Legend has it that King Wamba’s rule was brought to an untimely end when his enemy shaved his head.
Meet Wamba, the 7th-century king of the Visigoths, whose reign is shrouded in a peculiar legend about his tonsured hair. From triumphs to turmoil in Visigothic Spain, Wamba faced internal strife and external threats, including rebellions and incursions.
But the legend of his tonsure—a bizarre twist rooted in Gothic law—allegedly sealed his fate as king.
Discover the fascinating intersection of law, tradition, and superstition in this curious footnote of ancient governance.

Galactik Football is a story about a futuristic football team - the Snow Kids. They play for their planet Akillian and try to win the Galactik Football Cup with the help of the mysterious energy The Flux. For this prestigious reward they will have to fight against the teams: Wambad, Shadows, Pirates, Technoids, Rykers and many others. Watch this amazing adventure on TV Ultra!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
D'Jok is a fantastic player of Galactik Football. His wish is to become the main attacker of the akillian team. His main asset is unbelievable strength. The flux is going to strengthen this advantage and make sure that his shot reached heights which Galactik Football hasn't yet seen. In the start he will struggle to control this unbelievable strength, but when he gets a hold of it,he will be recruited(?) by all the main GF clubs
Because D'jok doesn't know anything about his past (Maya, the woman who adopted him promised the boy's real mother that she would never tell him the truth), he came to the conclusion that his future is miraculous. This belief makes him different and gives him an unusual charisma. However, this also makes him very independent, so doesn't have a single friend, aside from Micro-ice. D'jok's problems with communication are especially obvious when it comes to Rocket, the team's captain. As time passes, D'jok sees and treasures Rocket's worth.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rocket is an amazingly good passer and his passes are perfectly precise. This preciseness is useful not only in passing, but is also a fantastic advantage in free kicks. Unlike D'jok who has a strong shot, Rocket is more subtle and his use of the flux is seen through, thus unseen in football, controlling of the trajectory of the ball: an incredible backwards shot and in zigzag
Rocket is Aarch's nephew and a big fan of his uncle as a GF player. However, Rocket's father cannot forgive him because he didn't stay on Akillian after the glaciation. From the moment he joins school, Rocket won't rest until he proves to his father that he's up to the task. That's why he constantly puts pressure on himself. That uprightness of his irritates others in the start. But Rocket will gradually learn how to guide others: he will earn his spot on the field and become the captain of the Snow Kids
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On the GF field Tia is very skilled in avoiding opponents. Her play with the help of the flux will undergo an incredible transformation. Her dribbling will become real acrobatics. She can jump multiple metres in the air, with the ball on her leg, before she shoots. Because she masters the flux earlier than the others, she will be the first player to be targeted by the other teams. Tia's biggest wish is to explore the galaxy and meet other people. That's why, when opportunity knocked on her door, Tia immediately accepted the adventure named Galactik Football.
However, her wishes aren't fulfilled easily because of her paralyzing shyness. This contradiction in her behavior is clearly shown in her love of filming: she can't be away from her holo-camera. She will need time to open up to the other Snow Kids, but the moment she does that, she will show a lot of warmth, especially when diplomatically solving problems with her coplayers.
Tumblr media
They gave Ahito the nickname "the sleeping goal". It often looks like he's sleeping, leaning on the goal post, but in a second he can jump and and stop the ball, to everyone's suprise, before he sits back down like nothing happened. Ahito is a fantastic goalman, even if his head's in the clouds
Tumblr media
On the planet Akillian 15 years earlier there was a big explosion. The consequences were catastrophic: the temperature dropped so much that everything on the planet began to freeze. Giant snowstorms started which destroyed a part of the main town/city, Arkadia, and life there became impossible. Today this ghostly town serves as protection from the icy winds that ravage the planet.
The Shadows have humanoid bodies which under the influence of the flux become partly gaseous. With these bodies they skillfully control the ball. Masterful control of the flux and their experience in the past wars make them one of the most frightening groups in the Flux society
The name "pirates" describes a group of people(races?) and planets in the nebulae Shiloe. They are located on the edge of the Zaelion galaxy and outside of the reach of the jurisdiction and control of the Flux society. Its inhabitants are of varied background. Those are often communities who ran from the wars and mixed with the local people. That's how mixed mutant races came to be. Humanoids are the majority. The nebulae Shiloe is organized as a confederation of guilds(?) which allows a lot of freedom to it's members. This chaotic region is a shelter for all outlaws, traitors(?) and the self-interested of that galaxy, and that's why they got their name: Pirates
Technoid is a big commercial and technological collective. In the past years they "ate" their competition and became the dominant political and economical power on a lot if planets where they use (negative) the natural resources. Technoid is run by a group of administrators, of which the most influential is Bleylock.
Rykers are mutants who were forced to adapt to the harsh conditions of their planet Unadar, which is very industrially polluted. Bio-mechanic humanoid hybrids, the rykers show endurance, agility and aggressiveness.
Wambas are a peaceful and wise race. They love to play and that's where their passion for galactik football comes from. They are experienced, fast, and have a good, sometimes cynical, sense of humor. Even if they are uninterested in technology, they developed their own unique science in harmony with the nature of their planet Wamba, which is covered in jungles and forests.
-Genesis stadium is a gigantic spaceship which was created by the League for the main competition in galactik football which is transmitted throughout the entire galaxy. The stadium is in the centre of the spaceship, in which there is also an entire town/city which serves to host teams and their helpers, as well as a couple thousands of fierce fans. All players of galactik football dream of playing in the main stadium one day and hearing the public shouting their name. Likewise it's the dream of every person in the galaxy to save enough money to be able to spwnd a vacation at the Genesis stadium and watch the GF finale live! Genesis stadium has 24 public astro-ports which can host 500,000 people daily, and 88 private landing fields which are open 24 hours a day. 6 interconnected control towers continuously monitor traffic around Genesis. The circular stadium can host 800,000 people. On the giant monitor the match is shown for the viewers who are sitting far from the field, so nobody misses even a second of play. Genesis stadium has absolutely everything - giant amusement parks, one-day daycares for kids, camp of settlements, even a forest with a lake. There sre hundreds of hotels and every guest enjoys the biggest comfort in the entire galaxy.

The Flux will increase his resilience and acrobatic skills to an enviable level. Ahito is calm, he never gets angry. Under the excuse of having to meditate, he often falls asleep wherever he is. In fact, he spends most of his time sleeping. Despite that, he is one of the most dynamic players on the field and he is a top megnetboard driver
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The hard-working Mei will play in defense, where she can show off her attacking abilities. There is no equal to her in the ability to take the ball away from the opponent while they are handling it. However, this defensive position is not particularly exciting for her. She dreams of the day when she will move to attack, because she considers that position to be prestigious. That's why she will do everything to get to it
Mei's mother pressures her to be the best and most beautiful. As a result Mei is extremely confident. She is very ambitious and her clothes are always impeccable. She acts like a star and nothing will stop her on her way. Will Mei be able to break away from her mother and become a little more... human?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Thran is extremely sharp and tenacious in defense, and his strongest asset is that he never lets his opponent go. Thran, who is very rational, does not understand the Flux or how it works, but tries to adapt to it. Thanks to the Flux, Thran gradually develops quick reflexes and intuition, which he mainly uses when his brother falls asleep on the goal.
Lively and inquisitive by nature, Thran becomes even more lively when he starts talking about systems and inventions. He often finds a solution thanks to his knowledge of technology. Thran is very diligent and interested in trainings. He enjoys researching how Clamp's machines work. He is fascinated by statistics and can draw a large number of players from memory, as well as recall their play.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Micro-Ice's game reflects his lifestyle. He developed incredible speed, now he just needs to remember to take the ball with him. He had a bad habit of making fun of opponents on the field, which always led to conflicts during the game. He will have the hardest time of all to accept the Flux in himself. Due to its timid nature, it will be difficult for him to bear the change in his body. However, once he's mastered it, he'll be full of enthusiasm and faster than most players on other teams. Micro-Ice is the funniest member of our little group.
A bit cocky but well-intentioned, he's like a school clown of Aarch college who relieves stressful situations. He learned to get by in life on his own with various tactics... and frequent chatter! Once he starts babbling, it's hard to stop him, which gets him into awkward situations at the best of times. His lack of attention makes it difficult for him to embrace the discipline of teamwork, but his adventures in galactik football will give him a great opportunity to grow up…

MARK THE STICKERS THAT YOU COLLECTED!
WHOO THAT'S ALL! idk if the picture order is messed up, but u can see the page numbers so it doesn't really matter (the pages are supposed to be SPORT -> LIFESTYLE and are translated as such)
Sorry these aren't scanned but i don't own a scanner and can't go anywhere for one so if you want a closeup or better quality of something just ask and I'll post a better pic of it for u :3
Also theres a lot of grammar and spelling mistakes here which i fixed for easier reading (like misspelling the literal series name ...) so keep that in mind
ALSO!!! The pirates section gives weight to my headcanon that most of the Pirates (team) aren't fully human. I knew they were too tall !!! Those bitches are part alien under those masks and i KNOW IT!!!

“For far too long we have been seduced into walking a path that did not lead us to ourselves. For far too long we have said yes when we wanted to say no. And for far too long we have said no when we desperately wanted to say yes. . . . When we don't listen to our intuition, we abandon our souls. And we abandon our souls because we are afraid if we don't, others will abandon us.”  ―Terry Tempest Williams
