Noble Savage

An idea diffused in modern movies and books that primitive and rural people are always peaceful and live in harmony with nature, void of cruelty and greed, before the cruel white man came ruining everything. This has been desmantled by historian many times as native americans (the most used example) engaged in warfare and even genocide on each other long before the europeans arrived.

It's actually just another argument to make the white man feels sorry for being civilized and it's supposed to make us believe that non-white people are peaceful by nature.
"Why do you call native americans noble savages?"
"Because they were a peaceful people that lived in harmony with the earth and the animals. America was a paradise before the europeans arrived!"
"Actually no. It has been documented that the tribes were constantly at war with each other and engaged in torture, genocide and slavery. Get that Avatar-bullshit notion out of your head!"

Nobby

A 'Nobby' is a very special and uncommon individual who frequently performs inebriated sexual acts upon unsuspecting victims.

The call of the wild Nobby is a low growl becoming a screach of the phrase 'Hiya'. The last syllable is elongated to add stress to the cry.

Nobby's can superbly camouflage themselves to fit into their surroundings without being spotted by potential victims.

The more common Thomson variety can be seen in its natural squalid environment at the top most location of habitable areas with red fur and apparent tiger stripes. Despite looking cute and cuddly, this breed is the most lethal of all, taking full advantage of its appearence to lure in prey.

It is advised never to go near a wild Nobby. Trained Nobby's should also be approached with caution making sure to steer clear of the mouth area.
The Thomson Variety of Nobby is the only recorded species, despite strong folklore surround the existence of others.
