The Meebkin gets its name from a greater-than-average affinity for the Meeb critters essential to the specialized processes of the Workshop. Rather than being recruited for attunement, a pair is carefully chosen to perch on either end of a special baton made of woven fibers. Deftly and gymnastically twirling the baton over its head, the Meebkin is able to coax otherworldly groans and gargles out of the mouths of Meebs, but don't worry the critters aren't uncomfortable. Rather the opposite.
