| − | '''The gaiba''' is a hobbit who spends his days tied to a tree, blood dripping in the water through cuts on his arms and legs. On early summer the gaiba is submerged in the water up to his neck, letting [[skith]] spawn suckle on him. The role of gaiba is usually given to a sick, malformed, or other ways less productive Esuli. At times of leisure, the gaiba is treated better than any other Esuli. He is fed, cared for and pleasured by two Esuli of his choice. Such a caretaker is called a gaisa. After a year the gaiba is allowed to abandon his post, or he may choose to do his duty for another year. Most gaiba don't survive for two years, but some find the lifestyle worth the gamble.
