The Gummi bears are the last remnants of a once-great civilization of Gummis that fled the land centuries ago when humans, jealous of the advancements and magical skills of the Gummi Bears, forced the species into exile. Now regarded by most of humankind as fairytales, 6 Gummi Bears live in the vast subterranean warren of Gummi Glen in the kingdom of Dunwyn. The Gummis' were discovered by a human boy named Cavin who happened to have a Gummi Medallion. After he accidentally enters the colony's underground home of Gummi Glen, they captured and interrogated the boy as to how he gained the medallion. During the questioning, Cavin escaped, but refused to cause any harm and attempts to befriend the reclusive bears. Impressed by this civilized behavior, they made him swear to keep their confidence and make him a privileged friend of the colony. Later, the medallion magically unlocked the colony's Great Book of Gummi, an essential reference guide to the forgotten knowledge of the Gummi Bears. Inspired by its writings, the colony resolved to rediscover their heritage and help Dunwyn defend against evil.
The main source of this evil was Duke Sigmund Igthorn, a renegade noble and his army of ogres from the neighboring province of Drekmore who aimed to conquer Dunwyn. Unfortunately, in stopping Igthorn's attempt to bombard his enemies with a grand catapult, the duke learned of the existence of the Gummi Bears and would stop at nothing to discover and exploit their secrets to become invincible. Chief among his primary goals was to gain a reliable supply of the Gummi Bears' vital strategic substance, Gummiberry Juice, a magic potion that endows the Gummis with bouncing abilities, but gifts humans (or ogres) with momentary super-strength as well as other numerous uses.
In addition to combating Igthorn's ambition, the Gummis regularly encountered other evil humans and magical beings ranging from wizards to gods, all the while attempting to hide their existence from the world at large. One of the main mysteries is the legend of the ancient Gummis, who are now scattered all across the world, but who have left advanced technology behind them.
But for centuries, no one has encountered the elusive Gummi Bears and on this day, we do not know if they still remain...
