Oddworld Wiki

Hi! Welcome to the Oddworld Fandom Wiki!

Recently OWI has began to publish posts on their Twitter citing articles from this site, along with content that heavily implies that the wiki is in some way official or sanctioned.

We'd like to dispel this rumor now: The Fandom Wiki is 100% community run and has in fact been long plagued by information of dubious validity, despite the valiant efforts of its editors (whose job we really appreciate, keep up the good fight!). For this reason, we'd like to ask our readers to take everything here with a great chunk of salt, especially when it comes to content without valid citations.

If you wish to fight against misinformation, you're encouraged to contribute high-quality content to the wiki—that is content that's propped up by a trusted source (examples include: Oddworld.com, Magog on the March, or The Oddworld Library) and contain no headcanons, theorizing, or any further content not directly coming from Oddworld Inhabitants.

Thank you for your attention and understanding! Happy reading and editing!

Sekto Springs Dam was a large, industrial dam situated on the Mongo River that first appeared in Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath.

Sekto Springs Bottled Water ad.

Sekto Springs Dam was a large, industrial dam situated on the northern end of the Mongo River. The dam acted as both a hydroelectric power generator, a water-bottling facility, and the direct headquarters for Sekto Springs Bottled Water Company. The company itself, being led by Mr. Sekto, an Oktigi robber baron who personally owned all of the Mongo River. Sekto's Dam served two purposes: to harvest river water for re-sale as bottled spring water and to keep the once lush Mongo River Valley dry. With the river greatly receded, land open for Clakker settlement increased, allowing for the creation of towns like Buzzarton and Gizzard Gulch.

This industrial development was all at the cost of the native Grubb tribes, who not only depended on the river as a source of food, but also greatly revered and worshiped it.

To better decrease the odds of potential Grubb resistance, Sekto would employ the aid of a heavily armed Wolvark militia to help gaurd the dam, patrol the various smaller dams that dotted the Mongo Valley, and conduct strategic attacks on Grubb settlements as a way to expand his territory. It was presumed decades of violent altercations between the Grubb people and Sektos forces that led to the destruction of numerous Grubb settlements and the near extinction of the Steef, a species that has all but vanished from the Mongo River Valley.

The bursting of the dam.

The long reign of Sekto Springs Dam would finally come to an end when the Stranger (one of the last surviving Steef in Mudos), along with and army of Grubb rebels, launched a full scale assault to push back Wolvark forces, dethrone Sekto, and free the water once and for all. As a result of the Dams destruction, some Clakker towns were flooded, including Gizzard Gulch, Buzzarton, and possibly New Yolk City. Sekto however, was still very much alive as he was last seen swimming down the now free Mongo River.
