Unusual Familiar Request: Monkey

As Miyuka has said in the OOC Channel, a 'Monkey' is not listed as a possible Familiar, so I'm writing this to request one (only if it's possible!). Initially, I went under the impression that monkeys aren't a thing in Belariath because they're also listed as one of the animals you CANNOT buy from the General Store (http://belariath.com/shops/gs/menagerie.html); then I went under the mindset that it might have something to do with the fact that 'evolution' is not a thing in the RP because of all of the magic (humans not being 'evolved monkeys' and such).

But as Allivia pointed out: there IS a word in the vulpani language that is used as an insult to humans:
<•Allivia> Not quite an angel... aza`tan (ah-zah-TAHN): "ape-person"; an extremely racist insult for humans

And then there have been mentions of gorillas being in Dethsiris (though haven't been seen ICly yet).

Now I'm unsure if I have to make a BIG write-up about a monkey (particularly I'm hoping to get Abby a pygmy marmoset), but if I must, I suppose I will.

But for now, I would like to see how far this request can go!

I'm leery ... that said, a creature like a marmoset (which is not that large and does seem to be a little apart from the 'run of the mill' monkey/ape family) might be possible.

They could interact playing in Dethsiris in ffrp taming or interacting, but not bring them back as pets?

That way they get to use them in story-line but not own them.???????
