Koko Lore Part 1
Lore of Kokoritus Bartholomew the 3rd, a.k.a. Koko
In the twilight between mundane life and cosmic mystery lives Kokoritus Bartholomew the 3rd, affectionately (and more efficiently) known as Koko. A 30-something-year-old bald man with a strikingly conical head, Koko is often mistaken for just another quirky face in the crowd—until you scratch the surface of his bizarre double life.
By day, Koko works a regular desk job at a nondescript tech firm, where he troubleshoots buggy software with the same intensity he brings to boss battles. But when 5 o’clock hits, and the sun dips behind the horizon, Koko sheds his office persona like a cloak—and steps into realms beyond comprehension.
A Gamer with a Gift
To the casual observer, Koko is a gamer through and through. His apartment is a fortress of RGB lights, vintage consoles, energy drink cans, and an ever-growing collection of legendary gear—both digital and mystical. But his gaming obsession is more than escapism—it’s training. The countless hours spent honing reflexes and mastering arcane storylines have uniquely prepared him for the magical quests that often find him rather than the other way around.
The Lab Beneath the Laundry Room
Unbeknownst to even his closest coworkers, beneath his modest suburban home lies a secret laboratory powered by an ancient techno-magic core salvaged from a pocket dimension. Here, Koko has achieved what the greatest minds of science and sorcery barely dreamed of: cloning himself.
The success? A single, fully functional clone named Kokorion, who handles tedious errands, logs into work meetings on his behalf, and sometimes tanks dungeons when Koko needs to go AFK.
The failures? Many.
A gallery of unsettlingly malformed clones—some with extra fingers, some that speak only in encrypted memes, and one that insists it's a raccoon named Dennis—now reside in containment pods or roam the lower chambers. Koko tries not to talk about Clone #7, who developed sentience, learned shadow magic, and escaped into the multiverse.
The Adventures Beyond
Summoned by prophecies, rogue mages, or ancient game cartridges found at midnight thrift shops, Koko traverses worlds beyond the veil—desert kingdoms ruled by glitch-spirits, floating islands shaped like polyhedral dice, and forgotten catacombs accessible only through broken vending machines. His cone-shaped head, far from a genetic quirk, acts as a reality conductor—drawing cosmic currents that let him warp space, decode enchanted relics, and occasionally microwave pizza rolls with his thoughts.
The Man, the Myth, the Meme
Among the magical community and elite gamer circles, Koko is a legend whispered in forums and spellbooks alike. Some say he once debugged a cursed timeline with a keyboard made of phoenix feathers. Others believe he’s a reincarnation of an ancient cyber-sorcerer who invented speedrunning.
But to those who truly know him, Koko is a man caught between worlds: a bald cone-headed wizard of the modern age, juggling spreadsheets, save files, and sorcerous prophecies with the same tired grace of someone who’s seen too much—but wouldn’t trade it for anything.
