::Initial appearance: An Orangutan with a huge codex under the arm and occasional glasses (basically, see my avatar :p).
::Personality: Ook. (Analytical, circumspect, occasionally playful, demanding, loves eating and reading).

"Ook."

(The codex opens up on its own, pages flicking and stopping on a page with the following text)

"Oh hello there. Didn't notice you at first; I was checking out this aetherflux portal I went through.

Excuse me for using this contraption to socially interact with you; it is an unfortunate necessity in my condition. Apologies in advance for its natural wordiness."

"Ook." ''*flick*''

My name might be a tad complicated for you; and I don't want to monopolize your precious time. Also, reading one's speech is quite exhausting in a long run, especially from a verbose Codex (that's its name). Hence, allow me to give you several key features of mine:"

"Ook." ''*flick*''

- Do not speak ill or do harm to books. Books are the sacred keepers of knowledge; and I am the Sacred Keeper of the Books.

- Do not call me a monkey. Do not call me an ape. Do not play smart with me on that. Seriously. I have access to almost limitless knowledge at will. If you give me a simiosapienphobic slur, you will learn the hard way that "Knowledge is Power" is still technically true when using a book as a blunt weapon.

- Magic. To you, it may be a mere source of power, one of the universe's fundamental laws, or *snorts* an energy that binds every being and the galaxy together.

It is my diet. No, really: I can feel it, sniff it, see it, taste it. Eating it is the fuel my body & mind need to enact my knowledge and proficiency of it.

"Ook." ''*glare* *flick*''

So I may be friendly, accommodating, playful (do not call me monkey); but if there is a magical flux somewhere, I call dibs. Again, "Knowledge is Power.""

"Ook." ''*flick*''

"Pleasure meeting you. I have a good feeling about this."
