==Description==
They collect unwanted trinkets and those things that many consider garbage, and then recycle them and re-purpose, trying to repair the world. They offer revenge to things that have been replaced or made obsolete, reforging them until they can overcome what has replaced them.They have lots of Names, some they collected from the lost Hours, and some of them have been discarded by their Hours. They collect other Hours' forms that they no longer use, too. The lost and abandoned things always eventually end up in their domain, the Garbage City of Mokattam, sooner or later, with help or by chance. They accept The Chiffonnier accepts everyone and everything. Very rarely, and quite incomprehensibly to the Zabbaleen themselves, there are those who leave ''them''. Such lost ones are welcome to return, and would only require a little bit of tinkering to be fixed. Otherwise, the Zabbaleen search Bone-Grubber searches for those with fiery fervour and try tries bringing them back; ''clearly'', the reshaping process was faulty, and they need fixing again.
===History===
An Egypt-like country was destroyed by a rival empire, based on Venice. The Zabbaleen arose from the wishes of the people to fix what was broken, from their need for a purpose. The Hour salvaged the big part of an entire History to make a new one, where the country has never been defeated, and prospered. Their work was almost done when the Histories started clashing and dividing: six, twelve, four, two. The Zabbaleen's History was once again bashed to pieces and dispersed, but with that calamity came all the other Histories, with their people, things and places that were now lost and without purpose. Thus, the Zabbaleen expanded their goals. The City of Mokattam, it seems, is all that is left from the Zabbaleen's History, apart from an odd artifact here and there.
===Appearance===
The Zabbaleen have many forms, some of which they have re-purposed to fit their needs once they received them from other Hours.
Their main form, however, is an amalgamation of things the Zabbaleen are working on, things they gathered recently, their own Names and Long, and whatnot. It is covered by fabric, with many limbs poking out from beneath, and it might associate someone with a scarab beetle, which are another one of the ZabbaleenChiffonnier's symbols. They can send the Names and Long out to gather things, or serve as envoys, etc. Another symbol are the raccoons, and some speculate that they were created by the Zabbaleen for some strange goal.
===Principles===
==Worship==
The Zabbaleen are worshiped by many small cults, and most of them consist of people who are lost in any shape or form, or people who gather things themselves: auctioneers, antiquarians, traders of weird artifacts, rag-and-bone men...
===Cult===
The Castaways, the Lost, the Misplaced. They have many names, like their patron Hour.

====The Factotum====
The Factotum, more informally known as the ‘the All-In-One’, ‘the Longest’, and ‘the False Name’, is an hourless Name serving under the Zabbaleen.
The moment passed, and the surviving Hours moved quick to correct these mistakes, but some errors are deeper seated than others, and so the Factotum remains.

==Locations==
====The Ziggurat Reversed====
One of the Zabbaleen's most monumental landmarks. It comes from their original History, and is probably one of the rare things that are readily recognisable as coming from there. It looks like a pyramid that has been planted upside-down into the Mansus-sands, tilted slightly to the side. No one knows its purpose, yet. It is being upgraded constantly at any given moment.
====The Ziggurat ReversedGarbage City of Mokattam====One Remnants of the empire of Egypt, surrounding the Ziggurat.
