The song explains it better!
The Wall of Goat, "Hive Got an Idea"
The Wall of Goat are recurring characters in the series Kiff. They are an ancient herd of psychic goats who reside on a cliff wall in the Outskorts of Table Town.
Profile[]
The Wall of Goat are a herd of psychic mountain goats who have lived on the wall of a cliff in the Outskorts of Table Town since "the dawn of time". They have supernatural control over the sky surrounding them, which is perpetually dark and stormy, regardless of the time of day. The Wall share a telepathic connection and are often consulted as an oracle by Tabletonians.
Personality[]
The Wall make themselves available to anyone seeking answers or advice regarding any matter. As a telepathically linked hive mind, they think, speak, and act as a single unit at all times. Their telepathic connection also allows them to take control of the mind and body of any individual goat who might venture out on his own. However, a goat can block his connection to the Wall by placing tinfoil over his head.
The Wall have their own theme song explaining who they are, "We Are Goat", which they rehearse every night before going to bed. They always insist on performing the song for their visitors, whether or not said visitors want to hear it. As the Wall and their purpose are already well known to Tabletonians, the song tends to bore visitors.
Their favorite movie is a 1936 film featuring an all-goat cast called The Four Horns of Jungle Island, which they own on VHS.
Relationships[]
Kiff Chatterley and Barry Buns[]
In "Fresh Outta Grandmas", Kiff, Barry, and their friends visit the Wall for advice on how to settle the tie between their competing teams in their collection game Gram Grabs. The Wall advise them that they still have one more "gram" to collect: Lady Lorraine.
The Wall reappear in "Hive Got an Idea", where it is explained that a new goat is born every 100 years, and when he comes of age, he may go to school for a day, then either return to the Wall or disconnect from the Wall's hive mind forever. Kiff and Barry are tasked with chaperoning Little Louis around Table Town Middle School, but the Wall continually disrupt Louis' day by controlling him telepathically. To let Louis experience school for himself, Kiff has Louis wear a tinfoil hat to block his connection to the Wall, while she returns to the Wall disguised as Louis to prevent them from noticing the blocked connection. Louis ultimately decides to leave the Wall and become an airplane designer rather than returning to school.
