## Biography

### Season 1

Triangle and Monkey wake up with no memory of anything, and they begin to fight each other. After a building collapses on Triangle, Mecha Godzilla arrives and attacks Monkey, Triangle still alive emerges and sees the Mecha. When Triangle asked Monkey to team up Monkey agrees, albeit reluctantly. They team up destroy it, but the ground cracks and they fall through.

Triangle lands on Monkey to the latter's immediate anger. It is here that their world is turned upside down. They see that they just fell from a glowing white cube, explaining the stark-white background. Monkey finds a device next to their cube, which flashes the green word, MONSTER-VERSE continuously. Turning, they both see dozens of other multicolored cubes- other universes- floating over what looks like a runway, with what looks like a computer set in the middle. Next to a screen displaying TELEPORT SETTING: RANDOM, a radio-like device with a large green button sits, which Triangle grabs. Monkey asks to see it, but Triangle gets mad, claiming that it was his since he found it. Monkey doesn't like this and grabs it from Triangle, but accidentally presses the green button. A blue torpedo of light seems to shoot out from the device's satellite dish, forming into a vacuum portal that sucks them both in.

They land in "Jurassic park" where they meet Rexy the Tyrannosaurus rex. who attempts to confront them but is easily scared off. Triangle then shoves Monkey down a ravine after tricking him into looking down for an axe. Monkey manages to scale the wall just as Triangle finds the remote, and they briefly brawl over the remote again. The fight reveals Gennaro, hiding in the toilet blocks, and Triangle, disgusted that he is a lawyer, promptly eats him. Triangle hurls the remote at Monkey, hitting him in the head, and it rebounds and fires another portal, which they enter.

They reappear in the Transformers, where they fall between the Autobots and Decepticons, who are about to begin conflict. Triangle accidentally crushes the Decepticon, Ravage and Megatron immediately commands the Decepticons to "kill the iguana!" Monkey tries to step away but is attacked by Megatron. The Autobots watch as the Deceptions are absolutely destroyed by the two Kaijus. Megatron transforms into a gun, but since all his forces have been reduced to scrap metal, Monkey is the one who picks him up. However, he accidentally fires a shot at Optimus Prime, causing the *Autobots* to attack the two now as well. Triangle angrily berates him as the two run for cover. Monkey has an idea and snaps the Megatron gun in half and shoves the front end in Triangle's mouth. When Triangle fires his atomic breath, it is concentrated into a high-energy beam that can cut through anything. Monkey doesn't want to portal out again, but reluctantly agrees in order to avoid being attacked by Starscream. A hooded figure overlooks the destruction, only just missing the two's escape.

Soon after end up in the Hobbit Universe where they meet Smaug, who has burnt to ashes Laketown. After arguing, and Monkey sparking the dragon's anger by calling him Smug, they leave Smaug to kill Bard the Bowman.

Soon they end up in "Let There Be Carnage" where Triangle is possessed by Venom while Monkey gets possessed by Carnage. When fighting, Monkey loses his Carnage self and Carnage sticks to Triangle causing him to be possessed by both Carnage and Venom, Monkey then stops this new super-powerful symbiote by using a portal that sucks in both Venom and Carnage which causes Triangle to return to normal. The combined symbiotes then latch onto a Xenomorph, to the presumed woe of everyone in that universe.

    In an unnamed forest universe, the two are ambushed by robotic dog-like creatures and are captured in a box-like force-field. The mysterious hooded figure from before reveals himself and expresses disappointment about how easy they were to catch. He informs them that his employer wants them dead. Triangle has an idea, grabs Monkey, and blasts a hole through the ground. He and Monkey fall into a tunnel system, to the bounty hunter's anger. The hunter wastes no time in following them and immediately begins open fire. Monkey uses one of the robo-dogs as a shield while Triangle makes a portal. To their new enemy's frustration, his prey manages to slip away, portalling into another dimension. His employer contacts him via his mechanical arm brace, detecting the universe leap, and instructs him to wait for them at the biomes and ensure that "there's no home for (Triangle and Monkey) to return to".

Soon they end up in Pacific Rim Universe, and the Jaegers think they are threats and decide to fight them, Triangle and Monkey manage to defeat them by killing the pilots who control the Jaegers. Suddenly, the Kaiju of that universe show up. After a long struggle, they manage to defeat all of the Kaijus.

The next universe they end up in holds a surprise for them- another Godzilla and Kong (from the 1962 King Kong VS Godzilla movie). The two shocked Kaijus attempt to make conversation but are attacked by their doppelgängers. They tumble down a cliffside, and the 1962 Kong attempts to feed him a tree, but Triangle spits it out, poking him in the eye. The fight continues. Monkey dangles from a cliffside, and Triangle grabs his hand, asking "do you trust me?" Monkey, obviously, says "no", and Triangle drops him, before jumping off himself. Triangle manages to open a portal underneath them, escaping. however, the ground breaks from underneath their 1962 counterparts and they too fall into the portal... straight into Legendary's 2021 Godzilla VS Kong.

The four Kaijus tumble into Hong Kong, interrupting Legendary Godzilla and Kong's dramatic fight. The now six bewildered Kaijus stare at each other. Legendary Godzilla punches Monkey, instigating a huge six-way fight. Chaos ensues, and the Kaijus obliterate Hong Kong. It is here where Triangle learns that Godzilla can fly, when 1962 Godzilla fires his atomic breath into the ground, propelling him into the air. Triangle punches Monkey without recognizing him in the pandemonium. When Monkey yells that it is him, Triangle punches him again anyways. The fight lasts the night, and as the sun rises, Triangle stops enjoying the chaos and he and Monkey use the Megatron gun to create an unstoppable atomic beam again, completely leveling all the buildings and causing the other Kaijus to look on in wonderment.

1962 Kong seems to have been killed in the attack, but lightning strikes him, and he is revived again to Triangle's extreme annoyance and Monkey's confusion. The battle resumes, until suddenly a red glaring light envelopes the scene, and Legendary's unstoppable Kaiju-killing weapon emerges- Mecha Godzilla. The robotic death machine steps into the light- only to be immediately overwhelmed by three atomic rays and three incredibly angry gorillas. "Now where were we?" Monkey asks, and the fight continues until Triangle yells out for everyone to stop and manages to pit the Godzillas against the Kongs. Mecha Godzilla awakens, adding to the chaos as he also joins the fight. 1962 Godzilla accidentally hits Legendary Godzilla, who is angered and forgets the truce. Thus, chaos. Triangle had intended this as a distraction, but Monkey doesn't realise and actually wants to fight Triangle, until the latter reveals that he just wanted to distract the others. They sneak away, but are noticed by Legendary Kong, who throws his axe. Monkey decides he won't leave without the axe and attempts to wrench it from the building, but it flies and hits Legendary Kong, probably killing him. A shocked Monkey and Triangle edge away slowly.

1962 Godzilla is killed by Legendary's and thrown down a hole to Hollow Earth. Legendary Godzilla drops a microphone down with it. Triangle and monkey portal away, but unbeknownst to them the Mecha follows them. The two tired monsters finally reach the biomes again. Monkey exclaims that these have been the worst 35 minutes of his life and is happy to have returned. He almost victory dances, but Triangle threatens to rip his tongue out if he does. Suddenly, they notice the robotic dogs owned by the bounty hunter who captured them earlier patrolling the area and realise he must be around. They spot him at the computer set up in the middle of the biomes. He hears them realising they are here, and begins calling out to them, saying they have unfinished business. To Monkey's surprise, Triangle quietly attempts to sneak up on the bounty hunter, whose back is turned, but it turns out their enemy was expecting this, and caught Triangle in an energy trap after he stepped on the trap. Monkey runs in to save him, but the skilled bounty hunter easily beats him.

    An airship full of robotic soldiers lands. They request instructions from the bounty hunter who tells them to wait for his signal and ready the 'rocket troopers'. He seems to have made this hunt somewhat personal and reveals his title to Triangle and Monkey, "The Crimson Hunter", as well as his real name, "Charles Bob Lennard". He becomes annoyed and defensive when the two kaijus snicker at this and tell him to stick with 'Crimson Hunter.' Charles then instructs the soldiers to destroy Triangle and Monkey's biome, to the two's utter horror and to his sadistic amusement as everything the two had ever known falls apart in front of them. Charles revels in the destruction while Triangle swears his revenge.

Charles reveals to the main characters that the biome they just destroyed was a prison, and that it wasn't even the real Monster-Verse. He becomes almost angry that he is the only one to know anything despite not even being present when the events occurred, not yet aware that the kaijus' memories had been wiped intentionally prior to imprisonment. Charles loses his patience and demands they hand over the remote they have been using to universe hop, telling them it's the only thing keeping them alive. When Monkey claims that he is lying to get them to give him the device, Charles promptly shoots him in the shoulder, leaving a bleeding wound. The bounty hunter gives them till the count of three to hand it over but is interrupted when the stowaway Mecha attacks a robotic soldier, giving Monkey a chance to free Triangle.

The Mecha powers down when it sees Triangle and Monkey and allows them to escape, but mercilessly slaughters the robotic soldiers. However, its arm is shot off by Charles and it flees, badly damaged.

    The bounty hunter then enters an airship and quickly pursues an escaping Triangle and Monkey, shooting at them from above, intending to kill them and take the remote. However, the ship is burnt in half by Triangles atomic breath. Charles survives, but one robotic arm is lost in the crash. The other half of the ship knocked both Triangle and Monkey off a cliff.

Monkey crashes into the ocean, and swims ashore where he discovers an unresponsive Triangle. He is distressed when Triangle does not wake, showing that despite their rivalry, he had grown to have a love-hate friendship with Triangle, and doesn’t actually want him to die.

### Season 2

Triangle finally awakens, to Monkeys huge relief, and the ape slaps him in the face angrily for scaring him. When asked about his arm, Monkey tries to pass it off as just a scratch, but eventually admits to being in pain. Realizing the robotic soldiers will be searching for them, try to portal away, but discover that the remote has stopped working. Trying not to panic, they evaluate their options. Just then, an airship from above flies down, inspecting the beach where they had fallen- only to find them gone.

Monkey and Triangle see a blue glow over the horizon. Monkey suggests they think of their other options before following some random light, but realising they have no other options and will be discovered soon if they stay, they head towards it.

When they need to scale a ledge, Monkey takes great pleasure in making Triangle admit he has tiny arms before helping him up. Looking behind them, they see a city radiating blue light, airships patrolling the skies. They enter the town, finding all kinds of civilians of different species walking the streets. They have to hide behind a building when they see robotic soldiers patrolling, and realise this place isn’t safe. They enter a building with a large sign saying ‘Mowcuss’s: saloon and repair.’

They quickly meet the owner of the saloon Mowcuss Melisa. They make quick conversation as Triangle asks where they were, as replies they are in the Concpet’s Domain. Mowcuss asks where they were from as he has never seen them before. Monkey mentions the MonsterVerse as people within the saloon look at them with disbelief as Mowcuss recommends them to go to a booth that wants to meet them. Triangle and Monkey does so as they come face to face with their old ally, Ghidorah.

## Personality

> **Mecha Kong**Now would be a good time for you to surrender- if you were smart.**Monkey**Well then I guess there's something you haven't considered yet: **we're not that smart.**

Monkey is quite impulsive and reckless as Monkey is usually shown to make quick decisions without caution in mind or much thought put into it that can lead him and his friends into trouble and takes very risky options as he makes mistakes quite often and choices that can be a very dangerous and inefficient for himself or for his allies. Monkey is also easily timid at times when fighting certain foes and situations where he is outnumbered or surprised by a creature (harmless or not). Monkey can be very arrogant and egotistical at times as he tries to act as if he’s the best and likes being known as the main character and tries to act tough and fearless.

Monkey also has a soft and loyal side to him as we see that he admits that when he thought Triangle died at the cliff side, he was scared that his only friend died and had no idea what he would do if Triangle truly died. He also saves his friend’s lives (Triangle and Ghidorah) on many occasions and helps them during battles. He was very offended when Triangle was willing to push his only two friends away (Monkey and Ghidorah) to succeed his revenge against Mecha Kong. Monkey also seems to be quite the ladies' man as Triangle mentions that he died twice in two different iterations for the same attractive, blond-haired girl as an insult to Monkey and when Triangle and Monkey swapped bodies when they teleported out of The Backrooms Biome. Monkey was extremely worried that he won't be able to attract human girls with Triangle's body, especially because of Triangle's short arms and tail.

Monkey can be quite childish as he often doesn’t take situations seriously and complains when he’s outsmarted, outperformed, or doesn’t get his way. Monkey is also not the brightest, seen when he doesn't fully understand what Ghidorah means about The Biomes, Concepts, and the Concepts Domain, and is confused as to whether he lives in the Real World or not. When Ichi confirms that they are Concepts and not actually part of the Real world, this leads Monkey into thinking that he is a ghost. Another instance where Monkey asks Ghidorah why he couldn't just use his wings to fly to the fortress, Ghidorah responds by saying they should blend in by using one of their ships to not be caught instead of flying towards the fortress recklessly. Monkey then asks if Ghidorah was doing a trick question on him as he doesn't have the ability to fly like him to which Triangle face palms with frustration towards Monkey's response. It is revealed that he doesn't even understand the meaning of the word "metaphor" during a quick discussion with Shin Godzilla. Monkey is also very sassy and is quite the chatterbox as he often insults Triangle in clever and creative ways and can't seem to keep his mouth shut, even in situations where stealth is crucial.

## Abilities and Skills

### Axe fighting

Monkey shows skill with an axe, able to use it both offensively and defensively. It is his preferred weapon, and he goes as far as to become emotional when presented with two axes, showing his immense appreciation for them.

### Swordsmanship skills

Monkey wields a lightsaber against Darth Vader in part 35. It is shown that he is surprisingly skilled with the weapon as he successfully blocks incoming attacks from Darth Vader with it and keeps the latter on his guard. Even Monkey is surprised at his newfound abilities, as when Triangle asks him how he knows how to properly use a sword, Monkey replies by saying even he thought he should've been killed at that point against the more experienced Darth Vader.

### Jumping

Dubbed the 'Monkey-flip' by Triangle, Monkey is able to leap high over an opponent's head while doing multiple consecutive mid-air flips. The sheer majesty of Monkey as he performs this magnificent spectacle is enough to leave one speechless; even time itself seems to slow for him.

### Punching

Monkey utilizes his strength by punching his opponents. It is his signature attack, as it doesn't require the use of any external weapons and is always useful in a pinch.

### Being thrown

One of Triangle and Monkey's signature attacks; Triangle launches Monkey into the air and at an opponent. This is particularly effective against flying enemies. Monkey shows a large degree of resistance and focus to be able to withstand the heavy impact of crashing into his enemy while also retaining his concentration on the task at hand. This is sometimes dubbed as ‘Aerial Attack’.

### Stealth

Monkey dubs himself 'Master of Stealth' for his ability to occasionally sneak up on an opponent. This often comes in handy when he needs to save Triangle, as it catches his opponents off guard and throws them off. He often takes the opportunity to put his enemy in a headlock at this point.

### Resourcefulness

Monkey is good at finding tools in his environment and ways to use them against his opponent. This is likely something he has picked up due to not having offensive capabilities like his travelling companions.

## Weaknesses

### Lack of offensive capabilities

While Ghidorah and Triangle can both fire beams from their mouths and fly (somewhat), Monkey has to make do with just his strength and any tools he finds.

### Punching Metal

Monkey often attempts to punch metal enemies, resulting in a phenomenon known as 'noodle-arms' (see gallery). He never seems to learn that metal cannot be punched, as he regularly attempts to, and pays painfully as a result.

### Simp

In Triangle's words, King Kong 'died twice simping for the same blonde chick.' Monkey seems to have this weakness, and one of his first fears after swapping bodies with Triangle is that he would no longer be attractive to women now that he is stuck in the latter's body, which in Monkey's mind was unattractive, namely thanks to Triangle's tail and short arms.

### Impulsiveness

Monkey often makes rash decisions that put him at risk. This is often interpreted by others, and even Monkey himself, as stupidity. He is known to instigate arguments with Triangle, even when stealth is crucial, and any disturbances caused could be fatal. However, this impulsiveness can sometimes take the form of quick decision-making, helping Monkey and his companions in a pinch.

## Relationships

### Positive

#### Triangle

> "I thought you had my back."
>
>

Monkey and Triangle can be described as 'frenemies.' They have fierce, almost innate animosity, as despite having no memory they immediately decide they hate the other. They can often be observed creatively insulting and fighting each other during their travels.

It takes a long time, but the two eventually go from hating each other's guts to genuinely caring for on another. When Triangle is unconscious and unresponsive after falling from a cliff, Monkey begins to panic, and slaps Triangle for scaring him once he does wake, showing that he didn't actually want the latter to die. Later, when Triangle doesn't save Monkey from the robotic dogs and pushes him and Ghidorah away in his frantic attempts to revenge against Mecha Kong, Monkey feels hurt by this, as they have always had each other's backs before despite their (mostly) friendly rivalry. Triangle later shows remorse, calling Monkey his friend and regrets pushing him away.

While they still fight regularly, their relationship is greatly improved from the beginning of the series.

#### Ghidorah

Monkey and Ghidorah have a good bond as they were allies who fought for their home at the MonsterVerse biome. Although Ichi seems to be annoyed by Monkey’s behavior and childish nature at times. Ni seems to be on better terms when it comes to relationships with Monkey compared to Ichi as Ni once actually admits he likes Monkey’s idea of naming their ship “Daniel Craig” to which Ichi gives Ni a disappointed look before Ni apologizes for agreeing with the simian.

### Negative

#### Charles Bob Lennard

Monkey and Lennard have a weird relationship. Monkey refuses to forgive Lennard for shooting him in the arm, however, Monkey does believe that he and his allies should’ve have taken his deal. In the end, Monkey greatly dislikes Lennard, but is willing to put that hatred aside for a better cause, like being able to live out his years peacefully.

> **The Crimson Hunter**It's like I said. I just want to talk.**Monkey**Talk shmalk, you shot me in the arm!**The Crimson Hunter**Oh what, you wanted me to make you a little gift basket and apologise?
