Monkey House, Wheels, Monkey Wrench, Loosening
Professor Andaulphus Berilibus Zaxamite, responsible for the fourth principle of Monkey Mechanics, and alumni of Sheffenmeijer University
Professor Lycurgus Aristides Zanzibar, Author of a myriad of scientific publications including “A Treatise on Viscous Processes of Differential Loosening”, “Sneek modulation in convex polymer chains”, “Loosening as a Reverse Process of Reverse Loosening”, and many more. At 22 years of age, Zanzibar was appointed to the prestigious post of Professor of Sneek Studies at Sheffenmeijer University and received the Zaxamite Medal from Zaxamite himself. He was even given an honorary Rump Factor of 0.5 (of course this held no real legal binding). Unfortunately, later in his life, Zanzibar fell from favor with the Rumps due to revelations that he had attempted in his youth to synthesize monkey and chicken mechanics. In 1904 CP, Zanzibar was stripped of his Rump Factor and incinerated (along with his entire extended family).
Rektoplese Simponius Fallagrade
The Nine Realms of Bellakarth, earliest recorded civilizations in the known universe. The Nine Realms each resided on a separate planet which were home to Pre-Ape peoples (humans believed to be one of these sub-species). The histories of these realms were lost in The Great Doldrum. The Realms were conquered by Rektoplese Simponius Fallagrade circa 12,000 BCP.
The Fruits of Bellakarth, variants of these fruits existed on each of The Nine Realms of Bellakarth. Modern day plantains and bananas are believed to be genetic imitations if these fruits.
