   The National Roarball League (NRL), also known as Regionally Organized Animal Roarball (ROAR), is the premier professional roarball league in the GOAT universe. It is a global competition consisting of six elite teams, each representing a different biome. Every arena features unique, evolving terrains and obstacles that heavily influence gameplay and give massive homecourt advantage.

   The NRL serves as the main governing body of the sport. It handles team registrations, player eligibility, scheduling, rule enforcement, broadcasts, and league-wide promotions.

   Confirmed Teams: • Vineland Thorns (main protagonist team) • Lava Coast Magma (major rivals, featuring Mane Attraction and Grizz) • Sunken City Shadows (featuring Rosette, Daskas, and Kouyate) • Arctic Shivers (featuring Propp) • Peak City Tectonics • Scorch Valley Sandstorm

   Roarball Overview: Roarball is a high-intensity, physical sport that mixes elements of basketball and soccer with animal abilities. Players use roaring for communication and coordination. Each species brings unique strengths (speed, strength, agility, reach, etc.). Arenas vary wildly — from frozen ice courts to volcanic shifting terrain — forcing teams to constantly adapt.

   The league follows a traditional professional structure: regular season, standings, playoffs, and a final championship.

    Personality: Dennis is neurotic, high-strung, and intensely dedicated — a classic “drill sergeant” type with a frantic edge that sometimes borders on a mid-life crisis.

13. #13Florence Eversonselective

    Keys: Florence Everson, Flo, Flo Everson, team owner, warthog

    Florence "Flo" Everson is the former owner of the Vineland Thorns roarball team. She is a robust, well-dressed warthog with a commanding presence.

    Physical Appearance: Flo has blonde hair, prominent tusks, and wears heavy makeup (pink lipstick, eyeshadow, and eyeliner). She is often seen in a green pantsuit with a red lanyard and heels, accessorized with gold jewelry. She strongly dislikes being in poorer parts of town where she is mocked as “pig.”

    Personality: On the surface, Flo acts cheerful and supportive of the team. In reality, she is narcissistic, manipulative, greedy, and self-serving. She cares little about the players and is primarily motivated by personal profit. She has low patience for losing and quickly abandons the team when she sees an opportunity to cash out.

    Biography & Role: Flo signs Will Harris to the Thorns after his viral video, despite Jett’s objections. She initially appears to support the team but later reveals her true nature by secretly selling the Thorns to Sunken City after they start winning — believing the players (especially Jett) are “washed up.” She even insults Jett behind her back.

    Her plan backfires when Modo Olachenko wins ownership of the team from the buyer in a game of UNO. The Thorns remain in Vineland under new ownership, foiling Flo’s greedy scheme. She shows visible discomfort and disdain toward Modo, who ironically becomes the new owner.
