version of LEGO. Standing nearly 30,000 feet tall, the towering construction has twenty-one diverse levels, each with their own function, including commercial, residential, parkland, dancefloor, and pickle-free parking, stretching all the way to the previously inaccessible monastery at its peak.
Unbeknown to the rest of Oregon, the Cult of Mice have been playing Weirdball behind closed doors since the giant owl-men brought the sport to our shores. They even have their own colourful brick stadium that will be opening its doors to the wider world in 3053. Little is known about the Mt. Angel Mice’s tactics, but insiders believe that if they can build a mountain city out of plastic bricks with their minds, then it’s only a matter of “when” rather than “if” they achieve Weirdball success.
Stadium: The mysterious Monastery at the top of Mt. Angel will finally open its doors for the start of the 3053 season. Will there be monks? Definitely. Will there be mice? Probably. The very ordinary people of Mt. Angel will be out in full force to support their team. They love their monks in Mt. Angel. Experts believe they’re a 40,000-strong cult and the Monastery will be rocking. Though hopefully not too much. We wouldn’t want the mountain to topple over.
Mascot: Apollo The Mouse Monk trained his whole life to represent his city. He wears a cape and mask of live mice, and wields a bow (mouse-whisker string) and arrow. The mice and the Mouse Monk share a single mind, so the mouse cape is more like an extension of the monk’s body than a writhing, squeaking, scurrying item of clothing that leaves droppings wherever it goes. In 3059, it was revealed that there are actually several Apollos who have represented the Mice over the years. They frequently assassinate each other but all look exactly the same, so the monks don’t seem to care.
Despite being one of the most decorated teams of the last 7 seasons since they joined the OWL, the monks parted ways with their owner, Diana Dea, prior to the 3060 season, enlisting the halp of Oregon’s most famous monk: Kung Fu Master Sensei Puncheet. With his friendly helper Martag and several Monchichi bodyguards, expect the Way of the Mice to change from their staple BBDD formation in the coming seasons.
