Quippian

Quippian refers to a hypothetical inhabitant of the fictional planet Quippia, a world often used in science fiction or fantasy settings. The term is typically employed in world-building exercises, speculative fiction, and tabletop role-playing games. Specific characteristics of Quippians, such as their physiology, culture, technology, and history, are entirely dependent on the author's or game designer's imagination. There is no established canon or universally accepted definition of what constitutes a Quippian beyond simply being a native of Quippia. The term is therefore highly flexible and open to interpretation.

The word itself likely derives from a combination of a fanciful-sounding root ("Quipp-") and the common suffix "-ian," used to denote residency or origin. Because Quippia is a fictional location, the term "Quippian" is similarly fictional and lacks any real-world anthropological or geographic basis. Its use is generally confined to contexts where world-building and imaginative storytelling are central.
