He originates from the same world as my orc and is proficient with magic, he likes doing risky things in the name of fun and adventure, including visiting other worlds by opening portals between dimensions and different timelines. He arrived on modern day earth and ended up getting stuck here and can't return home for a long while. Speaking of which, the portal he opened happened to lead to Scotland, more specifically he stepped through the portal into a small tourist town called Peebles.

His original name was "Benjamin Tremor" since in the past his family were known for being incredible warriors, but he didn't like that his surname was derived from combat so he tried coming up with a new one and landed on the somewhat goofy surname of "Partal" which is literally just the word "portal" with a letter swapped, he's not very good at coming up with name ideas evidently.

The spell he uses to open portals requires a dense form of magic crystal to serve as a focus, but since our earth is severely lacking in ambient mana, it doesn't have any of those crystals and thus he can't get back home right now. Being an anthro gorilla in a world devoid of anthros, he was initially chased by the government for a while and was eventually captured. After some interviews and generic testing though (as well as a forceful display of his magical abilities when they cornered him) he was released. In order to avoid any potential disasters from letting such an oddity roam free, the Scottish government decided to give Benjamin a house to stay in, mainly so they could keep an eye on him and because they feared if he had nowhere to stay he would take someone elses home by force, which Benji would never actually even consider.

Now he has a small bungalow to himself and lives close to Edinburgh, on the outskirts of the city. Obviously he is the source of much curiosity and concern for a lot of people in the area but also has plenty of admirers (because furries are a thing and as a result plenty want to get it on with him.) He's living a chill life for now while working to get back home. He's slowly working on creating artificial magic crystals so he can get back to his own realm, by pouring his own mana into a large chunk of quartz he managed to snag. It'll take a few years to finish though so he's taking his time to enjoy the local food and nightlife.

Appearance: He looks like a standard anthro gorilla, namely a silverback. He lacks any unusual colours on his fur or skin, mainly having black fur and very dark grey skin. He has a three pronged triangle tattoo on his chest, done with white ink since his skin is dark. (I will be uploading a reference in my scraps section.) He has two scars above his eyebrow from a canine anthro's claws due to a past incident I will mention below. His eyes are a bright purple colour, though this is not hir original/natural eye colour and is the result of him changing it with cosmetic magic. (For anyone curious, the exact hex code for the shade of purple is #A020F0.) Another change he did with the transformative cosmetic spells was giving himself a tail. He brought an anthro spider monkey back to his place one time and was surprised when the guy used his prehensile tail to grab Benji's junk during the deed, this was enough to convince the silverback that he wanted one himself. Another notable freature is that Benji has a pretty hefty belly, not quite a ball belly but not a saggy belly either, a rounded gut with some firmness to it but just as much squish. He is capable of altering his appearance with magic but doesn't like doing anything too drastic, mostly sticking to changing the size of his belly and/or muscles and changing small things like his eye colour.

Personality: He is laid back and easy going for the most part, loves the simple pleasures in life and experiencing new things in new places. He is friendly and open minded, always keeping people's boundaries in mind while also making his own clear. Despite being chill and relaxed most of the time like when having a conversation, Benji can be really excitable sometimes, especially when trying new things. Once he gets riled up about something he can be pretty reckless, throwing caution to the wind in a lot of cases. Granted he still tries to not put others in danger if they don't want to join him.

In the bedroom he is a switch with a usually gentle and tender demeanor but depending on the situation and his mood might become more rough and forward with his advances. He is open to a lot of kinks and likes to try new things but does have limits. His interests include:Regular sex stuff like anal, oral, frotting and hand jobs, musk, vore, rimming, watersports, using magic during sex, transformation, cuddling, absorption, merging, light bondage, roleplay, feet/hand stuff, massage, power play

The origin of his scar: The claw marks are from an incident where he hooked up with a canine anthro and asked if he could eat the guy, being very into vore and thinking the guy looked tasty, but the dog misunderstood Benji, thinking when he said "eat" he meant eating the guy's ass. Things started off with some normal sex stuff then when Benji opened his maw and tried to push the canine's head inside, the dog freaked out and panicked. He squirmed around which came as a shock to Benji and made him freeze up for a moment, the canine swiped at Benji's face and cut open his eyebrow with two of his claws. After this Benji pulled back, promptly used a spell to seal the wound and tried to talk things out with the guy. After they both calmed down and Benji explained the situation, they realised the misunderstanding, after which the canine felt bad about the wound and offered to let Benji plow him as hard as he wanted as a way of apologising, which the gorilla happily accepted. After the incident, despite knowing a spell that could easily heal the wound leave no trace of it, Benji decided to let it heal the normal way, so the scar would be a constant reminder for him to be open and clear with his partners, making sure everyone involved knows what is happening and is comfortable with it.

The meaning behind his tattoo: As Benji lives life there are three central things that he cares about most and he got this tattoo to represent those three pillars. Food, Sex and Sleep. The first and last are basic necessities for living but beyond that Benji takes great pleasure in finding good food, actively seeking it out and exploring to try new kinds of snacks and meals he has never had before, opening himself to food of all qualities, prices and sources, not being snobby about it and only going off how good something tastes. As for sleep, while again it is a basic need, Benji values his sleep more than most and goes out of his way to make sure he is as comfortable as possible before getting some shuteye. This extends to his partners as well, whenever he has someone in his bed, Benji likes to hold them close and will even contort himself into strange positions or use magic to make sure that both him and his company are equally comfortable. The last pillar, sex, is self explanitory. While not a basic need for survival, it is something Benji does for fun and fulfilment, he couldn't see himself living a happy life without being able to fuck in some capacity. He has varied sexual interests and will often ask people what they are into, searching for new kinks and fetishes to try. That being said, he does have some hard limits which he makes very clear whenever they are brought up. His tattoo is a symbol of these three core life values for him, each prong of the triangle representing one of the three and he had the tattoo done on his chest, directly in front of his heart as a way of showing that he keeps these concepts "close to heart" as it were.

Some quotes from Benji:
When asked by a black cat in a tavern about his tattoo and what it means Benji said "What's my tattoo mean? It represents the three most important things in life. Food, sex and sleep. No matter where I am, as long as I can get those then I'm one happy monkey!" This was said with a grin on his face and a hearty guffaw afterwards.

When buying some new clothes, the tailor asked about Benji's scar, worried it would conflict with the outfit, to which Benji said "Oh, my scar? Yeah, one time I was hooking up with this dog I met in another realm, asked if I could eat him and he happily agreed but apparently he thought I meant I wanted to eat his ass. Dude freaked the fuck outout when pushed his snout into my maw and swiped at my face. Let me rail him after to say sorry though~" The tailour was very embarrassed to hear such a story and finished the rest of her work without asking any more questions.

Something he said to a random guy at a night club on earth while decently drunk. "Not gonna lie, I really like this world. Being the only anthro on a planet of humans is pretty fun! Plus it means I'm the only option for folks who like apes and furs, hehe~ You oughta seen when I set up that 'Grindr' thing, just about every guy in a ten mile radius was asking to meet up with me." After this conversation, the guy he was talking to went back to Benji's place with him and the two were up until dawn.


I don't currently have any art for Benji but I plan to change that next month (from when I posted this, will edit once I have some.) Benji will be available for RPs going forward, granted that doesnt mean I'm suddenly going to RP more frequently. If anyone has any questions about him feel free to ask, I love coming up with new lore for my OC's.
