KOGA
General
Koga was, without a doubt, the true king of the jungle. Hailing from the Escrimir, he knew jungle more than most know their own city, as well as all of the critters that called the jungle home. And, most certainly, he got ALL the bananas. Life was good for Koga, as he had grown to such immense strength that he remained unchallenged. It was perhaps this reason, or his self-imposed duty to protect his jungle, that the strange flute music of Grimulfr was directed his way one day. Koga, doing what Koga does and skittering along the tree tops doing Ape stuff, caught the faint endings to some ballad of Grimulfr. Curious, he immediately changed his course and tracked down the source of the music. The meeting of the two was anything but an accident, though. Grimulfr explained to Koga that he was to take up the cause of protecting not just his jungle, now, but Aabahran in its entirety. He informed Koga that he would empower him to do so, to ensure that the Old Ways were not forgotten, and encouraged him to use his strength to further Gaia's will and imposition in reclaiming what was rightfully hers. Koga, seeing this as an opportunity to further prove his dominance as the true Prime Ape, as well as seeming as the 'right thing' to do, humbly accepted Grimulfr's charge. Grimulfr informed Koga that the world was vast, and that he would encounter horrors that he would never have imagined. With this knowledge, Grimulfr empowered Koga with the strength of an immortal, equipped him with an enchanted club, and instilled within him a furthered sense of duty and love for Nature. Thus, Koga the Prime Ape was introduced into the rest of the world.
