Ickley
Bognostraclum is of course, the MAVO gate keeper, there
to remind you of, and quote verse from, the MAVO handbook - including
such rules as "Applications for MAVO membership accepted only during
Membership Drives". He usually starts out his tirade by giving the
exact chapter and paragraph of the rule he's about to quote. I think
everyone has probably worked for or with someone a lot like Ickley.
Ickley's character didn't have a lot of depth, the farthest
we got into his character was his crankyness to MAVO members about
rules and regulations and his sudden change to enthusiastic MAVO
patriot if Quellor was around- "Yes Your Mightyness!"
Ickley was pretty much slapstick and rightfully so. We don't know
anything about his past, what species he is, or where in Grundo his
kind hails from, and episodes where he appeared, which were usually in
clusters and few and far between, usually featured him for only a few
seconds, but the humor he brought to the series to me is irreplacable.
A monster who clearly takes his job to heart, he wasn't very fond of
losing it late in the series, when a MAVO shakeup saw Quellor
imprisoned and Tweeg (And LB at one point) become Supreme Opressors of
MAVO.
There isn't much more to say about the MAVO member we most love to
hate, and if there was, I'm sure there's a paragraph somewhere in the
MAVO handbook strictly forbidding me to do so, under threat of "severe"
penalty.
