Monkey Companion
Type	Companion Organic Item
Cost	70 rupees

A monkey is a somewhat common companion, which normally grows no larger than a Hylian child. Compared to most animals, a trained monkey tends to be remarkable intelligent, and is capable of understanding most if not all of its owners' words. Furthermore, it is among one of the only animals which is capable of grasping objects like the more intelligent races can, making it a particularly valuable ally.

Normally, this treasure represents a monkey of a small variety, which has been trained to follow the user's commands.

As an Unusual Character

A monkey can be made into an unusual character. Such a character begins with 70 rupees less than normal. A monkey character may begin with any one Racial Perk appropriate to its species, even if the chosen perk would normally occupy more than one "perk slot." A monkey's starting PWC is 1/1/2, and it has 1 less point than normal with which to increase its starting PWC score.

Although monkeys are particularly intelligent animals, they cannot speak words. A monkey can, however, gain a treasure like Language of Fauna to be able to communicate with Hylians and other races.

Unlike most companions, a monkey is able to obtain most treasures available to player-character races.
