Full Name: Lord Montgomery Alexander Fiske
Nickname(s): Monkey Fist, Monty
Gender: Male
Birthday: February 5
Age: 40
Good or Evil?: Evil
Family: Lord Rupert and Lady Elizabeth Fiske (deceased). Considers his manservant, Bates, and monkey ninjas more of a family than them anyways.
Hair: Dark
Eyes: Blue-grey
Skin Tone: naturally fair, but tanned.
General Appearance: Well built and muscular, Monkey Fist would be a handsome man. He has all the qualities one associates with attractiveness: power, gorgeous eyes, an accent to die for, a dashing figure, and (of course) wealth. The only things keeping Monty off the “World’s Most Eligible Bachelor” list are his hands and feet, which are covered in coarse, black, monkey hair. Not only are they covered in hair, but the skin is tough, leathery, and… well… Monkey. He even has opposable toes. Over time, Monty’s good looks have diminished to show his devil-may-care attitude towards him. Still. He is not a slob about how he looks. His large canines gleam from being brushed and his body is in tip-top shape.
Personality: There are two distinct personalities that Monty/Monkey Fist has. The first is charming, suave, and debonair. Poised, intelligent, witty, versatile and independent, this is Monty and he always gives off the air of being in total control and a most gracious host. Lover of fine things (and fine women), this is the Monty that the world knew since he became a face in regular British society many years ago. But that side of Monty is only sparingly used or seen. More often in recent years, Monty has been obsessive, manipulative, egotistical, reckless, and selfish. His goal of becoming the Ultimate Monkey Master clouds his vision with some frequency and brings out a feral desperation within him to do whatever it takes to get what he wants. At any costs. The median between these two is seen even less than either Monty Fiske or Monkey Fist, but when balanced, Monty is poised, witty, zealous… and a very capable opponent.
Weaknesses
His goal of becoming the Ultimate Mystical Monkey Master
His grudge against Ron Stoppable
Hot-headedness.
Power-lust.
History: Born to Lord and Lady Fiske at the tail end of the Year of the Monkey, Montgomery Fiske was raised to be the perfect gentleman… by a series of nannies, governesses, and books. His mother died giving birth to him and his father was not a hands on sort of man. His father’s mantra was “Read. You’ll learn more that way, Montgomery. And the more you know, the better off you’ll be.” But Montgomery (or Monty, as he liked to be called), for all the studiousness he adopted from his father, preferred to learn things hands on. He attended Oxford University at a remarkably young age and spent his first summer after college travelling in Africa with several world renowned archeologists, anthropologists and a few other students. One young woman, Kate Blackwood, caught his fancy. It was love at first sight. However, she was not of noble blood (but, rather, the daughter of a banker) and his father forbade him from starting an illicit relationship with her. The affair carried on for a few years and spanned several countries (even continents), but Monty was called home one winter to sort out his sick father’s affairs. The old man had been diagnosed with cancer, but Lord Rupert Fiske was a tough, old thing and had really caught wind of Monty and Kate’s affair. The tumor was benign. Furious, Monty left his father’s bedside to return to the expedition and Kate. When he did, he and Kate picked up right where they left off. Spring came, and with it, too, came surprises. Late one night in the Cambodian rainforest, Kate announced to him that she was six weeks along with Monty’s child. Ecstatic, Monty rushed to make wedding plans in a small, nearby village. To elope was the only option. Unfortunately, the summer of the wedding, Kate was diagnosed with Malaria and succumbed to it quickly. Monty was devastated at the loss of his fiancé and unborn son. Monty returned to England, where Kate’s body was buried. Depressed, twenty four year old Monty took to drinking, women, and sport, but nothing eased the pain. Over his shoulder, his father nagged and nagged at him to pull his life together and do something about it. Desperate that his son not squander the family fortune on such frivolous things, Rupert arranged for Monty (under Bates’ supervision) to go on an archaeological dig in China, Japan, and South Korea. The trip would take three years and hopefully take Monty’s mind off of everything. It did.
While on this trip, he discovered Tai Sheng Pek Kwar, and, fascinated by the idea of unlimited power, Monty began filching documents and artifacts for his own. In a way, Tai Sheng Pek Kwar—and the mystical sect of Buddhism it followed—saved Monty from his destructive habits. His passions, his angers, his tempers could be released through meditation and channeled with every swift punch, kick, and flip. Already a physical zealot (Growing up, Monty played rugby, polo, soccer, and any other sport he could), Monty disciplined himself to learning kung fu. He hired a few tutors, every now and then, but mostly, Monty learned on his own. Until, that was, Monty found Yamanouchi Secret School for Ninjas. Sensei sensed bitterness—and potential evil—in Monty’s heart, and refused to train him, but for a price, some students were bought as instructors and sparring partners. Monty quickly surpassed his helpers in skill though, being both older and naturally stronger than they.
Bates never said a thing to Monty about it, so long as his master presented a brave face to the expedition and returned enough artifacts to the team, it was okay. Monty’s second love proved obsessive and all consuming. He was thirty when began his quest for the jade monkeys. By this point, Montgomery had been studying Tai Sheng Pek Kwar for six years, and for the following six years (total of twelve), he collected them obsessively. Rupert, as always, frowned upon the obsession, but grudgingly consented that every noble had his eccentricities. Still, he loudly complained to Monty over the phone that Monty was worried about all the wrong things and it was high time that the younger Fiske consider marriage arrangements. These conversations frequently became all out arguments and Monty’s relationship with his father was very strained. Monty was in Nepal—monkey number two—when his overbearing father finally died. For the first time, a noticeable shift in Monty’s behavior could be made. Monty was not saddened, angered, or even relieved by his father’s death. Merely annoyed by it, Monty complained quietly to Bates that this would set his plans back quite a lot if he stayed in England and hosted some sort of damned gala for the wealthy well-wishers. Funeral arrangements were mostly made over the cell phone and ceremonies lasted three days. On the last day, Monty left again for Nepal.
Now free of his father, and only heir to the Fiske fortune, Monty commissioned monkey-themed art, redecorated his castle (tearing down Rupert’s hideous hunting trophies) and expanding the library with Far Eastern texts, replacing his father’s science books with mystical tomes about ancient prophecies. All the while, Monty became more and more obsessed with his goal of gaining ultimate monkey power. He eventually came to possess three of the four statuettes, but the fourth and final idol would bring him back to Cambodia… And Monty, as loathe as he was to admit it, couldn’t go there alone. He returned to England, three monkeys in his possession and stalled. It was while he was stalling that Monty Fiske first encountered Amy Hall. He, at first, searched for an alternative way of becoming the Ultimate Monkey Master, but came across a scientific journal about genetic splicing. Curious, Monty looked more and more into it. He was turned away by one geneticist for ethical reasons. However, another geneticist was willing to splice Monty’s DNA with monkey. DNAmy (Amy Hall) was as power hungry as Monty and was more than happy to perform surgery for him—at a high price. The majority of the Fiske fortune was funneled into the experimental surgery that gave Monty monkey hands and feet. Amy expressed feelings towards Monty, which he has always denied reciprocating.
Monkey hands and feet intact, Monty couldn’t risk ruining them to gain the last of the jade monkeys, so he tricked teen hero, Kim Possible into retrieving the last statuette for him. He used the statuettes into conjunction to give himself Mystical Monkey Powers, but by a fluke, the power was also transferred to Ron Stoppable, buffoon extraordinaire and Monty’s (now Monkey Fist’s) arch-foe. Since then, a power struggle between Stoppable and Monkey Fist ensued. However, it was Stoppable’s adopted sister, Hana—or The Han—that brought about Monkey Fist’s demise. To capture and defeat the Han, Monkey Fist took to following the dark path of Yono the Destroyer. However, the Yono tricked Monkey Fist into trading places and, much like a dark genie, Monkey Fist had all the cosmic power of the universe… and an itty bitty living space. Trapped in a stone casing, Monkey Fist was freed by an ambitious—but foolhardy – young ninja-school dropout. Now he is back, looking to seek revenge on the Stoppable family.
Rp Sample:
Stiff. Oh, damn he was stiff. And sore. But his finger twitched and Monty was moving. He balled his fist and slowly unfurled it. He turned his neck and felt—heard—the sweet crack of his bones. Oh… Oh… Oh…!
The simple pleasure of being alive had been something he’d taken for granted. Completely and totally for granted. But now, as he breathed for the first time in months… a year, almost, every second was sweeter than the last.
“Ahem.”
Monty looked. In front of him, a young man, clad in ninja garb was looking at him.
“I am the Yono,” Monty said, his voice surprising to his own ears. Deep. Rich. Powerful. He’d taken its sound for granted before… Never again. “You wish to follow the path of the Yono?”
The gi-clad youth folded his arms. Monty, quirked an eyebrow. Silence ensued.
“Well… You did awaken me. And I ]am the Yono.”
“You speak Japanese like a foreigner,” the youth said at long last.
Monty rolled his eyes. The Yono before him had been a talking monkey, for God’s sake. What had this man expected? The same fancy light show Monty had gotten? Did he feel wronged that Monty was the Yono? Hell, this kid could be the Yono instead for all Monty cared. He wanted his revenge. He wanted his freedom. And he was not going to let himself be turned to stone again.
“Do you need proof, nonbeliever?” Monty asked.
“You cannot be the Yono. It is not for you—or any outsider.”
“Look, boy, you have unearthed me. I still have the power of the Yono and without an order to follow, I can do whatever I please with my powers. It’s very… unwise of you to question my status as the Yono.”
“You are not the True Yono.”
Is this imbecile ever going to shut up?
Monty glowered, focused his energy, and the ninja youth froze in his spot. Without an order to follow, Monty had his own free will and a frozen ninja-statue to take his place. He was free. Free!
And yet, the mark of the Yono was still etched into his hand…
The Yono was free. Monkey Fist was free. Monty was free. He could now take his revenge… and nothing could stop him from obtaining the weapon. Not Yamanouchi. Not Stoppable. Nothing.
Hunching over onto all fours like a monkey and ran off into the blood-red, setting sun.
